    Any reason why the Diono Cambria is hard to find right now?

    I'd been looking to buy one (Canada) and there aren't a lot of places with them in stock and no one seems to have the coloured covers. They're all on sale right now so would be good to purchase, but always seems a bit suspicious when everyone is out of stock of something. Was wondering if they...

    Suggestions for a 5 year old (in Canada)?

    I haven't bought a car seat in about 5 years so hoping for some feedback/suggestions :D My almost 5 year old is in a Nautilus that was previously used by her sister and is expiring in under a year. She is still harnessed and average height. When the back part of the Nautilus expires, she...

    legal minimum for booster seat in Canada

    I know it is 40 lbs, but I thought there was a 4 years requirement as well but can't find it. It is for a borderline case in case of emergency, not regular use, but I wanted to make sure they'd be legal still. Thanks.

    Where has the TruFit? Sales on TF or MR?

    A friend was looking but can't find it online in any stores. I haven't been looking for seats since last summer so I'm out of the loop ;) Any sales on the TF or MR at the moment? Thanks so much!

    Booster suggestions?

    Trying to decide what to do regarding an upcoming trip to see the in-laws(we're all within Canada!) and thinking a booster for my five year old might make life more manageable.

    Rate of injury comparison across countries?

    Hi. I was wondering if anyone knew if there was data available that showed differences in rates of injuries in children across different countries and how that correlates with laws/standard practice in terms of car seat usage. I know it is very hard to compare due to differences in types of...

    Wondering if anyone else has run into this or has any ideas! We are currently using a TF FF for my 4 year old, she is around 42 lbs, 42".

    Any tech in central Illinois want GN for demo??

    Not sure where to post, please advise if there is a better place to post. We were in an accident :( So I need to get rid of our Nautilus and thought I'd just make an attempt to see if someone could use it for demo purposes first. We're in Champaign, IL. Thanks!

    Canadian rules for child in a passenger seat

    A friend was asking and I don't know as much about the Canadian rules, I explored the US ones because of potentially needing to put my daughter in a moving van with us ;) Are there laws on when a child can go in the front seat? All the recommendations say to keep children under 12 in the back...

    Mazda 5 couple of questions

    Hi! We recently got a Mazda 5. My daughter is in a Nautilus behind the passenger seat. The manual mentions to have the middle seats all the way back if there is a car seat installed on them. If we are using the back seats ever, that isn't especially practical since that leaves almost no room...
