    Best way to get rid of seats

    At the moment I have 4 seats sitting in my garage that need to be disposed of. I have two Marathons that are not expired, but were in an accident (I did take the covers off and gave those to friends to use as spares). I also have an older Evenflo Triumph and Graco Comfysport, both of which are...

    Britax Marathon strap question

    My oldest DD has been complaining a lot lately about the lap/crotch straps on her Marathon. They seem to leave red marks on her legs, and are causing her discomfort, especially in the summer when she is wearing shorts/dresses. Is there anything that I can put under the strap to prevent the...

    CS RF in 99 Intrigue

    I bought all new seats for my DD's a few months ago, and moved the old ones to DH's car as spares. I should mention that 2x in the last month he drove DD1, and he has never transported DD2 in his car (we use my car if all of us are going anywhere). Nevertheless, I installed an older (05)...

    Used Jogger purchasing advice

    Okay, here's the situation. For one week twice a year there is a consignment (or Mom to Mom) sale here in my town. I am contemplating a purchase, but I want to get some advice so that I don't make a stupid impulse buy. The sale officially starts on 5/10, but there is a pre-sale day for...

    Thanks for the new addiction

    I originally came to this site to research getting new seats for my girls, and that alone has been quite costly to the pocketbook (probably $800). But I have to also thank this forum for convincing me that the Mac Volo was so awesome (and showing me great prices on 2007's), that there is a...

    Onyx vs Barrington

    I'm going to get DD2 a BLVD next week, and I want a gray seat to match car interior and DD1's GN. I live in a small town, so I've never seen one IRL. From online pic's it looks like the Barrington is plush in the middle, but I can't tell about the Onyx - what can you tell me about these fabrics?

    Scenera?

    Okay, I've nearly got the full compliment of new seats for DDs - 2 MA's in my car, a GN and soon to have a BLVD in nanny's car, and I'm washing the covers to put DD's old CS and Evenflo Triumph (the old style) in DH's car (he's managed to mostly avoid child transport the past few years because...

    Seatbelt?

    I have always installed my older DD's FF carseat using Latch. But before I lock the seat in, I always buckle the seatbelt behind the carseat. I do this because she has - on multiple occasions - grabbed the free seatbelt and "played with it". This makes me incredibly nervous, but there is not...

    I'm so impressed

    I installed the new Coomoo MA yesterday, and can I say WOW! I have NEVER had such a rock solid install, and it was super easy. DD's previous seats (EVT - not advance, wasn't available - and CS) would always have the 1 inch wiggle room no matter how tight I pulled the straps. But this seat is...

    RF Marathon?

    Got the new MA's...I've been playing with them in the house (haven't installed in the car yet). I have a question about RF MA though. My youngest DD will be 6 months old next week. I put her into the MA that she will ride in to test it out, adjust straps, and see how she fit. There were 2...

    Switching Latch connectors on MA

    I got my 2 new MA from Target today :). But they are very different from seats that I have previously used. One of the seats will be installed RF, the other will be FF. I am incredibly confused right now about the latch connectors. When the seat arrives, are the latch connectors in the RF or...

    96 Accord

    My nanny drives a 96 Accord. I have looked all over for a top tether anchor spot and can not find one - is this car too old to have a top tether anchor?

    Time to talk fashion....Marathon fasion

    Okay, after several posts, lots of back and forth, I've finally decided on which carseats I'm buying DDs. I'm getting DD#1 a Marathon and a Graco Nautilus (to replace her EFT (not advance) and Comfortsport) and DD#2 is getting 2 Marathons. So, now the next big question is....what covers...

    Too small for Regent

    I know that the Regent is advertised for kids over 1 yr and 22 lbs, but it's a big seat. I'm wondering if it's too big for my almost 3 yr old DD. I haven't had a chance to try her out in it in real life (we recently got a BRU, so I may be able to do that in the next week). In the meantime...

    Cupholder?

    Very soon here, I plan to buy my 3 yr old DD two new carseats - she has a Graco comfortsport that she is close to outgrowing and the Evenflo Triumph (not the advance, it wasn't available when I bought her carseats) which I am growing to hate more with every day. My current plan (and it changes...

    Another Britax Sale?

    I have seen several posts mentioning a big Britax sale in Feb. I am planning on buying DD#2 a Blvd. I have seen the Regal pattern on sale at Albeebaby for $224 - and while I'm not as excited about the pattern, it is a great price. Judging from past sales....will all (or most) of the patterns...
