    UAS Buckle cracked on corner

    I was helping install my friend's Radian, and while we were tightening it, the plastic corner of the UAS buckle was pushed against the plastic of the belt path, and a little piece broke off the corner. We've called Diono, but they haven't called back yet. I'm wondering whether this would affect...

    Best second RF seat?

    I need to get a second convertible for my husband's truck, and I'm not sure which one is the best choice! I already have a Radian as my primary seat, so I will be wanting something a bit cheaper. I'm thinking My Ride, True Fit, or maybe a MA? It will be 3-across with a FF True Fit and Frontier.

    Question about new regulations

    Ok, so I've been reading a bit about the new regulations and such. I just wanted to ask exactly what will happen in regards to "old" seats? We are currently using a Snugride 35 that is pretty much brand new. My daughter won't be out of it until the Spring, so does that mean I will have to...

    New spare seat

    So DD just turned 3, and is about 33-34 lbs, depending on the day. She rides RF in a TrueFit in DH's truck. Now I'm having a dilemma. I can't decide whether I should buy another new seat that can RF to 40lbs, or just FF in his truck once she reaches the weight limit. I'd rather keep her RF, but...

    Bringing strollers across the border

    I have a question about bringing a stroller across the US/Canada border. Ok, so the UppaBaby Vista is the stroller that I have decided to buy for this baby. I was at Bo Bebe checking it out, although I had planned to get it online on a US website and get it shipped to friend's US mailing...

    True Fit issues

    I think that I once read a thread about this, and now I'm having the same problem. My DD keeps crying if we ever put her in her TF for long periods of time(1 hour+). Because the seat is a spare in DH's truck, the only time we ever use it is for long drives. She always says that her bum hurts...

    Going to Disney World

    We just booked a trip to Disney World for February. Once we get there, we will not need any carseats, we have shuttle service everywhere. However, I'm trying to decide what to do on the plane. My oldest DD will be 5 1/2, so I'm not concerned about her, but my youngest will be less than a month...

    Beginning booster training

    Ok, so I just got DD a TB. I've just put it together(it seems so flimsy!), and in a couple of weeks, once she turns 5, I told her that she would be able to start riding in it for super short drives. So now I'm just curious about the actual process of booster training her. Do I lock the seatbelt...

    Turbobooster vs. Monterey

    I want to start booster training dd soon, and I am debating between the Turbobooster and the Monetery. I cannot try the Monterey, no one around here carries it. I'm wondering which one is more likely to fit a 41lb, 44inch 5 year old. I'm assuming the Turbobooster is the one that has the more...

    Isofix vs. UAS

    Is the Isofix kind of the same as our UAS here? Can you use UAS in a vehicle with Isofix, or is that strictly not allowed?

    Installing MA

    Alrighty, so we are flying to Europe on Saturday, and I am taking an MA as a seat for DD2. I never installed it with a seatbelt when we were using it, so I brought it out to practice yesterday. I have a couple of questions. Ok, so does the seatbelt go over or under the foam? After I got the seat...

    RSTV

    So we are leaving for Europe in less than 2 weeks(eek!)and I just took my RSTV out to familiarize myself with it. I've been reading over the instructions, and I'm just wondering about the seatbelt. I'm not sure if they will lock or not, or exactly which vehicles we'll be using, but ARE you...

    Booster training?

    DD will be 5 at the end of August, and still has one slot left on her Frontier. I plan on keeping her harnessed until she outgrows it, but I also want her to be able to ride in a booster if needed. When do you start booster training, and how do you start the whole process?

    Disney cruise?

    We have just booked a Disney Cruise to the Western Caribbean for Feb. 2011. It's super early in the planning stages obviously, but naturally I'm already thinking about carseats. Lol. We are flying up the day before and staying at a hotel right by the airport(Orlando International). They have...

    Bracing a Radian

    Does anyone by chance know whether it is ok to brace a Radian in a Yukon? We have a 2008 Yukon XL, and I have read and re-read the manual, and I can't seem to find anything about this. Perhaps I may have missed it somewhere, but I'm not sure so I figured I'd ask.

    D-Rings

    Is it ok to use a Britax D-Ring when installing a Radian? I can switch it, but it was a pain to get it on there so if I can avoid that it would be fab:D

    Winter coats and boosters

    I was thinking about this today and wondering(not that I'll need to know for quite a while), when children use boosters, is there rules about winter coats? I was just thinking because I know that I don't take my winter jacket off in the vehicle, so I was wondering what the rules are about it for...

    RSTV for travel

    I just purchased a RSTV for my daughter to use in the summer, when we fly to Slovakia. I am just wondering, to those that use it, or have used it, how was your child afterwards, getting back into their regular carseat? DD will be a month shy of 5, and I am very nervous about her response to...

    No chestclip?

    I was just looking around the Toys R Us website, and I stumbled upon this travel system. http://www.toysrus.ca/product/index.jsp?productId=3868052&cp=2582970.2582970&parentPage=family I was really surprised to see that the carseat has no chest clip. Anyways, just wanted to share.
