    Question Three across in a 2005 Ford Escape??

    We might be using an '05 Ford Escape on a trip and then driving it home. I need three across though. I have a rearfacing 2 year old in a Radian. I have a 9 year old who could use a backless turbo booster or Spectrum. Then I have a 6.5 year old who is usually in a Frontier. I'm guessing that will...

    Question Any pics of Roundabout G4 with older rearfacers?

    I am contemplating getting this seat but child is 38" and 2.5. I'm not sure torso, but curious if there would be any room to grow in this seat. Anyone have pics?

    Click connect 40...yay or nay?

    I love the look of the seat and the adjustable harness and SIP. But is it a good seat? Is it heavy on its own?

    New click tighht marathon

    Saw the new Britax marathon today at BRU. Has anyone else noticed that there is little side impact protection for the head on the marathon once it's harness is raised. The line for Max shoulder height was about 3-4" from the top of the shell and that headrest is just flimsy fabric and padding. I...

    How do I mention seat safety?

    I started watching a 3 month old, they gave me a new snugride 22 (rear adjust) to use and said they had one from a relative to use. It's a Safeseat (my favorite) but expired. How do I kindly tell them it's not safe without looking like I am snoopy or bossy? She comes in that seat, I use my seat...

    Maestro on an airplane?

    How is the Maestro on a plane? Does it allow for the tray to come down for the child to use it? Would you use the Maestro, Roundabout 50 or a Marathon (new gen).

    What is proper use of no back boosters?

    Is there an age or just height and weight. Does Minnesota have a proper use clause?

    Anything new on the horizon?

    It seems there are spurts of new seats but I don't know of any coming out soon. Is there? Other than a few changes to an existing seat or adding more SIP that seems to be popular these days. The few new insanely expensive infant seats don't interest me!

    MySize rattles annoyingly!

    The dang headrest rattles horribly, mostly when he's not I the seat. Ffing and second to last setting. Anyone else have this issue? Can I stick something in it to help?

    Where to find a tech

    I thought there was a section that listed techs but I can't find it on the mobile app. And I've heard horror stories of misinformed techs. Anyone recommend someone/somewhere in the NW metro area of Minnesota? Thanks!

    True Fit won't work ffing.

    Anyone have experience with a ffing true fit in captains seat of '06 grand Caravan? There's a big gap at the back and the angle of the belt path doesn't work with the angle of the seat belt stalk. I thought I had it but when he was sitting in it I could pull the whole seat loose when tightening...

    Moral dilema?

    So I have been chosen to test and review a hbb....and my oldest is not quite 4.5 years old (though he's probably the size of an average 5.5 year old). It just says I have to evaluate it. I would never recommend anyone use a hbb for a 4 year unless they were too big for a 5 pt harness. My 4.5...

    Question MySize cracked foam

    5 seats in Caravan '06

    I want to transport my sister and her kids along with mine. If it doesn't work we'll just drive separate but I love a challenge! Have an 8 year old in a booster (may fit harnessed, he's pretty little), two 4 year olds (would love to keep mine rfing I could maybe get hers to rf too but doubt it)...

    Which seats to travel with?

    We will be flying and renting a midsize car soon. Kids are 4y3m and 22months currently. Both are rfing. I can't decide if I want to keep ds1 rfing on the trip because it would mean the hassle of bringing the radian boot and probably the angle adjuster. Seats: 2 radian xtsl Roundabout 50 True...
