    Parkway SG, or Monterey?

    My son currently rides in a Britax Parkway SG. He likes it enough, but has a lot of trouble buckling it on his own (I usually end up doing it for him). We originally tried the probooster, but it had tipping issues, but he preferred how he felt more 'hugged' in that seat vs the parkway we ended...

    Are most seats easy to install in a 2002 Honda Odyssey?

    I'm going to be getting a 2002 Honda Odyssey either tonight, or tomorrow. I have a Diono Radian RXT, and a Britax Parkway. I'm guessing the booster will be easy, but are radians easy to install in them? I also have my nephew regularly (he's in a Nautilus), so I'm curious about that seat, too...

    Which is safer?

    On another thread, someone mentioned checking the car manual to make sure it allows for locking the seat belt (booster). I knew that recaro doesn't allow it which is one of the reasons we sent our probooster back and got a parkway. My son has sensory issues and locking the seat belt is a must...

    I got two expired seats "off the road" today!

    This morning before work I went out to go to some garage sales. At one of the last garage sales I went to, there was a grandmother selling two very expired seats (for $30!!!). Having actually been kicked off of someone's property before (yard sale) for politely telling them their seats were...

    Question Seat placement in vehicle with only two kids

    I know middle is safest and I can easily get my daughter's RF RN80 there with my son's parkway outboard (and thats how it currently is). What I'm wondering is would that set up be much more preferred over having both kids outboard? I'm asking because with the set up now, my son cannot buckle...

    What should I do about manu date?

    I ordered a britax parkway off of amazon.com and got it today. The date on the seat is 06/10 :( I called amazon and asked if there was anything that could be done aside from returning and then buying another one in hopes of it having a later date. The lady tried arguing with me saying that the 6...

    Booster suggestions?

    Any suggestions are welcomed. We have went through 2 graco TB and somehow the Styrofoam has broken on the same head wing both times. After the second time (about a week ago), I ordered a Recaro Probooster. It was originally outboard behind the passenger seat next to a RF myride and then in the...

    How do you buy replacement covers for SK radian?

    My dd is now in a radian 80sl but it's the black and gray cover. I know it's not a big deal but I wanted to find her a girly cover (she was in an alma myride until she figured out how to escape). I checked the website but they only have covers for the new diono seats. Are they interchangeable...

    Does graco make a different chest clip for myride65? 20 month old escaping!

    My 20 month old daughter unbuckled her myride 65 today and also got an arm out. A few days ago i noticed she was playing with the buckle (we went to seaworld and I wasn't driving and was in the back with the kids. I constantly tried telling her to leave it alone. I think it drove her to be...

    Joovy kooper, baby jogger city mini, or neither?

    Anyone want to make some recommendations? I have a 20 month old daughter and my stroller is on it's last leg (due to me forgetting I had it leaned up against the back of my SUV (no kid in it) and sort of running it over). I'm hesitant about spending money on a stroller when my daughter is...

    Will recaro probooster puzzle with rear facing myride65?

    Hello :) My son was using a graco turbobooster but somehow, twice in 6 months, the foam has cracked (I plan on calling graco and informing them). Ive given up on tb's and ordered a probooster last night from amazon. After ordering I realized it might not puzzle well with my daughter's myride...

    How do I say something to someone on FB?

    I've never really paid attention when people post pictures of their kiddos on FB in the past. This morning someone posted a picture of their 3-4 month old in his car seat. He was in a thicker hoody, the straps were practically off of his shoulders and you could see them completely not snug, and...

    How do I secure my stroller/groceries, etc?

    I've been doing really well with keeping everything out of my SUV lately (with the exception of a few very soft toys for dd, a blankie for her, and flash cards for my ds) but am still unsure about what to do with dd's stroller and also groceries/bags when I go shopping? Any suggestions? Right...

    vent- I'm about the throw my car seats across my driveway

    Originally my ds (5) was FF outboard drivers side in a radian and my dd (almost 9 mon) was in the center RF in a myride. After looking in my manual and finding out my vehicle does not have tether anchors (but I can request the kits for free and nicely ask my mechanic neighbor to install them), I...

    Radian crotch strap?

    Is there a longer crotch strap available for the radian 80sl than what comes with the seat? I just got my 5 year old this seat two days ago and since he first sat in it he has been complaining of his privates hurting. I called/emailed SK and am waiting on a response but figured I would check...

    What seats should be where?

    I just got my son a Radian 80SL today and I installed it FF outboard behind the driver seat. My daughter is RF in a Myride in the center and every other Saturday I usually have my nephew and most of the time we all go to the park. My nephew is in a scenera (I think? lol) and with our current...

    WWYD?!

    For the last month my "used to be perfect" high back boostered 5 year old has started not sitting properly in his seat. He's leaning forward (even with me locking the belt), trying to be a contortionist and get out of the seat belt and trying to unbuckle it while driving. I have limited my...

    Question about expiration date on seats?

    I had an Evenflo Discovery 5 infant seat for my daughter for a few months. I sold it on CL (I washed the cover once- the day before I sold it and followed the directions, never touched the straps, handled the seat with care, and it was never in an accident) about a month ago advertising it's 8...

    Would this work? re: flying...

    I know that the safest way to fly is by purchasing a seat for every single one of us but at this time we cannot afford it and haven't been back home in (almost) two years to visit (by the time we visit this summer, it will have been two years since we moved). I REALLY wanted to be able to bring...
