    Question Graco Turbobooster Expiry

    It's been a long while since I have posted a question, though I still browse for info and new seats on occasion! My question: we left a Graco HB Turbobooster at the grandparents' place, and will be visiting them this winter. I do have the manual at home, have noted the 2010 DOM . I do not...

    Question TB or Compass B530C?

    I know that there have been several booster threads lately, but I have very specific questions regarding our needs, and therefore, have started a new thread. We are in the market for a new booster seat for DD (which will eventually be used by DS when he outgrows the Radian which will be in...

    Leather Monterey - Limited Availability

    I believe this was discussed on the other forums some time ago, and my apologies if it has been noted here recently: The black leather Monterey is available in Canada for a limited time: http://www.dearbornbaby.com/product.php?productid=4775&cat=54&page=1 I could see at least one error in the...

    Is it just a rumour or has anyone actually done it? Radian in overhead?

    Has anyone actually stowed a Radian in the overhead bin during a flight? I have been searching through past threads, and it is mentioned a lot, but only in one or two cases has anyone reported doing this. We are flying Alaskan again next month. In the past I have installed two Radians next to...

    Turbobooster HB vs LB - width

    I have a bit of a dilemma occuring in our secondary car, which we use most often for transporting extra kids to activities and playdates. It is a Focus wagon. I have DD and DS's Radians installed FFing. It works well because it leaves room for an adult to sit outboard. Before Christmas I...

    Question Radian XT Questions

    Wow! It's been a while since I've been on, but I have enjoyed browsing the forum to see what's new in Canadian seats. Kids are growing and our carseat configurations have changed quite a bit in the past six months. The sad news - our 33lb Marathon just expired. I wasn't completely...

    Seats available at Sear.ca

    I just picked up the new spring catalogue, and wanted to let people know that some of the new seats are available online. You'll have to check the prices, since they are usually a bit more than other retailers, but it may be convenient for people who live in rural areas that don't want to spend...

    Informative article in Today's Parent

    January 2010, pages 69-70. It quotes a member of Ontario's Ministry of Transportation Road Safety Office and promotes rear-facing after the age of one and weight of 22lbs. It also states wearing snowsuits in carseats is not recommended, and suggests alternatives. Finally, it mentions a...

    Question WWYD - XT vs XTSL?

    I was quite certain that I was going to purchase a Radian XTSL when they become available in the next month or two, but now I am having second thoughts about whether or not I actually need it, and whether I should spend the extra money when the XTs are on sale right now for $100 less. DS is...

    WWYD? FFing MA or RFing Scenera

    Due to the fact that we had a MA installed FFing in our Civic, we have had to perform a major carseat switcheroo. In our secondary car (Focus wagon), I need to install three carseats. I have a MA, Scenera, and RN. One of the children is just over 30lbs and the MAand RN only RF to 30lbs...

    2 MAs on plane?

    Gosh, it's been a really long time since I've been on, and I have a lot of "catch-up" reading to do. I do have a question that I need help with. We are booking a vacation, and I need help with seating arrangements. I have almost always used carseats on the plane, with the exception of using...

    Using a Twin Triuph to transport carseats (airport)

    I am not sure if I should be posting this question in the Car Seat Chat or the Community Member Forum. I have a bit of a problem, and I know that someone on this board could probably answer my question. In the past we have used a single stroller to transport our carseats through the airport...

    CDN Ford F250 and tether anchors

    I am asking this question for a friend, so please forgive me if some of the details are inaccurate. He drives a 1999 Ford F250 and occasionally drives his older DD to and from daycare. Apparently, it has loop tether anchors in the back. He can only see two of them (middle and passenger). I...

    Canadian Family Magazine

    I am not sure if anyone here subscribes to this particular magazine, but you will often see it in the waiting room of medical offices. Anyway, I had a chance to read through the Summer 2008 issue, and they "test drove" carseats this month. The seats tested include: Eddie Bauer Deluxe 3-in-1...

    Subaru Tribeca UAS ?

    Sorry if this has been asked recently, but I did a search and couldn't find the answer. I am asking this question for a friend. The grandparents have a Tribeca (2006?). It is a Canadian model. Does the manual allow UAS install in centre position?

    Radian manual ?

    In our prenatal carseat class we were told to read the manual three times before installing any carseat. I am very excited about our new Radian Premier. We may install it tonight. I have read the manual several times. I came across this statement which I find alarming and contrary to what I...

    CT free shipping code

    I was going to post this on one of the Radian threads, but wasn't sure if someone would see it, so I'll post it here. I signed up for the online Canadian Tire flyer, and if you do, they'll send you a free shipping code. I decided not to go with the 48lb Radian, but have a free shipping code...

    JennasMommy or anyone with a Focus and Radian?

    Sorry to call you out! We are likely going to purchase a Radian to replace our "notched" Regal Ride. Our vehicles include a 2002 Focus wagon and a 2007 Civic. It will likely be installed RFing in the centre of the Focus. I noticed on the "Successful Radian Install" thread that you noted...

    OHS carseats in Canada

    My recent thread on our JUN2005 Regal Ride with the "notches" has got me thinking.... Since we started using carseats (August 2004), I don't think I have seen an OHS carseat in a retail store in Canada. Mind you, we live in a pretty small city, and don't have a lot of selection. Do they still...

    WWYD? regarding Cosco Regal Ride

    I should have been paying attention when it hit the news about six weeks ago, but I finally checked the seat and this is what I found: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v448/PinkBundle1/?action=view&current=DSC00002.jpg...
