    Will rigid latch on Clek Oobr work in a Ford Expedition 2017 EL?

    I had a rigid latch booster from Clek a while back that we could not get to fit into our Honda Pilot (I don't remember the exact problem - perhaps it did fit in one of the seats, but it was not the seat that that child needed to be in due to other kids' needs, etc....I can't recall). I returned...

    Need convertible seat for 1 year old - round 2

    Hello, So I bought a Clek Fllo for my 1 year old and went on a trip and he was so uncomfortable. :( He is right at the cutoff for the 'infant thingy' and also his head is a strange shape in that it is sort of bulbous in the back, and I think the way the headrest sits is just right where it...

    BMW 320i Xdrive versus audi A5 AWD 2013-ish

    Hello, My dh is looking for a new to him used car. He may be having a mid life crisis as he has determined he wants a luxury type car, sedan (due to gas mileage) and AWD because we live in SLC and he goes skiing a lot. He is looking at around 2013 because he can get that for the low 20s which...

    Can't install Clek Oobr in 3rd row of Pilot

    Ugh, I'm so sad about this! I ended up getting a Clek Oobr for my 6 year old that I found on sale - last one. It was still a lot of $$ though, way more than I should spend, but I got really hung up on the safe fire retardant thing and ordered it. But it really needs to go in the 3rd row...

    clek oobr - will the rigid latch work in my car?

    I am kind of interested in the Clek Oobr for my 6 year old. It would need to go in the third row of my pilot though - preferably on the passenger side. I am looking for measurements, etc. - but am a bit confused about the rigid latch and how I can know for sure if it will work there. I've...

    Silly to get a Nextfit for a 3.5 year old ?

    I was originally trying to decide between a few different Gracos for my 3.5 year old, 36", 33lb boy. But I saw a deal where I can get a Nextfit for $239 plus a $100 gift certificate comes with it (someone posted here about this - at BB&B). so after tax that is around $160. I'm tempted but...

    Chicco Kidfit - can you wash the whole cover?

    I am looking at this seat and my daughter really likes the pattern print of the zip cover - but can you remove the rest of the cover for washing, or just the zipped part? Thanks!

    Is there a safety difference when there is a large price difference?

    I'm debating a few car seat purchases right now. I got some great suggestions in another thread about needing to fit 4 into my pilot. I am looking at the britax frontier vs. graco nautilus for my 3 year old. Is there a safety difference in comparisons like this or just features, etc. ? I'm...

    Hello, I'm new here and hoping for some advice. My DS is 6.5, about 49" and 55lbs or so. He is currently in a Radian, but I recently saw some discussions about whether or not a 5 pt harness is really safer for kids after a certain age/size. So I'm thinking about just going to a booster for...
