    No-rethread harness seats currently available?

    I just bought a Graco Contender 65 for $140 (rollback) at Walmart. I do like it a lot, and I would like another but even on rollback, $140 is too much. Are there any other cheaper no-rethread (I would like a seat for DH's car, and it would be used for 4 kids of different sizes, etc.) seats I'm...

    Help! Five kids 6 and under in a 2000 Sienna

    We just had two new foster girls placed with us yesterday on virtually no notice at all. With our own 3, here is what we have to fit in our 7-passenger Sienna (all 5 girls are over the 90% for height) 6 y/o, 45 lbs (ours, in a Nautilus) 3 y/o, 39 lbs (almost 4 y/o) 3 y/o, 33 lbs (ours, still...

    Help with installing Harmony Defender

    We've had a Harmony Defender in the back seat, driver's side of a '99 Honda Civic for about a month and had a great install. That door has broken and won't open from inside or out so I went out tonight to switch it to the passenger side and CANNOT for the life of me, get it installed remotely...

    Anyone have a TRU or BRU coupon?

    Does anyone have a 20% off Toys R Us coupon they aren't planning on using? I know someone suggested I ask on Facebook, but I don't have a FB acct. :o I also might have one of those recent Target baby mailers with a coupon code for 15% off a Nextfit, too, if anyone needs it. I don't *think* I...

    Harmony Defender questions

    I bought a Harmony Defender last night to see if it might work in some kind of 3-across, though I haven't tested that aspect out yet. Just in trying it out, though, I have a couple questions. 1) Do you HAVE to have it top tethered? Our '99 Civic doesn't have that capability that I know of...

    3-across in a '99 Civic--possible without 3 Radians??

    I need a new plan for 3 across in DH's car as DD3 is about to grow out of her Keyfit30. I think I'm good for DD2 and DD3, but DD1 is 4.5 yrs old, 42 lbs and 45" tall. I'd like her to stay harnessed for awhile longer but have to fit 3 seats across in a '99 Civic. We are hoping to have a Radian...

    Yet another "Graco three amigos" question...

    What IS the difference between the Size4me, Headwise, and My Size 70 seats? I've used the search feature on here (for "Size4me") and read every review I can find on various websites for all three...and keep getting really conflicting information. Even Graco's website is confusing and...

    Best Deal on Graco Size4me?

    I know the Headwise and MySize70 are similar, too, so really any of them, I think. Anyone know of good sales, or at least know what a *great* price would be, so I can snag one if I ever find it that low? Thanks!

    How often are there coupon codes for Just Kids Store?

    I was able to buy a Radian 100 a few months ago for $140-ish dollars because they were on sale, plus there was a coupon code for $ off the sale price. I was sure I'd end up returning the seat, but we ended up loving it and I'd love another. No one else seemed all that fired up about that price...

    Which convertible seats have no-rethread adjustable harness?

    Like the Chicco Nextfit---where all you have to adjust is the headpiece, in between different sized kiddos? I know all seats have adjustable harnesses, so I'm only referring to the ones you don't have to re-thread. It would also need to fit rear-facing in the back seat of a '99 Honda Civic...

    New stickers for a Chicco Keyfit 30?

    DD3 has about outgrown our Keyfit 30 that we've used for all 3 kiddos. Its manuf. date is April '08, so I was planning to give it to my sister (it's never been in any kind of accident) but all the stickers but the one large one in Spanish (we both speak Spanish so it I never thought about it...

    Couple Radian R100 questions....

    I went ahead and bought a Radian R100 last week when they were on sale, since we're not sure if we can wait for the NextFit to come out, and I've been hating the bulk/tightening issues with our MyRide that DD2 is currently in. I watched the Diono YouTube video on installing (I read the manual...

    Are *all* seat harnesses difficult to tighten when RFing?

    I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I HATE how hard it is to tighten the strap on our MyRide 65 rear-facing. It's even starting to show some fraying along the strap. We've had it about 3.5 years, and it gets great reviews, everyone seems to love it, but we have it in a captain's chair in our...

    Is the Chicco Nextfit worth the wait?

    Our youngest just turned 8 months old yesterday and is about 19 lbs, 27". She's currently still in our Chicco Keyfit30 and has about 2.5" from the top of the shell. I just started looking into convertible seats again yesterday and saw the info on the new Chicco Nextfit, which looks awesome. I...

    CHEAPEST 3-across options for '99 Honda Civic?

    "Cheap" is the operative word here. ;) I've been doing a lot of researching the whole 3-across dilemma and absolutely everything involves a Radian, which we cannot afford right now for hubby's car, since we really won't need to put all 3 kids in there very often at all. I don't mind switching...

    Too much wiggling when installed in back seat of Sienna?

    I just tried installing our new Nautilus in the middle of the back seat of our 2000 Toyota Sienna and no matter how tight I pull the lap belt, the seat still moves well over the "inch" the manual states is safe (both side-to-side and front-to-back). Am I doing something dumb? Would it be safer...

    Does ANYONE own a Mountain Buggy Duet?

    I would love to know more about it--I've watched the Baby Gizmo video, but I've watched so many of those videos that I'm learning she never really states the "bad" so much as "minor complaints". I've read really mixed reviews, and I've heard there are some design flaws from it being such a new...

    Questions about the BJ City Elite double stroller

    Baby Gizmo says that the 2011 models with the handle brake are now 30.5 inches wide, which is wider than a standard door frame. Does anyone have a 2011 version that can talk about indoor use? (malls, offices, grocery stores, dept. store aisles, etc.) If you have an older version, I'd love to...
