    Evenflo Maestro, black with pink stripe on it (can't remember the name of the cover) DOM February 2010. It's been ridden in only a handful of times (used in my husband's car). We just don't need it anymore and it's sitting around taking up space not being used! Asking $45, can arrange pickup...

    Various Scenera Installs

    I really think with practice and technique you can install the Scenera rfing in most vehicles without pool noodles or towels. On this vacation, our first car was a Hyuandai Sonata. LOVED the car. Good fuel economy, etc. If I had to buy a full-sized car I would buy one of thse in a heartbeat...

    Is my seat ok?

    On vacation and DD somehow got the spout out of her leak proof water bottle (I think her brother helped her :mad:) and totally soaked her Scenera. The cover and such is totally wet, but it'll dry. But the crotch buckle and bottom of the side harness parts were totally drenched too. I know...

    Probooster in a Sienna - tipping issues?

    I'm reading probooster reviews about the tipping and falling over. Wondering how "tippy" it is in a Sienna. If we get one, we alternate between back row and middle row, so it would need to work without tipping too much in either. Thanks!

    What exactly do they measure in rfing crash tests?

    So we know overrotation. I'm assuming also forces on the body, and how the child ramps up the seat? Anything else? Do they test the speed it rebounds into the seat?

    I'm in shock! 6 yo still fits in CA!

    My ds1, who is 6 years 3 months BARELY fits in the Complete Air still! Sat him in it for kicks today to see. It was shocking since he's almost too tall for the nautilus (he has been boostered since 4 1/2). He's always been long torsoed, outgrew the old evenflo triumph by height before he was...

    In Search Of Safeguard or Safety First Go

    I think this seat will work well for us for upcoming travels. Looking for longevity, so would like at least 4 years of life left (mainly buying it becasue dd won't fit into a travel vest until she's like 5 and I want something to hand down eventually, so this over another travel vest I think...

    Does the SG strap actually add "safety" in your opinion?

    I'm starting to think about boosters for ds2. He will be 4 in July and asked me for a booster for his birthday (wants to be like big brother). He's fairly mature, and already 40lbs, so I'm ok getting him one to use on short rides to get him used to it (and to see how mature he is in it). I...

    Wondering if anyone has called Dorel RE CA harness covers

    Just wondering if anyone knows if you can get a set of harness covers that are on the CA65 to use on the original CA? I'll call Dorel on Monday, but if anyone knows it can either save me a call or at least calm my curiousity!

    My 5 1/2 yo is almost too tall to use the Maestro as a booster!

    I tried ds1 in the maestro as a booster today. Holy cow, it's almost too short for him. I think another 1/2" of torso growth and the belt wouldn't fit properly (coming from behind shoulder). Yet, he has a good inch of harness height! I'll have to get pics when they get home sometime (on a...

    2 kids, short van ride on tour...

    My boys are going with their dad and grandpa this weekend near Grand Coulee Dam. They plan to do the 1 hour tour. Per the info on the web site: So my ds's are 3 and 5 1/2. It sounds like the van portion is very short, and I would bet that the seats have to be carried around otherwise. I'm...

    The word is getting out there!

    Dd is in parent-child swim lessons, and her particular class is for kids 10-18 months. Last night when I was changing her after lessons there were two other moms a couple of changing pads down. I overheard their conversation, and they were talking about how it's recommended now to keep kids...

    Checking Interest: Diaper making supplies

    I know I have some cotton terry, the type for making diapers (I'm going to have to dig it out and verify) and at least one AIO diaper pattern (very baby). I probably also have elastic and possibly some cut out diapers pieces nad such. If there would be interest here, I'll dig it out and...

    Help me pick dd's new seat...

    Sold my radian. Trying to sell the extra cover. I have a couple more things I may need to sell to fund a new seat. But I can't decide! It HAS to be girly and it can't be a radian. I was originally going to go with the butterfly true fit...

    Where to find MA DOM

    Ok, having a total "dumb" moment and for the life of me I can't remember or find the label with the DOM on my MA. Can anyone tell me the best place on the seat to look? I remember having this issue before, and then feeling really dumb when I found it because it was totally obvious.

    Am I a horrible mommy...

    ...if I let my 3yo ff? My plan when I bought the CA was to try to make it to 4. Ds2 is around 35-37lbs clothed on any given day. A couple of days ago my ds1 asked to sit in the middle row of our van because he wants to sit next to his sister (who is rfing). Ds2 was excited to ride in the 3rd...
