    Vent So disappointed with Diono/Sunshine Kids

    I have a parent who owns 3 Radians (DOM 08/2006) and 2 Montereys (2010). One of the Radian harness ratchet casings has become dislodged and the bolts that once held it in place, no longer exist. The mother came in for a car seat check (I'm a CRST in Canada) and was not aware this was a safety...

    Question VW Routan Captain's Seat Issue

    I'm trying to find out the info for someone else who may not know what to read for in the owner's manual. She has a RF Evenflo Triumph with the harness tightening knobs at the sides. It's installed in the captain's seat and the knobs are pushed so hard into the seat's bolsters that turning the...

    Let's play a game called 'Spot the issue'

    So, I was test driving a 2012 Ford Focus today (Canadian). I decided to peruse the manual for LATCH info. This is what one of the paragraphs read: "Once the child safety seat has been installed using either the safety belt, or the lower anchors of the LATCH system, or both, you can attach the...

    Need CAR suggestions

    Does this car exist? I have a friend who is car shopping (new or used, depending on price). If it's used, she would like something no older than 2008. The budget is tight but with her 3rd child on the way, it's a necessary purchase. She is in Canada and under $20k is pretty much her limit...

    Apramo NBB - How long is it good for?

    Anyone have an answer from the horse's mouth? I've combed through the manual and I had a good look over the seat and I'm finding nothing that states how long it can safely be used. I know TC says 9 years, but where is that information coming from? I'd like to know if the manufacturer has...

    Does this vehicle exist?

    I am helping a family look for a vehicle that will hold a family of 6, that is not a minivan, is good on gas, has a minimum of 2 tether locations, does not require the older children to climb over car seats or cargo, has some cargo area, and does not cost an arm and a leg. Used is fine, as is...

    News Buckling kids on school buses in Nova Scotia

    Apparently (though I can't find any news articles on it), they will be requiring all children under 9 AND under 4'9 AND under 40 lbs to be secured in child safety seats. They are discussing it on the radio (95.7 FM) right now. They are talking to a bus union head and are saying it will be a...

    Help me decide

    My 2 y/o is RF in a MR. He still fits with room to grow in both height and weight. My goal was to keep him RF until at least 3 y/o or the limit of the seat, which he won't be until early March (3.5 months from now). RF at 4 y/o is likely ambitious for him and his size. I am now struggling with...

    Baby Jogger Summit or Elite or ???

    I think we've narrowed our decision down to the Baby Jogger brand but since they cost a whole lotta $$$, I want to be sure we're making the right decision. I have a 2.5 y/o SN kiddo (35 lbs). I need a stroller since my back is starting to feel the strain of babywearing for longer periods...

    Replacement wings for the Radian XT/XTSL?

    I thought I recalled reading something about "new headwings" for the Radian XT/XTSL but I can't seem to find it. I'm frustrated with the foam piece that runs between the wings as it completely interferes with the harness. When the headwings are lowered into the correct position, the foam...

    Looking for a non-mesh cover (+ headwings) in a non-girly cover. Does not need to be new or like new. Just needs to be reasonably priced and able to ship to Canada. Infant inserts not required. I have a Malibu cover set I could trade but it's very sun faded and definitely not pristine...

    Question Personal experience with the Frontier XT

    I am thinking about returning the Maestro I bought a couple weeks ago and buying the Frontier XT instead. I'd like some input from those who have the XT or both... The reason the Maestro is being returned is that I'm just not 100% pleased with it. For $100 it's a decent budget seat but it...
