    Booster rec for 5 1/2 year old

    You guys have given me invaluable advice over the years :) My DS who is 5 1/2 and 48" with torso height of 16 1/2, weighs 52 lbs currently rides in Frontiers in both DH and I cars. My sister will be watching him 1-2 times a month, maybe more here and there. I do NOT feel like moving seats...

    FF RN XTSL almost outgrown by height?

    I'm certain I must be mistaken but I looked at DS today in his seat and I swear his head is about an inch from the top! He may have a tiny bit of room left but I don't know. I'm including a pic and I will have to measure to be sure. BUT, I just want to clarify that with FF he still needs an...

    FF seat for tallish kid?

    My DS is 3 1/2 and recently hit the weight limit for RF in his RN XTSL. I don't really care for the Radian as a FF seat for some reason. He's 44-45 lbs and approx 43 inches tall. He has a longish torso. I was looking at the Nauti and Frontier 85 and several people recommended the FR85. Is...

    My turn with the Radian piece loosening!!

    And now I just don't know what to do.... I keep re-evaluating every 2 months or so;). After reading here about that clip that loosens up with just a light touch, I have been checking mine pretty regularly with no issues, until yesterday. It loosened up right away when I pushed on it. My DS...

    Reported a driver,cop only gave a warning

    So DH, DS and I were driving to go to a local amusement park here the other day and there was a lot of traffic on the street just before the entrance which is typical. They usually have several county police officers stationed along the street to help things along if the traffic gets too out of...

    Only on this forum

    can I post about getting another seat to RF my 40 1/2 lb almost 3 year old for another 4 1/2 lbs! Anyone else would think I'm crazy for not just turning him FF in the seat he has. Good news is that I snagged one of the 80SLs for $97 on strollers.com ;)

    Getting close to 40 lbs at 2 1/2-Help?

    My DH has the RN 65 SL in his car and I weighed DS yesterday, he was 38.2 lbs with clothes on. He had also just drunk a huge glass of milk :). I'm really against turning him before he turns 3 in September but DH is balking at buying another seat. I have the final say so though. So my...

    Reassure me DS will make it to 3 in RN 65SL

    DS had a weigh in with clothes officially at doctor's office. 34 lbs full dressed. He's 23 months and I know he should make it to 3 before hitting 40 lbs but can I hear from some other moms of bigger kids? I have the XT in my car at least but we got the 65 when diapers.com made the pricing...

    Radian angle check

    Can someone please tell me if the angle looks okay on this radian? My DH recently got a new to him car and installed "his" Radian in it and said he couldn't get it any more upright. It looks very reclined to me or maybe just looks off because my Radian in my car is more upright. Thank you!

    Yes, another one (RN install-tightness)

    Last one, I hope. I tightened my XT today and I could not get it as tight as I originally installed it (when I had the latch connectors upside down). DH and I did it together and it will not get any tighter. Basically, at the belt path part of the seat, it doesn't move. But at the part of...

    Radian owners-Satisfy my curiosity?

    I've seen a couple of threads where kids much older than mine are on lower harness slots. I know that all kids are different and are different sizes but it just has me curious. If you have a Radian, how old is your child, how tall, torso height, and weight and what harness slot are they on? I...

    3rd time charm?

    OK, I think I've FINALLY got it right with installing my RN XTSL using latch. I've got the latch connectors up and the clip is close to how it looks in the instruction manual. Pics below. I'm having a bit of an issue getting it tight enough like this though. It seems it was easier to tighten...

    More help w/Latch-RN XTSL install

    Me again, back with another issue. In my previous post, I was told I had my latch connectors upside down so I reinstalled today. I do have them up now but I'm still not sure I have it right because the latch buckle is now pressed against the plastic part of the seat (pics below). Any other...

    Flora pics & 1 question

    Can someone take a peek and take a guess if my angle looks ok? Also, I have the XTSL in my car and I got a solid install with LATCH. In DH's car, we did a seatbelt install and I couldn't get it solid. He will try to tighten later today. At the base it's tight (no movement) but at the top of...

    Question Help w/Radian Ratcheting system

    I just bought and installed 2 RN's. XTSL in my car and a 65SL in DH's. Mine went in first (XTSL) and I found it quite difficult to tighten the harness. I was doing the tug,tug,tug thing and it was taking forever. Ok, I figured it is what it is. My Blvd. sucked in that dept. too. But then I...

    diapers.com price match (those that emailed)

    How long did it take for them to respond back to you? I emailed yesterday and have not gotten a response yet. Should I just call or email again?

    Need ideas B4 I order XTSL from BabyCatalog

    I live in a state that diapers.com taxes :(. So even with getting the price match and then the 10percent code, I think the seat comes to 215.99 but with tax it adds up to @ 235. Only $5 less than BabyCatalog and I'd also have to have it shipped to my sister's because I'm not a first time...

    Center latch use?

    I have a question on the use of center latch in my 2005 Chevy Equinox. I currently have a Blvd installed outboard and will be buying a RN XTSL which I want to install center. However, way back when I was pregnant and having my bucket installed, the tech specifically said I should NOT use...
