    Has anyone seen one in person (at a baby expo etc)? Anyone know more about when they'll be on the market in Canada? Size wise, it looks wider than the other Radians, I wonder if it would still be a good 3 across..

She was worried that baby was outgrowing her bucket seat by height, and mention that she was currently in the keyfit30. I questioned her about it, because I am pretty sure that isn't available in...

    Please check 2 Radian XT (Canadian) in Hyundai Santa Fe, 2008

    Im posting for my sister, she just bought 2 Radian XTs for her 25 month old DD and 6 month old DS. Can you please check the angles? The install is solid, using LATCH, but it seems that DD's seat is *slightly* tilting towards the car door side, perhaps because the rf tether is tighter on that side?

    Please check angle of CA :)

    We just installed our Complete Air for our 7 month old (although she's still using her infant seat, the CA is a little too big still). Does the angle look ok?

    Quick LATCH question

    I assume that the 40 lbs LATCH limit is the weight of the child, not the combined weight of child and car seat? Right?

    Safety 1st Complete Air Installation

    Ok, so we just bought a CA. I love the look of this seat and the fact it rf to 40 pounds. My dd is 7 months, and still fits her infant seat, and is still a little too small (bum to shoulder is just under 10.5 inches), so we won't be using it just yet, but we tried installing it, and had some...
