    HBB for redesigned Malibu?

    What HBB have you used successfully in a redesigned Malibu? We have an '08, and the Turbo, Monterey, and Parkway SG all had gaps behind them. The Oobr's rigid LATCH didn't work with where the LATCH and seat belt buckle are placed in the car (even on the non-overlapping lower anchor side), and...

    Carseatblog.com issues?

    I'm having issues accessing carseatblog.com. I'm trying to link the RF Link Guide for a thread here, and the link isn't working (blank screen) and is adding www. algaescrubber .net to the end. I tried to go through the main carseatblog.com page and search, and once I got to the second page of...

    Question Britax base issues?

    How widespread are the Britax loose base issues? I have a tiny niece, and with all the Graco buckle issues, I was leaning toward one of the Britax convertibles to recommend, but I remember reading about some loose bases. Are those bases likely to be an issue?

    Are the buckles on the Graco Snugride 35 having the same issues as other Graco seats?

    I'm trying to come up with some infant seat recommendations for my SIL & BIL, and I was going to include the Graco Snugride 35 on the list. I was curious if the issue with the crotch buckles getting stuck on the Nautilus and the Graco convertibles is a problem with the Snugride 35, because I...

    National Poll on Children's Health: Parents turning car seats to face forward too early

    I was reading about the University of Michigan's C.S. Mott Children's Hospital National Poll on Children's Health. In May, 2011, they surveyed 500 parents about when they turned their child forward-facing. I was kind of surprised by the results. 30% of parents turned their child forward-facing...

    Graco Argos on Target.com - not for sale yet

    The Argos is on Target.com. The cover is called Axel, and it's a grey-on-grey-on-black (shocking, huh? ;)). It says it's out of stock, and there's no price listed yet, but it's there. :)

    1.5" clearance to RF in Radian?

    I noticed over on SKJP's Facebook page that they responded to a poster that a child needs 1.5" of shell above the head to RF in a Radian. Has anyone heard anything about this before? During a webchat a few months ago, two of the customer service reps mentioned that as well. When I questioned...

    Turboobooster armrest & screw question

    I'm trying to assemble a Graco Turboobooster (I'd like to booster train DD). I have a question about the screws. I got the first armrest on and screwed it in with no issues; the screw went in and completely tightened without being able to twist anymore. When I put the second armrest on and tried...

    In Search Of ISO Baby GAP Yellow shirt (4t/5t) & Jeans (5t)

    I know this is a long shot, but I figure I'd ask just in case. :) I couldn't find what I'm looking for on Ebay. DD's favorite shirt is a yellow shirt from Baby GAP (from the spring '08 collection, s/543065 300234 on the tag). I'm hoping someone has this shirt in a 5T or even a 4T, because...

    Delano My Ride

    Has anyone seen the Delano My Ride in person yet? It looks like it's black/dark gray and light gray (a gray cover on a Graco seat - I know you are all shocked ;)) with mint green accents. I just saw it on Graco's website, and I was curious if anyone has seen it in a store yet.

    Tweeting with Britax

    The other day on Twitter, Britax asked its followers what their New Year's resolutions were. My first inclination was to respond that my resolution was to NOT buy a Britax convertible again until they had one that rear-faced to 40+ lbs. like Graco, Dorel, and Sunshine Kids. :o I managed to...

    AAP and Rear-facing

    I was just reading the minutes of the October 2009 board meeting of the National CPS Board over at cpsboard.org. (Yes, I'm aware I'm a dork. :p) From the minutes: "At September meeting, committee discussed inconsistency in messaging provided to parents from pediatricians about rear facing...

    My Ride splitter plate issues

    Just got a My Ride yesterday. I'm looking for some opinions on a (hopefully paranoid) concern about the splitter plate. My splitter plate came with black marker drawing a line to a small dent in the center of the splitter plate. The indentation is small, but noticeable. Maybe it's on all the...
