    Rear Facing or Convertible seats?

    Which RF or convertible seats are your favorites for newborns and infants? I really don't want a bucket seat, and would prefer something that will last a little longer.

    Quick latch question

    I am trying to install a Regent in a 2006 Hyundai Tuscon. The seatbelt is too short to do it long belt path. I wanted to try latch, but I only see one latch connector on the inside of the car. Is that right or is there another one hiding somewhere? I am going to re-read the instruction...

    I need reccomendations for a seat, and a CPST in Missouri

    Here is the deal, we now have Regents in both cars that DD rides in on a regular basis. We are still using a booster w/5pt harness (I think it's a cosco-can't remember and it's not here right now) as an extra seat for riding with extended family. I like it because it is easy to switch in and out...

    Car accident/Insurance questions

    The last time I was rear ended, we had no problems with the insurance company. When they gave us the check for the damage to the car, they added in the value of the carseat. Last week, my partner's car was hit and we still have yet to find out of the other driver has insurance (long story-it...

    Would you say something if

    You knew a mom with a 7 month old (17.5 lbs, not sure of height) in a 2003 infant seat, but the harness clicks into the plastic at the bottom of the seat, and it's not a 5pt harness? The back of the seat says it expires in 2010, and I can not remember what model it was. It could be this one...

    Is BabyTv still doing the rebate?

    And if I've ordered from Dreamtime Baby/Baby Universe with the rebate, can I do it again?

    Here's my Regent install

    Please tell me this is correct. It is long belt path, plus recline bar, plus tethered, with a locking clip, in my 95 Ford Windstar. I did have to move the front passenger seat up just a little to give her more leg room, but otherwise, it was pretty easy. Hopefully I got it right...

    Growth charts and spare seats

    I started a new thread because I felt bad hijacking the "Boosters w/ 5pt harness after 40lbs" thread. Using this calculator, http://pediatrics.about.com/cs/growthcharts2/a/percentiles.htm, it puts her in the 36th percentile right now. If she stayed on the same curve, it says she'd 40lbs at 5.5...

    What woould you do?

    If this was your kid? 2 years old, 26lbs, don't know torso height, riding in an Evenflo Titan Deluxe (don't know if she's rf or ff). She can push the chest clip down, and get her arms out of the harness. Is there a better seat for her, or what...?

    Has anyone shopped at walmart.com?

    I hate to post this here, but I have googled and can't find any info. It is carseat related, because I need to buy a scenera for a friend. I'm thinking of buying it at walmart and having it shipped to the store. I have a coupon code I'd like to try, but I've gotten all the way through to the...

    Are Scenera's on clearance anywhere else?

    I called my local target, and they have none, and can't even find them in the system. I looked online and can't find them there either. So they think they may have all been clearanced out already. Is there anywhere else I might get one on clearance, or should I just suck it up and pay $40 at...

    Getting really annoyed with Dreamtime Baby

    Madison Regents are backordered once again. Originally it was 6/22, then 7/13, now 7/20. Is this because of the changes from Britax? Has anyone gotten one that ordered after 6/22?

    When is a booster outgrown

    By height? If you are using a HBB, either a harnessed til 40lbs, or a dedicated booster, when are they outgrown by height?

    I talked to my Aunt today

    Her granddaughter is 5 years old, 72 lbs, and torso height is 17.5 inches. I had talked to her a few months ago about getting *something* even if it's just a booster, because she currently rides with just the seat belt in all cars. She didn't pursue it then, but I'm hoping I can help her find...

    Fisher Price Safe Embrace Booster

    This is the model my almost 8 year old nephew is riding in. Model #70750, DOM 3/31/98. Is there an owner's manual online, or does anyone know the lifespan of this seat? What can it be replaced with? I don't know my nephews weight, but he'll be here on Wednesday, so I can weigh and measure...

    Questions about BabyTV rebate and becoming a tech

    First, I purchased the Regent through Dreamtime Baby on the 22nd, but then got an email that it was backordered, and would ship sometime before the 13th of July. On the rebate form, it says it must be postmarked within 30 days of the purchase. Should I go ahead and send it even though I haven't...

    How do you deal

    With so many expired car seats for sale? I look on CL for toys, books, clothes etc. all the time. Since I started coming to this board, I can't help but search for car seats. Last night I emailed three people selling infant seats, just to see what the DOM was. One was 97 and another was 2002...

    Do booster seats expire?

    Dedicated boosters, that can only be used with a shoulder/lap belt?

    WWYD If you had bought that expired seat

    On Ebay? I emailed the buyer, to see if they had checked the DOM or the expiration, and they said they had not. But it's already been paid for and shipped. They want to know what to do with it now. If I were in their position, I'd probably contact the seller first, and try to get a refund. I...
