This scares me.
We just put our Cosco harnessed seat up for sale, as Jo has 1/2 inch of torso growth before outgrowing the harness. I knew this seat had low top slots, so not too big of a deal.
We use MIL's van the other day and it looks like he has less than 1" of torso growth before the freaking harness is outgrown on her Scenera. He is exactly 1" from the top of the shell. This is an older Scenera.
We sat him in our newer Scenera and it looks like they added height to the shell, giving him more growth that way BUT same deal with the harness, less than 1" until his shoulders are grown OVER the harness.
Forward facing seats go by the harness in relation to shoulders/weight for seat reached/or ears level with top of shell, correct?
The only seat we have that he can rear face in is the MyRide - he's about 36 pounds with no shoes, outgrowing ALL seats RFing by weight in our house.
We have an Evenflo Chase the grandparents use. He should still be good in this seat for a time.
My mother has an Evenflo Generations or Bolero, I don't know which without looking at it in person (not expired but was a hand-me-down from my aunt, so older.) He is at the top slots on this I believe, making this one on the son-to-outgrow list too.
Our last surviving seat is the Alpha Omega Elite. Also a hand-me-down, so older, but not near expiration yet. I don't have a manual for this seat but I heard the last slot of something is only for booster mode? When is this seat outgrown? At his slot now, he's got over an inch of harness but I think we are close...
There is no money to buy a higher-weight RF seat, but what do I do if he outgrows everything FFing as well?!
My Dad measured his torso yesterday. We think it is 13.5", so he isn't huge or anything, right?
HELP?!
