I am going to buy a new seat, help me!

arly1983 · Oct 28, 2009

Ok, its time for some vicarius buying!

I have been good so I am rewarding myself with a new seat. I want something that S can use and possibly my niece but she could still RF in a roundabout by height and only weights 26 lbs. It would be nice if C could fit in it FFing. My kids specs are in my siggie.

I have been making sucky choices lately so you guys help me decide.

Its easier to list the HW convertables I haven't owned:
MyRide
Complete Air
True Fit Premiere
Symphony65
Radian XTSL

I do not mind buying something I have already owned but it would be nice to get something new.

Radian XTSL, mainly b/c I want one.

Radian XTSL, because I want one too.

LOL, no other reason besides that?

Radian, it is the most versatile IMO

3 votes for Radian XTSL!

Radian XTSL because I am getting one

No seriously, the high RF weight limit, and the tall shell and harness slots make it great no matter who you need to put in it on any given day, from newborn to booster. JMO

Ok, nobody else has an opinion?

Otherwise, XTSL wins.

lauralou · Oct 28, 2009

I vote xtsl or the complete air.They both seem to be great in the head department and rearfacing height.JMO

XTSL or My ride

ChristyH · Oct 28, 2009

XTSL - Right now it's on the top of my list.

MOM25BOYS · Oct 28, 2009

Another vote for the XTSL!

I really think you need one.... so when you get tired of it I can just buy it from you.

hehehe

ketchupqueen · Oct 28, 2009

XTSL.

Judi · Oct 29, 2009

The XTSL is easier to install. Super smooth!

I got something new and it wasn't an XTSL

What did you get?!?

My sister being the wonderful person she is agreed to go christmas shopping and carseat drooling with me.

We tried out the Radian XT at a baby boutique first. I was surprised by how much I remembered that I didn't like and the SL had those same features/issues.

Then we went to TRU and tried the Symphony, Myride, and Complete Air. I didn't like either of the first ones. I wasnt going to try the last one but my sister said why we were here...and I had never put Seth in it. At that point I had decided I was going to just get an Radian80SL or a Marathon since I knew I liked both.

BUT I put Seth in the Complete Air and just loved the fit of it. He had been in more than a half a dozen seats by then and was cranky. He just laid back int he Complete Air and grinned. My sister kept playing with the other seats and I just left him in it and sat beside him and read the manual. He feel asleep after about 15 mins.

I just had to get it, kinda like the Frontier. It wasn't my favorite seat but J and C loved it. He has been sitting in the CA by the computer now about 20 mins since I took the pics and hasn't fussed a bit.

I love the black cover so much more than the harvest (which surpised me). Very nice IRL. Pics don't do it justice.

The more I play with it, the more I like it but I love that he loves it. (His sister still hates it though

)

When it rang up for $186.99 plus tax that just sealed the deal.

Yay! Glad you found a seat that makes you and S happy!
