Question Radian vs. True Fit Top Slot and Leg room Measurements

Does anyone have a Radian and a True Fit who wouldn't mind getting some measurements for us? DH keeps asking me which seat will have more leg room, but no stores in the area carry either seat I can't find anything on-line.

Is the Radian 65 and the Radian XT the same size (leg room and top slot height)? What about the TF vs TFP?

I am so tempted to order both seats and see which one my son likes better. I feel like the TFP would be easier to keep clean, but I wonder if my son would be more comfortable in a Radian...:confused::dizzy:

Thank you so much!

I got the same for both (17"-17.25") for top harness height and with pressing down on the cushion.

I don't have either one anymore to measure the seat depth and can't think of which one would have more leg room (it also depends on the recline angle too). Maybe some else will have the answer for this :)

I now have an XT that I should measure for top slots but I think might be the same.

I have had a TF and now have a Radian. I think the Radian offers more legroom because the kids can so easily put their legs over the side (there really is no side).

The Radians all have the same legroom. And the TF and TFP should have the same.

All the Radians have the same outer shell, the same legroom, the same installation, the same top harness slot. The Radian can be used with the child's shoulder above the top slot, but the headwings on the XT don't adjust up higher than the top slot, so it would be very uncomfortable to try to do so.

I have a True Fit, True Fit Premier, and Radian 65SL.

DD has more legroom in the Radian, but she has TONS of legroom in the TF and TFP too. She moved from a Britax Boulevard CS.

Hope this helps!
