I played with some of the seats at BRU the other day eek, and was really impressed by the latest ETFA DLX. The sides and back seemed almost as high as the MR and the leg room seemed about the same. It was a heavy and solid seat that was labeld 'Made in the USA'.:thumbsup:
The LX version seemed fairly flat in comparison, and didn't seem to have the height around the sides of the head (which I really prefer).
The BRU didn't have the sandbox cover, but I remember seeing it and loving it in the past. The Sandbox is currently on closeout at albeebaby for only $119.
Could anyone tell me if the design of the sandbox is like the new DLX versions or is it like the LX versions?
Also, for a child that is of average height and weight, what would the TF offer over the ETFA? Why isn't the ETFA recommended much anymore vs. the TF? I do love the anti-rebound bar of the TFP and have been coveting one.
This is for DS2, btw, who has suddenly started to sprout legs and is looking squished in the DC. His legs are froggy in it and I would really like him to have more leg room. He has been fighting me about not wanting to get in the seat for a month. I'm hoping it is just an age related temporary thing, but hey, any excuse for a new seat......
My other option is the MR or CA (don't like the CA's 40" limit -yes I know I can ignore it, but don't want to). My dd outgrew the height of the MR & weight of the TF at the exact same time, so I don't know if the extra 5 lbs would matter that much for my skinny kids.
TIA
