Trufit for a tiny 4 year old?

Would this be a good option for a small 4 year old? 32 pounds 37 inches. Average torso (I'm guessing around 14).

DD LOVES the print Amazon has on sale and it looks like a comfy seat. I'd get a RNXTSL but the flora print is still OOS.

She's the size of my 2 year old-37" and 32lbs and she fits great in the seat.

My 42" 4 year old who is 29 lbs though is much too skinny and doesn't find it comfy cause she's so far away from the sides

So even though there is only a 3 pound difference in the kids, the shorter "stockier" one fits much better and loves the seat, while the skinny narrow one can't stand it.

So if she is the same size as my 2 year old she should fit great!

Normally, I would say no for a 4 year old, but for that price and for a tiny 4 year old, I say go for it!

Look at my siggy, that pic is from this summer, but Jaylee is almost 4 now (in January). She is 35 lbs, and has a 15 inch torso height. She is still on the next to top slot and fits great! Monet is soo pretty!!

My 28 month old is bigger than that (38.5 inches and 35lbs) and fits great in the True Fit. His torso is just over 14 inches and he still has at least 4 inches of shell above the top of his head. If he hadn't already reached 35lbs, he'd be rear facing in it still. I'd buy it if you are planning to rear face still but not for a forward facing only seat.

My 4.5yo and almost 7yo both fit great in the TF- the width of the seat is awesome for older kiddos with broader shoulders. For smaller kids, I think it's a great choice, especially since it sits so low- like the Radian.
