Truefit or MyRide?

The MyRide is about an inch wider at it's widest part, because of the dual cuupholders. I love both seats and the one I like more depends on the child I'm using it for. For a skinnier child who doesn't need the 40lb RF weight limit, I like the True Fit more but I like the MyRide more if the child needs that extra weight limit, like my son needs.
The Myride has been much easier for me to install than the true Fit, or any other seat I've installed for that matter, and I've tried the MyRide in several vehicles (maybe 6 different cars). The True Fit has a taller shell so it will fit children longer as far as height goes. They both seem to fit newborns very well but I'm not sure if one is really better than the other as far as that goes. I guess I'm not much help...lol. I REALLY love the anti rebound feature of the True fit Premier and would be tempted to get that between the two just because of that. If only the True Fit RF to 40lbs...

For an infant I like the TrueFit better because the headrest comes off and its easier to fit in smaller spaces. I also really love the infant padding that comes with the TrueFit, and if I remember correctly its lowest slots are lower than the MyRide's when using the infant padding, so it will fit shorter newborns better.

I have both seats. I like the My Ride better for babies. With my 3 year old, I can just leave the harness on the True Fit at the proper tightness and squeeze her in there ;) I find that more difficult/ annoying with babies. The My RIde is easier to access the harness adjuster.
