Hi,
My DD will be 3 next week and she is 39 inches tall and 37 pounds. She rides comfortably in an Evenflo Triumph Advance in my van, but in my husband's truck she is in a Cosco High Back Booster. The shoulder straps are slightly below her shoulders now, so I need to buy her a new seat to keep her harnessed.
I have done alot of reading and I believe I have narrowed my choices down to a Graco Nautilus or a Britax Regent. A few months ago I bought a GN for her to use in my Mom's car and my DD likes it, but I am concerned about the crotch strap. She is almost sitting on it now and I am not sure how much time for growth she will have. With the Regents being on sale because they have been discontinued I started looking at that as my better option.
I am very confused about the pre/post advisory stuff in regards to the Regents though. Can anyone explain? Some of the posts here talk about the Regents having too many "rules" but they don't elaborate. I would appreciate any help in clarify the debate regarding this seat so I can make an informed decision.
Thanks!
