I had to go to Best Buy to pick up something for DH and Buy Buy Baby and Babies R Us are close by, so I just had to go play with car seats (I don't go out that way very often). A friend of mine is on bedrest and I told her I'd check out seats for her and take pics.
Here are the girls stats:
DD#5-2 years 8.5 months old, 28 lbs, 37 inches, 13.5" torso (best I could measure anyway...it might be a little off)
DD#4-4 years 6 months old, 37 lbs, 40 inches, 14.5" torso (again, best I could measure...her and DD#5 weren't exactly cooperative when I was trying to measure).
DD#3-5 years 11 months old, 39 lbs, 44 inches, 17 inch torso
"Baby Allie" (DD#5's doll)-16.5 inches, 6.5 inch torso (I didn't realize she's missing an eye lash until I was looking at the pictures...and her sleeper is too big, so her feet aren't at the end of the sleeper...)

The straps are too high on the lowest setting
DD#5
I didn't try DD#4 in this one because I didn't want to take the head rest out. She's over the weight limit for RFing and is on the last setting FFing (since you can use the highest setting in the newer seats...correct?)

I thought it fit very well.
I didn't put my girls in this one since we have a MR at home, but here are pictures of them in ours:
DD#4
DD#5

Bottom slots are way too high
DD#4
second from bottom harness slot
DD#5 (second from bottom harness slot...she's over the RFing weight limit, so she'd have to go FFing and move the harness up a slot, but I didn't feel like taking the time to do it...)
