bobandjess99 · Apr 10, 2010

I came to look, too. Just saw the FB update...

crunchierthanthou · Apr 10, 2010

I don't think there's a spot yet. I almost started a thread this afternoon with the twitter updates.

# A new SnugRide coming. Guess what the weight limit will be?

A new convertible from Evenflo!

Cryssy Jane · Apr 10, 2010

I've only seen FB updates thus far. 3lb coccoro!! and rf tether possibilities!

crunchierthanthou · Apr 10, 2010

from facebook -

Car-Seat.Org More from Lifesavers: Updated Combi Coccoro coming in 2010. Minimum 3 (three!) to 33 pounds and a RF tether likely to be among the minor changes.

that is the facebook info - it's the new convertible from Evenflo.

Momentum 65 - rf to 40 lbs, ff to 65 (guessing on the ff), plus 3 recline settings, infinite slide harness, Sure LATCH and a novel "E3 side impact protection system"

I'm just hoping it's taller than the Symphony65 or current EFTA

Car-Seat.Org News from Lifesavers: Evenflo's Triumph65 is rear-facing to 40 pounds. The new Momentum 65 Convertible will also, plus 3 recline settings, infinite slide harness, Sure LATCH and a novel "E3" side impact protection system. More to come here and at carseatblog.com .

That was on facebook

the one that spent the last two years revamping their infant seat, booster and HWH combo seat. bfmarini said there should be an announcement at the spring ABC Show in early May. the comments under the fb status hints at that, too. :thumbsup:

Really? I'm sorry, I must have missed some things......lats I heard, the reps were still saying they had "no plans" to test to higher weight limits...???

That is Louisville and yes, they're having some sort of big presentation. I will share anything I can while we're there at the show.

and from fb -

Car-Seat.Org Sounds like the Britax news will not be at Lifesavers but in the next month or two and it won't disappoint.

Safety Squad has updates on twitter from lifesavers. Here are a few:

Learning Curve First Years. Good line up. Like the fold up booster. Decent for robust model. True Fit. Checkout the Premier version.

Kiddy. German co. launching a 20-110 lbs. forward facing seat. We'll see

Graco stressed correct handle position for infant carriers. They said this is for a reason. Good to hear. We will find why.

Merritt Manfacturing features new harness buckle guard for Roosevelt. Also partnership with Hope Car Beds. A 4.5-35 lbs. car bed

Madeline410 · Apr 10, 2010

I just came looking for this thread! I can't wait to hear the Britax news! And the EFTA might just go back to being my favorite seat! I wonder if it will have a taller shell.

oh, awesome. You know, , it would be so easy, EASY for them to introduce a hwRF seat to our market..becuse unlike a lot of these other companies, Britax HAS the seats already...they HAVE them...tweak them to our requirements, and voila!
I of course, after waiting SO long and finally breaking down and getting a CA, supposedly to be the "last" seat ds would need before booster, now they have all these new ERF options coming out......

jess71903 · Apr 11, 2010

Oh yay! I logged on to my dad's computer that I don't like, and saw the FB stuff and HAD to come here and see what you guys were saying. I'm excited about the new HWRF possibilities!! Can;t wait to see pics!

April · Apr 11, 2010

A carbed that goes to 35lbs would be a really really great thing for the babies who need it. Glad to hear they are working on it.

The way I understand it, the Scandinavian Britax HWRF seats cannot pass our tests because our test sled has no place for the foot-prop, which is required for their installs. I'm not sure they'd be tweakable to US requirements because of this.

I believe that was referring to testing to higher limits on their current products.

SafeDad · Apr 11, 2010

Yesterday all we saw was 8 minute powerpoint presentations from each manufacturer with a brief overview. Hopefully today we will get more information at their booths and maybe some photos too. I note that most companies don't introduce new products at CPS shows. It's more often done at the spring or fall ABC Kids Expo, though details often leak out before then through retail channels as buyers usually get to see products so they can place orders ahead of time.
