if im not mistaken, most feel its a good seat for situations where you have a seat belted person next to the carseat?

otherwise its a bit overpriced and not so necessary?

how many people on here have it?

but i was happy to see that the 1+ year old was still rear facing.

I think most here think it's over priced.

A Mom at Sofi's preschool has them for her kids, that's the only place I've seen them IRL. I do think if you had the seat FF, next to a person with no head protection (carseat, HBB), it's be beneficial in a side impact.

I kind of like it. :eek: Not enough to pay retail for it, but I saw one for like $230 and I paused. The covers look really soft...

Im pretty sure that a girl on the 3rd floor has it for her DD in the katheryn print. From what i can see with it being in her car, it looks like a pretty awesome seat.

She has it and another seat (looks like a Cosco booster) both on the outboard and it looks like another seat or a person can be in the middle. She has a VW Passat.

The child in the seat benefits from the cushions as well. According to Britax, there was a 50% reduction in force for the occupant.

Yes it is overpriced, and it is up to you whether or not the benefit is worth the price and the hassle of trying to adjust the headwings and access the ffing lockoff with those giant bumper pads in the way.

I doubt you could get an Advocate and any seat outboard into a Passat with room for a third seat or adult in the middle. The Advocate is almost as wide as a Regent.

Im not 100% sure that is what it is. i do know that its a Britax and almost positive that its the Kathryn print. I know that there is a bit of room inbetween the 2 seats.

I will have to see if I can get a better look tomorrow without making myself look weird ! lol

The Advocate is FAA approved.

Well, crap LOL. Thats what the dude in the store told me after I said that it needed to be because we fly alot. We also lived in Hawaii then and the Advocate was on order, mhm he probably wanted me to buy the Blvd that was there, which is what I did :rolleyes:
