So I ordered a BabyTrend Flexloc from Walmart.com. Had it shipped to my house because it was cheaper than driving an hour round trip to pick it up. So I got it on Tuesday and for some strange reason just today looked at the DOM. 7-12-2008. Um, really? Granted, it was $79.00 but I could find it about $10 more other places so I don't think that's that big of a discount.
And the base is totally different. I played with one at a local store (didn't buy that one because it was part of a travel system) and the base was the main reason I wanted it. But the base I got was drastically different shaped than the newer one. When did they change the base?
Needless to say, it's going back. I didn't use it beyond installing it so if they resell it it's fine. But I'm not going to keep a seat that only has 4 years left when I can get one almost the same price with more time to use it. I know some of you don't approve of returning seats but I feel ripped off. If it had been cheaper that would be different.
