Worst. day. EVER.

Anyhoo wrecked my car. Rear ended someone, there's pretty significant damage to my car. I need to replace DS's Nauti and DD's MyRide. I'm buying DS a seat on Friday, DD's will have to wait a bit (she has a spare Scenera).

What would you replace it with? He's 43ish inches, 40lbs, *right* at the 3rd slots on his Nauti. I need something from a B&M store. Around here there's BRU, Target, Baby Depot, and Wally World. I like the Nauti, but he always has head slump. I'm not sure what car it will be going in

ETA: Or, I could buy a Maestro, then order a nicer seat later and have a back up seat...

Several people I know have ended up preferring the Maestro over their "nicer" seats. I'd get it and use it, and if you like it, just stash the cash for a dedicated booster when the time comes.

I'm sorry to hear about your accident. I hope you feel okay???

We really liked the Maestro. No, it doesn't have a ton of padding but does have EPS foam and great cup holders.

The Maestro can be hard to find in stores. We have 1 Sears in a 2 hr radius that seems to stock it (We don't have Kmart too. Maybe they have it more often?)

I know I saw the Maestro in Sears a month or so ago, the one on 21st.

If you want a frontier there is a store in Tulsa that has them in stock most of the time, well and I think BRU has the tan one.

Hope everyone was ok! You are like the 5th person in T-Town to have an accident this week that I know...think I will stay up north for a while.

I'm sorry. I'd buy a maestro and see how you like it. Then go from there.

Sorry about your bad day....hope everyone is doing ok now.

Our target now has the Maestro. My mom has one for dd in her car--I'm actually thinking of replacing our Nauti with one (terrible head slump and hard to get in over those huge arm rests).

The kids weren't with her, thankfully. But she, and the other guy are OK. So that's all good. She's picking up a Maestro today for Jackson. So at least she's got that covered.
