BRU & the RA55

RA55...pics

Well, BRU didn't have any of the Britax 70 seats, but they did gave the RA 55. It was ok. I liked how the seat cover was thicker and it had EPP foam, the black is EPP right? I didn't hate the recline adjustor but I didnt like it either. I never did get it in the middle position. I did get several pics if someone can tell me the best way to get them on here. My 2.5 yo is about 36-38 inches tall and 33 lbs. She was comfy, but shoulder space was limited. Height was ok, but no 55lb kid is going to fit in that seat, by height or weight. Oh and Britax went to the single hook version of the harness strap connector thing( ah ha Splitter plate! ) , forgive me, brain is fried and I cant remember what its called. The main thing that bothered me, when I loved the harness up, even I inadvertently hooked the tether strap instead of one of the harness straps to the splitter plate. The end of the tether slack has a loop in it just like the harness....just occured to me, that might've been the d-ring...yep my brain is fried.

I also got picks of her in the Maestro. It had so much more room to grow than the RA 55.

Heres a link to the pics on FB.

Thanks! She has a :eek: 13 inch torso. Is it just me or does that sound tiny? Especially for a 38 inch tall kid... She was a bit wiggly but I think that's right.
