My MA70 is here!PICS added!
My first impression is that it's very soft. The Allison cover is very plush, like my Cowmoo. DD climbed right in and seemed very comfortable. The recline lever feels almost exactly like the EFTA one. The handle actually seemed almost rubbery or something. I got it adjusted quickly. I read the whole manual right away because I wanted to take the HUGS off, but I had read on here that you couldn't with the new seats. However, I found where it says they are optional rf and I took them off. In the house, DD seemed to not have much height room, but when I installed it, it looked like she had maybe 4-5" above her head. DD is 34" tall, mostly torso. It installed easily, just like my old MA. I haven't tried the lockoffs, but I will a bit later. The harness adjuster is awesome!
We went out and used the seat tonight. The harness adjuster is worth the extra $. I am not even kidding. The slanted straps do take some getting used to. I also installed it in DH's truck, an 04 Dodge 1500. Our old MA did not fit behind the drivers seat with DH's seat where he likes it. The new MA fits perfectly(DH does not get my new MA! LOL! He gets the old one, moved to the passenger side). Overall, I really like the seat. It's very easy to use and I think it will get us to where I am comfortable ff. I am just not a "rf until 4 at all costs" type of parent.
She has more leg room than her old MA. However, she is not cramped in the old one either. She has short legs. I do love the deep sides.
I think she looks very comfortable in the seat.
