Belly pad shredding on BOTH of my Radian XT!

todzwife · Aug 30, 2010

DS is in one (gray mesh type fabric) and DD is in an XTSL in the flora and BOTH of the belly pads are shredding. Of course, it's a total cosmetic issue, but it looks awful! Do you think SK would replace it, neither seat is very old...I think DS's is almost 2 years old and DD's is about a year?

I would definitely call and ask. I had a problem with the mesh cover, the mesh just fuzzed up awfully, everywhere it had contact with my son. They sent me a replacement cover very quickly and without any trouble.

Same thing on my XT. Keep us updated!

It happened with my 80sl and there were a few spots on the under side of the cover that were pulling away from the stitching and. They sent me a whole new cover set! Even let me get metro instead of the mesh! I didn't have that problem with my old rn80 just the new one!

Same thing on my XTSL. :thumbsdown:

They replaced mine - but while waiting, I cut it close to the edge and melted the edge with a lighter - never frayed again

I think I may have to try that. Mine is fraying really badly also.

DS's Naussa XT also had this issue. We called and they sent us a replacement in another color cause that cover was discontinued.

Yup. Happened to my granite and now my flora. :thumbsdown: It's the belly pad "trim" that is fraying and coming apart. I sewed the granite before I sold it on swap. I trimmed the Flora but was in a rush and plan on sewing it next time the cover needs to be washed. Hopefully it isn't demolished by then, I never think to really look at it.

My petal belly pad is doing it too.

I just don't really care all that much to be honest. If its not a safety issue I usually go "meh"

Mine is frayed really bad and it was only on her seat for a few weeks. I meant to call but forgot and it got put away. I wonder if I call now would they do anything about it... I think its been a year??
