What a cool seat :) When my little one (now almost nine) was 2, a Marathon was the best offered, and that meant 33lbs rearfacing-- it may have even been 30 at that point? He was 28lbs at 6 months, and 30lbs at a year. We had to turn him around 15 months if I remember correctly. Thanks to the Husky he stayed harnessed until 6. At almost 9 he is 4ft9in and abt 95lbs. He meets the 5pt test now in my van, which is a good thing as his hips are too wide for a booster lol.

My 5 yr old was also in a Marathon and turned before 2 (because of weight) He is a skinny boy now though-- at 5 he is within 10lbs of what he was at 2. Finally too tall for his Marathon though (at a bit over 4ft).

Anyway, just amazing to me how much seats have changed in a relatively short period of time! :) Other than a Radian, Jupiter Kroozer and a couple of Graco boosters, I have always had Britax seats (7 of them I believe). I know that this is a Euro seat, but it means that things are moving in the right direction. I would love to see even more options than there are now, esp reasonably priced ones.

lol that was a tangent! I meant to say that I am thrilled that you helped someone keep their baby a bit safer-- kudos to you! :)

(Judi's coming down in October...)

I am very comfortable with the Zento's top of the shell rule with this seat-- it is REALLY designed to prevent overrotation. Very different from a US seat. Not something I would ever contemplate with a US seat (as they are currently designed), at all.

When I get a chance, we will take pics; it may be a while, miss crankypants has a cold and is not happy to pose the last few weeks.

Judi's coming to Cali?! I missed her last time...I wanna party, too!
