what are your kids stats, if they are using the scenera rear facing.. I am deciding if I should get one for Nolan.

I am just wanting to get an idea of weather it will work rear facing or not for him.

(I hope this makes better sense then the other thread I made)

Austin has outgrown rfing by weight and height, but he's big. He's so close to have outgrown ffing as well by height and weight

He's about 40" and torso is 15-16"

Odin has outgrown it rear facing, and had done so shortly after his 2nd birthday. Madison has about 2-3 inches above her head. Amare has about 3 inches.

does anyone have torso heights on their kids so I can get an idea, I am pretty sure Nolan had like 3 inches left when I tried one in august, If I could get the kid to play car seat I could go measure myself lol

Dot is 30.5 inches, a 10.5 in torso, 24 pound and 18 months in her Scenera.

Bear is 30 months, a 12 in torso, 27 pounds and 34 inches in his scenera.

both kids are on the second slot for RF, would need to be on the 3rd for forward

Well, this won't help you at all, but since you asked for stats on RF Scenera users...Maddie is 22 1/2" and 10.2lbs and has TONS of room left RF. She still needs receiving blankets packed around her.

Well, we haven't used our Scenera in a while, but you made me curious so I decided to try DS and my nephew in one in the house (leaned back against the couch rather than upright).

DS is 5.5yo, ~25lbs, 36in and he's got about 3.5" of shell above his head. He's obviously abnormally small for his age, but he's probably about the size of your average skinny 2yo. He's proportioned like a 5yo though. DN is 3yo, ~35.5lbs, 38" and has about 2.25in of shell above his head. He's outgrown it by weight though because this is an older Scenera.

DS is 38" and 30lbs, 3.5y. He would fit RF if I could get a decent angle. It's our backup/travel seat.

Colton is 35 months, 35" tall & 25lbs. Not sure of his torso, but his height is more in his legs. He still has tons of height room, at least 3-4" to go.

My ds outgrew it a few months ago (around 4 yrs old) ..he had a 14 in torso, was around 38.5 in and 30 lbs at the time.
My dd has a 13 in torso, 20 lbs, 34 in tall and still has plenty of growing room. (she's 2.5 yrs old right now)
Here's pics that were taken inside but she doesnt lose much room when installed.
