Yeah, I've seen Dorel getting bad press here. It makes me think twice about getting a CA, although it may be a great seat.
What philosophical issues do you have with Dorel, LISmama?
And their adjuster that didn't lock, allowing the harness to pull loose. (What seat was that? The Avenue?)
Wasn't it the Vantage booster? Or summit?
Where is the link to the euro statement?

So, like PP's have said, no particular brand, just particular seats....
So, yeah, I don't have any particular brand that really stands out to me. It depends on what works for the parents/child(ren)/cars.
That press release was just appalling
"However, most parents around the world eventually make the change because rearward facing child car seats are simply impractical in most situations. They take up a huge amount of room in the car, usually necessitating the front seats to be moved forward, and they don't even fit in some smaller cars. Unless the child is given sufficient legroom, he or she will be cramped against the car's seatback. It can be incredibly difficult for a parent to get a larger child into such a seat and the fitting system is often very complex, increasing the chance of incorrect fitting.. "
They are the manufacture and yet they are criticizing they own design flaws. How much sense does that make?
:yeahthat: Currently I have several brands in my house. I have a Frontier 85 and a Radian XT in my car right now. I also own a Combi CCO, a Graco My Ride and a Graco snugride. So I have my bases pretty covered and like all of the seats! I don't have any evenflo's right now, but I really like their convertibles (they just take up too much room in my car). I despise their infant seats though. I really can't comment much on the Dorel seats. I've owned one (Avenue) and liked everything about it, except that I had to use noodles. I'm actually embarrassed to own a Britax because of the stereotypes of Britax owners around here. It's what fits DS though.
