And I couldn't be happier! It's much lighter than the SS1 so lugging around his 26 lb butt actually wasn't hard. We used it already today.
He is only on the 3rd from the top setting This is a kid who outgrew the KF at 2 months and the SS1 at 6. So yeah, the Shuttle is way taller.
However it's pretty narrow. He doesn't seem to mind (and was swaddled until a month ago so I think he likes it) but other chunks may not like it. It doesn't take up much room front to back and I have plenty of room for my seat
The crotch strap is very short and was kind of hard to get the puzzle buckle into (the buckle kept slipping out of my hand) but he did have a full cloth diaper on. But it's something I'll have to live with.
A plus? My shower cap style cover I had fits fine (another post was asking about that). I'll post pics when the kids are in bed. I'll be keeping it and should have no problem getting through winter. I'm very happy. I know infant seats aren't for everyone but I am definitely a bucket seat kinda gal
Alright pics:
Stats are 9 months, 32" and 26.5 lbs. Don't know torso size but he wears a 2T top
Here he is at 2 months in the KF30
Here he is at 6 months in the SS1 when he outgrew it
Shuttle 33
At current setting (3rd from top, so two more to go) in house
Kinda narrow (yes my child is terrified of the world)
Current setting installed in car: As you can see I have atleast 3 inches between my seat and his seat. My seat is set for me in this pic and I am 5'6". DH should have no problem driving.
Highest setting installed in car. How much room do you think he has?
Shower cap cover. I just threw it on and didn't straighten it. That's why it looks stupid. If I straightened it, it would look normal If fits with room to spare. I have no clue why it's unfocused. Sorry!
Install was super easy and has a wide range of angles. I like the level indicator for different weights as well! It is super light! We shall see if it's something I will hang on to for the next babe since I've proven to produce brutes
