I just purchased an Avenue and try as I might could not get it installed in the middle row of our Ody. I tried latch and seatbelt. I could not get a good recline RF. I need a seat that I can easily install and uninstall. I also can't have one that is too pricey. I have installed a Scenera once, and it wasn't perfect, but not as bad as the Avenue. Any other ideas? Do I have to use a noodle for RF?

You'll likely need a pool noodle or a rolled towel. It's not at all uncommon.

I found it a very easy seat to install and use.

Any great tips? It is hard to pull the latch adjuster tight because of the wings that come out on the side, any suggestions.

I just saw that tip about pulling the latch back thru the path. I will for sure try that tip. I did try using the seatbelt, but had a hard time getting it tight there to. Usually I have my hubby help, but I really want to figure this one out on my own as it won't be a seat we leave in all week. Thanks for the help!

You can do the same thing when you're doing a seatbelt install. In fact, with that seat I just pull back the cover for anything. Then I can see what I'm doing, make sure everything's flat, and I can pull in the direction of the belt more easily.
