Okay, we just received our match through adoption and it's a set of 3 siblings, all under 5!!! They are all at front facing weights/heights now, but we've not bought carseats in years......wow on those prices!
Since we need 3, we're trying to figure out which would be economical while being safe and fitting in the Suburban (2 in the back and one in the middle bench).
Here are my main concerns in picking one out:
1)We still have 2 birth children to fit in the vehicle too, tweens.....so they need a bit of room but no carseats. The carseats I need to buy for the others need to leave room for 2 other children, so they can't be really really wide like some I've read are.
2)The seats would be great if they could handle up to 65 pounds, although I realize that a lot of them outgrow the height restrictions prior to the weight, so one that covers both would be nice.
3)The seats need a recline feature if possible, or something that helps to keep their head from bobbing when they sleep. I remember that when we did have car seats before we had to buy those pillow like things that went around the front of them to keep their heads from falling over on long road trips....hoping to avoid those this time.
4)Economical....we're buying everything all over again (beds, strollers, car seats, clothing...etc) so economical car seats would be wonderful. I love the Britax...but 200+ for each one would really be a TON of money right now.
Thanks!!!
