SR35 vs. OB35 - pics?

Carrie_R · Feb 21, 2011

Has anyone done comparison shots of their kiddo (preferably older infant) in SR35 and OB35? I have a friend looking at purchasing a larger carrier (her daughter is outgrowing their Combi - Centre I think) so ideally I'd have permission to share the pics with her, but even sharing my impressions would be ok.

Thanks!

I can get pix of a 16 month old if needed. I don't think i'll have the baby until friday though.

That would be great, thanks. Baby in question is almost a year, but she's a peanut. Mom says she has an inch growth room left in her Combi, and she's pretty savvy so it's likely she's right. Spreadsheets say she'd only get one extra inch in the OB and two in the SR, but I thought it was the other way around, so I thought pics might be helpful.

I don't know if it'll be helpful since A is huge, but I'll take him to model seats today and get some pictures.

If he fits, it will be great. I'd like them to get an idea of growth room, etc.

If it's not too much trouble, could you add the CCO to the list? (You have one, right?) If it's problematic don't worry about it at all.

Thank you so much!

not a problem, we'll go when he wakes up from his nap

Ok. So A is 16 months, has a 15 inch torso, 35 inches tall if I push down his hair and 31lbs all as of today.

This is the ob35 non air version as my bru didn't have the air in stock so I'm not sure if it makes a difference. A had almost exactly an inch of shell over his head in the ob35 however his shoulders were very squished. I was actually pretty impressed with this seat.

In the sr35 A has between a 1/2 inch and an inch of shell above his head and shoulders were also pretty squished.

The Cco he no longer uses because his weight bounces too close to the limit but he has close to two inches of shell above his head. He uses the third harness slots for rf and on both buckets he'd be on the top slots and well over them.

Note Cco picture is from a few months ago. I'd get a new one but it's in the van and the van is not at the house right now.

Thank you so much, Crystal! I'll pass this thread along to my friend, I'm very appreciative of your time!

(A is adorable, btw! I loooove the hair!
