So I got one of these when they were $50 at Kmart. I really hate the way DD fits in the snugride and I wanted front adjust.
But I have some issues with it. The sides and basically the whole shell is super thin and really flimsy. Like beside the baby's head the seat will really wiggle back and forth several inches. Which makes the foam squeak. I got the cover off and the shell is sooooo thin. So when I install it, it ends up smashed tightly against DS2's XTSL. The XTSL pushes on it so much it actually narrows the interior of the seat. Other seats I've installed there kinda push on each other but this one has so much give the XTSL pushes on it alot.
So yeah, this makes me really nervous. DD fits awesome in the harness. The second slots are just below her shoulders and in the closest slot the crotch strap is perfect. In the snugride she's not quite to the bottom slots and there is a mile of room between her and the crotch strap. I'm just not comfortable with her in it yet. I tried her in our backup Titan and I hate her fit in that too.
So I guess I'm asking how you would feel about the flimsy sides? If I could install it with out being side-by-side I would but that's not an option. I'm still just kinda shocked how thin the sides are.
