Went to BRU and tried out the Graco Smart Seat over the weekend. It fit all 3 kids well in the store and my 5 yr old had at least 3 inches of harness height left. It didn't seem to push their heads forward at all and picky 5 yr old liked it. Not as cushy as the Britax or TF, but no bumps to rub and more padding than a Scenera or CA. Overall I was very impressed. It is a wide seat though.
Installed the base in our van with seat belt. Wish I would have had time to install the whole seat and also to try it in the back bench that has forward of bight seat belts. I think that this might actually fit in the center back and not have trouble with our 50/50 seat plastic interfering with install.
I can't wait until the weather is warmer so I can go try it out again.
Think I have it narrowed down to this one and/or a B830 by compass (depending how it fits) when it comes out.
