What is the difference? Because Olivia has more room in the DLX then the LX...
DLX
Here is the DLX version

And the LX version

And here is the Britax MA70 that she is pretty much outgrown RFing

And the Myride which I have but I wanted to take a pic in the store for reference on how much room she had compared to the others.

I have to get her a new seat. She is 28lbs and 2 1/2 (she will be 3 in Aug) I want to RF as long as possible. So it is really between the TF and the Momentum DLX. One goes to 35lbs and one to 40...so she would have 7 more lbs in the TF and 12 more in the Momentum with about an inch less for height. What would you go with??

The DLX has surelatch and the LX has alligator style latch connectors(which I personally like better). Did you try it with out the infant padding? That might give a little more room. Its strange that she fits different because the latch connectors are the only thing that is different between the lx and dlx.

Yeah with both the seats I took out the infant padding. Its so weird because in the store it looked different too...its not just the picture. I went back and forth a few times...is the seat bucket part deeper maybe??

They are the same seat other than the latch connectors, my son fit the same in both when I tried before buying:confused: We also took off the head pillow, in the pic it looks like maybe she isn't sitting back all the way but its hard to know.

That aside, my 5 yr old is just now at the RF height limit for my momentum lx but he is over the RF weight limit(his stats are in my siggy) and he weighed 31lbs at 2.5 (he is long and lean) just for size reference. I haven't had a TF but I know that all of my kids would have outgrown it be weight long before height. Your daughter would probably last a pretty long time in it though since she is just 28 lbs now.
