Question FR80 vs BLVD70 for sleeping

Lemonade · May 15, 2011

Does anyone have both where they could measure the distance between the headwings? I can do this at BRU this week but was just wondering. It's going to be summer road trip season soon. At least 6 trips of 6+ hours. DD it totally fine in the FR80 but the whole neck kinking to the side thing bothers me - just my own crazies

- so I was thinking about getting her a BV70 to be more reclined and have closer headwings. Plus, I haven't bought a new seat in a long time.

Sure do! Well, the FR85 and a BV70.

BRB with measurements!!!!

Narrowest to widest
FR 85....8" - 11"
BV70.....7" - 10"

Thanks! I will have to stick her in it and see if the inch makes a difference. I do prefer the leg support of the FR to the BLVD...I wonder if her legs would bother her hanging off.

I think the wings on the BV are deeper then on the FR. So, I do think they offer more support. Plus, you can use the BV in recline mode which is more reclined than the FR.

True

I'll see how she fits. I have an RA50 (yes, old style but still a BRTX convertible) and even in the upright mode it's so much more reclined, but doesn't have the support of the wings.
