Foonf info

jubgulia · Jul 9, 2011

From the Strolling In Style Facebook page:

It's not coming out until next March..It's still in development. From what I know it's forward facing seat. You can rear face but only with a separately sold adapter. I didn't ask for weights, but I can get back to you on that.

-Foonf will have same colour shell and fabric combinations as Oobr
-Max weights and heights are still being tweaked. Expected RF weight is 40 lbs. Expected top shoulder height will be between 16" and 17" (seated shoulder height)

From NessaLee Baby:

Early 2012, Clek plans to release their Foonf seat. Sounds a little funny, but that's just it: it's fun! Foonf is a play on the German word for 5 because this seat will mark the debut of Clek's 5-point safety harness. The look will be modeled after the extremely popular Oobr booster seat, but the weight minimum is expected to start around 15 lbs., making it the perfect option after your infant carrier. It's expected to have front and rear-facing capability and will take you right up until your child is ready to move into a booster seat, which we of course recommend the Oobr for!

Sort of contradictory info, no?

It can rear-face, but only with an adaptor? 15-lb minimum? Weird.

Yeah, I know.

Hopefully it'll turn out good.

It sounds similar to the Orbit Toddler Car Seat with its 15 lb lower weight. I imagine it's to encourage rf after the infant seat.

I applaud them for showing some cojones in bucking the trend of saying a seat can be used from 5 lbs, but only with the shoulders above the bottom slots, thus making it pretty much a lie...

I just KNEW foonf meant five, just KNEW it

Cool update, thanks.

I hope they have a tan one, and it fits in a MINI Cooper (for the grandbaby-to-be, of course

)

I don't like that the RF adapter is separate. I think it sends the wrong message to many parents.

I wonder if the RF "adapter" is like a Radian boot?

Bonus points if it's adjustable.

And crossing my fingers for a Paul Frank print.

Sounds interesting. I hope they include the RF adaptor. That doesn't make sense to me. And a Paul Frank convertible would be so fun'

They better include the rf adapter or the regular people out there imo aren't going to use it and just ff, which would just be silly.

It would be really cool to have a monkey seat

Hmmm. Guess someone is in for a disembowelment.
