I had an almost 6 yr old in my van yesterday in my Evenflo Bolero. She is 40 lbs and still fits harnessed. I couldn't believe it and of course the only pics I have are in a regular camera. She said she liked it and enjoyed helping do up the harness. This is a child who normally rides with just a seatbelt and legally here she can since she is over 5 yrs old. Glad that in my vehicle at least she is safer.

Yes, my granddaughter will be 6 in a few weeks and is 38 lbs. (Crossing my fingers she maintains for awhile!)

She still has an inch or so in the Bolero, the Chase and the Cargo, which we have as spares. I have heard that most kids outgrow them by height before weight but not all! ;)

My kids outgrew their cargos by weight first. Actually, my 46lb ds would still fit in it by height if he hadn't outgrown it by weight first.

Yeah, my oldest outgrew the Cargo by weight at age 4, he would have fit the harness until he was 6 years old.
I like to say this as often as possible, apparently. lol.

I think it's other seats that kids tend to outgrow by height before weight. Like most convertibles because the harness height is lower, and the HWH seats. The cargo would be an awesome seat (still a crappy booster), if we had that extra eight lbs. BUT NOOOOOOOOO.
