great thing at the store today- rep was there

Today i went to Great Beginnings and the owner was there (talked to him before great guy) and also a rep for SKJP was there. One of the people that work there that know me said that i have the seat and he asked me what i thought of it and i told him that i liked it because of how narrow it was and i liked how tall the top slots were but my godson was about to outgrow it and i DID NOT WANT TO USE IT past the top slots. I also told him about the harness and how it has started to fray on some seats because the buckle was too small for it and they both looked at that seat and others and agreed that it looked more narrow for the straps. I also said how i didn't like that the harness was bolted to the seat and if you needed to replace the harness for some reason you couldn't and you had to buy a new seat. He thanked me for my help and said he liked hearing what people say about the seat. Not sure he will do anything about the problems but the more we say it than maybe someone will hear. But i forgot to ask about if they could do testing with the long belt path.

O and a side note for anyone that lives near here i was with the boys and Drew was in the ergo and he asked about it because they are thinking about carrying it in the store and all i had to say was good things about it and he was happy about that. So anyone that was looking at it but was not sure because it is not cheap and not sure how it feels can now go there and try it.

So overall i think it was a great day and i am happy with myself. I am most the time hard to say anything to someone.

Awesome! I'm so glad SK is taking the time and effort to hear us...they are improving a lot, it just takes time to tweak seats (I grouse about their current issues, but really don't have anything against them, since they are trying SO hard ).

Glad you put in a good word for the Cargo, too...when I worked at Lullaby Lane I BEGGED them to carry it (because the only combo seat they had was the Eddie Bauer in Leather? 199 for a seat with 15 inch top slots? NOT cool!), and it sold like wildfire

Hopefully they not only listen to your complaints but they do something about them! Good for you for speaking up, I am glad that you did!

No not the cargo. I think they already have that seat. The ergo back/ front and side carrier. They are thinking about selling that soon

I am happy with myself for speaking up. I told him i liked the seat but there where some things that needed to be fixed.

Good for you! I hope they listen. I have a funny feeling they are; in which case, I will have more respect for SKJP as a company.

LOL Carseats on my brain.... Actually, I think trying to get them to carry the Ergo is even cooler than the Cargo

LOng Belt Path Radian with larger chest clip/no bolted straps = DREAM COME TRUE!
