Thank you!
I just love it!! He is a little under harness position now but has plenty of room to grow.

Install was not easy. My first time took me 20 mins. I read the manual and then watched the video on install. It is Rock solid.
Thanks to you all my kids have great seats and mom feels good about travel.

He's a cutie!

It may be the position of the harness pads in the picture, but the harness looks fairly close to his shoulders. How does it look one slot up?

It is close. 1/2 in maybe. But I have to go home and uninstall and put the seat in dhs explorer. I will raise it then.

I just love this seat.

What a handsome little guy!

My poor FR85 is still sitting empty in the back of my car. I am definitely getting Zain this weekend so he can try it out!

Mine installed easily enough with LATCH so I was happy about that.

Yeah my chunkamonka is 47-49 lbs given the day. I did install with latch just to bring it home safe unoccupied. So they are used. Lol.

Took me a while. I kept twisting the belt in the back. But I love how secure it feels.

How tall is he?

I don't know. But when he gets home from my parents I will measure him again. He has gotten taller and not gained weight.

It just kills me that my other son was harnessed til his 7th birthday.

He sure is a cutie pie! My son is 5, a little over 44" tall & is about 38lbs fully dressed. He is a big boy for sure. I would have guessed he was the same age as my son.

Most people do. When I say he is only 3 they look at me like I am crazy.

I am going away overnight and decided to install the GN in dhs explorer. It is the seat he is familiar with so I know E will be in okay.

Did i mention that my mom let E have ice cream in his seat yesterday? Yeah. Only on arm rest but still. Argh

A GN. I love that seat but he is just too big. He probably only had a few more months to harness in it.
