Is Argos the one I have been reading about that keeps getting the same complaint of straps being to tight and uncomfortable for kids around the neck area? I think I've read people have been using socks for covers? and this seemed to help, Thats the only negative thing I've read so far, but havent researched the seat exclusively.

We just returned the maestro for this reason. Ridiculously tight on DS's neck.

The way the harness is threaded. I just don't like it, it seems like a Nautilus with the straps on the highest slot and then the headrest just moving. :thumbsdown:

but the Nautilus straps go up to the top of the shell, and then back down to the height you need. The Argos just did away with the rollers, plastic boxes to route through, and the weird headrest placement when you move up a slot. I did think the Argos was weird at first, but now I actually think it's an improvement over the GN's routing. :twocents:

That makes sense. I'll have to really play around with one.

Oooooh. So glad they changed that. That was definitely one of the things I didnt like about the seat.
