We tried it in the store. Here's my 26lb 37.5 in tall 4 year old in the truefit. She's petite and very slender.

My daughter isn't quite that petite, but here is her at about 7 weeks and then in my signature she's around 16 months old or so. I was worried the shoulder straps would be too wide on her as she is long but thin, but they were fine. I've been happy with the fit. In the siggie picture she's probably around 20 pounds (the stats are not current).

Here is Nour at 2 years, 10 months. I think she was about 27-28 lbs. then.

Here she is just a couple of weeks after she and Zain turned 3 and the first time they went FF full time in their mom's van:

And at 3 years, 2.5 months and probably around 29-30 lbs, still RF in my vehicle:

She is now 3 years, 9 months old and around 30 lbs still, and very, very thin and petite. As of today, she is now riding in a Graco Argos in her mom's van.

ETA: Somehow I missed that post by Lenae with the link, where I think I already posted pics.

Hmmmm. I'm thinking that a TF would be just wayyyyyy too much seat for my DD. Too wide. Maybe FF for my DS2 though.

Thanks for the pics!!

I really disliked the TF for my tiny kids. The infant padding helped, and my kids are skinny and don't hit the 22lb max for the padding until after 2, but the seat is really very wide and there's a lot of extra space. DD slumped way over to sleep.
