Sam in the Zeus...

Went to the Denver Kids Expo today... they had a bunch of fun things for the kids to do and Combi had a table there. I've never seen a Zeus in person so we checked it out for a minute. HOLY HEAVY SEAT. That was the first thing that surprised me, was how heavy it was just moving it from the table to the floor. I made Sam sit in it real quick, not the best picture but even when I got him to sit all the way back in it, he was definitely too tall to RF in it (he's 3 1/2, 32# and 39") and probably wouldn't be able to FF for long in it either.

Another thing I thought was interesting - I tried to buckle him, and it WAS on the lowest harness position but I pulled ALL the slack out of the harness and I couldn't even buckle him, it was too tight. I'm not sure if I was doing it wrong or if it was because of the harness position or what, but my kid is pretty small haha, I thought that was strange.

The swivel IS pretty freaking cool though, I have to admit lol.

I also looked at the Kobuk and was surprised by how slim it is. No picture, but Sam is a small kid and he really filled it in, I couldn't see a more broad kid fitting it it at all. I was also really disappointed by this picture for the Kobuk in their product brochure:

It also says in the brochure suitable for kids 3 & up, which was a bummer too. That kid isn't even TWO though, for crying out loud.
