This is totally an individual preference question
Personally the last couple of years I feel better with my kids in seats that are made from thicker plastics. I know there is no physical evidence available to us as consumers but there is just something about them that makes me feel they are "safer".
Seats like the Scenera, Maestro, Cosco harness boosters are just so flimsy it scares me. In my little head I feel like they wont protect my child as well as an RXT, Nautilus or Frontier. Having no ESP foam completely freaks me out but I know there is no proof behind that I just constantly think that if it did not make a difference then why would so many manufactures choose to add it??
Im really wanting to buy dd a Maestro to keep in my trunk that way I wont have to un-install her FR in my car or her GN in dh's car. I often go with a friend and transferring the FR is beyond annoying. I either have to plan a day ahead and take the GN from DH's truck or keep it un-installed, which leaves me constantly having to re-install whenever we all go in the Envoy
Its winter and I live in Michigan... no fun installing seats when you have 4 kids waiting to get in or out. I just like to get in and go
I dont want to spend another $100+ on something that will be used a few times a month, but then I cant help feel shes not as safe in such a flimsy seat.
How do y'all personally feel about seats with the thinner plastic and less/no ESP foam???
