The title tells it all. She was reading all the labels and looking very intently at it, focusing on that misleading "the only car seat you will ever need" info- so I just HAD to tell her how it would not last much past 2.5 yrs harnessed because of the low top slot height. She was aware of extended harnessing, so I told her to look into the Marathon or the Evenflo Triumph Advance. I did mention that the MA probably would be too big for a newborn. She was grateful for my advice. I told her I wasted enough money on my first Graco convertible seats (which I had two of anyway) to buy a Britax anyway! My good deed is done for the day, hehehehe.

well, I had two Comfortsports, which we loved, but were outgrown at age 2.5. I almost got a AO when we were looking in 2003, but decided I didn't like the chestclip, of all things!
