Question How much leg room do you lose with the angle adjuster?

I know safety isn't an issue with cramped legs and kids don't usually mind but my daughter has a good bit less leg room in her radian than her EB 3n1 (AOE) and she has noticed it. I assumed I would get an angle adjuster but I'm afraid it will cut the space down even more. Anyone compared?

I didn't find that it makes a huge difference in leg room. But I also usually recline the seat back a little bit.

Okay, I may still get one to have. I was surprised at the difference in leg room between the two seats.

When you say you recline the seat are you just talking about pushing on the back of the seat while tightening or do you actually have the bottom of the boot not touching?

No I mean the vehicle seat, I recline the seat back a little bit before I install it, it seems to give my kids more leg room :)

Ahhh ok, I was thinking it was not allowed or safe to recline the radian but was wondering if I missed something. Haha! My rear seat in the Volvo doesn't recline so I can't do that... Oh well! She's getting used to it.

I think it depends on the vehicle seat. I loose a lot in my bucket seats that are angled even with the back of the seat reclined, it's just very upright. In the 3rd row where the seats are flat there is a lot more leg room. My 2 yr old loves it back there, she has a better view of the road more leg room and she can touch the speaker where the horrible kid music that keeps her happy comes from. I'd leave her back there if she could just buckle herself.
