Special Tomato MPS Car Seat

I noticed there isn't much information about the Special Tomato MPS car seat on here, so I thought I would try and help out anyone who wants to know about it!
We have both a size small with both regular and extended seat and an size large with both small and extended seat!

Here is a picture of my 6 year old son in the size large. He has the extended seat in use, but he is quite large for his age. My 6 year old daughter (a bit short for her age) fits on a lower setting of the size small with non extended seat.



Size small with daughter in it without being in car.


The tray and foot rest are not approved for use in a vehicle.
The seats themselves are made of a plastic material, and the cushions are pretty squishy. They are comfortable!

My 15 year old son is able to fit in the size large with it on highest settings.

The seats can be used as car seat, on home base, or in a stroller.
The harness is kind of a pain IMO because the buckles fall down into cushions a lot and the adjusters are on each shoulder strap. The harness is a continuous harness. It also has no official harness hole heights. It is a large slit for each, and then the height of the back cushion determines the height of the harness.

Adding to info above:

The seat is approved for airline use.

It is heavy and requires special top tether hardware after a certain weight (sorry, can't remember the #).

It is a TALL seat with a high base (think MA) so it will not work well in smaller sedans. As a result of the height, one of my friends grew too big for caregivers to lift her in/out of the seat before she outgrew the seat itself.

Provides good support and because the seat pad and back pad are installed with velcro, it's easy to adjust/tweak the positioning/support the seat provides.

It works great on the beach (the rubbery/plastic materials doesn't soak up liquid) but cleaning the sand out of the velcro is a PITB.

Thanks! I've always been curious about this seat. Your kids are adorable!
