Graco changes forward facing height limit on Size4Me
Hi everyone,
Wow I've been busy today!
Graco posted today that the forward facing height limit has
increased to 52" (not sure what it was previously). Yay!
They also posted information regarding the challenges parents have found in tightening the harness and posted tips that most of us already know.
My recommendation: If using rear facing, see if you can pull any slack out from the back of the seat, then pull the strap.
Additionally, I'd like to point out that although there is no longer the 40" rear facing height limit, the 1" rule from the top of the head rest also does not apply to this seat.
The new recommendation is that the child will outgrow the seat by height when rear facing when the child's head is less than an inch below the bottom part of the red harness height adjuster at the top of the head rest. Don't freak everyone, this is still over 27" seated height!!!!
ETA: How could I forget...Graco now allows either crotch buckle position to be used for rear facing mode. No need to worry if the buckle is underneath your child, just move it to the one father out!
Happy reading!
