Anyone have experience with all?
Little man is almost 5 months old, weighs almost 13lbs and wears 0-3 month clothes. Big sister is a pretty petite 5 year old. He will be here 5 days a week, 9 hours a day. When talking about field trips mom said she's fine with it, but would prefer him in an infant seat instead of a convertible. I tried to explain that both are equally safe, but she would feel more comfortable with a bucket. He is still a big sleeper. I told mom I don't have an infant seat and would need to purchase one. Mom said she'd be willing to pay half for a seat or up to $100 whichever is less.
The shuttle 35 is on sale at amazon for $150ish and I have prime.
I'm waiting to hear back from cybex about their tech program so I'm not sure of pricing for the aton, or crunchy has an aton in swap (although i really like the black handle better than the white.)
The b safe is $133 on amazon with prime and would coordinate and click into my b agile stroller. Although the b safe is pretty similar to the keyfit and the keyfit rarely puzzles well with the other seats I have.
ETA: I'd use mom's seat, but it's a nearly expired (has about 4 months left on it) sr22 from when she had her daughter 5 years ago and he does not fit well in it, but considering this is the first time I've talked to mom, I decided it wasn't time to bring that up.
