I stumbled into the international thread by accident and fell in love with this seat. Anything like this is America??

It kinda looks like the Babytrend Fastback at Babies R Us

That must be what it was. I knew there was a seat like that at Target briefly, but couldn't remember the name

What features on it do you like in particular? That will help people come up with an alternative for you. Additionally, the age, height (and torso height or shirt size) and weight of the child that needs to go in the seat would be useful too.

Dd is 4 yo 34lbs 39inches tall. Wears a 4-5t shirt and 4-5 t pants

I really like the head piece. I feel like it would really help if she fell alseep in it. I like the combination factor of harness and then later seat belt

Doesn't look like the Fastback to me at ALL. Looks kind of like the Ferrari thing that looks cool but actually sucks.


OP check out the Recaro Prosport, you'd probably like it.

My kids sleep great in the Frontier 85. They slept in the nautilus too but got head slump. It didn't bother them really but they prefer the Frontier now.

I wish there was a place I could go to try them out but we live in the middle of nowhere Missouri.

I believe you are correct. I was very curious of another FP/Britax seat being available so I did some digging around and it appears the same manufacturer is for Ferrari and these Fisher Price seats.

If you are referring to the Ferrari or Babytrend seat I would probably pass as I haven't seen much of any mention of them around here which leads me to believe they aren't so great. Recaros in my experience are hard to find in stores, but you could order from Amazon or Diapers.com that have free return shipping.

Yeah I was thinking of the recaro. It doesn't have a recline though does it. I like the recline to help give them more of a recline to help against head slump

Frontier 85 has a recline block.

Recaro will send you a recline bar all you have to do is ask. That's IF you get one made in the last like 2 months which doesn't have a recline bar because all the ones before that had them!

The Babytrend TrendZ EuroSport looks very similar. It was sold at Target but if I remember correctly is wasn't a great seat. I don't know if it's available for purchase anymore.

Okay awesome. Any pictures of that ? It won't be for a little bit that we get one since the symphony still fits her good

The ferrari, Nania, and, Euro Fisher price seats are all made by Team Tex. They're really cheaply made, imo.
