My 28 month old DS is currently RF in a Britax Blvd. He's actually already at the top of the shell for RF in that seat. I'd like to continue having him RF, so I started looking at other taller shell convertible seats. I've read a lot about the Diono Radians and tried DS out in an RXT model the other day. He's actually only about an inch away from the top of the shell in the Radian!
I don't know if I sat him in that seat incorrectly or not, but it doesn't make sense how he's just at the top of the shell in the Blvd, but only 1 inch away from the top of the shell in the Radian. I thought there was more of a height difference in these seats. I also found on Diono's website where it says you can RF until your child is 44inches.
So, what is the actual RF height requirement for this seat- 1 inch to top of shell or 44 inches? Is it possible I somehow did something wrong when trying him out in the seat the other day. He's tall, but I thought a lot of 3 & 4 year olds can RF in that seat. If it helps at all, I can measure his torso for your guys. Thanks for any help you can give!
