Versa tether

tl01 · Jul 21, 2013

Just needed to vent for a moment. I just wanted to let everyone know that I really don't like the versa tether. There must be something awesome about it compared to a regular tether... When it is used correctly. When checking other people's seats I rarely encounter one that isn't twisted... And I personally find it to be difficult to work with. On the Frontier 90 it is causing new issues for me. What can't they just use a normal tether so that one aspect of car seats is standardized?

Am I the only one?

I'm seeing a lot of head restraints that don't have posts these days - like it's a big camel hump if a head rest. In those instances I really love the V shaped tether on a Britax. It saves me from having to put a tether over a big tall hump, which I find a little irritating depending on how things stack up.

As for twisted, yes, many times I show people how things can be more tidy with just a few seconds of untwisting. But on my list of things that parents do that make me scratch my head, a twisted V shaped tether is low on the list. I do see your point, though.

So all in all I'd say I'm in the camp of liking the Britax one. The Diono one does make things interesting sometimes, though. Like for example a camel hump headrest.. oh boy.

Yes... I can see how with those camel hump headrests it helps... It seems most of the cars I work on, they have removable or at least ones on posts.
