I'm looking to get a combo seat for my nephew to replace/be a backup for his Triumph. I love how easy it is to install and make sure he is strapped in correctly. My brother is completely car seat incompetent (and has no interest in changing this about himself), so it really needs to be idiot-proof.
The reason to get a new one is that they are starting to think his current seat is too bulky. He's 2y3m, 35+pounds, tall, and FF. He only has the one seat and it's moved a lot and does get heavy and cumbersome...my SIL made a comment about "just putting him in a booster soon." EEK! NOPE! Lol
I would like something that will transition to a good booster when the time comes, but I don't mind buying him a dedicated booster (much!) down the road either.
Is the maestro almost as easy as the Triumph to install? I would also ideally love something with the same no-re thread harness (super easy, ya know?) but I want it to be lightweight too...preferably lighter than the triumph. I think I could drill it into their heads to keep the straps above his shoulders...
Throw some suggestions at me please!
Budget-wise, I'd like to keep it under $150, but would spend more for the perfect seat
