My son is a year old this month and is 18+ lbs and is at the highest slot (or mark) on his Chaperone but he just got there so he has a bit of time yet.
Our requirements are
- some side impact protection
- anti rebound rear facing
- comfort (kid is sweaty and actually hates getting in the carseat now) both rear facing and forward facing
- rear facing as long as possible
- ease of insulation is a BIG plus but not that big of a deal
The seat will go into a 2007 Odyssey LX (no leather) in the passenger side captains seat (primarily, I move him to the third row on occasion). Our back up car is a 2000 Camry (no latch) but he is RARELY in that. Big brother is in Frontier 85 SICT in drivers side 3rd row.
I have looked around and it looks like to me my only options are the Advocate, Rainier, and Foonf is that right? My older son had a Radian (with some letters after it... forget what they were right now, we were in an accident September of 2011 and got rid of that seat then) and I know they said that it was awful forward facing because the kid had to sit straight up basically. No recline. I would rather not have a seat like that.
Is there anything coming out soonish that might work better for me?
Thank you for the help!
