I'm getting ready to purchase a Foonf for my daughter, because she is 23 months and 3 pounds away from outgrowing her Diono Radian. I just wanted to make sure that no one has had issues getting a Foonf into a Forester? Thanks!

I have an 09 Forester and a very early Foonf (I preordered). RF outboard is no problem. RF center I had the best luck using the lock off on the opposite side of the seat belt buckle. I used to squat in the Foof to squish down the hump in the Forester seat to get it in nice and tight. RF killed several lock offs but Clek always sent me new ones for free. The lock offs may be different now. You don't have to use them but I couldn't get a tight installation without one.

I was just thinking, if you are only going to have one kid and keep them in the center, you may want to go with a Fllo. You will never benefit from REACT FF in the center position since there is no LATCH but could benefit from EACT with the Fllo.
