This is my first post here and I am SO happy to have found this site. What a great resource! I have spent hours researching & trying to come to a conclusion on what to do, but I'm about ready to throw in the towel and just buy the first crappy booster seat I see and be done with it...well, I won't do that, but it's a little tempting.
I have a 4 1/2 year old who is 43" tall & 41 lbs. which means she has officially outgrown her...Crappysport, I think it's been called? Last spring I did some looking because I knew this time was getting close, but I got really discouraged with what was available so I gave up. And now I'm paying for it and I'm panicking!
I really don't want to put her in a booster seat. But, I don't have the funds for a Regent or Radian right now. And I have severe reservations about the Apex/Biltmore/Seat-of-many-names. And she seems to be at that point where there are no other options. And I wish I could see some seats in person and try them out with my child, but the choices where I live are less than stellar.
So, anyway, thanks for letting me get that off my chest. Any suggestions or commiserating comments are welcome.
