RF/FF seat recommendation?

Mommy!

Hi,

I was hoping someone could recommend a good, reasonable cost seat (maybe $200 max?) for DS2.

We are replacing after a collision and the insurer will cover up to about $200ish. His current seat was a Safety First Alpha Omega and right now he is at it's limits (shoulders even with top slot). He's FF and when he moves to a booster we will buy a seperate booster (probably a Graco Turbo HBB, like DD and DS1 ride in). He will be five in a month and is ready for a booster, and has riden in his siblings' before. Belt fit is excellent and he sits correctly and stays that way.

He weighs about 52 lbs and wears a size 6 shirt. We'd like the new seat to be one that can rear face as long as possible as baby #4 is due any day now and this seat would be passed onto baby within a year. Our kids tend to be pretty tall.

I heard some good things about the Evenflo Sureride, is there anything else to consider? Thanks! We would likely order from TRU online.

Edit: oops your in Canada! The ones I previously suggested (Graco Size4Me and Graco Milestone) aren't available there yet... But an FYI about the SureRide it only lasts kids rf to 40' Not sure if there is another longer lasting convertible in your price range. The only other one I can think of off the top of my head is the Britax Click Tight Marathon or Boulevard, but thats double your price range :(

I would buy him a Parkway Booster and save for the baby's seat (I would save for a Britax CT Marathon for the baby -- over budget, but you have time to save)
