65 lb 3 year old...

featherhead · May 23, 2015

I'm trying to help a woman with a very large 3 year old. She has her in an AOE, but the belt fit is not good. Which booster would work well for a bigger young child? She is quite chubby, so I'm not sure how she would fit in a seat like the TB.

What's her budget? I don't suppose a FR90 is an option?

I know someone with a son who just turned 3 and is 65 lbs.
I think he's in a Radian, but it's not the best fit I guess since he is chubby. So it's not just a 65 lb. child, but one who is 3 and not super tall, so I imagine any seat would be a tough fit due to chubbiness.

We are in Canada, so all our harnessed seats top out at 65 lbs max. She has no choice but to booster. She sent me another pic of her in her brother's backless booster (Evenflo I think) and the fit was actually really good. She is going to try to buy a booster with a back, and send me more pictures. The AOE gave a really good shoulder belt fit, but the lap belt was not good.

What about a Parkway? Or is that over the budget?

I didn't actually ask her for a budget, so I'm not sure.

Any idea how tall she is?

What about the Cambria? It seems pretty roomy compared to some of the other hbbs.

I forget the exact number she told me, but it was over 100 cm, maybe 105. So she is on the tall side, but still a lot of weight for her height.

Prescription for a 86-y?
