Hi all
Wondered if someone could help me. We are soon to visit my sister who lives in Canada. We want her to purchase a car seat for us. Our son is 3 (about 9 centile so smaller than average for his age) - I need to weigh him but here in the UK he is still doing well in his up to 18KG car seat. We require rear facing as long as possible - are they all to 18KG in CAnada too then some switch to forward facing? I also want our equivalent of ISOFIX - where it fixes to bar of car. Is that LATCH in Canada and is this the safest?
I know you have so many choices there. We would like a reasonable priced seat $100-$150 if possible, rear facing and LATCH. Convertible would be good as we will be using again when he is older. My problem is that I do not know which are compatible with my sister and brother in laws cars. They have a 2010 colbalt chevrolet and a 2003 Cadillac deville. It is more important that it fits the Chevrolet. When we visited previously we had a Evenflo Sureride DLX convertible I think. For those of you wondering - we are using the CARES seatbelt for the flight.
Thanks for any advice.
