We realized that we were soon going to need two car seats (a spare for DH's car) so we went to see if the MA fit before I ordered the FPSV online. We got there and were told that due to liability they no longer allow you to try seats in your car. I asked, what do you want me to do? Buy 2/3 seats, go to my car, open them up, take brand new seats out of the packaging, try them out, turn around and return them??? She said, yeah you could do that.
When I shop for anything I always make sure I grab one that hasn't been opened. Like I would buy a car seat that looked like it had been opened. I think the whole thing is stupid. If they are worried about liability why don't they just have a short waiver to make you sign first.
THEN I asked about the harness height on the Evenflo and she went and looked and said it accomodated a 50" child. I asked what about the Decathalon. She goes and looks, comes back, and says I think its 65". Ummmm wow 5' 5" huh? I could practically fit
After that we just left. My husband said she was confused with the weight. I said I know she was using the weight number on the decathalon (I believe the box on the Evenflo says 50#/50"/97% of 5 yo) but she was definitely using it for a height.
So they had no MA because of the recalls and we ended up going to Target, buying a MA, trying it out, and returning it right away. Then I came home and ordered the FPSV.
Sorry for the vent, I'm just still irritated this morning.
