I was searching Craigslist this morning and found somebody selling a Britax Wizard. She states in her post that straps can easily be adjusted to fit a bulky winter coat. I nicely e-mailed her and asked could she change the wording or at least tell the buyer that bulky clothing is not recommended. Her response:
"I appreciate your concern but these are straps that are men to tighten up to the point of where you can only get you finger width worth of room when you are done with the tightening. Have you ever used a britax? If not it is hard to explain to you what I mean so I will make sure the buyer knows how to use the strap system appropriately. Have a great day!"
So, I looked up on the Britax website the manual. It does NOT say not to use bulky clothing. In fact it says to adjust straps according to what clothes child is wearing, as winter clothes will vary from summer. EEK!
Is this true? Did I just learn something new?
