Is it difficult to tighten the harness when your child is buckled?

We had a Comfortsport we used as a backup and I always had to tighten the harness before buckling DS in since it was nearly impossible to tighten otherwise. It was a real pain. DS will be outgrowing his Evenflo Triumph V soon and this would be the perfect next seat for him if it isn't too hard to tighten.

Thanks.

Nope, I have used both a CS and a CarGo... This is definitely like adjusting the CarGo... VERY smooth tightening, even with my son's bulky sweater!

I read through all posts in all threads, and can't seem to find top slot height? How does it compare to Radian & Marathon, which we both have?

Looks good for tall kids and I have 2 of those! Tiger :)

I believe they said the Nautilus was 18 top harness slot
Marathon = 17 inches
Radian = 18 inches (but allows up to 1 inch over top slot)

Check out this thread for comparison pictures between radian, regent and nautilus. It looks like kids will get a good amount of time longer in it than the radian and probably close to the same amount of time as the regent.

There's also some info in the CDN forum about it's arrival here in case you haven't seen it yet. :)

Thanks so much! I was reading through all of the posts with the baby crawling up my lap (I had multiple windows open), so I must have missed it! Thanks so much!

We just bought our DD4 (very long torso) the Britax Parkway for my hubby's van - she is doing very well with it, as we knew she would, but would love to get her back in a harnessed seat for his car (she rides in the Radian in my van), so I think we'll have to try her out in this seat, as it looks fabulous! She probably won't be happy about having to give up her new Parkway seat, but we'll pack it away for her until she needs it.

Tiger :)
