Holy Head Room Batman!

So today in a pinch I put DS in a Scenera that I have as a back-up at grandma's house (in her Toyota) and he has soooo much head room! I couldn't believe how much more room he has above his head in this seat than in his RA! Is it because there is no base and less padding on the Scenera? He would have years left rear-facing in this seat. Too bad I hate how it just seems like plastic and thin cloth...though it is a safe seat nonetheless. :)

No, the Scenera has a tall back, taller than the Roundabout, so kids WILL fit rear facing much longer in it normally than in a Roundabout (which is normally outgrown around 18 months to 2 years by height rear facing). Kids often reach the full 35 pounds in a Scenera because of its tall back. It is a barebones seat, though. That is for sure.
