Hi, my name is Kellie. I found your awesome site and have read through so many posts. I was hoping someone would be able to help me find a car seat for my daughter.
I need to purchase two new car seats as my tall daughter is now shoulder level with the top shoulder straps in her Boulevard and close to being too tall for her Triumph. She has always been over 100% on the growth chart for height, but compounding that is the fact that she has short legs and a long torso. So I feel kind of stuck. I don't want to put her in a booster until I absolutely have to, but at this rate I feel like she will be in a booster when she is 3.
Is the Regent my only option to keep her in a 5 point harness as long as possible? She is only 30 pounds, so she is skinny too. The Regent just seems so huge and has no side impact protection so I am pretty bummed about giving up her Boulevard for a monster that seems less safe.
Is there a car seat that goes as tall as the regent but has side impact protection or at least is not so wide?
I am looking at the Signo as well but I saw that I would get an extra torso inch out of the regent and for the price I am not sure what to do.
I have a Cadillac SRX so I am not even sure the Regent will fit. I know it will definitely not fit in my husbands truck (a Chevy Colorado).
I was looking at the Safeguard Go but it looks like the torso height is only 17 inches on that seat as well. Can anyone confirm that for me? I can't find it on their mfg website.
So, I guess my big question is if anyone has any advice on which seat to get for a super tall two year old with a long torso?
