DD and I were grocery shopping at Meijer this morning. (Meijer is a big MI-based chain with stores in MI, OH, IN, KY, and I'm not sure where else ... ) We went through the car seat section, as we always do because DD begs me to. I expected to see the usual collection - HBBs, a couple of cheap infant seats, an AOE, a 5-pt Scenera, a couple of combination seats, etc. Imagine my surprise when I saw not only the Daisy Daze Scenera but also the Nautlus! I think it was the Bravo cover but I'm really not sure.
Of course, I didn't have DS with me - I actually really want to try him in this seat. (He has been asking for a harnessed seat for our secondary car - and I may just grant his request. He's only got a 16" torso, so he'd have plenty of room in a Nautilus/Radian/Frontier etc.) But DD fit quite well with the harness on the lowest slots. She liked it and seemed very cozy. She is 27 lbs and about 35".
Not sure how I would feel about it for a bigger kid. I'm not wild about the huge arm rests, and I wonder how the padding will be with the headrest all the way up. I'll actually have a chance to try him in one tomorrow, so we shall see.
Anyway, I was very pleased to see some decent seats at Meijer!
