Did we decide if the Galaxy Nautilus is cushier than Bravo/Matrix?

Now that I've seen the photos of the Frontier, I've decided to just go with another Nautilus. It is so much cheaper, and I'll get the Monterey for a booster when the harness is outgrown. I have Matrix already, and wondering whether I should just get another, or is the Galaxy more padded? I know it has the same mesh fabric for the main part of the seat, and the softer fabric on the outer edges, but I'm hoping it is more padded. Anyone know? I could get the Matrix for cheaper since Amazon always has no tax and free shipping, but I'd pay more if the Galaxy cover is better. Help please!

I saw a Galaxy Nautilus last week and didn't think it was any more padded than my Bravo which is the same as Matrix, just darker. If so, it was a very little bit. I wouldn't pay more for it. The other difference, besides fabric, is that the Galaxy doesn't have the sticker (or whatever) that says 65 pounds.

Thanks! Dd wants to match her sister anyway, so I'll prob just get another Matrix. I already showed her the Galaxy and said it was comfier, lol, and she still said she wanted the same one as her sister has.

I also looked at the Galaxy Nautilus at the local BRU a few days ago, and agree that it didn't look all that different than the Walmart (Bravo) version in terms of padding. The main material is that same meshy stuff too, but a somewhat different shade of gray, I guess. I do like the fact that it doesn't have the 65lb and 100lb logos on the fabric, but that seemed to be about the only difference.
