I searched and didn't find any discussions on this topic, so if there are, maybe someone can point me to them.
In the Frontier manual on pg. 4, it says the ears must be below the top of the harness shell AND the child must be below 53" AND the shoulders must be below the top harness slots. Fine and good.
My friend is a very experienced tech and owns a baby store. He had a customer come in with a child who was 49" tall and didn't meet the criterion of ears below the top of the seat. I know children are built differently (my ds has a freakishly long torso while my dd has my short torso), but can this be possible? Why do you think Britax would put the "ears below the shell" requirement in the manual?
I've only seen the seat in passing, really, and haven't put a child in it yet to know how one would really fit in it.
Thanks!
