Well, I got to not liking the color of the parlsey green titan so I took it back and was going to get the raceway one at toys-r-us. But they didn't have any!! And the target didn't either! So I tried burlington coat factory, thinking I'll just open the box to check the date but they only had this brown color I didn't like either. By this point I'm like oh crap I gotta drive all around town just because I didn't like the color. But then I noticed burlington had their EFTA for $119. I got the dark grey one, harbortown. I know I said before I didn't want one but I'm going to give it a try. When I told DH I got a different seat he told me I have a problem and I need to decide on one seat. He just walked away when I said I wanted to get an EFTA for his car too. :rolleyes: I hope I have an easy install!

let us know how it goes... and tell him that you don't have a problem... that for the same price as you spent on the original seat, you got one with taller top slots that will last longer.

and let us know how you like it this time.

Okay, I know the EFTA is supposed to be better than the Titan as far as growing room but when I put DS in it to see how he fit, I REALLY don't like it. My DS is small and the red tabs dug into his neck so bad he had red marks after just a few minutes and was screaming his head off and he never cried with the Titan. I also hate the harness, it would really rather have slots than the way the EFTA is. And install was a pain. I'm thinking this will not work for us and I'm going to take it back and get a titan again. I don't much care about the low harness slots, when he outgrows it I'll get something like the Nautilus that will convert to booster. Sorry all you EFTA fans, I just like the Titan better.

I'm kinda glad you didn't like it. Now I don't feel so alone in liking my Titan :) DD is small (10th percentile) and she has plenty of growing room in the Titan. She's almost 2 and has another 2 inches before she outgrows it.

i just cant find a seat that i really like....my dd is also small, below 5th percentil, the straps on the efta fit her better, except for the fact of red lines on her neck and her legs from the straps. she's small but has chunky legs. i've thougth about returning it and trying to get a britax, but really i dont have the money. so i was wondering if anyone would suggest the efta, truefit, or boulvard.? I dont know. i drive a honda accord, any fit in one better? is either one a better seat? just curoius?
