How long did your kiddos last in the Keyfit?

I really want the keyfit but I have tall kids who outgrow buckets very early by height. I DO NOT need extra weight at all.

I had the SS1 and while I liked it, I like the Keyfit so much better. I'm worried about them outgrowing it too early.

DD1 outgrew her portabout by height at 4 months. The SS1 she lasted in until after age 3

DD2 outgrew the SR by 6 months by height, the SS1 at 16 months

I try to keep the kids in buckets until age 1 for convenience. I just don't want another SS1, I realllllly want a keyfit.

So how long do most kids last? Much shorter than the SS1? Think it will get average kids to age 1?

I think it will get the average kid to 1. It fit my peanut until 20ish months but I switched her to a marathon at 12.5 months. The shell is taller than a snugride and compass infant seats, if I remember right, but a little shorter than the SS1.

I think it will fit most kids to 1. I gave Ryan's cousin his Keyfit at 6 months but aside from weight he would have made it to about 12 months in it and he is a tall guy. Always been in the 90th plus percentile for height and weight.
