I broke down and ordered it. It came yesterday! DOM of 9/11/08! Only $159!
I debated for what seemed like forever......convertible or infant seat.....Graco SR32 or Britax Companion.

I called direct to Albeebaby and asked about which colors had the most recent DOMs. The Onyx seats had August DOMs and Plum had September. Their customer service was great.

I wanted to hold out for the new Britax infant seat but I heard the price tag was going to be about $250. :eek: Dh doesn't mind spending the extra cabbage on HWH seats but he almost hit the roof when I said that much for an infant only seat. :whistle:
Plus the release date isn't set in stone and I'm due the first week of May.

So far I'm in love! :love: Love the added reflective trim too!

I am obviously out to lunch, it thought they quit making the Companion over a year ago...obviously I'm wrong.

Nice looking seat!

Thanks! I thought the plum was going to be darker. It didn't look as nice in the stock photo. You have to see it in person to love the purple! :love:
I had heard they stopped making them in early/mid 2008. To me, September 08 is pretty good! Only 5months old, not bad IMO. :twocents:
I tried Hipmonkey first but they stopped carrying them in anticipation for the new model.

I love the seat! Love the color and everything but... I hate paper clip style chest clips.

I'm not keen on it either. :eek: But, I'm not that worried that my baby will be able to slide it down. I have a MA and BLVD to move the baby into and buy DS a Regent. Hopefully this baby won't be as big as my first! ;) A 22lb limit would have last DS until he was 4 months. 0
