:confused: HELP!
I have been looking at what seat to replace Ian's MA. He has been in the highest harness slots for over a year. He is 42in tall now and VERY long in the torso. His head is even with the top of the seat.
I am trying to decide between the Regent, Jane Indy plus, PW and Recaro.
I would love to have him in a 5pt harness for as long as possible but the Regent only gives me 4 in more in height. Would he outgrow it that quickly after the MA? I'd hate to spend all that money on it if that's the case.
I do have LATCH in my vehicle so I have been leaning more toward to Jane than any other seat. But I am reluctant to buy one without being able to try it.
And the Parkway has the highest height limits so that's a possiblity also.
UGH!
I can't decide!

I would get the Regent. I think it's about five inches more of torso height, which is usually at least 10 inches of overall height, if not more overall height. It'll take him several years to grow 10 inches. I wouldn't worry about him outgrowing it in the very near future. And if it is only a couple of years old you may be able to pass it on to someone you know who knows you.
