I've had a Radian on order since mid-March. On May 19, I have an appointment at a car seat install to check the installation of the Radian in my car (They only do these once a month and I would really like the installation checked before I need the seat June 8)
The seat isn't in yet! I went in on Monday to find out the status of the seat. (they've been telling me "Any day now" for a month) and to make sure I can get my money back if the seat is not in by Saturday because I need a seat for this car check. They called me yesterday to say they'd be calling me back later with a tracking number. No call back. Nothing yet today either.
They offered me the floor model... but I'm not paying $200 for a car seat that has been on the floor for who knows how long.
So I'm trying to decide what to get that I can get that I can put my hands on (ie buy from a store. Lots of choices for stores).
Needs to be able to:
RF in the center (hopefully) of a 2001 Pontiac Grand Am (no LATCH)
Fit into an airplane seat
Be carried around an airport.
Son is 21 months old, 25 pounds, and on the 2nd slots of the Marathon.
Strongest contender: An Avenue from Sears. (the pretty brown with pink one if I can)
I can find Sceneras and Cocorros locally for sure -- but I'm pretty sure he's too close to outgrowing them.
Getting another Marathon is probably too expensive
If I can find a MyRide locally, would that be a good choice? (I know, not too much experience here. But best guesses how it would do on an airplane?)
I can get a 50-pound All-in-1 at Costco for cheap too.
Then, of course, the TrueFit and the EFTA. (At least, I think I can find a Truefit locally)
