I was wondering what age and what slot your child is on the Britax Regent?

rosey2007 · May 29, 2009

My son has just turned three in April and is on the third slot already

.

HEVY · May 29, 2009

DD will be 6 next week and is on the third slot (second from top) completely upright without recline bar. And on the top slot using the recline bar.

ANGELINTC82 · May 29, 2009

My daughter is 4 1/2 and is on the second to last slot.

Whenever I put Charlie in one for fun, he's just right between the second and third slots. That's installed, too.

DD#1 was just moved out of the regent today. At 7 years 2 months old, her shoulders are now past the top slot (full upright position without recline bar; she outgrew the seat with the recline bar last year)

DD#2 is 4.5 years old and is on the 2nd slot from the top.

DS1 just got his Regent today! Thank you, fouros! When I tried him in the Regent at the store ("installed" on their test bench with no recline bar) he was on the second to the top. But today, installed with the recline bar, he's on the top slots

But he still has some growing room, and I really only need him in it for another 6-12 mos. (He just needs a *little* more maturity to stay seated well in his booster!--the past 3-4 months in the booster have been BAD!)

DS1 is 6--and will be 7 in July. He's actually a bit tall for his age.

Also, FWIW, he *easily* buckled and unbuckled himself IMMEDIATELY the first time he sat in the seat!

Dd is 4 and a half, 39" and 36 pounds (at her 4 yr. visit, she was 10th percentile for height, 30th for weight, I think) and dead even with the second slot up. Some days I think she might be a hair above, so I'm thinking we'll go to the third slot, but it feels weird because it's coming out near her ears!

myliljunebugs · May 29, 2009

DD fits like pp's dd. She is 40 inches 40lbs and is dead even with the second slot. I moved it to the next to top just to be on the safe side.

loufrando · May 29, 2009

My dd is 5 (will be 6 at the end of August) and she's using the 2nd to top slots. She's pretty much even with the slot though, so she'll be moving up soon. FTR though, she's been on that slot for like 2.5 years. It's taking a long while, even though she's grown like 10 inches in total height, lol. She's 97+ for height.

beebear23 · May 29, 2009

7 years old, stats are in my siggy and he's on the 2nd from the bottom.. I could probably move them up though. I may be brave and do that this weekend.

An Aurora · May 29, 2009

DD is almost 4, and she just moved to the top slots. When she gets in, she's right above the 2nd-from-top slots, but after she settles in she's right below.

my3girls · May 30, 2009

My dd is 6 years, 7 months and she is in the top slots, but really just over the 2nd from the top. If it helps you estimate it, she's one of the top 5 tallest kids in her Kindergarten class of 21.

Morganthe · May 30, 2009

DD is 5 years, 8 months - second slots from top & no recline bar. Possibly the next time I remove the seat, I'll move them up to the next level.

With the regent and those huge holes for t he slots, it's so vague about 'when' exactly to switch, imo. :shrug-shoulders:

Here's some info on that.

Bekah is 4 and is between the 2nd and 3rd slot, depending on car.

Tyler outgrew it, pre-adv at 10 years.

Thanks for that.

It's still 'nuts', imo.
Since the bottom of the slots are the loadbearing section which is the level to adjust the harness, then why didn't they fill them in and add another slot? :scratcheshead: There's so much wasted space. :thumbsdown:

HEVY · May 30, 2009

Yeah, you're right. That huge difference between top and second to top is ridiculous. Well probably with all the slots, but those are the only two I've used. I guess they wanted to make it easy to thread :shrug-shoulders:

tarynsmum · May 30, 2009

My DBK just turned 6 and is on the top slots, slated to outgrow it the next couple months, by ears. They're almost even with the top of the shell - maybe 3/4 inch at best.

solmama · May 30, 2009

My dd is 5yrs3mos, and is even with the 2nd slot from the top. I'll have to check-I may need to move it up. She's grown quite a bit lately.

twinsmom · May 30, 2009

My kids just turned 4, and are just about even with the second-to-top slots. They are both a little over 40" tall.

I was wondering what age and what slot your child is on the Britax Regent?
