I checked a couple boxes. First, yes my shrimpy one year old fit! ;)

My 2 year old (who will be 3 in August) Fit when I got the seat a few weeks ago--at least I think so; when I tested him then I did have the FFing feet down accidentally but I was able to get the same recline angle without the feet down, so I don't know. However, last week when I was ready to actually use the seat due to weight, he had 1.25" over his head. Then last night I did one last quick check and he seemed to have even less room over his head. So yeah...my between 2-3 year old fit til he started growing again.

I tried Gilbey in it a couple weeks ago, with infant padding and he was right at the limit. If I took out the padding, I might have gotten a bit more room, but he was uncooperative. He will be 3 in May. He has more room in his marathon than the MR.

I voted all fit (1-2, 3-4, 4-5, and other). However, my 4-5 y/o is kissing the limit (she'll be 5 on 7/22) for weight (she fluctuates between 38 and 40lbs). My 6.5 y/o actually has more room RF in it than FF (height-wise), she has about an inch over her head...but again, she's kissing the weight limit.

So, do they fit? The day I tried them, yes. Today? Who knows. LOL My little girls, however, fit nicely.

DS (stats in my siggy) fit VERY nicely RF in the store. And he thought it was the most comfortable seat. He even put his hands behind his head after I strapped him in. I didn't get to take it out to my car, but I'd guess he'd fit even better installed in the car.

The only thing about the MyRide, though, is I got the impression that because of the incredible recline of the seat, he'd outgrow it RF and FF at about the same time. Much like he did the comfortsport.

Both my 3y/o & 2y/o fit beautifully with room to spare! They both have the exact same stats: 13” torso 38” tall 29lbs

my 4.5 year old did not fit, her head was over the shell and she is over the weight limit.
tiny 1 yr old dude fit, of course.

DD2 fit but I don't feel she has enough room over her head. She might make it to 35 lbs with the height she had and I don't like it enough for only 35 lbs. I don't think she will make it 40 lbs and still have an 1" over her head.

My (almost) 18 month old and my 3½ year old DID fit RF. My 3½ year old had about 1½ - 2" and/or about 8 pounds before he would outgrow it RF.

G fit with lots of growing room. He's 2yrs 8mths and 29lbs.

N barely fit at 4.5 years old. He only had about 1/2'' of growing room and he's 35lbs.

I voted yes for 2-3yrs (Sofi) and yes for "my" 3-4yrs because I've put 2 different 3 year olds in it RF (3yrs 6mnths, 3yrs 8mnths).
