Which would you prefer/do?

My son outgrew his MA around his 6th birthday so we bought him a Frontier. I like it ok. It is going to be a while until booster time as he is only 40 maybe 41lbs on a heavy day and for me I would like him at least 45 if not closer to 50lbs before using a booster on a full time basis. He doesn't complain about the 5-pt harness so why mess with a good thing.

If you didn't care about needing the seat to turn into a booster (I will probably get a dedicated HBB when the time comes anyway) which seat would you like best;
Frontier
Radian XT
Nautilus
Something else?

I am a bit annoyed with Britax at the moment and feel like boycotting them so I am contemplating getting new seats just because. Of course if the Frontier is the best choice I will stick with it. I know best fit for car and child etc but besides that personal opinions please!

My choices would be Nautilus, Frontier, or Regent.

I like the Nautilus for the nice smooth adjustor. I hate the covers on both the Nautilus and the Frontier. Now that the Frontier has new straps, I am much happier with it. The Nautilus has a short crotch strap.

Ok, just going in circles. I would stay with what you have.

There's also the SafeGuard Child Seat. But it's probably out of your price range. SWEET seat though, if you can get a deal on it.

I guess I should mention I am in Canada in case that makes a difference.

Thanks for the opinions. I have learned a lot of the techincal stuff from all of you wonderful techs on the board so I am glad to just have some other "moms" opinions!
