So, I'm super excited about the Complete Air with it's shell height and all... but now I'm thinking that maybe this isn't such a good idea...
I'm currently using the Uptown in my car, because my DH can't deal with it. The continuous harness is a PITA and the harness adjust, besides being totally smushed in the seat back, is really un-smooth. I feel like it takes a year to get DS in and adjusted nicely every.single.time I use the seat. The chest clip is also really big, and I know that won't change.
The main reason I took the seat out of DH's truck (besides the fact that he couldn't NOT twist the straps) was that when he tightened the harness, it almost seemed like he would pull too hard, and it would affect the recline of the seat itself (recline it more, if that makes sense). I'm not sure why that was happening, except that DH was really used to the Radian with the RF boot, and pulling really hard on it. But that kind of freaks me out, especially thinking that the Complete Air will most likely need some sort of noodle configuration (which I really hate on principle).
I really want to like this seat. I was thisclose to putting down a deposit at BRU this morning... bah.
