the cover on our scenera is getting really thin at the top. It seems like it could rip open at any day. Of course it might just be fading that makes it look so thin. I'm fairly annoyed about this because it's just our travel and second seat. Get's used about 5 trips a MONTH yet the cover doesn't seem it will last the life of the seat.
Anyway, I called Dorel and they said that it would be 23.80 for a new cover. The seat has a DOM of 3/07 so it has many years left.
Would you a) sell this seat for $20 and buy a new one b) Get the cover.
I figure, we bought the seat for around $40 and got 2 years of use out of it so $20 a year, much less than renting one when traveling. My oldest child will outgrow the seat any day now. His torso height is 14 inches, the harness slot is 14.5 My youngest's torso height is 12 inches so she still has probably 1.5-2 years. I can get that much more use out of it for $23.80. Or I could sell it and buy something with a higher harness height (maybe a Chase booster for ds)
