OK, I came here a few months ago, got more confused and just gave up and decided to wait until fall.
Well, we need to make a decision. We currently have in grandma's car the Britax Decathlon which he will outgrow by this winter. In our car (a 2009 Toyota camry) we have the Safeguard Go.
My son is 4 years old, 46" tall and 55 lbs. Yes, I know, I could try to fit him in a 5 point longer, but SPACE issues is huge right now and that's my dilemma.
The car used for any long distance travel is the Camry and we are moving from Northern Virginia to the Baltimore area and twice now on driving back he has fallen asleep and since the Safeguard go has no head support, he flops all over. The other thing I don't like are the rigid arm rests. I know most have them, but it makes getting in and out difficult.
When we make those trips there are two adults also in the back seat (well, an adult and a young teen). Space is tight. We 'can' squeeze same three people in the back seat with the decathlon, but my teen son says that he feels blocked off and more squished because of how the frame of the decathlon is tall and wide.
Things I'm thinking about are: Sunshine Kids Monterrey, but is it really good for sleeping? Compass B530 - because I like the swivel arm rests, but sleeping? and perhaps the new Clek Oobr, but... will it really sell in August after delay after delay??? We don't 'need' it this minute, he has two seats that fit, but will ANY of these work for comfortable sleeping for him and decent comfort for two other riders in a back seat of a large sedan?
