Which seat do you think has the most leg room rf? Yes I'm in Canada, but figured I'd get more answers here. My girls are 3.2yr(32#) and 22mos(27#). Both ride FF in Canadian MA(please no flames).Thanks for the help:)
Radian
Truefit
Complete Air
Did I miss any?

In the order you posted. Radian, TF, CA. Do you have the My Ride up there yet? That's got a ton of leg room rear facing too.

My Ride provides a lot more room RF than the TF for my son, but the Radian provides an insane amt. of leg room.

I don't know about the CA but I have a Radian and a TF and they both have a ton of leg room for my daughter. She rides in the TF the majority of the time and never complains about the leg space. With that seat she tends to cross her legs whereas when she rides in the Radian she tends to hang her legs over the side of the seat.

Thanks everybody! I didn't think of the MyRide65, simply because I swore off of Graco....had issues with the Nautilus(hate that seat) and CS was aweful! I've always been intrigued by the Radian, but love the comfiness of our MA's. The girls have been taking turns(fighting over it actually) riding rf in a Scenera, but I find that seat a royal pain to install rf(Yukon XL..soon to be Sienna) and it's not very cushy. We often do 3 hr drives to the city each way, so comfort is huge in our books.
Appreciate the help.

Both the Radian and the Truefit are great seats and each one has it's own pros but given a choice I would pick the TF. It often goes on sale for $150 at Zellers making it almost 1/2 the cost of a Radian. It's super comfy and I love having the rear and forward facing lock offs. I've also found that I have an easier time installing the TF but the Radian is great for when you need to do a 3-across

also depends on how long you plan to RF, since the Radian is now 40 and 45 (in the US though, i think you are in Canada???)

You did miss one. The EFTA. It offers TONS of leg room for older FF children. I also know the TF offers quite a bit of leg room as does the MR. I have not tried the CA or the Radian though, so I can not chime in on those. So in my experience it would go:
EFTA
MR
TF

I love our Radians for the leg room. My oldest son is almost 5 and has lots of room RF. I think it's great because the sides of the seat are so low profile.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I think I'll take a closer look at the Radian and Truefit when we are next in the city. Have to say that I really like the low profile of the Radian as I'm carpooling two other 3yr olds twice a week, easier for everyone to get in.

My 5 year old is ff but she prefers sitting in her radian than the regent. We have them both installed in the van and its up to her.

The MyRide isn't actually available in Canada yet. I think it's coming, but it's not here yet. Also, the Radian 65 and Premier (I think) will be 40 lbs rear facing sometime this fall... apparently November IIRC.
