Having 2nd thoughts

I was very set on getting a Radian for the new babe since I love the ones I have. After reading too much on here I'm 2nd guessing myself. Is the True Fit or Britax better? Is it just a matter of preference or space??

Space isn't really an issue as the baby will be in a Captain seat behind me (so the older kids can get out of the sidewalk side door) The idea of having all Sunshine Kids is appealing but really not important I suppose!

Babe will be in a bucket through the winter for ease because of the awful weather we get here. I plan on switching when the weather clears up so babe will be about 4-5 months old.

Which seat would you get and why?

BTW If this is a girl I would LOVE to get a girly seat which I know some don't have that option but again...not that important :) I'm sure it's another boy anyways LOL

They are all nice seats.

I didn't like the TF because with the head rest added on I didn't have enough room for it in my vehicle.

Personally I love my Britax MA and would buy one again in a heartbeat. The only problem with buying it for a small baby is that the harness straps have to be at or below the shoulders which can be an issue for a small baby. My little one reached the bottom slots very young but now is all legs and at 16mths is still on the bottom harness slots. I also have a RN and like that as well and eventually want to get a new cover for it when we use it more full-time once it is FF.

So, at the time of buying a seat I would check out how the child fits in the seat before buying and then buy based on that. But I would be tempted to buy a RN just so that I could have matching seats. I currently don't have the same seats but I do try to match my covers. I currently have a Monterey in red with a Marathon ashley floral in on black seats in a white car.

Good luck!

Have you seen the new Flora RadianXTSL? I'm hoping we get them here in Canada before my girls hit 30 lbs.
