I am 100% sure I'll be selling Jacob's Nautilus since he really is uncomfortable in it.

So...do I replace it with a Strada or a Monterey?

He is 7 years old.
52 pounds
53 inches

Have you tried him both? I know the baby store by nfm had both at one time.

I really like the monterey, but had issues with the wings always staying open. I haven't played with the strada yet. The review on blog makes me want to try one though.

What about the probooster? You can get one at a discount.

Yeah, look at the probooster too. Not loving the Strada myself. I like the Monterey, don't own one, but have played with one a lot.

Whichever one fits best.

It's really hard to recommend one booster over another sight-unseen since it varies so much by kid and vehicle.

April: Yes I was at KidsStuff last weekend and he fits great and still has a lot of room in both the Monterey and Strada.

ProBooster: does anyone know if there are stores that stock them? If I could try him in that as well then I am not against going that route. I am just afraid of sight unseen stuff since I was swooning over the FR85 online but in person he just fits weird and he said he's not comfortable.

Thanks!!

Do you have latch? If so I'd get the Monterey. I'm not a fan of the pro booster because it is tippy. It is shallower than the Monterey but taller. I haven't seen the strada so I don't know how it compares.

 

[NebraskaMom]

I do have LATCH. I'd forgotten about that aspect of the Monterey.

In that case the monterey is the way to go so you don't have to buckle it when not in use.
