Just realized that my daughter has outgrown her convertible seat (an Avenue). She isn't ready for a booster so I'm looking for a seat that will last her for awhile in harness mode. Here are her stats:
3.5yo, 40lbs, 40inches tall, and about 14 inches from the floor to her shoulder.
I am on a budget both with money and size. I am looking for the cheapest seat possible, but don't want to turn around and buy another seat in a few months because I went with one that won't last her for while. Additionally I drive a Mazda3 07. I have a 10yo (no booster) and one on the way (Graco snugride 35). So the smallest seat possible. There is a good chance I'll end up not being able to fit all three kids in the back seat when the time comes... but I'd like to try my hardest. My husband will also need a new seat for his truck where there is much more room.
So far it looks like the Safety 1st Hybrid, Graco Nautilus, and Evenflo Secure kid 300 are my best bets. (the Frontier is just way too far outside of my price range though I see it seems to be the most suggested car seat out there).
What do you guys think? Any comparisons on the three above or other suggestions?
Thank you!!!
