I also love the harness does it make a difference that their is no chest clip in the middle?

My sister lives in Germany and had such a problem with her 5th kid slipping out of his harnesses while on the Autobahn. She ended up using an aftermarket chest clip like this:

She said it was a total PITA because it wasn't attached to the seat and could get misplaced.

Chest clips are prohibited in Europe bc emergency responders must be able to release the child in one motion.

If I were buying new today of actually probably get an axkidd or a max-fix. I'm actually debating if I want to keep my TWE once I put DD in a booster (which will be soon). I don't really have any gripes with the seat but I like some of the features of the other 2.

The brand new one from Britax with rigid latch and adjustable recline looks SOOOO awesome, but with the crazy stupid LATCH rules going on here lately I wouldn't even think of buying it

Can anyone tell me how wide this is on the bottom? Or if they think it would have a good chance of puzzling next to the recaro probooster in a 05 impala? It would go probooster, twe, radian

I keep forgetting to post this, and this thread has reminded me, but...

THE PRIUS ATE MY MT.

Here's how: I had the tethers installed around the passenger seat track. This is how I usually do it--I'm surrounded by cars with prohibitions on pushing on the seat back and I'm not comfortable messing with the seat. So in the Prius, the passenger seat supports have little pokey things, which I did not realize. They put HOLES IN MY TETHER. Holes. In. My. Tether.

New tethers have been purchased, and now I will always always always run my hand around the seat track upright before I install it and I will err on the side of not putting it in places like that.

OK, off to start a thread somewhere else so this will be searchable. But Swedish seat owners beware: Prius no likey tight RF tethers.

 

[newyorkDOC]

Posted this in the other thread too but there are tether anchors you can purchase and install onto the tracks.

Also 2010 Prius doesn't have this issue just FTR.

How long did it take for delivery of your seat?

 

[Phineasmama]

How long did it take for delivery of your seat?

Quite a while. It took forever for the tracking to update after it left Sweden, and then once it got to customs I had to wait another like 5 days for it to CLEAR customs, and then once it did it was here two days later. But it did certainly take longer than I thought it would for priority shipping.

i ordered mine over a monday holiday weekend (saturday morning, swedish time) and arrived within a week on friday or saturday. i was shocked by how quickly it arrived, and i used the cheapest shipping option. i must've gotten lucky at customs.

 

[remken]

Thanks, yeah the 3-5 days priority shipping on carseat.se makes it sound like delivery is quick. Glad I didn't do the cheaper shipping.

 

[cowgirlsmommy]

I did the cheap shipping and I got it in a week

 

[Phineasmama]

It probably just varies based on which customs center it goes through it something.

 

[remken]

Its inbound to customs in New York. So its getting closer to me.

 

[corrielainedd]

Where did you buy it? It looks awesome!!

Are you talking about the MaxFix? that thing is like the perfect RF'ing car seat, haha. I can't get over how easy the install appears. If only we had Euro ISOFIX regulations here...
