I've had our Nextfit for 3 weeks now and I am just not loving it. I'm hoping you lovely ladies will have some suggestions. Otherwise this will be going back to the store.
Strapping my 2 year old is difficult and tedious. Is there some trick to getting the harness tight? I feel like I'm tightening the straps, adjusting the pads and moving the chest clip 2 or 3 times each time I buckle her in. And I still never feel like they are quite tight enough because while the straps and pads are pulled down hard on her shoulders, there will still be slack around her tummy. Or after I finally get it the way I want when I realize her butt wasn't scooted all the way back in the seat and have to start over.
Is anyone else having these kind of issues? I feel like I'm missing something and I can't find any videos of someone strapping in an actual child into the Nextfit.
Also, the chest clip is super easy for my daughter unbuckle, so of course she does. I would just turn them around so the button is facing in but that would require re-threading the harness, so that's a no.
And I tried installing the Nextfit into a car that seats don't recline and I could NOT get the latch tight enough no matter what I did. In my car, I have to recline the seat, install and tighten, then pull the seat back up to get it tight enough. Is anyone able to get theirs installed in non reclining seats?
Thanks in advance!
