We have a 2.5 yr old 30lbs sitting in a Cosco convertable car seat. The straps do not tighten/loosen freely which makes it very difficult to put her in the seat and take her out. It seems that the seat is designed to pinch the straps if you install it properly.
I'm now looking for a new car seat and feel completely lost. How long should DD use five point straps? What car seat would you recommend for her age/weight? I'm particularly concerned with safety ratings. We drive a Honda Odyssey and a Jeep Grand Cherokee. One has captain's seats and the other a bench seat. Both have LATCH.
Can someone point me in the direction of what I should be looking for? A salesman sold us a booster yesterday and I want to return it because it has no five point harnesses or anything to hold her in except the seatbelt. I tried looking up Rhode Island laws and it only gives the 8yr/80lb rule but nothing about infants/toddlers/five points/RF vs. FF or anything. Help please!
