I really should get our convertible carseat inspected. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-your-los-car-seat-inspected#post-739867 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 13:10:27 +0000 birdofafeather 739867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no, but i think for the convertible car seat, we might! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-your-los-car-seat-inspected#post-739437 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 11:03:15 +0000 Protectlove 739437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am a Car Seat Technician so I did our installs but I have seen too many incorrect installs to not encourage any/everyone to get a fitting and education. I recommend going to an individual inspection/fitting where they are providing hands on education- it is so much more personalized to your variables- seat, car, and type of seatbelts/LATCH system. </p> <p>Best of luck and if you need help finding a technician in your area let me know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-your-los-car-seat-inspected#post-738581 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 02:36:58 +0000 sylvie_b 738581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours was inspected at our neighborhood children's store (they're certified) and they walked DH thru the installation. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-your-los-car-seat-inspected#post-738512 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 23:28:49 +0000 googly-eyes 738512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not our current one (graco snugride 35) but we have an appt Thursday to get the next one installed (britax advocate.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-your-los-car-seat-inspected#post-738505 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 23:22:26 +0000 lemondrop 738505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, good thing too because both times they weren't installed tight enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-your-los-car-seat-inspected#post-738479 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 22:35:18 +0000 Boheme 738479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are going to have it installed by DH's coworker at the police department.

DH had not installed it correctly at all. The main thing was that it was not nearly tight enough. I have since done a lot more research on installation and feel a lot better about my skills. I will probably go get an inspection for my new configuration soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-your-los-car-seat-inspected#post-738331 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:58:19 +0000 Smurfette 738331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep!

The sheriff said the base straps weren't pulled tight enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-your-los-car-seat-inspected#post-738263 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:22:51 +0000 Bao 738263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have not yet, but I have been meaning to go to the police/fire department and have it checked out, we just have to make an appointment or else go to one of the inspection sites when they have an event. </p> <p>Did you have your LO's car seat inspected? Was it installed correctly to begin with? </p>
