We got the Combi Cocorro because of the weight for air travel, but if we weren't frequently flying with a car seat I would pick the Clek for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145747 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 14:12:52 +0000 teamjse 1145747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: We have the same carseat, I would still pick this carseat regardless of the price. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145730 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 14:07:48 +0000 Smurfette 1145730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: There are twins in R's class. They are 1 now, but aren't moving up yet since the aren't even standing yet, they were 2 months early. Anyway, he carries both car seats in every morning. It looks so heavy!</p> <p>@lawbee11: Thanks! We haven't looked into that seat yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145710 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 14:00:10 +0000 Mrs. Blue 1145710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Yikes, I haven't even started thinking about this. I'm definitely going to follow this thread. Like R, it will be a while before the boys outgrow their infant seats, but I'm so tired of lugging those things around! The boys are more than 30 lbs combined now, so adding in the weight of the carseats makes a very heavy load. I better end up with awesome arms out of this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145708 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 13:59:46 +0000 lawbee11 1145708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Not sure if the Pria is one you've considered, but there's one on NBD. We love ours :) The fabric is awesome for warm weather climates and it fits babies from 9lbs. </p> <p><a href="http://www.nobetterdeal.com/shop/en/nbd/-b009x4c5oi--1" rel="nofollow">http://www.nobetterdeal.com/shop/en/nbd/-b009x4c5oi--1</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145669 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 13:48:06 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1145669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm.

We probably won't switch till the 1st of the year. She is a peanut, so so hurry. but I am going to stop carrying the seat if I can avoid it.

They ended up being the same price due to sales. My LO is super tall, but it's all legs. She's still at the lowest setting for the straps to come out so she has a long time to go before she outgrows it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145553 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 13:06:26 +0000 MsLipGloss 1145553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: You can check it out this weekend in person if you like. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145514 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:54:59 +0000 pinkb 1145514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would buy the Maxi Cosi Pria again but get 2 instead of one Britax Bld. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145511 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:52:59 +0000 sillygoose 1145511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Initially we were getting the Foonf, but ended up with Britax Boulevard, which worked out well since I've had to remove the fabric to clean (vomit accidents) which you can't do with the Foonf. But I do like the look of the Foonf. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145504 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:49:39 +0000 lawbee11 1145504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maxi Cosi Pria </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145503 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:48:52 +0000 loveisstrange 1145503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It would be a Foonf, in the hearts and skulls print. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145494 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:46:06 +0000 Smurfette 1145494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: I like the heart print but the skulls bother me </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145489 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:44:44 +0000 regberadaisy 1145489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am still happy with the Britax Marathon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145488 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:44:16 +0000 runsyellowlites 1145488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: The only reason I'd go for the stripes is because it's more gender neutral... although now that I think about it we'll almost certainly have to get a second one for a future child considering P would be in it so long. lol</p> <p>I do like that the radian can be used as a booster though.... hmmmmm such a hard choice! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145486 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:43:29 +0000 looch 1145486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is difficult for me to answer, because I feel like I shouldn't put a price on my son's safety, but we need different kinds of seats for different applications because we do a fair amount of air travel.</p> <p>I am comfortable with the Britax brand, if I had to do it all over again, I would have skipped the infant bucket and gone with a convertible (Swedish) from the start. Then, instead of the Britax Blvd that we have, I would have gone with the Radian. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-didnt-look-at-price-what-convertible-car-seat-would-you-get#post-1145481 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:42:14 +0000 MsLipGloss 1145481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: I have the PF Heart Shades print.
