His looks super slick. The pink was too bright for me and I had the same thought about gender neutral. And I really like lime green </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1426160 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 10:31:03 +0000 MrsH 1426160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours are Gender nuetral. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1426141 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 10:15:21 +0000 SAHM0811 1426141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's probably fine! Our DD's are 3.5 years apart and DD2 needed a convertible after 12 months, when DD1 was still using hers. Convertibles last so long these days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1426123 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 09:57:12 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1426123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were planning to re-use Ellie's that was purple with flowers if we had a boy. He would have made it look awesome. But mice ate some of the foam, so we had to toss it. :( The cheapest option when we bought the new was was a neutral, but we would have gone with the cheapest regardless.<br /> @Greentea: @scg00387: &lt;3 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1426077 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 09:06:01 +0000 Greentea 1426077@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly, colors don't have gender. I totally feel like I sound annoying, but it is true! Especially for a car seat (even if you feel differently), it isn't like the child is wearing the seat to school. I think that deal and seat sound awesome and I would have gotten it... I wish I had! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1426016 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 07:48:43 +0000 Charm54 1426016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@heartonastring: yes I love that they are made in Canada... I also super appreciate that their prices are comparable to US - that never happens! Let me know how you like it after you've had some chance to use it :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425958 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 05:05:00 +0000 Dandelion 1425958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is red and black. It's gonna last LO for about 5 years, so any new babies will get their own. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425924 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 02:05:43 +0000 Sweet T 1425924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS1 has a giraffe print seat. I think it's gender neutral, but DS2 will be getting a new seat regardless. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425921 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 01:59:19 +0000 yin 1425921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One black and one brown. Our infant car seat is gray and teal. I try to buy gender neutral items when possible. I also love a great deal, which explains the brown convertible car seat I scored for $150. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425917 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 01:51:13 +0000 teamjse 1425917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes ours is black. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425916 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 01:48:41 +0000 shopaholic 1425916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is black. If I had been able to get a Foonf pink for such a great deal, I probably would have too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425898 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 00:38:56 +0000 birdofafeather 1425898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got a black one because it matches the interior of our car perfectly! She'll be in the foonf for a while though! We love ours! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425814 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 22:38:25 +0000 silver1 1425814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a black convertible carseat mostly because its easier to hide dirt!! If pink was cheapest I would have gone for it too. LO is a boy and we have some pink stuff :-) I don't pay too much attention to gender norms and LO doesn't care either! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425811 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 22:37:24 +0000 heartonastring 1425811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@char54: Haven't installed it yet (hopefully this weekend), but everyone I know who has one loves it. I also love that they're made in Canada! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425764 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 22:01:35 +0000 Charm54 1425764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: oh good , that makes me feel better! Our options are pretty limited up here in Canada. We probably won't use it for another couple of months but I had to buy it when it went on sale! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425762 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 21:59:33 +0000 Smurfette 1425762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@char54: Love it! The Nextfit is really hard to tighten. So I was glad I found the Foonf for $287 on Amazon so I could get it. R LOVES to look out the window. She falls asleep in it fine. She seems prectly comfortable in it. It does sit really high so you have to be carefully getting her in and out that you don't hit her head on the car.<br /> I would totally buy another for next LO! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425759 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 21:58:04 +0000 Adira 1425759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is Gender Neutral, but I agree that your DD will be in the Foonf for a while and you'll probably end up needing another one for another baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425751 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 21:51:28 +0000 Charm54 1425751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone :)</p> <p>@heartonastring: @Smurfette: how do you like the foonf?? I was excited to get it for that price but now I'm reading a few reviews about how it's not padded or comfortable and kind of worried! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425738 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 21:41:45 +0000 Smurfette 1425738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@char54: nope I have the pink Foonf and DH has the rose Nextfit! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425736 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 21:39:52 +0000 californiadreams 1425736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i got the blue one because it was the only one left when i was getting it on sale. i would have gotten the pink for my boy had it been the only option. and i don't mind putting a future girl in a blue seat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425733 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 21:37:36 +0000 heartonastring 1425733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got the black Foonf. I really wanted the Snowberry, but DH wouldn't go for it even though we're not planning to have any more children :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425674 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 20:38:53 +0000 Espion 1425674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is black. Can you get any more gender neutral than a boy in a pink carseat? (I say totally tongue-in-cheek. It's like they'll just cancel each other out! :) ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425671 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 20:36:57 +0000 swedishfish 1425671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One is black and gray and the other is cowmooflauge. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-convertible-car-seat-gender-neutral#post-1425635 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 20:16:34 +0000 HLK208 1425635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!

So I think it's ok and that's a great price for that seat! </p>
