Thank you!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2499376 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 10:14:19 +0000 looch 2499376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SugarplumsMom: check the Britax Roemer german site, that's what I did, lol.</p> <p>They have harness options up to 12 years of age, like the AdvansaFix and Evolva. I wouldn't be comfortable with my son in a belted booster (Kidfix) and he's 5. He is way too squirmy and I can't count on him to sit still and in one place. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2499335 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 09:54:49 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2499335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: that we have! It's the first one she tried out, but she was so squirmy! This is the only picture I got of it. </p> [attach=1448/16/o48pfd.337x600.20160312_111000.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2499321 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 09:44:40 +0000 lamariniere 2499321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SugarplumsMom: We have a Britax Römer Kidfix that we bought from a German website. I'm not sure which model, but we started using it when DS was 4.5 and about 20 kg. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2499309 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 09:36:02 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2499309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: No :sad: The weight limit is the same as what we have now (up to 25 kg) and they both good for up to 6 years. The Multi-Tech is bigger, but barely. Now I wish I got it instead of the High-Way. I'm really surprised that there aren't more options here. I checked the Britax US site and it looks like they offer bigger car seats (non booster seats). The only backwards facing Britax is "one you would use for grandma and grandpa's car - it's not as comfortable" - and that's according to the sales lady. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2499080 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 06:38:46 +0000 regberadaisy 2499080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Graco Nautilus </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2499057 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 06:02:34 +0000 looch 2499057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SugarplumsMom: I would have purchased a MultiTech if we stayed abroad...I think it has higher weight and height limits, no?</p> <p>Do you want to continue to use a 5 point harness? We have seats that are not available abroad. My SIL uses Britax Roemer exculsively, though. She has kids 6-13 in them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2499020 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 02:13:51 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2499020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone have a Maxi-Cosi? How's it holding up? I'm also open to hear your recommendations :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2498525 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 17:22:29 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2498525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Aww, I just looked and they don't have that here :bummed: The closest thing to that is a Multi-Tech II, but that's barely bigger than her current seat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2498506 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 17:12:52 +0000 autumnlove 2498506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO 1 just moved into a Britax Frontier! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschooler-car-seat#post-2498505 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 17:11:19 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2498505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is outgrowing/outgrown her car seat. She'll be turning 4 this summer - I'm not prepared to be car seat hunting so soon! Seriously, where'd the time go?! We stopped by one of the local shops to try seats out, but they didn't have much of a selection and DD had other plans. A Maxi-Cosi Rodifix seemed the sturdiest, but I'm hoping to get some recommendations here.</p> <p>What car seat do you have for your preschooler? </p>
