We opted for an Evenflo symphony seat named Emerson. I talked to a mum in store about the Evenflo seat that we purchased and she said she loved hers. Here is to hoping that they install super easy. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926403 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 17:36:03 +0000 looch 1926403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Let's see, I have Graco and Britax and I can't say enough good things about both brands. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926402 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 17:34:33 +0000 woodentulip 1926402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinpye: Great seats! We have (sadly) been in 3 accidents in the 5 years since we became parents, and the safety that I have felt with the Britax made every penny spent on seats (which at this point is quite a lot after all the replacement and only % covered by insurance!) seem quadruple-y worth it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926388 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 17:12:01 +0000 erinpye 1926388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@woodentulip: we have a frontier for DD1, too, and a roundabout for DD2. Love Britax! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926231 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 13:45:02 +0000 Little Misters Mom 1926231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought an Evenflo Symphony LX for $179 at BRU. I usually research these things to death, but impulse bought this and we're very happy with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926218 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 13:27:44 +0000 singingbee 1926218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsRcCar: it's really been great. Lo loves it and rides really well in it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926195 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 12:45:52 +0000 woodentulip 1926195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love love love Britax. Any of them. We have had all sorts, but both our girls were in Boulevards last winter when my husband was in a bad accident (both cars written off, airbags and such deployed) and the girls didn't even complain of a sore back. Britax is over $250 in Canada, but I will forever buy their products. They are substantial seats though-take a lot of space!<br /> Bc both our kids are now FF, we have them in Frontiers, which as also love. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926183 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 12:30:01 +0000 MrsRcCar 1926183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@singingbee: I am so glad to see such positive reviews for that car seat. I will be checking it out today at the store. Hopefully it is in stock. I live in a small town without a lot of retailers who sell baby stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926159 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 11:49:32 +0000 singingbee 1926159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have this one and we love it. </p> [attach=208/14/nef82m.337x600.Screenshot_2014-11-02-10-49-05.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926151 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 11:40:05 +0000 MrsRcCar 1926151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@catomd00: I was wondering about those. I only have a $250 budget since I need to replace 2 ASAP. Perhaps I could be persuaded if I like what I see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926047 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 09:31:05 +0000 catomd00 1926047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love our graco 4ever! It's a little over $250 but I got it for $199 with coupons and a mail in rebate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1926031 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 09:13:41 +0000 MrsRcCar 1926031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: thanks for your reply.

This is what we ended up with and I love it - I suck at installing car seats, but this thing is idiot-proof and takes me under 2 minutes! Tons of places run 20% off deals where you can get it for under $250.</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AHPZY68/?tag=googhydr-20&#038;hvadid=31590339037&#038;hvpos=1t1&#038;hvexid=&#038;hvnetw=g&#038;hvrand=5232056626575376293&#038;hvpone=&#038;hvptwo=&#038;hvqmt=b&#038;hvdev=c&#038;ref=pd_sl_5n9edzxby8_b" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AHPZY68/?tag=googhydr-20&#038;hvadid=31590339037&#038;hvpos=1t1&#038;hvexid=&#038;hvnetw=g&#038;hvrand=5232056626575376293&#038;hvpone=&#038;hvptwo=&#038;hvqmt=b&#038;hvdev=c&#038;ref=pd_sl_5n9edzxby8_b</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/show-me-your-favorite-convertible-car-seat#post-1925861 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 01:51:00 +0000 jetsa 1925861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have this and love it it's the same seat as loveistrange with a slightly higher rf limit for my tall kid.

We need to replace ours since our car was in an accident. While I liked ours I am not opposed to trying something new.<br /> Links would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance. :)<br /> Must have:<br /> -rear facing options for extended rf<br /> - weight limit around 100 pounds<br /> - be easy to install<br /> - fit easily into my torrent </p>
