Hellobee Boards

I have the Britax Marathon & I'm just okay about it. She's comfortable and secure and I like that it's safe, but I dislike the straps and the strap adjuster on it, I don't feel like it is easy to maneuver.

We have the Diono Radian RXT for both kids. Love it! It has a slim and low profile, steel frame, and the fact that I won't have to buy another car seat again is a huge bonus! Not ideal for travel weight-wise but do-able if we really wanted to take it with us since it folds flat.

I love our Chicco Keyfit and Britax Boulevards!

I have a Clek Foonf that I like so far . . . but that is easy for me to say as (1) I don't have to remove it, and (2) I didn't install it (DH did)!

We just went to a Britax Frontier and I really like it. Considering it replaced a Cosco Scenera, I am biased!

We also have a Britax Boulevard and I like it as well.

We had a graco infant seat and will go with the chicco for future LOs, i hate that DS grew out of it so quickly (length wise)... even tho we tried to maximise how long we used it (7.5 months)...

we have a britax advocate and pavilion for his conv seats. LOVE them both

I have 2 britax advocates and I like them!

@loveisstrange: Which one have you found to have the highest RF limit? P has just about met the limit on our (cheap) seat. It has a 36" RF limit, but she is not complaining and is just fine folding up her LONG legs. But, I don't want it to be unsafe

@bpcmarj: we got the Diono Radian RXT because of it's rear facing height limit of appoximately 44". That was the highest I could find.

We have the Britax Marathon and a Safety 1st one for DD and she/we love(s) them both. Baby#2 will be in the Graco Snugride 35.

@loveisstrange: I didn't realize there were so many other seats with a 36/37" limit. Our tiny Combi has a 36" inch limit. I knew it was low, but it's also a really compact seat. From what I've gathered the Britax seats usually max out around 37" rf too... it doesn't have a set max height limit, but from the general age it's outgrown that's the ~ height most techs see. Stinks when $$ seats have such low limits. If we weren't using our Combi for our next lo I'm sure DH would've cried at the price tag. lol

@loveisstrange: @bpcmarj: I thought the Graco Size4Me/My Size/Headwise 70 had the highest RFing limit... That's what everyone on the FB group Car Seats for the Littles say anyway...

@loveisstrange: Why didn't you go with a Swedish convertible then? I am pretty sure you could have used in the UK, we used ours in Switzerland.

@runsyellowlites: Yep! I'm planning on getting it for Xander since he's tall and skinny!

@loveisstrange: @bpcmarj: The Radian has a 44" limit, but a head 1.5" from the top of a 25" shell limit. The Graco clones have a head 1" from the top of a 28" shell limit.

@Adira: Honestly? The Graco seats are ugly. lol. I dont want to buy one. I prefer the look of the Radian.

ETA: Eh, I hadnt seen this print. It's not so bad. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=19346756&locale=en_US&ab=BRU:bproduct_rr:Customers%20Also%20Liked:1

We have a Britax Advocate and a Marathon. I like them both but the Advocate (70G3) is HUGE and there is virtually no leg room for DS, which I don't like.

we have a maxi cosi pria 70 and i love our seat! we have used it from day 1. it is rearfacing until 40 lbs and 40 inches and then can be forward facing until 70 lbs or 52 inches. at 15mo my LO is 31 inches and 24lbs so we've got a ways to go before he maxes out!

We have a Clek Foonf which is near-perfect, except that I feel like the headrest causes D's head to be pushed forward a bit and that kind of looks uncomfortable. But he doesn't complain. Our other car has the Graco MyRide 65, which I like a lot, except that it's HUGE.
