Re: Slightly OT: Car seat Quandry

December 21, 2007

Interesting, I guess with everything there are always people that

love a product and others that hate it. My sister-in-law's kids are

5 (now in a booster seat), 4, 3, and 18 months...I know the thing

she didn't like with it when they first made it was the " puzzle

piece lock " but that feature has been changed to an easier lock.

Maybe they have improved although looking at their seats do look

bulky but to me all the convertibles do. Anyways...happy car seat

shopping for those of you shopping at this time!
