SO I was just wonering if you have a 2nd car seat. I am about to get another one for Dh's' car and for air travel and I am torn, I while I love my Britax Boulevard I don't think I want to spend $300 on a seat that is not in use daily. Plus the airlines are really rough on checked luggage and I be flying at least 2 times this summer. I am thinking about the evenflo Titan and the Graco comfortsport or graco step2 (but it is only FF and I like to keep her RF fir a bit longer)
So what seat do you have ?
Do you love or hate it?
I did buy the Eddie Bauer 5 in one convet. before the Britax and took it back as it was way to slack and hard to install plus the crotch strap dug into her legs.
We bought the the EvenFlo Triumph..we love it! My hubby has one in his truck and I have one in my car..it makes it really convenient to have 2 carseats..we checked it in when we flew--used one of those travel carseat bags that we bought at Babies R Us and it worked out great--not one scatch on it!
We only have 1 car seat in our cars, because Megan is never in Jon's car. We have the Britax Marathon, and I love it. We do have a second Marathon in her Grammie's car, but I don't think this really answers your question, sorry!! Good luck though. I think one of the Evenflo seats is supposed to be pretty good and cheap!
I have the Evenflo Titan and we love it. It's easy to use and install. It's rated about the same as the Britax for safety only it's about $200 cheaper.
The evenflo titan can go rear facing, that's what we have and it's was rear facing for a long time. Now it's forward facing and we still love it! Rates just as high as any Britax.
We only have one car so luckily we don't have to buy a second seat, I don't see Vivien riding on Scooty with DH any time soon.
In my mom's car we are going to go ahead and use the seat we used for Sam, I can't remember which it is. I'm not sure what we will do in my MIL's car. I think for now we are going to give her the infant carrier because it says it can be used to 33 pounds and 30 inches and she is short. So once we go to the dr this month I can gauge how much longer she can use the infant seat. (for all I know she is 30 inches by now) Then my MIL can decide how much she wants to spend.
