We have the keyfit 30 for Jack. Yes, it goes to 30 lbs - Jack is 22 lbs. I was going to call Chicco and ask them why my son doesn't fit well in this thing anymore - not at all with a winter coat on. I looked at the manual online and it also goes to 30 inches in height. At his 9 month appt 3 weeks ago he was 29 1/2 inches tall. I wasn't expecting this dilemma. FYI.
Santa is buying him a new carseat - early!!!
Re: PSA: Chicco Keyfit 30
you know, I appreciate knowing this. I was all set to buy that carseat for #2 (whenever that happens) and since Ava is one tall drink of water (she's 30 already, at 8 months) that's good to know!
I hear Target has a great deal on granite Britax's... lol!!!
We had that infant seat too and my DS is on the "smaller" side. He wasn't fitting in there around 8 months......but I wanted him out of the infant seat by then too. It looks like your son is around 9 months or so?? I just felt bad because he wanted to "sit up" more and the regular car seats are so much comfier!
I agree that it doesn't seem to pan out with the weight/heigh limits......but he will LOVE the new seat!
