Convertible Car Seat for Me Too (Clicky)

I just cannot decide! Which would you pick of these three? I think the Recaro's colors are the cutest. I think the safety features on these three are pretty equal.

I drive a Kia Soul.

 

Stats:

Diono Radian:

Seat size: 10 x 17 x 28.5,  24lbs

Child size: <57in,  RF 5-45lbs,  FF 20-80lbs

 

Recaro ProRIDE

Seat size: 29.8 x 24.2 x 20.6,  20.5lbs

Child size: <50in,  RF 5-35lbs,  FF 20-70lbs

 

Britax Pavilion

Seat size: 21 x 18.5 x 26,  19.5lbs

Child size: <49in,  RF 5-40lbs,  FF 20-70lbs

  • Have you tried a radian in your car rearfacing yet? If it for sure fits I'd go with that. It's a tall seat.

  • If you get the angle adjuster (like $10) the Radian will fit better in smaller cars.  It will also last the longest of the ones that you are considering.

     

     

  • I voted for the Radian because it seems like it will be able to be used longer. But I agree, the proride's colors are cuter!

  • How long do you plan to RF?

    ETA: The reason I ask is because most people buy a radian with the intention of RFing "as long as possible" because it has a very tall shell. It can RF most children until they are 4 years old. If you're not planning on that long, I really don't think the radian is worth the money (IMO).
