I'm looking at buying a convertable seat soon and am thinking about getting either the Recarro ProRide or the Gracco Size 4 Me. Anyone have any opinions or experience with either? Anyone prefer something else in that price range (under $300, pref under $250)?
TIA
Re: Recarro ProRide vs. Gracco Size 4 Me vs. Other
We love our Recarro ProRides (DH & I both have them in our cars). DS will be 2 in 3 days and we still have no problem with him about getting in the car rear-facing. I love the wings around the head - if I could fit in it I would sit in it for long car trips. It looks comfortable.
According to the measurements on Clek's website, DD1 would have been able to rear face to 5 years and then go straight to a HBB. She is 99th percentile for height and 75th for weight. At 5 years she was almost 46" and 44 lbs.
With the Graco Size4Me, she would have made it to 4 years rfing only because there is a 40 lb rfing weight limit. She would have been able to ff harnessed to booster age.
They both sound like great seats. I'm planning to buy the Graco to keep DD2 rfing longer, probably to 4 years. The Foonf would be awesome, but we can't justify the cost.
