Moms of older kids, what carseat?

Mt2G1012 · December 2010

We got a substantial amount of money from both our works for LO and would like to buy the older carseat. She is in a chicco keyfit 30 now. What do you recommend? I do not want to buy any other carseat besides this one. Thanks ladies!

We have two Graco MyRide seats for the twins. They start at infant and go to 65lbs. You can RF to 45lbs in them, too.

We just transitioned DD from a Grace MyRide 65 to a Graco Nautilus. We liked the MyRide, and so did DD, but it was too big. DH and I are both tall, with the MyRide, we had to have the passenger seat pushed way forward to fit the carseat behind. Once DS arrived, both the passenger and driver seats were too far forward for either of us to be comfortable.

So far we really like the Nautilus and so does DD. I like that it's a combination seat--we shouldn't need to buy her another seat again. It's much smaller in the base than the MyRide, so we're not sitting with our knees in the dashboard.

It does not rear face, if you're looking for extended rear facing, I wouldn't recommend it, but it's great if you're looking for one car seat to last until your LO is out of carseats and boosters all together.

We have the Evenflo Triumph Advance, and we've had no problems with it. I wish it were a teeny bit narrower, but other than that, no complaints!

We have an Evenflo Triumph and a Britax Roundabout. I like both. When DD is ready to move out of the infant seat she will get(in my car) the Roundabout and DS will get a new Marathon 70. The Triumph is in DH's car and I am not sure if we will buy a second seat for his car and if so what kind.
