Chicco Nextfit & albeebaby.com

DH and I want to purchase a convertible car seat soon (even though she can use her infant seat for awhile longer) to avoid spending $500+ on new seats for both of our cars at the same time.  I LOVE our Chicco Keyfit infant seat, and while I was originally debating between a Britax and a Diono Radian, I was super excited when I discovered that Chicco's new convertible seat is being released in a month.

Two things...

1) Is anyone else considering this seat?  The only bit of hesitation I have with ordering it is that it's brand new, so obviously hasn't been used other than in crash tests in the factory.  I would hate for it to be recalled later... However, I think the success of the Keyfit speaks volumes for Chicco.

2) Has anyone ever ordered from albeebaby.com??  Good/bad experiences??  They have a 15% off code right now, so the seat would be $237.99 (no tax, free shipping) instead of $279.99 (+tax) like it's going to be if I pre-order it from somewhere else.  I just came across the website and had never heard of it before.

Thanks ladies!

    I've never ordered from allbeebaby but many from my local board have successfully. I think I'd use a Chicco even if it's a brand new model for the reasons you explained.

    Ooh I like it. I think I might lean towards that one as well. Have you been able to find the height limit? DS was always tall and out grew his britax one earlier that we hoped he would. Dd is also around 90th for height and want to make sure what I buy wi

    This is the one that we are looking to buy. I have a keyfit right now and trust the Chicco brand.

    Babies R Us has some in stock, at least in my area, and there are 20 percent coupons you can use, FYI.

    Here is my problem with the seat. They do not give the height limits for rear facing. 50 inches is for forward facing. It doesn't look like a good seat for ERF. It also looks like a beast, which is a no go for us. We need the slimmer more low profile seat

    Actually, I've heard that it's supposed to be good for erf.

    Though if a lower profile is needed, the Radian is a good pick, I hear. From what I've read, it's an inch or two shorter than the Nextfit, but has more legroom.
