Zeus?

[DuckDuckMomma]

This looks like an interesting idea...anyone used or or have one? Wondering if it would be worth it for 8 month old (out of bucket seat, was planning on using Britax Boulevard).

If your child has outgrown the infant seat, he/she has probably outgrown this seat in the RF mode (or will very soon). This seat only RF to 22 lb. It also has a fairly short shell and low top slots, so even FF it's highly unlikely to make it to 40 lb.

If you haven't already read about it, please read up on the importance of RF past 1 year and 20 lb. Here are some links to get you started:

The idea behind the Zeus is innovative, but the way it plays out just isn't worth it. For the same price, you can buy a seat that will last much longer RF, much longer FF, and provide TSIP. Or, for the price you could buy two seats that will still last longer RF and FF.

Definitely a lead balloon on Combi's part (unless you have money to burn and a very, very small child...)
