I bought 2 MA's at the sales a few months back, but now I need a 3rd seat - SIL was going to hand down a Britax, but now she needs it. Here are the goods:
DD 3 1/2, 33lbs, 37"
DS 7 mos, 17 - 18 lbs, 27"
Mom has an Explorer without LATCH. She already has a RA. She picks up DD from school 2x/wk, about 5 miles away, no highway, and may do occasional errands with DS, but no major driving.
I am tapped out, and need to find something cheaper than a Britax for her car. New seat could either be FF only for DD, or RF then FF for DS.
I keep seeing the Evenflo Triumph Advance and FP Safe Voyage Deluxe mentioned. Are these relatively easy to install without the lock-offs? More importantly, are they easy to buckle the child into? What about the Graco Step 2 - I know it is better for FF; would that work ok FF only, with DD (DS could be RF in the RA)?
Suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
