Hello!

I am due with #3 in less than 5 weeks and am concerned about fitting three seats in my wagon (volvo xc70). I have a komfort kroozer (for 5 yr old), a pp infant carrier, and a roundabout(for 3 yr old). I was thinking of getting the volvo booster for my 5 year old and putting her other, the komfort kroozer in my husband's truck. However, I can't seem to find any ratings for it.

Does anyone have one, know anything about it?

Thanks,

Rebecca

I've seen one through a car window once... at the National LifeSavers Conference, no less. I presume it meets all current safety standards. Is there any way you can try before you buy? Aren't they quite expensive? It'd be bad to buy one, only to find out if it's too wide for your situation.....

Hi! My local volvo dealer ship was super busy and couldn't give me an exact price but I am going back this Thursday. Also, they had them for 20% off until supplies run out. I have to find out why-are they being discontinued(why) or updated?

Thanks for the info.

I tried to google them, and couldn't easily find one...I guess they have marketing issues, lol.
Anyway, tell us how it goes. As I'm thinking back on the ones I've seen, they may be nicely low profile (narrow back, small "armrests" that are easy to work around) and good in a three-across situation.

Fingers crossed for you,
