My boy is very tall (39 inches) and heavy (41 pounds) for his age, so we just moved him from his comfy Britax Roundabout seat to a just-purchased Eddie Bauer Deluxe High Back Booster, for kids 20-100 pounds. I dislike our new Eddie Bauer for a number of reasons:
1. My little guy's head flops forward when he falls asleep, and no amount of adjusting the seat has helped support his head any better. It's not something we detected when he sat in the seat in the store.
2. The buckle is so annoying! I figured it out after 10 minutes or so, but I can't have my son's grandparents borrow our car because they fumble with this closure mechanism so badly.
I feel like my son is too young to use a seat belt right now with a booster--true? I would prefer to see him in a seat like the Roundabout, especially since he still naps often in the car.
Anyone have a seat suggestion for a big boy like this? We have a Honda CRV that's LATCH equipped. Thanks!!!
