Hi-
I have a 5 year old with wide shoulders and small rump and he has outgrown his Britax Marathon. I am loooking for which 5 point harness to get for second and 3rd (grandma's) cars. Grandma needs one very easy to use and install and pull straps tight.
A very nice lady emailed me and told me about the cpssafety.org website:
" www.cpsafety.org, there may be a booster page, and there's a 'kids
harnessed past 40 pounds page' that will give you an idea of how
bigger kids look in various seats"
After reading about boosters there I decided my particular kid needs a 5 point harness because he often falls asleep in the car and boosters without 5 points require kids to be mature enough to sit in the car properly at all times. My just turned 5 year old has his good days and wild days as well as often sleeps in car so I am now looking at getting a Britax with Harness or something similar to a regent, even if it only lasts a year and a half until he is more mature and too tall for it. For the second car (DH) and Grandma car I may get boosters that can fit 3 across with the Marathon my 3 year old is in. I would like to find a good less expensive option for the 2nd and 3rd cars. does anyone know about the Generations Booster Seat ($99.99) vs Evenflo Chase ($69.99) for ease of use for grandma (like seatbelts easy to snap and stay in place, belts not tangling, not too hard to install or too heavy to get out.
Any suggestions, experience? Anyone hate one of those and return it or toss it?
