We searched high and low to find a convertible car seat for my 6 month
old infant. Finally I purchased Eddie Bauer=AE Deluxe Convertible Car
Seat from
http://www.toddlerscorner.net/eddie-bauer%c2%ae-deluxe-convertible-toddler-=
car-seat/
My son is already over 20 pounds but can't face forward for another 6
months - so all those other car seats that only hold 40 pounds total
were going to be a misuse of cash for us. This seat holds 80 pounds
total, so this is one toddler item he won't be growing out of so
quickly! Parents - please keep in mind that your toddler needs to face
backwards until they are at least 20 pounds and over 1 year old!
The seat itself was a breeze to put collectively. It went from box to
back seat in about 20 minutes. It comes totally put jointly except
that you have to regulate the shoulder straps to the height of your
infant. The first time we put my wiggly little guy in the seat,
everything clipped together like a magic. No pinched fingers, no
digging for straps under his legs, no frustrated Mommy or Baby.
The seat fits well with room to spare in our mini-SUV. We could even
move the passenger seat back a little from where the seat had to be
for the baby car seat we just replaced. And speaking of - this car
seat is not for newborn children. If you are buying your baby's first
car seat - buy a baby seat. These convertible car seats are for
infants and toddlers not for little children - and once you start
shopping around for anything from toys to books to clothes you will
know there is a big differentiation between babies and infants.
Eddie Bauer=AE Deluxe Convertible Car Seat sits up straighter than a
baby seat. My little son was exhausted of laying down in his baby seat
by the time he hit the 20 pound limit, so the new sitting position in
this seat is much enhanced. Though, if your child can't hold their own
head up or tip up their own bottle or sippy cup, they won't be able to
give themselves a drink. Speaking of - the entire top cover comes off
easily and you can throw it in the dust bin! With or without mashed-in
bananas and cheerios and milk!
Also - when your little one does fall asleep in this car seat - have a
pillow or a rolled up blanket to catch their necks. Their heads will
tilt down if you don't. That's gravity's fault - not this car seats.
Basically, if you have a little one who likes to sit up and look out
the window or amuse themselves in the back seat - this car seat is
perfect.
The Eddie Bauer=AE Deluxe Convertible Car Seat is Comfortable,
affordable, safe, and easy to use. It's the same amount of excellence
you'd anticipate from any Eddie Bauer product and I highly recommend
it.
