We just bought this recaro for my 13 month old son. http://www.recaro-cs.com/us/product/...-boosters.html I'm kind of jealous. He's got a sweet recaro seat and I don't.

It seems that recaro makes some very nice child safety seats. We have very happy with the product so far.

Thumbs up It's a Proper Seat

I have / am using a Signo G2.



I am very happy with it. One thing to point out is the adjustable head restraint... the taller they get (which seems to be every other day) all you have to do is move the lateral supports up with them. It's good for up to 8 yoa or 50 inches and 70 lbs. This was the first seat I got after the mandated 'rearward facing' cradle seat... and it is the best seat I found after many many hours of exhaustive research.

One of the most notable thing's about Recaro baby seats... is that they actually sled test them. That may not seem to be a big deal now-a-days... but they have been sled testing them since they got into the kid seat business... and everyone else has followed them.

I ordered mine from safechildseats.com

I'm going to get this one for my 2 yr old. Read some reviews about the straps not being near long enough for the 90 lb weight limit. How old/big is your kid?
Any problems with the length of the straps?

Those reviewers must have been a lil slow...lol
The shoulder straps are only supposed to be used till like the third setting then it becomes like a booster seat
where u use the cars 3 point harness. My kid is pretty small she's like 31 pound and I still have the seat on the 2nd setting, ( it has 5 )

There seems to be a good bit of interest. I think we need a Lat-G groupbuy on Recaro baby seats

The new seats look much better than the old ones that I was looking at when my 5yo was born. They received POOR safety reviews back then too, but the new ones look much more refined.
