Compass True Fit Rear Facing Toddler

When she gets nervous she licks her bottom lip. tehehe

Scarlett is 3 years old and still happily, safely, and comfortably rear-facing. She is about 27lbs and 35 inches.

And no, her legs being on the back of the seat are not a safety concern as there are no documented cases of legs being injured in a properly installed RF car seat.

Thanks for showing off your rear facing toddler! I can't believe she was under 30lbs at 3 years old. A dream child for erf, no? :-)

@verkazzian Yes! She is still very petite. At 4.5, she weighs in at 32.5lbs and is almost to 40 inches. I have allowed her 2 months of FF in her Radian, but next week she has to go back to RF for the winter. (We get terrible winters and I just cant justify FF her when she is so small still.)

the newer radians go to 45lb RF now

I know, its so awesome. We have an older Radian (only RF to 33lbs) so I am contemplating if we should turn her in 3lbs or get a new Radian and continue to RF for another year or more. She is going on 4....

Ooops. I didnt mean to delete your last comment. Sorry!

At any rate, I am not thrilled with the Complete Air. First and foremost, I do not trust Dorel. Second, most techs and others in the know say its a PITA to install. Third, I know Radians work for my car. I dont want to buy another seat and take a chance that it wont install.

What were you going to do today? I could not understand I just ordered a truefit hopefully it fit for me.

She said she is going to see Fairyn, her friend.

Aww she is adorable. Good job on keeping her rear facing. My daughter stayed RFing till 3yr3mths, 32lbs, and 38in.

I love her little voice. very cute!

I actually traded this TF for a Radian. This TF does NOT install easy in my car one bit. In fact, its a total PITA. The Radian is very compatible with my car and I can tether it RF, which makes me happy.

did you ever sell it?? lol I had a true fit but sold it cause I want the 40 lb rear facing limits that the radians have, but gosh the true fit is so much easier to install than a radian
