Mean_Queen bought this adjustable Eddie Bauer car seat because her daughter outgrew her other one - but she doesn't like it. Watch the video to find out why it's not right for her.
@jcrouch702 What's uncomfortable looking to you is not necessarily uncomfortable for the child. Rear facing is safer for everyone, including adults, with the obvious exception of the driver. For children under the age of 4, it's especially important because their spines are not completely ossified and their heads are a much larger part of their body weight than someone of adult proportions. Legs being bent against the back seat is not a safety concern, and most kids that RF cross them.
I have been a certified car seat inspector for over 7 years, and yes ridding rear facing for the maximum weight limit on the seat is BEST! My oldest child is 4 yrs, 40 1/4", 36lbs. He still rides very happy and very comfortable rear facing in a RadianXT. The rear facing weight limit on that is 40lbs. Graco and Costco are also making seats that hold up to 40lbs rear facing to support ERF (extended rear facing). BTW I too live in Las Vegas.
@Haynesfamily2004 that is one short 4 year old! you sure hes only 40 1/4'' at 4 yrs old? I've got an 11 month old that's already way past that!

I actually have none of these problems with this seat, but I also don't move it from car to car.

Then buy 2 if it's hard for you to move it out of one car to another. Problem solved.
