Maxi-Cosi Pria 70 vs. Safety 1st Complete Air 65. Which would you recommend. My son is 6 months 20 lbs and 27 inches tall

Maxi cosi- Out of those 2. However, sounds like you have quite a tall little man, so I would probably recommend the Radian for you.

I have both...I have a 6 year old, a 3 year old and a 6 month old. I purchased the newer frontiers for my oldest children and an advocate for my youngest because he's heavy and I knew he would outgrow his infant carrier a lot sooner than expected. I noticed that my 3 year old was struggling to sleep in her frontier on a 12 hour car ride so we pulled over and gave her the advocate and placed my then 4 month old back into his infant carrier and base (luckily it was still in the back of my van) and she passed out within minutes. I find the smaller children still aren't ready to nap in the frontier without looking completely uncomfortable and leaning forward constantly...I've seen purchased another advocate for my son since his sister took his. Hope that helps.

Hi Jessica, He will be fine be sure to get him a helmet, gloves and knee pads as when they first learning how to ride that is the first thing to hit the ground when they crash. You will want to get the extended warranty as the back wheel assembly goes out. Both of my boys have gone out and they are 7 and 8 and weigh less than 70 lbs each.

I would suggest the 65 for you...I am 5'2"-I use the 55. People 6' tall would use the 75. There is more knowledgeable, research-based advice out there, not me. Please google.

If your boy around 40 lbs, I would suggest go with " bigger " stroller. I believe this stroller is too small for him.

Funny you should ask. Though I can't answer from personal experience, I recently bought the 60/40 because it is supposed to fit and we have another baby arriving soon. Ended up sending the stroller back because it was too awkward to open and close. May just use my Uppa Baby as our snap-in stroller until baby fits into a jogger. Sorry!

I know that it seems that most people do not keep their children rear facing until at least 40 pounds, but in actuality extended rear facing is much, much, much safer for your child. Other countries keep children rear facing until age four and have much lower rates of child mortality in car crashes. Should you be interested in extended rear facing, I would check out the Diano Radian and the Clek Foonf. If your child is not tall, the Britax Advocate is another great choice. If you are set on turning your son around, I will say that we have this seat and absolutely love it. We use it for our almost 6 year old daughter and she is very comfortable in it. The seat installs like a dream and is very solid. It's heavy though, so I wouldn't choose it if you need to move it a lot. Hope this helps!

I love my Boba but I never tried the Beco. I am 5'7", 140 and the Boba fits my frame well. What I like about the Boba is how easy it is to get on and off, I can put the baby in the carrier in about 10 secs. and be on my way.

Hello. I researched so many different brands, types, & models of car seats before I purchased mine that I don't remember the different specs. I went to the actual manufacturers websites and called the manufacturers with lots of questions also. I just know that the Diono Radian RXT Convertible Car Seat was a better fit for my little girl. Just went and compared the two quickly and right off the Diono is forward facing with the 5 point harness up to 80 lbs whereas the Safety 1st is only to 40 lbs. I also like the steel alloy frame & aluminum reinforced side walls of the Diono. If you haven't visited the manufacturers website for Diono its us.diono.com. Thanks & Congrats:) Hello.

The only difference in the weight of the Pria 70 would be if one of them had the Tiny Fit and if one had leather seat pad. The Pria with the Tiny Fit would weigh approximately 20 pounds. The Pria without the Tiny Fit would weigh 18.6. The Pria with the leather seat pad would weigh 19.5 pounds. I hope this helps.

Pioneer 70 can only be used from 25- 70lbs. Frontier 90 is updated version of 85. Like the 85 it can be used up to 120 lbs. the 90 features larger side impact wings, EPS impact foam and safe cell technology which allows the seat to compress in certain spots during an accident so that the impact of a crash is taken by the seat instead of the child. The 90 has a headrest that is easier to adjust. I have to unbuckle our 85 to adjust ours despite what they say. All are great seats, but know that they are quite bulky. So if your child is petite or you have limited space, this may not be the seat for you. If your child is small or you have limited space, I'd recommend the sunshine kids radian car seat. It's much narrower and has tote same safety features.

My son is five and weighs 45 pounds. He was about your son's size when he was 2, but then he thinned out. This thing is good up to about 100 pounds for front facing five point restraint. The five point restraint is simply the safest. We also have a booster for when he goes with family or friends, as this is not as convertible. But, overall, I love the britax 5-point restraint seat for longer trips especially as when he nods off his head has a place to rest. Your son is only 2, so I would recommend investing in this. Poorly fitted boosters can cause evisceration of organs and spinal cord injury to children. Why risk it? My son is five and weighs 45 pounds.

I don't believe it will be an issue, and Fuzion does sell higher bars, up to 24" if the stock 21.5" is too low for your son. I'm 5' 9" and the scooters felt ideal for me (we had to cut them down 2" for my sons).

My toddler (almost 2) fits great. She loves how high she sits. My sis in law has the Bob. I feel the Bob is bigger and bulkier than the graco. The Bob in my opinion has a little more storage. The graco comes up pretty high. I'm 5'3 and it comes up to my chest. I also love the fact that the gracos back wheels click right off for smaller storage. Don't know if the Bob does that. I will say that the Bob has more room for your child. My sis puts her infant in the seat and her toddler who is 3 has enough room to sit on the little foot rest area.

The maxi is sturdier and the height is adjustable, which it isn't on the mini. If your child is 3 1/2 or over I would choose the maxi. We have both and have loved them both but the Maxi is more durable and allows for a heavier weight child.

Hello hope all is well. I bought this for my then 15 month old boy. Now is 24 month old and still fit nicely. Only one thing with the front tray is to not use lot of clothing that can squish the legs. If is a big boy I suggest to not put the tray but to snack. Its not heavy and to fold it needs practice but in general it worth the price. Two position for child to sleep and canopy that doesnt bother him at all.
