What is the weight/length limit to use this rear facing? My 24 mth twins are still happy facing rear and I would like to keep them that way.

Up to 40lbs for weight. Harness must be at or just below child's shoulders. Child's head must be at least 1" below the red handle. This is unique because most other seats are 1" below the outer shell. It can easily get most kids to 4 rear facing, which is exactly why we got them for both kids!

even though your child is 20 lbs. its recommended that infants 6 months old should stay rear facing. I waited until my son was 1 yr old before placing him forward facing. this carseat is awesome and my son loves it, but my recommendation would be to wait until your child is at least a year old

My kids were 2 and 4 when they got them. I think there's a weight limit on them, but honestly *I* rode my 2 year old around on it with no problem :)

This seat is designed to be used forward facing only. Any infant younger than one year shoul be rear facing, so this seat will only suit a child over 12 months old.

Yes, we bought it specifically to allow our 21 month old to stay rear facing as long as possible because it's safer. She fits just fine in it. We actually can put our front seat further back than we could with her infant carseat.

It's fine for a child that age to have very little "leg room" rear facing. It's not their legs you need to be worried about as much as their neck! It is recommended that you leave a child rear facing until the age of 2 (we did with no noticeable complaints from our son) or until the child outgrows the hileight and weight requirements for the seat in a rear facing position. For her own health and safety, leave her rear facing as long as possible! She is more comfortable than you would think!

It can be used rear-facing for children who weigh 5-35 pounds or forward-facing for children who weigh 20-40 pounds.

I'm not sure if the seat is rear facing. From what I have read, they say that children should remain rear facing until they're at least 2 years old. Weight does not matter. This may be why it recommends 2 years of age. I definitely recommend the seat, but not until he is at least 2. I hope that helps.

Federal (CDC) guidelines recommend that babies remain in the rear-facing position until the age of two or until they reach the manufacturer's specified upper height/weight limit for a particular seat in the rear-facing position. BRITAX description of the Advocate G4 Convertible - The BRITAX ADVOCATE® convertible car seat accommodates children rear facing from 5 to 40 lbs (2,3 to18 kg) and forward facing from 20 to 65 lbs (91, up to 29,4 kg).

My daughter has a very wide rear end and weighs 217 and she is very comfortable in it. Sorry I don't have a measuring tape handy, but hopes this helps.

If your child is under a year old or under 20 lbs their carseat should be rear facing.

This seat has instructions to face your child forward at 1 year of age and/or 20 pounds weight whichever comes last. With that being said I think depending on the vehicle you may have a hard time fitting the child rear facing at that size plus in addition to that they will not have any leg room either. My 9 month old only has a couple inches between his feet and the back of the seat.

Yes, the main seat does allow for your child to travel forward or rear facing in the top position until 55 lbs. We do not recommend using the second seat without use of the primary position because of proper weight distribution needed to prevent tipping.

I believe it is age appropriate for 11 months old and although it is very sturdy I wouldn't want my girls climbing on it but it would hold their weight so I'm sure it will hold your twins! It is a lot shorter than I imagined but it works and my girls love it!!!

It would work. It's just really heavy. I just sold mine. I have twin 1yolds and a 3yo. I'd buy a more maneuverable stroller for your two younger ones and an add-on standing attachment for your oldest. (Google "Stand on stroller attachment "). Happy strolling!

It does not make any problem for my twins.This stroller is excellent we really like it so much. The only problem my wife is facing is that it is heavy for her and the seats are not very comfortable for babies. You need to put a blanket or something else below.

My baby is 20lbs but, you don't need to tilt the bottom while the seat is rear facing. Just don't use the angle adjuster until your baby has really good head control. My baby is 11mths and her head slumps forward a little when she sleep. That doesn't happen without the angle adjuster.
