How ideal is this seat for a tall child with long legs?

Depends on how long you want to keep him facing backwards, but I'm not sure what seat you have matters for that. My boy is about 34" tall right now and his legs are a little scrunched up, but he's still good for long trips. If you are going for forward facing, you'll need a Suburban to get away from the kicking in the back of your front seat, but that has more to do with the car than the car seat. Basically, your car makes a lot more difference with the legs than the car seat. I can't imagine that this seat would give a long-legged child any trouble.

The seat is big enough that it would fit a tall child with long legs. My kids are still young but my sister-in-law has older kids that are tall and they still use their Britax without any complaints.

Don't know, cause my baby is 1 yr old now....But I can predicted that the botton part of seat was high and big, so it's not so convenient for tall kids....may be you can choose some other seats with simple design....

My granddaughter is 35" so I'm not sure. She is not facing forward with plenty of room. But we love this car seat!

My son is nearly 40 inches tall and fits it well. Your daughter should last a long time. It's. A great stroller!

It's a fairly high quality seat. How long are we talking? I get uncomfortable on real long rides in my leather seats... Your kid will be fine!

I think it would depend on how chunky your child's legs are. My daughters are a bit thicker than most, I think, so they are probably next to them, maybe a little higher. I don't think I've ever measured. She fits nicely on the seat.

I am 5'8" also. I think it is perfect. The seat can get a little uncomfortable on a long ride but that's nothing that can't be fixed with a better seat.

Our seat is plenty tall. My son is three and its not even at the highest setting. My neighbor's 5 and 7 year old also used it without a problem, we just had to adjust it up and down. Maybe you didn't get the same seat as we did?

There is no real height limit that I know. I have a tall child as well and he fits fine. He usually crosses his legs and the seat is tilted back some.

Most definitely. My son is 2 and measures roughly 37inches in height. His heel doesn't touch the ground yet plus he doesn't sit fully on the seat. There is definitely some room for growth

Depends on your leg length. My 6'1 1/2 inch son has long legs, and it is just right.

I'm not sure, but I bought it for 6 yr old grandson, who is average height & weight. The seat does adjust for shorter legs.

I put my son in this seat when he was 15 months old. at 26 lbs, he fit perfectly (was too tall to even have the shoulder straps be in the lowest hole.) at almost 4 he is still in the seat and is still comfortable.

I purchased the bike for my daughter who is 53" tall. She rides with the seat on the lowest possible position, and she is able to comfortably reach the pedals at this height. I'm afraid that a 48" tall child won't be able to reach the pedals quite yet.

Hi. I love this bike. My daughter is under 5 feet and has used the bike without issue. I am 5'7" and I just raise the seat and it is perfect for me.

I would guess a bit tight unfortunately. But I fell most of these seats now in rear position for tight, and the child's legs are always kind of scrunched in rear facing position

That should be fine. I'm 5'7" and ride it. My son is about 5' tall and doesn't have any issues.

Hi, pretty much the same as below. I'm 6'4, and I have to move my legs a little, it's not uncomfortable and my daughter likes the seat so much, we will take 2-3 mile rides with not problem. The positioning of the child on the bike is really the big benefit, you can carry on a conversation.

I am 5ft 10 inches tall and 170lbs and I can fit in the chair without any leg length issue. This is a very good and a comfortable chair. I would highly recommend it!
