The
Radian
is also a pretty heavy seat b/c the frame is made of steel. So, I don't know if you really want to move it from vehicle to vehicle.
What kind of vehicle do you drive?

If "the Sunshine Kid's Radian 80 convertible car seat is (probably) the only car seat you will ever need," the "probably" part of this statement comes into play when you directly compare the Radian 80 with the Britax Regent.
While the Radian 80 has a very high weight capacity, the seat width is only 10" vs. the Regent's 14" seat.
The Britax Regent may be a bit wider, but it is very bulky, is only forward facing, and does not fold like the Radian 80. Because the Radian 80 is so narrow, you can potentially put three of them side by side in the back seat. Three Regents side by side? Impossible.
