First Years True Fit v. Evenflo Triumph

[abgriffith]

I'm looking to move my 9 mth old (she's 28in & 18lbs) into a new seat soon and was thinking about these two. I've seen a lot of good reviews on both, but I'm still now sure which is the better buy. Does anyone have any input.
FYI--I have a 2002 2dr civic.

Thanks,

We have the True Fit right now in our Odyssey. I LOVE this seat and recommend it to everyone!

However, that said, I just got rid of my 2002 Civic LX sedan a few months ago and am not sure that the True Fit would be a good fit for RF'ing in that car. It is very, very tall. While you can use it without the head rest for install in smaller cars, once your LO is over 22lbs or reaches the marking at the top of the seat, the headrest must be installed.

I would probably recommend the ET Advance over the True Fit for your car. I had an original Evenflo Triumph (shorter shell and lower harness height) in my Civic and had no problems with it at all. I would definitely recommend it as well.

Good luck!

	Rear Facing Car Seats A rear-facing seat is one in which the infant faces the back of the car. Always install a rear-facing seat in the back seat of your car. This is the safest position for an infant. NEVER place a rear-facing seat in the front seat of a vehicle with passenger airbags.
