Re: Carseat Help!
The Regent can be a pain in the butt to install and it is large, you know that. The Frontier JUST came out, but it's supposed to be nice. The harness slots aren't as high as the Regent though, but it doesn't turn into a nice booster that can be LATCHed into the car when in use. It has no rethread straps which is super handy and I love! The harness straps I think are right at 18". If you're not set on Britax, I think I would choose the Graco Nautilus over the Frontier right now. I would never buy a Regent, mainly b/c it doesn't fit well in my van. How long as you wanting to harness him? AJ has a Radian and will probably fit in it till 6.5yo or so, so he'd fit in the Regent till he was 9 or so I bet. Even as a carseat tech, I'm not interested in keeping him harnessed that long right now. If he chooses to stay harnessed when he outgrows this seat, we'll talk then.
