Crazy In Love

After months of pouring over websites and literature on convertible car seats, I finally chose and purchased what I hope will be the perfect seat for us and for John.  One might say I was slightly obsessed with this decision, but then can one be too choosy when it comes to child passenger safety?  I chose the Radian XT SL from Sunshine Kids.  It has everything I wanted — except a cup holder but I can buy one later when John moves on to needing one of those — and so much more.  I can hardly wait for it to get here so we can try it out.

The NEW Sunshine Kids Radian XTSL car seats offer the first NCAP tested, high capacity LATCH system up to 80 pounds without the use of a seat belt!

The Sunshine Kids Radian XTSL car seats are convertible for rear-facing children 5 - 45 lbs and forward-facing children 20 - 80 lbs in a 5-point harness. With height-adjustable and aluminum-reinforced head support, steel alloy frame and protective EPS foam, the Radian XTSL car seat provides complete side impact protection. The Radian XTSL’s low profile offers amazingly easy child boarding. In addition, with its unique patented design, the Radian XTSL car seat fits three-across in a mid-size car while providing more shoulder room for the child occupant. Memory foam padding and infant support pillows provide additional comfort. All this, and the Radian XTSL car seat folds flat for convenient travel and storage.
