Britax Roundabout 55 or Evenflo Titan Sport Convertible Car Seat??
Hi ladies!
My twins are almost 10 months old and they can barely fit in their infant carriers anymore (I've been telling my husband this for months!!!). We have 4 of the Graco - Nautilus 3-in-1 Multi-Use Car Seats for when they are older but need something for now that it rear facing. Which is better? Britax Roundabout 55 or Evenflo Titan Sport Convertible Car Seat??
Thanks!

Have you played with either seat? The titan is a seat that I usually recommend as a lightweight travel seat due to their low price point, but they (like the Scenera) don't last all that long due to short shells and low harness weights.
You know that the time is ticking on those Nautilus seats, right? If you got them for your shower, they are already about a year old. Since it is recommended that children remain RF until they are 2, you are looking at 2 years being lopped off the top of the lifespan of those seats, which are only 6 years in harness mode.
If you can, I would return all the Nautis and purchase convertibles that will last you to booster age.
Look at the

Hey k
I agree with her and would return your Nautilus if you can. I have 2 graco my rides and 2 roundabouts. I am not crazy about the my rides...I have a hard time with the buckles every time I get them in and out. The Britax is much easier but the weight limit is lower.
