Does anyone have a Consumer Reports subscription?
If so, would you be able to help me out with some info?
I'm looking for the latest safety information on Convertible carseats. I only have the info from 2005. Thanks!

Have you tried consumerresearch.com

or epinions.com or even amazon.com?
I love going there to do my research, good luck!

This is what is listed on CR but I can't find the date either.
I have the Britax Boulevard which is supposedly rated #1 for side impact... but who knows... they'll probably re-do these next and find safety hazards.

What do the numbers mean? 
I have the Triumph 5 from Caiden, but I was thinking of getting a new one for Connor if there is a newer model that got better safety scores.

The Triumph was rated 2 ... the carseats are in the order they appeared on Consumer REports...
