Cosco Scenera Review

When my twin girls outgrew their infant seats at 15 months I was BUMMED.  I was hoping to rear-face them for much longer before investing in a forward-facing Britax Frontier (which can be used be used until 80 pounds with the harness, then 100 pounds as a booster).  I bought the Cosco Scerena because I couldn't justify spending the money on a Britax convertable seat , then on a forward-facing seat/booster combo, and a carseat expert told me the frame was very similar to a Britax convertable, just with a less cushie seat.  They have tons of room to grow in the Cosco Scerena, and I should be able to keep them rear-facing for quite a while longer.

Just to add, my girls are in the 50th percentile in height and weight, so I am not sure if theis would work for someone with bigger kids, and I DEFINATELY would not want to put an infant in this seat, even then it says you can, it's just too big.

Also, to get a proper fit in my minivan it took a friend and I over an hour, and we had to use a rolled-up blanket under each seat to get it to fit properly.  DEFINATELY HAVE CHP OR AN EXPERT CHECK YOU HAVE IT IN CORRECTLY IF YOU HAVE A HONDA ODDESSY.
