Thank you! I’m on a very very tight budget, but you have convinced me? to buy a Swedish rear facing car seat for my toddler and have it shipped to the US.
swtgi1982 says
@7777rmommie The seat my oldest two ride in rear facing is the Safety First complete Air car seat which rear faces to 40lbs. If you are looking for something for a heavier child then I might suggest the Radian XTSL which rear faces to 45lbs
MY older kids are light weights weighing? in at 34 and 28lbs

I think having seats sent over from other countries is illegal (sadly.) Can someone confirm this? for me?

I so sorry for the tragic event that has touched your lives. The video will save countless families, and children, from sharing a similar experience. It is sad that we, the victims of such tragedies, need to put the word out to others rather than our government officials pursuing more meaningful child safety measures..
I shared a similar tragic event when my 18 mo old grandson,? Joel, broke his neck while restrained in a front facing car seat.
You will make a difference

Thank you for sharing this eye opening video, its so hard to find good advice. I’ve only found 1 company that stock RF up to 4 years, but unfortunately my budget wouldn’t stretch that far so, I went to Halfords (UK) to buy a Recaro Young Sport (suitable 9 months to 12 years). The shop assistant told me that it was suitable from birth and that parents didn’t need to worry about using a rear facing car seat for a newborn. Obviously i complained, but seriously, who is training these? people!!!
sianshoes says
@LewisnRachel Hi, could you let me know where you ordered it from here in? the UK, many thanks xxxx
LewisnRachel says
@sianshoes Hi, I bought Lewis’s seat on Ebay, think it was called justkidsstore and Rachel’s is from the incarsafetycentre.co.uk in milton keynes. You can’t buy any seats in the UK that will harness up to 12 years or anywhere near!!! so frustrating. Hope this? helps. Dawn xxx

@LewisnRachel My children (2 and 4) both had radian xt carseats and because of a car accident now have radian xtsl! They have always stayed rear facing despite remarks and comments, their sitter planned a special day taking them to the city, we approved of? it weeks before hand unfortunately they could not safely rear face in her old car. They were forward facing going 55-60mph when her brakes failed. A few months later we still have lingering problems, but thank god they were ok. Great video!
MsTokenGirl says
Thank you to Lewis and his family for helping me. I have been trying to persuade my man that we got it wrong when we bought a forward facing for our two year old and our one year old. If this doesn’t convince him to forget the wasted money on the forward? facing ones and buy rearward facing whatever the financial cost, nothing will! The money’s in their accounts ready for them….
INCARSAFETYCENTRE.CO.UK
Wishing your family all my love and best wishes xx
LewisnRachel says
@bmitchell87 wow, thank god they were ok, thank you for your lovely comments? xx
LewisnRachel says
@MsTokenGirl Thanks for? your lovely words, I am so glad that we helped xxx
