The First Years True Fit C630 Convertible Car Seat Recieves Highest Given Rating From the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

The C360 was the only seat to earn a four-star rating in both the rear and front facingpositions out of the 22 convertible car seats tested. The First Years True Fit C630 Convertible Car Seat was rated four stars by NHTSA for its ease of use pertaining to instructions, installation features, labels, and securing the child.

The True Fit Convertible Car Seat can be used when your child weighs from 5 to 65 lbs. The True Fit adapts better and easier to more cars than any other convertible car seat, and offers the comfort and safety features you have come to expect from Compass car seats, Compass booster seats and The First Years travel gear products. It offers deep side wings that have been side-impact tested, a full EPP foam liner that absorbs energy, and built-in lock offs to provide a secure installation without the use of confusing locking clips.

The pad is extremely comfortable to keep your child content on short errands or long trips. And for parents' ease of use, True-Fit has a no re-thread harness, which means less adjusting as your child grows. The True Fit Convertible Car Seat is truly the only car seat you'll need as your child grows.

Features:

Removable headrest--better installation for the back seat
Harnesses that go to 65lbs., as preferred by safety advocates
Larger inside dimensions to better fit your child as they grow. The lower center of gravity allows for a deeper, taller and wider seating area without making the seat bigger on the outside.
"Easy Off" pad makes it wasy to wash and keep clean
No-rethread harness: adjust the harness height without having to uninstall harness straps. What a boon for parents!
Deep side wings
Side-impact tested
EPS foam liner
Built in lock-offs
Multiple position buckle. Super-comfortable pad

Aircraft use: this restraint is certified for aircraft use

New Chicco Prints

We just received word yesterday that Chicco was adding another print to their specialty only offering for 2009.

At the ABC Show in September, we were told of the new print Romantic which offers a boyish, Black & Silver color scheme. This should be quite a popular print in the bay area! Go Raiders!
See pictures below, we're still working on getting some better quality pictures.

This past weekend, we were notified of the Bella Print. Bella is the perfect option for anyone expecting a little baby girl.

There are a few other color schemes that Chicco released, but we've yet to see any pictures with those.

Both the Romantic and Bella Prints will offer a full lineup of products including:

- Keyfit 30 Car Seat & Base
- Cortina Keyfit 30 Travel System
- Trevi Lightweight Stroller
- Polly High Chair
- Lullabye Play Yard

We are eager to have these items hit our store shelves, so keep an eye out. We're told they should be shipping towards the beginning of January.
