I've got them narrowed down to three (or more like 1, 2A and 2B):

Recaro ProSPORT $224

Britax Frointier 85 $230

Britax Frointier 85 SICT $275

From what I've read the Recaro is outgrown sooner, but with a little brothe only 21 months younger I am not too worried. No experience with Recaro seats though.

The Britax SICT is safer with better materials that are easier to remove and wash, but the wings are very bulky and it is more expensive.

If it helps, my oldest is now 4.3 yo and with the Boulevard being so high it's getting pretty tough to get him in and out. Also, my youngest, at 2.5 yo is starting to look big for the Roundabout.

Any input? Thanks.
