i've hired a car capsule that is due back next month, so have to think about car seats. i have a subaru liberty and the back seat isn't the most roomiest, so i've been looking at the compact deluxe. i was also thinking of the meridian and it looks far more roomier for the child than the deluxe. does anyone with the deluxe have any problems with the size especially as the child gets bigger, i think up to 18kgs.
also what would you recommend, the retractable or manual.
