    I agree we just got DD1 the maxi rider (we borrowed SIL's old Turn-a-tot for her b4 we bought this) which will last her AGES and DD2 got our turn-a-tot.

    SIL is getting her turn-a-tot back and instead of turning DD2 around and then getting her a maxi-rider later i am hoping to see if we can keep her rear facing til 12mths and then just put her straight into a maxi-rider. they say from 6mths but the baby stores don't suggest it.

    TBH I would choose the maxirider with the AHR for a younger child. I chose to pay the extra for DD, because she looked much more secure in it and if god forbid we were in a car accident, then her head wouldn't be able to move as much side to side. Just thought I would share my reasons for picking the MR AHR over just the straight MR.

    Thanks for all your advice... we ended up getting the maxirider AHR with the fancy head support because they had it on sale at Babies Galore for $340. The one without the fancy head support's RRP is $369 so we thought we got quite a bargain.... looks super comfy and love the cup holders! Thanks again
