 "Perfect Car seat that lasts YEARS!" 2010-10-20
By J. Myers (Texas)
I bought this carseat for my daughter, and later I bought one in the gray-ish color w/the squares for my son. What I loved about this seat is that it's very hefty. They weigh quite a bit actually. these aren't flimsy, or made poorly. they are really strong seats. another thing i loved was the slim design! they fit SO well in any vehicle. I have since purchased 2 more for our other car. these seats fit great in our Nissan Quest van and they fit great in my Dodge Challenger 2 door. I liked the color choices too, and let my 4 y/o daughter and my 3 y/o son pick out the colors they wanted from the website.

They are very easy to install. i liked the anchor strap being as long as it is...it makes it so easy to find an anchor whether the seat is forward facing or rear facing and in any type of vechile.

It comes with extra padding for the little bitty ones and is easily removed. the shoulder straps have several notches and fit any size child well. My daughter is very little for her age and i had a hard time finding anything in a booster that would hold her at her height/weight but this seat works so well. this seat will work from infancy to 5 or 6 yrs old!

I've been able to wash the covers once since installing the seats, it takes a bit of work to get the strapes back in place but it's not as bad as others ive had. I do wish this seat had cup holders like some, and the strap clip at the armpit level is VERY easy for kids to get undone, so you might have to change it out w/something a bit more child proof. my 3y/o son went through this phase were he thought it was 'funny' to unbuckle that thing while i was driving.

Over all i really like this seat and wish i had found it sooner it could have saved me SO much money over the years.

We really like this car seat. It is very slim and it fits perfect on our CRV allowing us to fit 3 accross. The only thing is that the lock is a bit hard to get open, I am not sure if this is only with ours or if they are all like that. I'm going to call the manufacture to find this out.

 "Sunshine Kids Radian XTSL vs Britax Diplomat" 2010-04-15
By BigBoy (LC, CA USA)
Reasons I purchased the Sunshine kids randian XTSL are:

compact width wise. i have no doubt you can fit 3 car seats or 2 car seats and have an adult sit in a small to mid size vehicle without a problem. Diplomat is wider so with 1 diplomat in my wife's Toyota Rav 4 (small "SUV") 2 small 5'4" woman were cramped in the back seat with diplomat. And there's no way a person can sit in the back with 2 Diplomat, where as with XTSL it seems possible.



Holds an infant up to 45 lbs rear facing and 80 lbs foward facing so i know I can use it for a long time. (non-SL version- rear facing 35lbs vs 45lbs on -SL so get the SL) Britax has 35lbs rear facing weight limit. It is recommended that you keep the kids in rear facing for longer than recommended 1 year and 20lbs weight limit. My son's already 23 lbs in 9 months so it's good to know that I have that extra weight limit.



XTSL has bigger side impact cushion than the 80SL however Britax has a big side impact cushion.



Don't like about XTSL:

the car i bought this for does not have the latch so trying to install it correctly took awhile since the manual like most manuals has the jist of it but does not go into great details, so it took me a while to fiddle with it. The place to insert lapbelt was big small and me being a 6' guy with big hand had trouble inserting through the lapbelt hold and grab it from other side. My main car seat is Britax Diplomat is easier to install with lapbelt since you can lift the seat cushion and see where the lapbelt is going through.



Car seat is compact width-wise but not too compact lengthwise so it compromised some leg room in the front passenger seat. And I'm glad I installed it behind the front passenger seat since i'm 6' and would've made it cramped if i placed behind the driver's seat (if you're shorter or have the seat facing forward once baby reaches the age you probably won't have problem) Once again Britax Diplomat seems to be bit more compact lengthwise but Diplomat does take up more room widthwise.



XTSL's harness has to be unhooked and rehooked as the kid grows. Britax Diplomat carseats have this knob on the side that turns to raise and lower the shoulder seatbelt without detatching the harness. The other day I put him in the seat ready to buckle then realized that he grew and the shoulder belt is big low so I turned the know few times with him in it and presto. Very convineint. In addition the side impact cushion rises and lowers together with the twist of the harness knob so it is where the child's head is supposed to be compared to the XTSL which is stationary so if you place a infant right out of the hospital, I'm not sure the baby's head will be protected by the side impact cushion where as once they get older it won't be a problem



XTSL seems to be twice heavy as the Diplomat which really isn't a problem for me since the seats won't be moving. Just an observation since they seem to be big on being able to carry it around with a strap. They do have airplane installation guide.



My son hasn't sat in the XTSL yet so that'll have to come later. My son hated his infant seat with the base, always trying to get out of the seat. He loves his Britax Diplomat. No fuss putting him in the seat and puttnig on the harness.



Britax Diplomat - $169.99 from amazon (some freak sale i happened upon)

Sunshine Kids Radiant XTSL - $239 from ebay (it's still new so i'm sure the price will drop later) Reason for buying it on ebay vs amazon. Love amazon but this vendor, Healthcheck Systems Inc., notified me over a week after a purchase of when the car seat was supposed to arrive to tell me that they did not receive the item and i won't get it for another month. Would've been nice if they told me before I purchased it that they are waiting on a shipment so i can decide based on that information. But it saved me $60 bucks and i got the XTSL model with bigger side impact cushion (Originally tried to purchase 80SL since it was cheaper.)



So beware of the vendor Healthcheck Systems Inc. Might sell you something that they don't have then you'll end up just wasting time. Good thing it was my spare carseat. If it was going to be my main carseat and they've wasted my time I'd be furious.



I'll see how much he likes the XTSL after this weekend when we have to take him to the hospital. I just realized that I haven't checked the shoulder harness height with my son. The twist knob would come handy in time like this. Quick observation: XTSL seems to have big wider butt room compared to the Diplomat so might be better once my son gets bigger.



Verdict for now: Using Britax Diplomat for now in the Main Car. Love it. My son loves it. Got a great deal on it.

Sunshine Kids Radiant XTSL - time will tell but for now seems like a great buy... got like $60 off MSRP. It'll probablyl become the main car seat once my son gets bigger and will be around longer with 80lbs max weight limit compared to Diplomat's 60lbs

 "Love this seat!" 2010-01-27
By
I have a 14 mo who is 31" tall and 22#. We have this seat (in Flora) and love it! I went back and forth forever before getting her the perfect convertible seat. I decided on this one. First of all it's the only that RF to 45# and that is what we plan on--RFing as long as possible for safety reasons. The seat is a cinch to install (using LATCH, I haven't used a seatbelt install) and although the biggest complaint I read on all the reviews I could find was how heavy it was. And it is heavy for sure. But I don't care and not sure if that should be a reason to give this seat any flak. It's sturdy. It's one of the best made and safest out there, IMO. So if it has to be heavy that's fine with me. I mean are people toting their car seats around?



The complaints I do have are these: The top tether has nowhere to go when the seat is RFing. It dangles behind the seat. I used a cable tie and tied it up but would love to see some sort of compartment on the back of the seat for it to tuck away into. Also the pad that goes on the seat (not the infant insert but the other with the wings) doesn't stay in place and has two straps that honestly I am baffled at what to do with those straps.



The good about this: Everything else. The bad is not even bad just somethings they could improve on the next one they design. My daughter fits easily in it, it's easy to get her in and strap her. It's a breeze to take out and install (again, using LATCH, I haven't used a seatbelt install) into another car. Takes about 2 minutes total. If you can't figure out the manual, which I admit could use some revisions, you can download install videos from the company on YouTube and from their Facebook page. I am looking at getting a second seat for my hubby's car as right now we only have the one and switch it out back and forth. Not hard just inconvenient. So I will be getting my second seat soon!

 "Love it!!" 2010-09-15
By Eli'sMommy3718
This is a great car seat! It fits well in the backseat of my small two-door car (chevy cobalt coupe).There's enough room to comfortably fit three in a row too! It's super easy to install because of the LATCH hooks. Don't know if I'd take it on a plane though (although it is airline approved) because it's heavy! The car seat itself comes with a pretty sturdy carrying strap but the case is very thin. I doubt it will hold up well. This product ships quickly! I ordered it on a Friday (after business hours) and it arrived on Tuesday. Free Shipping too!

 "essential for travel with the radian 65" 2010-02-25
By A. McGrath (Arizona, USA)
I have been on more than 40 flights with my now toddler, most of them without my husband. I bought 2 of these straps so I can put the radian 65 on my back as a backpack. This makes it possible for me to transport child, hand luggage and carseat. I think the purchase has paid for itself anyway, as without the straps I would have paid $3 for a trolley in every airport.



If you are travelling with this carseat, then do yourself a favour and invest another few dollars in 2 straps. Although getting one strap is helpful, you still have to balance a heavy carseat on one shoulder while bending down trying to control a toddler.



Oh, and I just leave them attached to the carseat when it is in the car, that way I don't lose them and I don't forget them for the next trip. They don't interfere with the latch or belt system, you just tuck them behind the carseat when you strap it in.

 "carry strap" 2010-01-31
By K. Pijanowski
We got this carry strap for a recent vacation, during which we flew three times with connections on each flight, so there was a lot of walking through the airport. I will say that I don't know how we would have done it without the strap. However, my husband found it uncomfortable, as it kept sliding off his shoulder. When I ordered the strap, I didn't realize that if I ordered two straps I could create a sort of back pack with the seat (the seat's manual shows you how to do this). I am definitely going to order a second strap to try that out. Otherwise, I think it would work best if you were willing to put the strap across your chest / over the opposite shoulder from the seat. The seat is very heavy so it will naturally pull off your shoulder if you just keep it on one side. However, having read reviews of the travel bags that are supposed to go with this product, I would stay away from that as an option. The only other idea I have for getting through an airport with this heavy seat is to buy one of those cheap fold up metal luggage carts and bungy cord the thing on or something. . .

 "Good so far - not too elegant" 2010-04-07
By M. Barker (Monterey, CA)
I bought this seat because my 5 month old grew much faster than expected and I needed a seat that will stay rear facing for as long as possible. As far as I know this is the only seat that goes up to 45 lbs for the rear facing position. Most seats go only up to 35 lbs.

The seat is heavy (as a lot of reviews point out), but I'm not planning on carrying it around.

The build looks solid and my baby is very comfortable in the chair. The one thing that I don't like is the fact that all the belt and buckles are hanging and jingling from the back of the seat. I know that all that "stuff" is needed for the different install positions and options, but it looks real messy and I wish they made it more elegant and put together.

Also, a note to those that are planning to use the seat from day one. My baby was about 21 lbs/ 28 1/2 inches when we go the seat and when I strap her in and try to tighten, I have a little bit of trouble with the straps. I have figured out that the buckle that connects the two shoulder straps in the back gets stuck between the baby seat and the car's seat. I can still tighten the straps properly with a little push on the buckle. However, I don't know if this would be possible if you start with your brand new baby that is around 7-8 lbs.

As far as the fit of the seat in smaller cars... I drive a 2002 Saturn SL. It is a fairly small car, with a small back seat. I am able to have the seat in the rear face position in the middle of my back seat. I had to straighten the back of my seat, but I didn't have to move it closer to the wheel. It's good enough for me.

 "5 Point Harness Safety and Comfort" 2010-04-06
By T. Smith (GRAPEVINE, TX, US)
My 5 year old is petite and still weighs less that 40 lbs. A booster seat does NOT position her safely. A trial fitting had the booster seat shoulder strap across the base of her neck, a very unsafe positon and a booster seat would not provide the impact protection of this 5 point harness which holds her securely in her seat. A child can't squirm and pull the shoulder strap behind her back like so many children do in booster seats. Fortunately, this seat is very comfortable, so my child was able to play with books and toys on a recent 6 hour road trip without complaining. We travel by air several times throughout the year, so it is convenient to carry the folded car seat with shoulder straps in the airport.



My current car is older and does not have latch, but this car seat was tested with and without latch installation. It was easy to install the seat securely with my car's seat belt system and when we purchase a new car with latch or visit family, we can quickly install her car seat with latch and use it safely up to 80 lbs.



I love it, but most importantly, my child does too!

 "Awesome" 2010-03-26
By P. Narendorf
It was not easy to install the first time, but it will be from now on if it needs to be moved. It is narrow enough to fit in my Jetta and still allow room for two adults to sit comfortably in the back seat. It is tight on leg space for the front passenger when rear-facing, but not impossible. Baby loves being able to see out of the window better. She sleeps much better in the car now, as I suspect she is far more comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone.

 "soft and comfy..." 2010-03-22
By S. Constable
Not only is this a safe chair but it's easy to install, it has all the bells a whistles that a car seat should have and my daughter is super cozy is the comfy plush seat. I would reccomend this seat to anyone. I bought this product because it was reccomended and had a very low VOC emmissions rating. GREAT CAR SEAT! Not sure I would put my infant in it though, I started my daughter in it at 4 mths old.

 "Love this seat!" 2010-03-21
By J. Bellucci (Virginia)
Ok, I love this seat. I started out by buying one to use and see how I liked it. Come to find out I loved it...and went and bought a second! We have two kids and another on the way. We opted to put our 17m old RF behind the driver and our 3.5yr old FF on our plus one seat in the Honda Odyssey. This means that when #3 arrives he will comfortably fit RF behind the passenger allowing us to not have to toss a kid in the 3rd row and maintain good storage in our car. They fit so nicely. They are so easy to install. The kids are comfortable. And we got a GREAT deal on them at [...] coupon code KIDS20 is 20% off! I only paid 239!



I just sold our Britax Frontier (a pain in the neck to install using a lap belt) and are putting our Britax Boulevard as a spare in another car. I'm so glad we've made the switch from Britax to Sunshine Kids. You definitely will be happy to have these additions in your car...and your kids will be thrilled;)



Downside...a little heavy and this doesn't turn into a booster like the Frontier...but really, at 80 pounds harnessed we'll look at our options when they meet that weight limit!!
