[blparent] Carseats for children 1 year-old or older?

[Tammy, Paul and Colyn]

Hi,

the weight limit is 40 pounds.  Actually, I find it easier to pull then the 
smaller version, and it doesn't work well on rough terrain.  But if you're 
just using it in city streets and on sidewalks it shouldn't be a problem. 
It's well worth the money you'll spend on it, and you can resell it when 
you're finished.
