#DIONO RADIAN RXT INSTALLATION VIDEO INSTALL#
Not Super Easy Install: Attaching the base to the car seat feels a bit dicey, like you're going to pinch off your finger, but once that deed is done the install itself is pretty straightforward.We especially hate the way the base attaches to make the seat safe for forward and rear-facing and the fact that the harness must be rethreaded. Janky Construction: The Radian rXT feels poorly made compared to car seats like those from Nuna, Clek, and Peg-Perego, which isn't a huge surprise considering the price point is ~30% less expensive for the Diono seat.Supports Three Across: At only 17 inches wide, the Radian rXT allows you to install three car seats in your car’s back row.Converts to Booster Seat: The Radian rXT converts to a booster seat for kids 50 to 120 pounds.Forward-Facing Until 80 Pounds: This is one of the higher forward-facing five-point harness weight limits out there.(Cue to 1:30 in this kind of disturbing video to learn more.) Even once a toddler/small child’s legs are scrunched up against the back seat, it is still significantly safer to ride rear-facing than forward-facing. The fact is, the longer a child can rear-face, the safer they’ll be in the event of a collision. Rear-Facing Until 45 Pounds: This seat comfortably supports rear-facing until 45 pounds, which is around year four of a child’s life.(This is a HUGE car seat for a newborn though, taking up a lot of front seat leg room.) Newborn Compatible: The Radian rXT is suitable for babies five pounds and up using the included infant inserts.
It does not have an anti-rebound bar, but it does have a rear-facing tether, which provides a similar safety benefit by helping to prevent seat rotation during a collision.
