I have a large but young baby who is looking more and more squashed width wise in his infant carrier. He's 98th centile for weight and length so we will need a 25kg ERF seat. I think I've settled on the Diono radian 5 but the only 2 recline options concern me. I don't live near a stockist that I can find to try one out.
Baby is only 4 months old (but is huge) so spends most of the time in the car asleep. I also have bucket seats so the angle will be exaggerated.
I'm wondering whether to buy the Diono radian 5 now and hope the recline is sufficient, or get something cheap and cheerful but safe (maybe a Joie tilt or Joie steadi) up to 18kg for rear facing, with greater recline options, knowing that it won't last as long and will need to be replaced at some point in the future.
Baby is currently 9kg and looking on his weight chart if he continues on the same line, will hit 18kg at about 2-2.5 years old
