How do they do this? Given that a rear-facing seat barely fits in most cars with the passenger seats all the way up, and by "most cars" I mean big, American, cars, not panty-waisted Swedish cars, knee surgery rates among Swedish parents must be quite high.
You know, every week I ponder whether the Roundabout is properly installed in my car. Neither the Britax's nor the car's manual gives me any confidence -- each one passes the buck and says to refer to the other -- and the local organization that checks seats only does so once every few months. I think I could drive out to some distant county to get a police check if I had the chance.

I don't even want to talk about the whole "in the middle, but insalled with the seatbelt, no tether" versus "on the outboard, latched and tethered, but more vulnerable in event of side impact" debate that we have every couple of weeks.

And is it me, or is it really, really hard to get the straps just the right tension so that the seat does not move more than an inch side to side or front to back?

At least my bra is the right size.
