my sister just moved my nephew into a huge gigantic recaro seat. when facing the rear (i babysat this weekend) and i placed it in the middle of my back seat. i couldnt even see out the rear view mirror. it is huge.. immense is the word.. it seems to have good reviews.. but i think they are making them gigantic! too big for a mid sized car! it was even difficult to get the baby in! i struggled and im complaining.. thats all..
