Ok, so the title says it all...what do you all think of the Foonf? I know it is not out yet, but just wondering.what everyones thoughts are on it and how it will be. Has the company posted any pictures or anything of it anywhere? Thanks!

I think it looks cool, but the price point is very high. I am a big ERF person, but with Radians going to 45 pounds at almost half the cost, I can't justify it. $500 is an awful lot of money for a carseat. For not much more, you can import a Swedish seat that RFs to 65 pounds.

It is also insanely heavy. In RF mode, it weighs 36 pounds. In FF it weighs 32 pounds. In contrast, a Marathon weighs 17.5 pounds and a Radian R100 weighs 23 pounds.

Here is the info about it...

I'd rather and do have a swedish seat. Mine RF till 40 (or maybe 45 I forget) and only RF's which is kinda cool.

i think i will get one when new baby outgrows the infant carseat. hopefully the price goes down some because $450 is a bit pricey but i think the 9 year life makes it worth it because DD can use it from age 3.5 to 6 then new baby can use it to expiration date. as it is 2 carseats we have will have expired by then and we would end up spending $400 or so to replace those anyway

36 pounds!?

I think the black one looks cool but don't care for the white ones. It also looks waaay too high-profile for my liking, but I haven't seen one in person so

for sure.
