FacebooktwittermailFacebooktwittermail

Evenflo:

All Evenflo seats with the difficult AmSafe buckles that everyone disliked are in the process of transitioning to different buckles. If consumers are having problems with the AmSafe buckles on seats they already own with harnesses that can be replaced (Maestro, Secure Kid, SureRide, Embrace) they should contact Parent Link for a replacement buckle. The Symphony is going back to an IMMI buckle (which it had originally). The other Evenflo seats will transition to a different buckle style.

New Symphony DLX & LX models with redesigned headrest. Will be shipping to U.S. retailers in December. Should be available in stores by mid-January. The new DLX model will be also be going to Canada. The Canadian version follows the same timing as the U.S. version. The Symphony DLX price point in the U.S. will remain at $229.99.
