Car seat intallation question

Is it better to install the car seat in the center seat with a seatbelt or side seat with LATCH?

Our car only has LATCH on the sides. Our car seat can be installed either way.

Patti,

When we went to get the seat installed, they told us it was not meant to install LATCH in the middle. She made us reinstall using the seatbelt & said the middle seat is the safest place to put the seat.

It depends on your car.

My car has LATCH for the middle seat, as do a lot of other cars.

Middle is not an option for me anyway, since I have DS too, and there just isn't enough room in my car.

Center seat with a seatbelt is better than side with LATCH if you can get the angle of the seat right -- sometimes theres a bump that makes it difficult.
