Sunshine Kids Radian XTSL convertible car seat Ventura Sunshine Kids improves car seat installation with the Sunshine Kids Radian XTSL . Did you know that 85% of car seats are installed incorrectly? LATCH makes car seat installation easier. Most vehicle and car seat manufacturers enforce a maximum weight limit of 40 - 48 lbs with LATCH. Now, with so many higher harness weight car seats on the market accommodating children up to 80 lbs, incorrect LATCH use and installation still remain a problem. The solution? Sunshine Kids SuperLATCH (SL). Of all the convertible car seats available on the market today, only Sunshine Kids offers a SuperLATCH system that allows the use of LATCH beyond 48 lbs. No more tricky seat belt installations, and best of all, with SuperLATCH, the Radian XTSL convertible car seat installs in one minute and doesn't require reinstallation after 48 lbs. And for those who like to keep their options open, the Sunshine Kids Radian XTSL also can be installed using your vehicle's seat belts. Standout Features: SuperLATCH installs in one minute and allows use of LATCH up to 80 lbs! No need to reinstall the seat after 48 lbs No seat belt required, no top tether required Rear-facing to 45 lbs Side Impact Protection Adjustable headrest Forward-facing to 80 lbs Convenience: For parents with smaller cars and more than one child, the Sunshine Kids Radian XTSL convertible car seat fits 3 seats across, even in 4-door sedans. The XTSL folds and can be slung over your shoulder for transport (thought it is a bit heavy!). Installation: Thanks to SuperLATCH, the Sunshine Kids Radian XTSL installs in just a minute using LATCH and requires neither seatbelts nor the top tether. You can also install the car seat using your vehicle's seatbelts. SuperLATCH incorporates high strength connectors, Steelweave webbing, and the Easy-Tite adjuster, which makes getting a rock-solid installation just a matter of giving a quick pull. These features, combined with the Radian XTSL's steel alloy frame, makes Sunshine Kids SuperLATCH the only LATCH system that can be used up to 80 lbs. You may be wondering how Sunshine Kids overcomes the usual 48 lb LATCH limit. All lower LATCH anchor bars in cars meet the same NHTSA requirements, so a LATCH bar in a Toyota is the same as a LATCH bar in a Ford. Sunshine Kids tested the Radian XTSL up to 80 lbs using both FMVSS 213 and NCAP standards and using only SuperLATCH and no top tether. The XTSL convertible car seat passed both tests. Sunshine Kids and EliteCarSeats.com recommends using Top Tether, but for those with vehicles with no Top Tether anchor, the XTSL does not require the use of Top Tether for proper safety. Note: SuperLATCH past 48 lbs is only intended for use on vehicles manufactured after September 2005. If your vehicle was manufactured before September 2005, you will need to reinstall your Sunshine Kids car seat after 48 lbs using your vehicle's seat belts. Benefits for Baby: Thick, m...
