Diono radian rXT Just My Color Series Review
The Diono radian rXT is a tried and tested car seat that parents love. Now is has a new “Just My Color” series to brighten up your vehicle. This new set of seats have dynamic colors and customized detailing on top of the classic safety standards Diono is known for.
So why Diono? Local moms shared their reviews of the radian rXT:
“High shell height for extended rear facing. T was six when he was turned forward facing, which was very important for him due to low bone density. Emmalynn is three and very tall (wearing a 5T). She is still comfortable rear facing. The ability to adjust the rear facing angle using the Diono tested angle wedge makes it easier to fit a RF seat behind the driver … The infant and toddler cushions are very supportive and wash easily. They make the seat a great option for tiny babies and support slender toddlers wonderfully.
(Seat includes) a medical information pocket. My kids have complex medical needs. The integrated medical info pocket is a great addition in the event of needing emergency responders. I would definitely recommend this seat. It is easy to use, fits a variety of body types well and installs easily in every car we have owned.” – Diana Hellard, mom of two medically complex children ages 8 and 3
“When our second child came along, we decided we needed to do even more extensive research (on car seats.) The Diono radian rXT always came out on top for our list of priorities. It was safe, had a steel core, airplane safe and boasted it could fit three in the back seat comfortably. For me personally, I loved that I could put my newborn rear-facing and turn it around when he was old enough.” -Beverly Street, mom of four
“We downsized to a smaller car/SUV crossover. I’m a stay-at-home mom but I babysit and I needed room in my car for three car seats. (The Diono) was the smallest seat on the market and had amazing safety ratings. Installing it was a little hard, but it is totally worth it! My daughter loves it. When I’m not babysitting I take out other seats and have plenty of room for two adults in my back seat. I would absolutely recommend it to a new mom! It’s a seat that can grow with the child.” –Harlee Damiani, mom of one.
“We chose the radian rXT for several reasons, including its strength and safety. The steel frame appealed to us, although it does make it heavy! It was also important for us to have a car seat that offered side impact and extra head protection. The slim design was a bonus, as it allowed us to install the two kids’ car seats next to each other in the back of our sedan so that my husband and I could take turns entertaining the baby during a long trip … I would recommend this to a new mom since we are five years in and still love it!” –Rachel Couch, mom of two.
