Sunshine debuts first folding convertible car seat


The first convertible seat that folds will debut in September from Sunshine Kids, a new player in the car seat biz. It works rear facing to 33 lbs and forward facing with a five point harness to 65 pounds. Pricey at $200, but this might appeal to some parents who car pool. The seats folds down to a mere 6.5” inches in width. It is well designed with adjustable base for reclining and EPS foam and an amazing five harness slot positions. FYI: The engineer who is behind the Sunshine seat is the same fellow who designed on an air-bag compatible infant seat for the company XSCI that bombed a few years ago.
