My son is 2.5 years old and am thinking for purchasing this for a plane ride and extra car seat. Is this seat too small for a 2.5 year old?

I used this seat until my oldest turned 4 when I moved him into a high back booster. I think he actually prefers the Combi seat to the booster he moved into, but he hit the weight/height limitations recently. As far as taking it on a plane I always take 1 of my Combi Coccoro seats on with me. I have a 20mo old and a 6mo old who will take turns in the seat depending on who is napping because the cushion makes it more comfortable to sleep in than the plane seat. The seat fits very easily into the plane seat also, so no struggle there. We fly internationally quite frequently and this has been a lifesaver for me on those long flights when it's difficult and uncomfortable to hold a heavy sleeping baby (or 2!) the whole way.

I believe so...I have one and I moved my daughter out of it before she was 3. It is a great seat to use after the infant seat but once they get to be around 2 and they want to sit up, this isn't the seat for you.

It depends on your child. My girl is a very small almost 2 year old and I predict that she can stay in this seat for at least another year. If your child is larger/taller you might not be able to use this seat for very long.

It might get small pretty quickly. If you older child always sits in the back it might last a bit longer but sometimes my youngest wanted to sit in the back and the front was too small for my oldest. At the time we had this stroller I had a 4 and 1 year old I now have a joovy too ultralight. That is working out for us kids are now 5.5 and 2.5.

I think it would work perfectly for your 2 year old. However, it might be a bit too small for your 5 year old. I believe it's up to 44", so his feet will probably be almost touching the ground-cuttinf it too close.

It is perfect size for my 2 year old. I think it would be ok fit up to a 5 year old. Probably not much older.

I bought this for my 2 year old and her 5 year old brother plays with it also with her, but honestly I think it might be a little small for a five year old. My 2 1/2 year old loves it though.

My son is five and weighs 45 pounds. He was about your son's size when he was 2, but then he thinned out. This thing is good up to about 100 pounds for front facing five point restraint. The five point restraint is simply the safest. We also have a booster for when he goes with family or friends, as this is not as convertible. But, overall, I love the britax 5-point restraint seat for longer trips especially as when he nods off his head has a place to rest. Your son is only 2, so I would recommend investing in this. Poorly fitted boosters can cause evisceration of organs and spinal cord injury to children. Why risk it? My son is five and weighs 45 pounds.

No this toy is not a good choice for air travel in a comercial flight. The box is large and will too heavy for 2.5 year old. My child is 3years old and she canoot carry to far.

The beauty of this stroller is that it's lightweight, compact, and durable. The compact part is your issue here. Not a lot of width in the seat area. We use ours for my 1 yr old and 2 1/2 year old. It might work for your trip, but your son will very shortly if not already outgrow it. You might be in a tough spot due to age and size of kids. We were recently in Disneyland (CA). They do rent double strollers at a reasonable rate (by Disney standards).

Hi there! I think it will be too small for two-year-old child. Better to buy a pillow.

Even if you slide the seat all the way forward, in my opinion it will be too big for a 3 year old. My son just turned 5, and it is perfect for him. He started riding it around 4 1/2, and it was a little difficult for him at that time. I believe there is a smaller model, that may be more suitable. My 7 and 8 year old also fit on this when they slide the seat all the way back.

I think so. It's supposed to be for children 2-6 I think but it is WAY too big for even our 4 year old grandson when the seat is pushed as far forward as possible.

Personally, I feel that this car would be a bit too small for him/her. I bought it for a one-year old and believe it will be great till she is about two. She is very petite.

hello, i would double check its specs but i think it would depend on the kid's height. i have a 5yr old and a 3yr old, im not using it w my 3yr old yet although he is tall enough. i just figure that is safest o have them in a 5pt harnest carseat specially since most cars now have side airbags etc, hope this helps :)

Yes, I bought this for my 2 1/2 year old ...he is big for his age 39" and 40 lbs...fits him now, but...much more growth don't think he will fit under tables...table ok for a 2 or 3 year old...would think a 5 year old would appreciate more space. I Would invest in a larger set

I bought it for my very small 5 year old and it's perfect for her. The seat does adjust though!

It would fit a two year old, the storage spaces are low enough add well at the height. The only concern is the stool for a 2 year old, I'd opt for a chair. My niece is 4 and forgets it's not a chair and leans back sometimes for support and has almost fallen. The stool is steady which kept her from toppling over.

i think it would work for a two year old, my son is two and it seemed to be ok for him. He is average size and he sat just fine on it. he loved it. But please note, this is a cool suitcase but it is very small and the wheels don't turn, plus it relies on the child holding on for him to not fall off. We were going to use it as a carry on and for my son to ride on but it didn't work out that well for us. Because of how the suitcase opens, it would have been awkward to get in and out of on the plane. hope this helps!
