Let's talk convertible car seats!

Ok I need opinions again!

We've stretched the time of our infant carriers as far as we can, well with Jackson, and now were looking at having to buy convertible car seats.

I've been looking at the graco my ride 70 and the safety first air ride 65. What are y'alls thoughts, what do y'all recommend for safety and comfort under the $200 range?

 

I love the Diono Radians they are closer to $300 retail but you can find deals. It is rear-facing to 40 lbs, 5-point until 65lbs, and bootser seat until 100lbs. It will be the only seat you need to buy plus you can fit 3 in a row! which means with 2 of them there is enough room for a 3 person to sit in the row with the seats. They are also super easy to get the kids in and out of because they don' have high sides you have to lift them over!
 
Here is a link to one of the deals I found
