 2008 Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Best Bet booster! |
| Review Date: October 27, 2008 |

| This was one of the top 10 boosters rated by a 10/1/08 report by Insurance Institute for Highway Safety report. Who am I to argue? We previously were using the Cosco Alpha Omega Elite Convertible Car Seat, which as a booster was giving us some problems (the lap belt was not lying flat on her thighs). I researched the seat and found out it was no longer scoring well for a booster for this reason. Sad because we loved this seat! In addition, she could not hook it herself.
So, our requirements were 1) lightweight seat, 2) easy buckling, 3) ability to adjust for multiple cars (e.g. we want to know the seatbelt will be positioned properly), 4) cupholder The multiple designs, adjustable armrests, and cupholders on EACH side were bonuses. Here's what we like: -It's lightweight, can be easily buckled, there is an adjuster strap that attaches like a tether to either side of the seat - it has a clip to hold the seatbelt down and away from the neck Here's what we don't like: -The cupholders are sturdy and fairly easy to pull out to use (could be easier) but shallow. -The armrests don't snap in as firmly as I would like - they are held in with plastic clips, which if bent, cause them to come out. -While she seems comfy, there is little padding - the ones due out November 08 don't have the character designs but seem to sport more padding Edit: After yet ANOTHER spill (don't forget a 6-pack of soda in a hot car), I really want to point out that this bad boy is super easy to pull the padding off and throw in the washer. It comes out great - no fraying, and my 10 y.o. actually put the cover back on. We used the garden hose to spray the whole seat down, because the cup holders won't come out completely (and were gross)! We also purchased the "Fly Away" (pink butterflies) style as well, and while the quilting does make it appear to have more padding, it is not too substantial. My daughter has never complained of it being uncomfortable - even on long (4+ hour) car rides. Some people may worry about their children's head comfort, and you can purchase something like Rest UpRight Pillow for Children(Ages 3 to 6 years)-Berry PINK. I have a puppy dog one that dated back to my 10 y.o., but it is similar enough (but more expensive) and works great. |

| My daughter still has at least 2 more years in a booster seat, but felt she had outgrown her Compass booster. The cover on this seat is held on by elastic straps that easily unhook if you need to wash it. The seat also has a removable strap that can be used to hold a seatbelt firmly across the correct position on shoulder if needed -- so though it is a backless booster, it is still a belt-positioning booster. |
| My daughter loves it! |

| Was looking for a "Cars" car seat every where. Found it on amazon. Wanted a light weight car seat that was easy to move around. This works very well and my daughter loves the theme. I also like the fact that the cup holders can be pushed in and taken out only when needed. |
| Great |

| I bought this for a visiting aunt's son who loves the movie "Cars." The seat is very comfortable, easy to put together and easy to adjust to the size of the child. I also love the cupholders and the fact that they're out of the way of kicking feet, plus can be tucked away when not in use. Although the seat is sturdy, it isn't too difficult to pull it apart for packaging and shipping (the arms are removable and the cover comes off for clean up). An absolute steal for the price! |

| My granddaughters were delighted with the new Princess car seats, I feel good knowing they will remain in them and safe. The service was excellent they were received by them the next day. I had a very positive experience. Thanks |
