  • Have had this seat for several years for my daughter who is almost 9. We just took the back of to make it a backless booster. She loves how comfy it is and I love how easy install is! Feb 15, 2024

  • Great booster! Adjustable shoulder width and height. Love that it can eventually become a backless booster. Sep 28, 2022

    My daughter is very comfortable in this booster seat. I love that it has cup holders. The seatbelt doesn't always glide easily through the guides which is my only complaint. Jul 06, 2021

  • Slim I can fit three across is my Hyundai Tucson! Jul 01, 2021

    Perfect transition out of the five point harness simple and easy to latch to the car very convenient to take apart and clean does not take up much much space in the car at allZ Aug 23, 2020

  • This is the only booster seat that would keep up the my very big kid. He was 7when we first bought this, and was 75 lbs and 4 foot 3 inches tall. Dec 03, 2019

  • My son is large and said this was uncomfortable. I found it extremely difficult to locate the user Manuel for this product. Feb 08, 2018

  • This is a booster seat that I would highly recommend! My son is 7, 60 lbs and is about 50 inches tall and was extremely comfortable in this seat. I felt confident in the safety of it. A must get! Oct 03, 2017

  • my daughter loves this car seat. She says its comfortable and she loves the pull out drink trays. She also says the head rest is very comfortable. May 19, 2017

  • I love it, it's nice an comfy. Then I read you have to have a car headrest for support to use it and we don't so it went back. Mar 30, 2017

    Comfy, tall enough for my tall 9 year old. Downside base is too wide to fit 3 car seats across Mar 27, 2017

  • I got a chance to try this booster as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. This has all the makings of a luxurious and high-quality Diono seat, but at such an affordable price tag. Mar 15, 2017

  • (what's this?)

    We've been using for a few weeks now. I was impressed with it right out of the box. Love the framing on the seat, makes seat a bit heavier but I feel my kids are protected. No issues getting buckled. Mar 15, 2017

  • (what's this?)

    My 7 year old loves this seat b/c its comfortable. I love that it can grow with him, has aluminum reinforced sides, retractable cups, packs flat, and that he actually LOVES being in it! Mar 15, 2017

    I love that it is lightweight but also durable and built well. It is easy to adjust as my child grows with a headrest that raises & width that can be expanded. I trust it to keep my child safe. Mar 15, 2017

  • (what's this?)

    My husband and I love that even though it's a bigger booster it's still easy to move from car to car. It's a bit bulky if you have narrow seats or more than one child in a car seat/booster. Mar 13, 2017

  • (what's this?)

    I love that it uses LATCH and adjusts to all different sizes. The color is great, too. My daughter says it's really comfortable and she loves it. It is heavy/bulky but that's my only complaint. Mar 13, 2017

  • (what's this?)
