Booster Seats

[ashleyst12]

To all and Toby,
My Daughter will be 2 1/2 and we are planning on moving her over to a booster seat from her current car seat. What are the best recommendations out there in regards to quality and safety???? I appreciate any help.

Thanks,
Tony

First, I'd recommend that a 2 1/2 year old stay in a convertible as long as she fits, unless the seat is deemed bad or is needed for a younger sibling.

So, assuming that you do really need a new seat, I'd look for a combo seat (harnessed, then turns into a booster) that has two things: 1. higher harness slots than her convertible (any brand but Cosco does) and 2. a front harness adjuster.

You might want to check out my website, www.carseatdata.org for my list of seats that do this. Or get the Toddler Bargains booster report.
