Booster Mode We appreciate the machine washable seat pad for when—not if—messes strike. The company says you can wash the seat pad separately in cold water on a gentle cycle. It’s also safe to tumble dry separately on low heat for 10 to 12 minutes. We appreciate the bright red seat belt guides beneath the armrests and under the headrest to help kids know where their seat belt goes. While kids missed having two cup holders (there’s only one), they didn’t struggle to fit or keep drinks in it. It's a favorite among our pros because of the nicely padded headrest to ensure your child stays comfy during long trips. That cushy headrest can be set to any of 11 positions, moving up a total of 6.5 inches to grow with your child. "My children always appear comfortable in this comparative to other boosters where they have felt cramped or less supported," says GH Institute Chief Technologist and Executive Technical Director Rachel Rothman, a mom of three and our lead tester for car seats and booster seats.

You can buy booster seats that are simply the cushion part. But some Group 2/3 car seats also convert to a booster cushion for Group 3 mode. Essentially, this removes the seat's protective sides (Group 2) and turns the seat into a booster cushion.

Why You Should Trust Us

Once your child weighs more or is taller than the forward-facing limit for their car seat, they should use a booster seat to allow the vehicle lap and shoulder seat belt to fit properly. Experts agree children should stay rear-facing until at least age 2. The recommendations from both the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and NHTSA are that babies stays rear-facing as long as is allowed by the seat, and at the very least until they are 2 years old. Children can move to a booster as young as four years old. Still, despite the convenience of a booster, BabyGearLab agrees with the experts that children stay in their 5-point harness car seats as long as the manufacturer's recommendations allow. Depending on the car seat, this shift from a 5-point harness usually happens between 40-65 lbs. While parents love marking milestones as their little ones grow, transitions from one level of safety seat to another should not occur until your child has reached the maximum limits of the seat as defined by the manufacturer. Each time you move to a new level of safety seat, there is a reduction in the protection it provides. Don't be in a hurry!

While the armrests don’t adjust, they’re cushy for added comfort. Parents and kids alike will love the removable, dishwasher-safe cup holders that fold into themselves to save space. Additionally, the seat is a breeze to clean—simply toss the seat pad in the washing machine (cold water on delicate cycle with mild detergent, then hang dry). UK law states that children must use a child car seat until they're 12 years old or 135cm/4ft 5in tall, whichever comes first.Your child can graduate from the booster seat once they can wear a seat belt correctly without one. This usually happens when a child reaches 4 feet 9 inches in height and is between the ages of 8 and 12. Booster seat age: Do 3-, 4- and 5-year-olds need a booster? Your child has been riding in a car seat since birth. But just when you've figured out the infant car seats from the convertible car seats, you learn that there are multiple options for forward-facing booster car seats too. Actually many booster car seats have more than one mode.
