I researched for weeks to buy the right booster for my four year old. He is too tall for the five point harness seat we own. I finally choose this seat based on how it looked (great color) and the fact it is an Insurance Institute "Best Bet". I was hesitant due to the lack of reviews; however, I am very pleased. My son loves his seat and says it is very comfortable. I like how it does not easily come apart like the graco booster seat that I used with my older children. The head AND side supports both raise as your child grows unlike most other boosters. I also like that the sides can be adjusted out as your child grows. It is contoured at the bottom which appears to be more comfortable for my son's legs...my daughter's legs used to fall asleep in the Graco booster because of the box like shape.

I would give it five stars if it had LATCH for when the seat is not in use. It is also is a little pricey, but overall I love the seat. My son falls asleep in it and his... Read more

After the IIHS booster safety review was released in September 2010, I ditched my Graco (prior top rating) booster seat for the chicco key fit strada. This seat is built to last and is so much more solid than the graco offerings. That being said, the number one purpose of a booster seat is to position the car's seat belt over the shoulder and thighs properly so that it can do its job. This seat does that superbly. In fact, it is impossible to mess up the lap belt position as long as you don't place it over the booster's arms. My 7 year old complained about it being "harder" to buckle for a couple of days but has been fine ever since. She much prefers this booster over the less comfortable graco booster (we owned the graco booster with the adjustable full back.) There is no latch to hold the seat in place when it is empty, but honestly it has never shifted around. If your child isn't buckled to begin with, latch will keep the booster (not the child) from flying out of the... Read more

We purchased this Pearl color booster for our four year old son about 2 months ago and have been very pleased. Like other reviewers, we were originally attracted to it because of its high safety rating. My son thinks it's very comfortable (he hasn't complained of any bumps, as in a previous review). He does, however, still need a little help buckling himself. The seat is very sturdy (unlike the popular Graco TurboBooster, which fell apart every time I picked it up), has a lot of padding/head support and looks great, too!
