“I LOVE this seat and so does my son! I bought this seat to replace one that I had and hated because I could never get it installed tight enough by myself. I had this seat installed in under a minute, and it is in tight! It does not budge! I no longer have to have anxiety every time I need to move it and reinstall my car seat. I wish I would have bought this seat from the start and saved myself a lot of hassle. This is truly the only seat I have ever been able to install correctly by myself. My son seems a lot more comfortable in it as well. Wish I could give it 100 stars!” .
Booster seats are the last stage in car seats, which is typically going to start around the ages of 7 to 10 years old, though the weight limit for them is around 110 pounds, so experts say that adults can and should use them if they can. Some booster seats will be high-back-only, backless boosters, or can convert between the two modes: this Clek Oobr one that Saxton recommends is the latter. “What I always recommend is a booster with lower anchors, so it attaches to the car,” says Saxton, which is why she likes this model. It has a rigid latch system, so it’s easy to use, has energy-absorbing foam, and she also calls out the fact that it reclines, so your kid can take a nap. “It’s got some of the best crash-test results and has a high weight limit, too.” .
In the convertible category, both McCabe and Saxton suggested the eight-pound Cosco Scenera, which is easily accessible in most retail stores. “It’s a $40 car seat that you can find at Walmart,” Saxton says, “but it’s easy to install in planes, can be installed upright so babies can have neck control, and comes in a one-piece shell, so there are no extra parts you have to deal with.” .
