The Best Booster Seat

We just got our seats for my twins after a long wait. I was very close to canceling the order, but I am so glad I didn't. I love the latch installation. The ability to recline the seats will be great for long trips. This is the sturdiest booster seat I've ever come across.

Safety and comfort!

We just got this Clek Oobr and it looks extremely safe and sturdy so much more than the one we replaced. I love that the cushion on the bottom can come off for easier cleaning, as well that the material is stain, bacteria and moisture resistant (perfect for my pre-schooler)! I also love that it reclines and the head rest moves as your child grows!

Luv the Clek

Well, it has been a long time coming. I like the other gentleman have been waiting for a booster with a latch. While there is a lot of talk and concerns regarding having a booster with a latch system. I feel it is wise decision..We have latches on our cars seat and carriers, right? After doing tons of research my concern, as with most mothers, is that the seat belt would not catch if you did not have the movement of the booster along with child; therefore, preventing the seat belt from catching. I even sent the NTSB a note asking about the pro's and con's of the latch on a booster, there response was of course all children should be in booster's per state laws, but they were looking into the new boosters with latch system and they were neither for or against it. While I think it is to each his own as to whether or not you prefer a latch, here are the reasons I LOVE IT......
1. Installation was a breeze as were the instructions.
2. The feel of the fabric is so plush, all my daughter kept saying is"it's soo cozy!"
3. First day, my daughter spilled her choc milk..it cleaned with the damp rag (WOW)
4. MOST IMPORTANT...While the seat is secured with the latch system, the back still moves so that if we were in a collision, she would still have movement to help the seat belt catch. Not to mention side impacts. With the latch the seat stays in place, preventing the booster from moving side to side. Which is the big concern.
5. While most boosters also highly recommend that you secure your booster when your child is not in it, with the Clek that is already taken care of for you. That was one of the things that didn't even cross my mind until I started doing research. The boosters can become flying torpedos if you were in a crash and your child did not occupy the seat and it was not secured.
Since having kids I have been a big fan of Britax. Well, folks not on this one. Clek has NAILED IT!!!!
Hope this has helped you!
The only thing I did not like about the booster was the price! While I feel there is not price in the safety of my child the price tag was a little much.
Also, please excuse tyop's and bad grammar, I am typing this while as always multi tasking. breaking up fights between the kids, cleaning up..well you get the picture!!

Worth the wait

We were going nuts waiting for this to ship, and almost gave up, but now that we've got it, I'd definitely say it was worth the wait. I've always liked the idea of a booster with latch, and clek's rigid latch system works perfectly. Installation and removal couldn't be easier. My six year old loves the look of the seat, and immediately remarked how comfortable it is. The fabric is nice and soft on the skin, and the head rest is perfectly sized to give protection and comfort for naps on long trips. My daughter really loves the recline feature too. The seat has a very solid feel probably due to the magnesium core that wraps around the torso. I also like the fact that the headrest is secured by two steel rods, which look much stronger than the flimsy plastic extensions seen on so many other seats. This thing really looks like it would hold together and protect a child in a powerful impact. All in all a very impressive piece of engineering from both safety and ergonomic/comfort points of view. We're extremely pleased with the quality of this product, and will probably buy a second seat for my wife's car.
