Booster Car Seats

Booster Car Seats

Also called 'Belt Positioning Booster' seats.

Can be used forward-facing, only.

Minimum weight requirement of 30 - 40 lbs.*

No true installation is necessary, unlike other types of car seats you may be used to. The Booster Seat is not held in the vehicle seat with LATCH or vehicle Lap/Shoulder belts. The child is secured in front using the car's shoulder and lap belts, taking the place of a 5-point harness. Some Booster Seats may require or suggest the use of a Tether for safety.

Not compatible with strollers.

No 5-point harness. Child sits in the Booster Seat and uses the vehicles lap and shoulder belt** to secure them.

*All children are safest in a 5-point harness, which Booster seats lack. Younger children should stay in a harnessed seat even if they hit the 30 or 40 lb. mark. We recommend that Booster seats be used for children ages 4 and up.

**Booster seats MUST be used with a car's lap AND shoulder belt - you cannot use a Booster seat in a vehicle's seat that only has a lap belt. Some alternatives (such as Vests) can be used with just a lap belt in conjunction with a Tether Strap.
