Product Description
Belt positioning boosters are the biggest advancement in child safety in years. Automobile seat belts are designed for children above 57" tall. Safety advocates suggest that your child ride in a booster as long as possible. Most states have enacted legislation to keep children in boosters until ages 6 to 8 years. But what it takes to keep an older child content is not the same as a baby. This is an age when children are busy in activities and moms, dads, and grandparents are all involved in dropping off and picking up the children. Our Folding Booster Car Seat provides the answers for both you and your child. The patented folding feature takes moving the seat from car to car and storing on the trunk to a new level of convenience. It's not just for travel, it is a seat that fits your daily lifestyle. Deluxe padding will keep your child comfortable and content, even on the long trips. Rotating armrests make installation easier because the belt path is clear. The rotating armrests also improve the ease of use because children have an easier time crawling in and out by themselves. The back support stays fully enclosed as the height is adjusted. This means side support and protection in every position. The headrest has a full EPS foam (bicycle helmet foam) liner to absorb energy in an impact. The six-position height adjust will grow with your child, and is designed for children 3 to 10 years old, 30 to 100 lbs, and 38" to 57" tall. It feels very substantial compared to others but weighs less than 10 lbs! Wide seat really fits the larger, older children.

 Great design, easy to use February 8, 2007

It took no time to figure out how to use this seat. My daughter meets the minimum height and weight requirements, so I am moving here from a 5 point harness Britax to this booster in a second car. The seat is easy to install and remove, and also easy to stowe in the trunk when not in use by simply pulling the rear latch and folding. I can definately see using it for travel on planes, as it is easy to fold and light enough to carry. My daughter also likes the fold out cup holders for water. They are sturdy and easy to tuck back in when storing or carrying the seat. Highly recommended.

We've owned the Compass booster car seat for 3+ years now, and it's still looking great despite daily use and abuse. I researched the safest carseats when changing my eldest son from a 5 point harness up to a booster. This Compass had the best safety rating. The seat fabric is easy to remove and wash. It has adjusted easily as my son has grown - he's now 53" tall (4'5") and 65lbs and its still good for him. We've done a a few long car trips (up to 1000 miles) and he's never complained about his seat. From practical point of view, the side cup holders slide back into the seat if you are tight on space, and the arm rests lift up for ease of entry. It folds in half neatly and is easy to transfer from car to car, and it's travelled safely as checked luggage on flights too. I will be buying another one once my 2nd child moves up from his Britax Marathon.
Excellent Seat! June 5, 2007
We bought this seat for my daughter when she turned five and we both love it! It is comfortable for her and I feel confident in knowing how secure and safe she is in it. We travel often and I love that it folds in half and can be stored on the plane with no problems. Great product! We will buy another one when the time is right for my son.
Excellent Booster December 6, 2006
I did a lot of research on the best booster out there. I tried to like the Britax but the head wings were not for my daughter, she likes to be able to see outside and I know her safety should be more important but on long car trips there must be a happy child in the car. So we tried out the Compass and we could not be happier. It was rated by Consumer Reports as excellent, the same as the Britax. It has the side impact material. It fits her frame well, she is petite and tall. She is 4 so she is old enough for a booster and understands all the rules that go with it. She is very comfortable in it and she loves the bells and whistles. The cupholders and the arm rests. It is also so easy to fold and take into another car or leave with a friend, no more big bulky chair to drag around. I highly recommend it!
I love this product! January 11, 2007
That's just it- I love this product, and I am so happy that we purchased it. It saves time and space, and is very safe for my children. We bought 2, one for each of my children- and they have been wonderful!
