Lightweight, Safety-Conscious Booster
September 2, 2020
I was given this Booster Seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. It is a winner in our household! My husband loves how lightweight it is and easy to put together. You snap on the back (if you want the high back), snap in the cup holders and you're done! I like the high back, but it's a breeze to unhook it quickly to convert back to a backless booster. My favorite features are the latch hooks that give it just a bit more security so that the booster is not sliding all over the place & the guided belt path to help with a proper fit. And our daughter loved that it was smaller and seemed more like a "real seat". She had an easy time buckling and unbuckling herself. We have not used it on any long trips, but it's been great for regular daily errands.

Big improvement from our old seat!
September 1, 2020
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat. We are using it with the back in place. Previously, we had been using a convertible seat for our 6-year-old that we had transitioned from a 5-point harness. What made this seat such an improvement was its sleek, low-profile as compared to our convertible. It has a much lower height from the seat and my daughter finds it MUCH easier to climb into. It was also extremely easy to put together from the box; literally just a couple steps and it was ready to buckle into the car. The belt paths are great; it was super easy to see where to feed the belt and it keeps it from rubbing against my daughter's neck while still allowing it to pull easily through. A couple things that brought the rating down from a 5 to a 4: 1. The cupholders aren't quite as secure as I'd hoped; they've fallen off a couple of times. 2. The seat seems a tad bit "loose" towards the top, although, I may just not be used to how a true booster seat works without the top teether harness.

Excellent booster option
September 1, 2020
I was very pleased to trial this seat for the Stellar Product Testing Panel! My eldest is now tall enough for a high-back booster seat and this has been the perfect solution for us. The ease of putting together out of the box is great-nothing worse than having to fiddle around with lots of pieces before you can use the seat. The adjustable head rest is quick and simple to set, Making the seat customizable for your child. The belt guide loops are helpful to ensure proper usage and the double cup holders allow space for a drink AND a snack-important in the life of every child!!

Perfect for both my 3yo AND 6yo!!
September 1, 2020
I received this Booster Seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Originally, I thought this seat would be mostly used by my 3yo. However, it's been the perfect fit for my 6yo! While it actually works perfectly for both kids, my 3yo is still rocking his Britax (our FAV brand!) harness front facing carseat and my 6yo is SO happy with this booster and using it in the 'high back' mode ... SPECIFICALLY because of how the headrest is shaped. My 6yo LOVED having the head support in his Britax car seat (now the 3yo's seat) because of the support it would give him while napping and on long car rides. Since moving into a standard booster seat, he's missed that feature, and most other high back boosters do NOT offer a head rest such as this one. Britax really thought that through as far as safety and comfort and my 6yo has been SO happy to have a seat that fits his requests. The seat is also light weight, easy to install and be used by both adult and child, AND is from a brand we love and trust. Would highly recommend this seat for all kids as they transition from a harnessed seat ... especially because you've got the option of a high back booster or a standard booster and it's an exceptional bang for the buck! Do your family a favor and GO BUY THIS SEAT!!

Easiest install and use!
September 1, 2020
We've been using the Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster seat for a few weeks now and my 7 year old is in love! She had been riding in a Britax 5 point harness seat until then, and the solid construction of the Skyline 2 made me feel very comfortable switching to a high back booster. The seat arrived mostly assembled, leaving only the cup holders to be installed. Installing the car seat in my vehicle was so simple! The premium lower anchors made it quick and easy to attach to the vehicles LATCH system, and the head rest adjuster and belt guides were very intuitive to get my kiddo set up in the safest position. Two cup holders has been a treat for my child, allowing one to be used for a drink and the other for little toys to play with on the road. We haven't used the seat in no-back mode yet, but I feel confident the seat will be just as easy to use when the time comes. I did receive this seat as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for my honest review.

Great Booster, Easy to Use!
September 1, 2020
This is our first seat belt positioning booster, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. I was also kind of nervous having our oldest (almost 6) go from a five-point harness to just the seat belt! Now that we've been using it for awhile, though, I really like it and so does my daughter! We only tried this seat with the high back, because my daughter is so young, and she needs the help from the high back to position the belt on her shoulder AND to remind her to sit still and upright while we're driving. But when the time comes to convert it, I know it'll be super easy because the back just pops off and you're ready to use it as a backless booster! The color-coded belt paths make it really easy for my daughter to know where the belt is supposed to go when she buckles herself, and it also makes it easy for me to check each time to make sure she's done it correctly. It's super quick to see that the belt is following the red path and that she's buckled right. This seat feels really sturdy and secure, just like I'd expect from a Britax car seat. Including this one, we have 5 Britax seats between our 4 kids, and it's definitely our favorite brand! My daughter's favorite thing about this seat (aside from the fact that she thinks it's really comfortable) is her newfound sense of independence. She loves feeling like a big kid, being able to buckle and unbuckle her own car seat. I think she also likes the feeling of responsibility - that we're trusting her to stay in her seat, not unbuckle until we say it's okay, sit upright, etc. It's a big step going from a five point harness to a seat belt positioning booster, but knowing our kiddo is safe in a Britax seat makes me feel so much better about it! Thanks so much to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me this car seat to test!

Skyline Supreme
August 31, 2020
This seat is great and definitely makes my kids feel like big kids in real car seats. If space is tight, it may need to be tested in smaller vehicles as it is a broad seat at the top. In our midsized vehicle it does block a lot of the driver's rearview mirror and back window view if that is a concern. That being said, it is a very comfortable and roomy seat with generous proportions and will likely be the only seat in this style you need. My daughter loved the ease of use when buckling herself in. The holder on the lap belt made seatbelt positioning a snap and hassle free. The fabric is easy to spot clean and I loved that the cup holders are able to pop off to run through the dishwasher and then simply snap back in! Hello mess free car seat rides! I was given this Booster Seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

high back booster for the tall kid
August 31, 2020
I was given this Booster Seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I'll start with what I like about it. It extends enough to fit my 55 inch tall 8 year old. He had been using a backless booster, yet I prefer him in a high back, especially for longer rides. it doesn't take up a lot of space, has latches and the red seatbelt paths even make it easy for anyone to make sure the seat belt is positioned correctly. The cup holders were easy to put on, don't easily come off and are a good size. I think I prefer the seat more than my 8 year old. Out the box, it looks rather plush, when in reality it's not. I thought my son was exaggerating but I sat in it myself and I'm not sure it would be comfortable for a long ride. He also complained a little about it being a tight fit. I'm not sure if it's just not wide enough or if it's because when you extend it, only the head area moves and not the whole back of the seat. However we've used it for a couple of weeks now and he hasn't complained about that since the first day. It is easy to convert to backless which is definitely his preference.

Easy, Safe, Functional!
August 31, 2020
I have loved using the Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat for my 7 year old. Set up was a breeze! It seriously took me 30 seconds to attach the back to the base. It is just as easy to make this a backless booster again. The color coded belt path is so simple as well. The belt goes through a red shoulder height adjuster then along a red lap belt path. It simply utilizes the latch system in my car and then my daughter can buckle herself in easily with the seat belt. It's so easy to adjust to fit the child's height and once she sat down in 10 seconds I had the back height adjusted for her. I also love how safe it is. My favorite safety features is the side impact protection. My daughter specifically loves the cup holders and the head support because she can rest comfortably on longer rides. Initially my only concern was that the back felt a little loose, but once she is buckled in it does not seem to compromise any aspect of safety. I had kept my daughter in a 5 point seat for a very long time and this seat finally puts my mind at ease in allowing her to use a booster instead. I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Fantastic seat! Safe, comfortable, sleek design
August 31, 2020
We are very passionate about car seat safety in our house & absolutely love Britax seats. This booster seat is great both in high back booster mode and in backless mode. It took me a couple of tries to figure out the proper way to click the backrest on to the seat, but it was very easy once I got the hang of it. It's also fairly easy to convert it from high back booster mode to backless mode as well. I was able to remove the fabric easily & reinstall without issues. Installation was pretty simple for my husband to complete in my minivan. The headrest is also very easy to adjust. My daughter said her new seat is comfortable and she loves the built in cup holders. I love that they're removable for easy cleaning if needed. I really like the color coded belt paths as they're very helpful in a proper seatbelt position. Overall, I highly recommend getting this seat. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this Booster Seat.

Easy to install, kid friendly!
August 31, 2020
My son absolutely loves his new Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster seat. He puts his drink in one cup holder and snack in the other, and pulls the belt down for me to buckle him in. I love that it's so easy to install, with seamless set-up and color coded belt paths, and also that he has so much autonomy in getting buckled in. The adjustable head support allows for a perfect fit for my growing son, and situates the seatbelt in the perfect spot. The easy installation frees me up to send him with family or friends without having the hassle of a complicated high back seat. In my opinion, the ease of installation is the most important of the safety features! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me this product to test.

Great Booster!
August 31, 2020
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this Booster Seat. We love the Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat. It was super easy to setup and install in our car. It's easy to use, and the red areas help my daughter know where her seat belt needs to be. I really like that she can do the belt on her own with this. With other seats the buckle would get stuck behind the seat or come out of the belt path easily, but that doesn't happen with this one. We're using it as a high back now, but the back is simple to remove when she's ready for just a seat.

Britax better than Graco!
August 31, 2020
The Britax Skyline Stage 2 Booster seat was sent to me from Stellar product testing panel, though I already had a similar Graco model. The anchors on the Britax are the new alligator style & very easy to install. The back support padding is of much better quality and quantity than our Graco, making my son's car ride that much safer. He enjoyed that it has 2 cups holders vs the one holder on his other seat. He also claims its "cush-ier"/ more comfortable. The seat belt feeder is similar to his other seat, but it's a much tighter loop, and the belt stays in place better. All in all, I feel this model is safer and easier to use, and I will be going forward with more Britax products in the future.

Easy Installation
August 30, 2020
I was given this Booster Seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Since my son has just reached the lower limits for the seat I used it with the back attached. This seat looks sleek (black and red version), is lightweight, and, most importantly, was super easy to install, which I can find intimidating and want to be confident in to be certain my children are safe. The latch clips stretched, making them easy to connect. And, I really liked the color coding to know how to thread the seat belt through and to ensure it was always in the right position.

Great Booster Seat Overall
August 30, 2020
The Britax Skyline 2-Stage booster seat is overall a great seat. The seat comes without the back attached. All it takes is a simple click to make the booster a high back booster. Install was simple and quick, with easy to follow instructions. In our Honda Odyssey we weren't able to get as tight of an install as other seats we own. This seat feels very sturdy and safe. My daughter says it's comfortable and she loves the cup holders. She's able to easily buckle herself in properly thanks to the easy to follow belt path. Overall, this is a great seat and I would recommend it to a friend. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing this seat in exchange for this honest review.

Great seat with a lot of options
August 30, 2020
We were thrilled to get this booster seat Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel to review. We were in need of one and short cash. This review is mostly from my son, who used the seat. He says "I liked the seat a lot, better than my mifold seat in some ways. It is very comfortable and it has cup holders for my water. I like that higher up in the seat next to my baby brother. Also I did not have not gotten car sick since we used this seat and usually I get sick." Mom and dad like the security and simplicity of the seat. We were Not able to use the high back in the car we had (Subaru Forester) as it didn't fit next to where we had the other car seat; we would have had to separate the kids, which they don't like. So we don't have a review of that aspect, but we anticipate using it if we have a car again when the littler one transitions to a booster later this year. My husband completely missed that there are colour coded belt paths, and my kid didn't need them, as we only used the seat portion. He did appreciate the cam lock security of the back segment; it adjusts to lock to extended heights. The entire product is lightweight and easy to use. We wouldn't take it with us when we go on our usual holidays out of the country because the mifold is just far more convenient to throw in a bag and take, but any non-flying trip we would pick this.

Easy Comfortable Booster
August 29, 2020
I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and have been using it with my 6 year old. He is still in the high-back booster mode so that is the only one we've tried so far. It was incredibly easy to install and the color coded belt paths make it super simple to tell where the seat belt should go. My son was stoked about the two cup holders and I was stoked that they can be easily removed to be washed. The cover can also be easily removed and washed, which I'm sure will come in handy sooner rather than later. My son said that the seat felt comfortable and I like that is has features that make it extra safe. Overall it's a basic booster with some great features.

Easy to install booster seat!
August 29, 2020
My 6 year old son loves this new Britain Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat! It was extremely easy to install and easy to use with the color-coded system for the seatbelt. My son was happy that he could easily buckle the seatbelt himself. My favorite thing about this seat is that it easily converts to a backless booster so we can continue to use it for a long time. I also appreciate how well-made it is and that it's nicely padded so it's comfortable for long car trips. The two cup holders are also a nice feature so he has one for water and one for snacks. My son loved feeling like a "big kid" in his new booster seat, and I loved that he was safe and secure! Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this Booster Seat.

Simple and Effective
August 29, 2020
We have the Skyline booster and it was extremely simple to assemble and install. Everything was smooth and easy to configure, test, and use. My 4 year old loved being able to use it on his own, very proud to gain big boy status both buckling up and unbuckling using the handy belt guide in both the shoulder and thigh area. He loved having 2 cup holders the most. I loved the simplicity and the fact the material was very easy to wipe down. This will be much easier to use, transfer and clean.

Nice, Lightweight Booster Seat
August 29, 2020
The Britain's Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat is very lightweight and sturdy. It came with the back separated from the seat, but it was really easy to put the back on. It took a bit more effort to remove the back once it was on- it ended up being a two-person effort to get the right leverage to detach it, so I docked a star for how challenging this was to do. The seat comes with two cup holders, which is very convenient for on-the-go snacking and hydration. I was hoping to have my son try the seat in my car, but he only meets the height requirement and is a few pounds shy of the weight requirement. The manual says the child must meet both the height and weight requirement to use this seat. Despite some of the challenges with converting it back to a backless booster seat, it is a nice seat overall. I am thankful to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this seat to try.

Great booster seat
August 29, 2020
I would first like to say Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this Booster Seat. Very easy to assemble which i love only two pieces to attach to one another. You can adjust the strap and headrest easily with a button behind the headrest. The seat has a lot of padding and cushion for long rides. No complaints from my daughter. which is a win in itself. The color coded beat makes it so easy to secure her in she even learned how to do it herself. The booster is very secure and does not shift once attached. Which makes it very safe in my opinion. This is always a plus for parents when you have a wiggle child. My daughter loves the cup holder to hold her snacks and juice cup. It is easy to clean my daughter spilled a little juice on the seat and it was easily wiped down with a wet wipe no stains. Overall I think this is a great option for parents that want a safe, comfortable easy to install booster seat for their child.

My son loves this booster
August 29, 2020
am a mom of 3 boys. My oldest will be be 5 in less than a month. This booster seat has been great for my son. He loved it from the moment I pulled it out of the box. I was given this Booster Seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. It can be a high back booster and a backless booster. I like that it is easy to convert to a backless booster. I like how it has color coded belt paths. The belt path fit perfect on my son. It didn't fall too high or too low which in the past has been a struggle. It was easier than I thought it would be to use. It is light enough to carry around if switching between cars. It has 2 layers of support and a head support for protection. It is very supportive at his age. It is very padded and comfortable. My son and I love that it has 2 cup holders. I love that it has a lot of padding and the seat belt fits perfect. I would recommend this to my friends and family.

My son loves this booster seat!
August 29, 2020
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this Booster Seat to try out with my son! The booster seat came in two parts (the seat and the back) and was very easy to assemble into the booster seat with a back and put into the car. I like that this booster seat does not take up as much room in the back seat of my SUV as my son's previous booster seat. My son is able to easily buckle his own seatbelt in this booster seat, where he was not able to do this easily with his previous booster. The red color-coded belt paths make it easy for my son and for me to tell whether he is buckled correctly - I love this feature! As an added bonus, my son reports that this booster seat is much more comfortable than his previous booster. I have not yet taken the back off the booster to convert into a backless booster, but there are very clear directions on the car seat itself and in the instruction manual as to how to do this. I would definitely recommend this booster seat due to the safety feature of the color-coded belt path, the small amount of space it takes up in my SUV, its comfort, and the overall look of the booster seat.

Britax Tried and True
August 29, 2020
Our boys are 8 years old and roughly 62 pounds. Both boys say the booster seats are comfortable - they were both excited to sit in big boy seats. We are using the high back mode. The kids are able to put on their seatbelts safely. My husband gives it a thumbs up because it was easy to install - but he has installed multiple seats (infant, convertible, boosters) so he is pretty experienced. We also like the color coded belt guides. The design is sleek and modern - perfect for the boys and matches our interior well. We trust Britax and have owned multiple seats - from infant to booster - all were Britax and all very well-built. Our #1 reason for choosing Britax is safety. For boosters, it is also a plus if it is easy to install and de-install as we travel often and prefer to use our own seats when we travel. It is slightly large for travel but lighter in weight than convertible seats. We like that the seats can convert to backless for later use when the boys are older. Thumbs up for a removable cover for easy cleaning. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this Booster Seat. Since we have twins and need 2 seats, it made choosing a second booster seat easier. Britax all the way!

Little One says 5 stars!
August 29, 2020
Our daughter has loved her new seat. She says she is so comfy and her favorite feature is the two cup holders....one for her snack or crayons and one for her drink. We are currently using the seat with the backrest. It has been great to see that she can get in it and buckle herself easily and correctly on her own. The seat was a very quick and easy assembly. It comes in four pieces total, the back, the base and two cupholders. Our daughter loved being able to put the cupholders in place on her own and installing the seat into our suv was simple with the connectors. We love that this seat will grow with our child and that it is a simple conversion to a booster. We feel she is protected with the side impact features and love that the seat has 10 positions for the headrest since she grows like a weed. Overall, we love the Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat and are grateful we received it from the Stellar Product Testing Panel in return for an honest review.

My favorite booster
August 29, 2020
Thanks to the Stellar product testing panel I received this booster seat in the mail and I love the design! It did not take long to put it together. I love how quickly and easy it was to just snap the booster and the back together! My son loves this seat so far and noticed how easier it was to keep his seatbelt in the correct position due to the spot in the headrest where the seatbelt is placed. My son is usually going from car to car so this booster seat has made it easy to transition and it's light weight

Difficult to convert to backless booster
August 28, 2020
Thank you to the Stellar Product testing panel for providing me with this seat. We have been using this booster seat for about 3 weeks now and my son loves it. It was very simple to put together and installed in the car within minutes. My sons favorite features are the double cup holders because those are a must for us on the road. I personally love the red colored seat belt path as it helps to make sure your little one is safely buckled in and that it has extra protection around the headrest. The one flaw with this seat is that it is very difficult to convert to a backless booster. Overall I would still suggest this booster seat.

Being that we have always preferred Britax seats for our children I was very excited to receive the Britax Skyline 2-Stage booster as a part of the Stellar Product testing panel. The seat was easy to put together and my daughter enjoyed using it as high back booster as well as just a booster. Easy to install with the click system and the colored belt path make for seamless use. My daughter was happy to be upgraded to this from her Frontier which was handed down to her brother. Overall I absolutely recommend this booster for older children.

Feels very flimsy even with all harnesses tight
June 23, 2020
I guess I could have gone with a cheaper brand like Graco for wanting this price range, which I ended up getting :( Thought Britax product is more superior, but the back of this seat feels very flimsy. Possibly because it's removable, but still doesn't feel safe with my kid in it.
Pros
  • Like the fabric and the look
Cons
  • back feels flimsy and seatbelt doesn't pull smoothly

Sleek and safe!
March 4, 2020
My daughter had been complaining about being uncomfortable in her Harness-to-Booster, so I was excited to get a chance to try this booster as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. First and foremost, she loves it -- which means that we don't have to battle her about getting into the carseat anymore. I'd been regretting moving her from the harness to a booster because she's so squirmy in the car, and I always worry that she's not actually securely fastened in. But with the safety features in this seat, I don't worry about that anymore. My favorite feature is the lap belt positioning flap/strap that ensures she's got the lap belt in the right place (in her old seat she would pull her legs in to push her knees up against the lap belt, which is impossible with this one). The shoulder harness glides smoothly as well, which was a (literal) sticking point in our last car seat; she would often get it stuck or jammed. Both of us love the fabric; it's cool and smooth on her skin, and it blends in with the car (unlike the hot pink seat in our other car). My one complaint is that it's pretty wide and sometimes hard for her to buckle in, because the seat is up really close against the buckle. Overall, though, this has been the best booster we've had: comfortable, secure, and attractive!

Great for a transitioning kiddo!
February 14, 2020
My 9 year old is small for his age and still sits in a high backed booster. We had difficulties finding a booster that had wings high enough for his head, provided a comfortable ride, and were easy enough for friends, family, and sitters to use. This Britax seat delivered all of the above in an incredibly easy-to-use package. Out of the box, set up was quick (under 10 minutes without tools) and transitioning between backless and high-backed was super simple. Little brother enjoyed supervising set up so much that he sat in the seat in the house for the remainder of the day. Installation in the car was just as easy. Color coded belt pathways made it so that even 90 year old grandma could correctly install without help - if only all seats were this way! From a comfort standpoint, kiddo appreciated the "squishy" cushioning and was very excited the adjustable wings actually went up high enough to allow him room to grow with it. The fabric is soft and wipes clean easily. It does not appear to hold excessive amounts of heat. Overall, this is a fantastic seat for a transitioning kiddo or someone looking for a booster that can grow with them. Highly recommend. While this product was given to me by the Stellar Product Testing Panel, all thoughts and opinions stated here are my own.

Great booster for growing kids
February 12, 2020
With a 5 1/2 year old and an 8 year old (and all the friends and activities that come with growing kids), this booster checks all the boxes. I was able to easily install it in the third row of our mid-size SUV (with LATCH connectors no less!) when we unexpectedly needed to take a friend home from school the other day. The back is easy to add and remove, meaning I have a seat that works for both of my kiddos in a snap. And the color-coded belt paths made it easy for my youngest to use the seat right out of the box? I would definitely recommend this to others. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending this to me to review!

First Britax seat
February 11, 2020
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this booster. This is our first Britax car seat. The Highpoint booster was easy to put together, easy to install, and is easy to move to other vehicles if needed. We opted to put this in my husband's vehicle which is our secondary vehicle since we already had a seat for our 5yo in our primary vehicle, and needed to up our youngest into a FF transition booster seat in his vehicle. The gray color is perfect for a gender neutral seat, and my son said it was very comfortable on an hour long ride once we got the seat height in the correct position for his shoulders. We will probably take out the front buckle guide eventually since he doesn't really need it. Our biggest complaints are that it is a little hard to get the seat buckled with our son in it and he couldn't get it buckled himself, and it does not recline at all and with the crotch guide he is unable to scoot out to recline and keep his head and entire upper body from falling forward when he fell asleep. The seat does have latch to anchor it but our vehicle is older and doesn't have latch so we have to keep it buckled when he is not in it. I would recommend this seat as an alternative but I find it's price point to be a little high compared to others on the market for the same type of booster seat.

Great and super safe booster!
February 11, 2020
The Highpoint Belt-Positioning Booster with Backless Mode is fantastic! For my son, it is soft and cushiony and easy for him to strap himself in without (much) of my assistance. I particularly liked the safety features! The security guard middle clip felt like it held my son in tighter than just a regular seat belt. The higher back made me my son feel more secure too. The guided belt guides are a nice touch but the best part is that the top belt guide is easy to use on a daily basis. While it may seem trivial, the other car seat we had - you had to feed the seat belt into this space and it easily comes out. With this car seat, it is permanently in this area and doesn't come out unless you force it to. Lastly, the quick-push connector made it super easy to get in the car. OH! AND added bonus, the cup holders are detachable and dishwasher safe. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for letting me test this product.

Easy transition
February 11, 2020
I have been searching for a high back booster to transition my oldest to & haven't had much luck until this one. Unlike some of the others we tried it feels more sturdy & protective, also the color coded belt paths made it much easier for my son to see the defined spots for belt to go. He also says that the seat is very soft & comfortable which will be nice for longer trips since it seems most boosters don't have much cushion. I also really love that it has a little more coverage on sides than most others, I would recommend this to anyone wanting to find a safe & comfortable seat for their newly transitioning kids. Thanks for the Stellar Product Testing Panel for allowing us to try this!

Really really nice booster seat for older kids.
February 11, 2020
I was really impressed with this booster, as it's definitely in a class of its own as far as booster seats go for older kids. There are two cup holders easily within reach, and this is a bonus feature that may not seem like a lot, but helps so much for trinkets, snacks, and drinks as my 7.5 year old cannot reach the in van cup seat holders. She was actually so happy and loved the booster, it is definitely comfortable for her, and it was soooo easy! Easy to install, easy to adjust the top part to ensure her head was correctly aligned, and this gives a better piece of mind as far as safety to have a high back booster. The fact that this is convertible, really all boosters should be this way. AND, the anchoring straps! Omg even basic boosters don't have those, and they SHOULD! The grey color we got, gender neutral, and my daughter didn't care. The simplicity of this booster with the many added features made the so extremely happy. I hate when things are overly complicated because it can be so frustrating an a cause of not correctly installing a child safety restraint, or bothering to go through the hassle of moving it to another vehicle, but with this booster, all of that is completely eliminated. The price point is high, but if you want the best for your child, the price is justified especially with a well known brand. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this booster, this is seriously an amazing booster!

Great transition from car seat to booster
February 11, 2020
My biggest hesitation, besides laziness, in transitioning from a car seat to a booster seat for my 6-year-old was the loss of the 4-point system and the way kids can slide forward in their seats when they no longer have the crotch buckle. This seat was a great transition, as it allows him to use the standard car seat belt, but still has a hook between his legs for the belt strap to run through. I thought that this would be a hassle that he would not want to deal with or have problems dealing with, but he picked it up instantly and says he prefers it over the seat that is in his dad's car, which is a more traditional booster seat. Other than this unique feature, the seat is comfortable and the cupholders remain upright so that drinks do not tip out, which was one of my top requirements in searching for a booster seat, as his old car seat had pretty bad cup holders and the entire backseat of my car was frequently covered in orange juice. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this booster.

Good Little Booster
February 10, 2020
My daughter is 7.5 years old and has been in a booster since she was 5. We have some very old, beat-up boosters that were passed down from her older brother, so she was thrilled to receive a shiny new booster of her own. It arrived without the back on, which is how we're using it, but the back seems like it would be very simple to click on. I love that it has clips to attach to the car--it seems safer to me than her other boosters that just float around in the back seat when no one's in them. We are impressed by the comfy fabric--it's very soft and seems almost like a sports tech fabric-- and it's a nice neutral heather-grey color. The booster is roomy, has nice big cup holders, and comfy arm rests. My only issue with the seat is the extra plastic under the arm rests. I feel like it juts out so far that it keeps the lap belt from being truly snug and hitting her high enough on her lap. Thanks to the Stellar panel for sending us this booster to test out.

Super comfy and easy to install!
February 10, 2020
The Britax Highpoint Booster was very to put together and install. Which was a major bonus for me! We are currently using this product as a high back booster (child is 43lbs). The color coded belt paths are excellent indicators for how the seatbelt is supposed to run through and is easy for my 6 year old to buckle through properly. Although, we have had some issues with the seatbelt getting twisted along the top run through. I love the wide side impact panels, definitely feels like a very safe booster seat as well as very comfortable! I'd definitely recommend to anyone looking for a booster seat! We received this product for review from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

So much easier to use than the others
February 10, 2020
I received my Highpoint Belt-Positioning Booster with Backless Mode from Stellar Product Testing Panel to review, and fell in love with this brand.First lets talk about the fabric they use, it is so ease to clean and breathable, my child does not get sweaty and uncomfortable in it, nor did it pill with the first washing. My child is also on the larger side and did not feel cramped and the second is on the smaller side and did not feel like they were swimming in the booster either, so it fit well with both body types. Now lets talk about the brilliant idea of colored coded belt paths. I love this feature! it takes all the guess work out and i was able to attach, un-attach in second. I was able to go from a full booster seat to just the booster seat in a minute and a half. the safety features are impressive and i feel very comfortable with my child riding in this booster seat. so much so, i threw out the old ones. This is now the brand my house will be using.

My daughter is getting to the age, height and weight were she is able to finally go into a booster seat, however I really hadn't started researching yet. I was beyond excited when I got this product for free from Stellar Product Testing Panel, in return for my non-biased review. In my opinion, the Britax Highpoint Belt-Positioning Booster with Backless Mode is very luxurious in the world of booster seats. It's quite roomy, yet still cozy in the "back" mode. We have only used the back mode as, my daughter could still use that extra protection, and it's a nice "gentle" phase-out from a regular car seat. The back is very easy to remove, when necessary. We both love the 2 cup holders, and I specifically love how they are built-in so that if something hits them, they won't go flying off like the removable one's we have in the car seat. The booster seat is very simple, and user friendly. With the color coded belt paths, I actually trust that my husband or anyone else can handle transferring this and installing it into another vehicle if needed, without my help! I'm looking forward to testing this out on a longer road trip, in hopes that it will help with my daughters carsickness she tends to get. I highly recommend this product when you are ready to make the change from a car seat to a booster seat.

Good Quality and Easy to Use
February 10, 2020
I am very happy with this booster. Right out of the box, I first noticed that the seat looked to be sturdy and of good quality. My son says that the seat is very comfortable and he can easily and independently get himself buckled and unbuckled. At the same time, it feels safe and sturdy. I would recommend to anyone looking for a nice transition into high back booster! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this booster to test!

Wide width
February 10, 2020
I received this car seat as part of the Stellar Parent Panel and it was fine enough, but rather wide. It would not fit in my third row single seat, like if two fo the 3 seats were laying down it would not fit in three single seat. Was pretty comfy from what my 3 yr old said. I did like that I could easily clean out the cup holders. The head rest raises super high. My husband joked that I, at 5'2, could sit in it because it goes so high. Overall, I don't know that I would buy this one due just to the width and it was heavy to transport from car to car, but if that doesn't bother you it seems comfy and very sturdy.

Perfect Car Seat for Transitioning from a 5 Point Harness
February 10, 2020
My 5.5 year old son is on the lower end of the weight/height limit and transitioning him to this high back booster seat from a five point harness was easy for him.? I will note that he does not wiggle out of his seat or play with his buckles, or tries to move when restrained.? Otherwise, I would definitely had kept him in a five point harness.? My son loves sitting in his Britax Highpoint Booster, commenting on how comfortable it is and how awesome it is to have two cup holders (this is great for keeping drinks away from his little sister).? According to my husband, the installation was a breeze compared to our other car seats (easy LATCH connectors) and he won't dread needing to move the car seat to different cars when needed.? I really like the narrow fit, the ease of adjusting the headrest, and the red colored belt paths so you know where the seat belts should be positioned (lap belt underneath both arm rests).? My son can't buckle himself in (but can unbuckle himself) like he can with the 5 point harness, but it is easy enough for me to fit the belt through the belt positioning crotch strap.? Just make sure you have enough slack then tighten.? I can see why caregivers can find it annoying, but I think it is a great safety feature!? Overall, the Britax Highpoint is well made with side impact protection and easy to clean fabric that looks stylish while keeping my child safe in the car.??The 10 year expiration will allow us to use this car seat and transition to backless booster until my son grows out of it, which is really great!? Thank you, Stellar Product Testing Panel for letting us try our first Britax car seat!

Great for older kids!
February 10, 2020
I received a Highpoint Belt-Positioning Booster with Backless Mode as a review for the Stellar Product Testing Panel and I'm in love with it. When I first got it, I wasn't sure if I would use it with the back as my seven year old has been in a booster seat for 2 years. She really wanted to keep it on and she seems to really like having it. She can still look out the window and see everything. She likes that she has a place to rest her head when she is tired. I love how easy it was to install and adjust. The product came with the back off but it was really easy to put the back on the seat. It just snaps into place. The fabric seems really nice and not flashy. We have the black and gray version. I love that it has a clip at the top for her seatbelt, so it's easy for her to buckle herself. My favorite part is that it attaches to your seat which our other booster didn't. I don't feel like her seat will move while we are driving. It stays in place. I would highly recommend this seat to my friends and family.

Excellent booster for tall kids!
February 9, 2020
My four year old is very tall and thin. His old booster seat was fine but I was just delighted at the difference in quality in this Britax booster seat! The seat and back are very plush and comfortable- something even he noticed right away. There is great clearance above his head height wise and the angle of the cushioning makes for a very comfortable head rest. Previous booster seats were too low to even give him any support so this has been great! He is angled very securely in the seat and a unique feature is the clip that the seat belt can feed through for extra security. It's not necessary but an added and helpful feature. He can use this himself but I found that to make sure the belt was secure I needed to be the one feeding it through this clip if we were using it. The cup holders are a convenient feature too. I would highly recommend this booster seat! I received this seat to review as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel - all opinions are my own. You will also see a second review for this product for the backless version which I used for my 7 year old (spoiler- also loved it!).
