Is The Chicco GoFit Plus Backless Booster Right For Your Child? Read Our Review To Find Out

Chicco GoFit Plus backless Booster Car Seat

As kids get older and bigger they start yearning to get rid of their booster seat and even begin dreaming of sitting in the front seat of the car. It is important for parents to resist and keep their children buckled safely in a booster seat until they grow big enough to meet the mandated age and height requirements. These mandates are in place to keep children safe, and in most states it requires children to be at least 8 years old or 4’9” in height before riding without a booster in a vehicle.

Older children prefer a backless booster because it offers them the comfort and support of a booster without the bulky backing strapping them in. One of the best backless booster seats is the GoFit Plus Booster Car Seat by Graco. This booster seat keeps kids safe in the car while still being comfortable to sit in. The seat is contoured and supportive with double foam padding to keep kids happy. Parents like that it installs and uninstalls easily with push-on LATCH connectors and a one-handed tightening strap.

Evenflo Symphony Elite

A top convertible car seat for parents to consider is the Chicco NextFit Sport. This car seat has a number of exclusive installation features and safety elements that set it apart from the competition. As a convertible car seat, the Chicco NextFit Sport easily switches from rear-facing to forward-facing so that it can accommodate your child from preschool all the way to middle school.

The NextFit Sport features quality components and construction from Chicco, a leading Italian manufacturer of quality baby products since 1958. The company focuses on building sturdy, premium products that parents can rely on. In addition to the base NextFit Sport model, they also offer a Zip model that makes cleaning the car seat easier, an Air model that uses more breathable fabrics, and a Max model for keeping children rear facing longer.

The most economical model is the NextFit sport and parents agree that it does a great job balancing costs and features. It does not have some of the extended feature set found in the other models, but it provides parents everything they need in a car seat at a reasonable price.

Is the Chicco MyFit LE a good transition to a booster car seat for your big kid? Read our review to find out.

Chicco MyFit LE Harness + Booster Car Seat, Anthem

The Chicco MyFit LE Harness + Booster Car Seat is one of the strongest members to the Chicco convertible car seat family. LE stands for Limited Edition, though as of this review it’s not very limited and easy to find in the store.

It’s sister seat, the MyFit, is a slightly less expensive version. Both are very similar in size and functionality. The LE adds a few nice features including SuperCinch LATCH, comfort waist belt pads, a kid console, and air mesh panels in the fabric. There’s also an upgrade above the LE called the MyFit Zip Air. That one has all the LE features, plus extra zip-off cushions and a breathable mesh backrest. It’s pretty expensive at about $50 more than the MyFit LE and $100 above the MyFit.

The MyFit seats all start life as a harnessed forward-facing seat then convert to a belt-positioning booster. They could serve as a good transitional seat for when your child graduates from a dedicated rear-facing infant car seat. But, for about $50 more than MyFit, are those extra features on the MyFit LE worth it for your big kid?

Chicco Fit2 Infant & Toddler Car Seat Tempo

The Chicco Fit2 infant car seat features a unique 2-stage adjustable base that provides a better fit for growing toddlers who are rear-facing. For those of you who are worried about your toddlers being cramped, this could be the extended rear facing car seat solution you’re looking for.

We’re already big fans of the Chicco brand. The Chicco KeyFit 30 has topped our list of infant seats for quite some time. This model has many of the same features, but the 2-stage base is the main new and innovative feature.

There are a few flaws in this seat that you may want to consider, specifically the heavy weight of the carrier and limited stroller compatibility. The Fit2 does have several other features the original KeyFit doesn’t, which may sway your decision in its favor.
