The price points were so insanely different I figured there was something I was missing. I prefer to keep LO RF so we will definitely get a convertible. Plus they look more comfy anyway </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-difference-between-a-booster-amp-a-convertible-car-seat#post-1814822 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 19:07:29 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1814822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, a convertable means it can convert between rf and ff. boosters can only ff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-difference-between-a-booster-amp-a-convertible-car-seat#post-1814813 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 19:01:10 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 1814813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A convertible seat can typically accommodate newborns and can rear-face for smaller children. A harness-to-booster seat lacks the ability to RF and is for older children who may not need to RF anymore but aren't big enough to go straight to a booster yet. Some seats do all 3, like our radian. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-difference-between-a-booster-amp-a-convertible-car-seat#post-1814766 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 18:40:30 +0000 Mrs. Polish 1814766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: Our convertible started at 5lb. That's the only thing I can think of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-difference-between-a-booster-amp-a-convertible-car-seat#post-1814731 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 18:20:53 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1814731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What's the difference between a booster seat with a head rest that has a harness exactly the same as LO'S infant seat that is labeled for babies 22 to 80 pounds. &amp; a convertible car seat? Is the convertible safer? Can the booster RF? </p>
