LO will be 4 in August and I'd like to recycle her current convertible seats to her little sister who will be 1 in November. That means LO needs a booster seat. I'm looking at the options and there are just so many of them! Do you have a booster seat? Do you love it and want to tell me about it? Is it harnessed or just have the belt guides?

My kids are 4 and 6 and both are harnessed in a Britax Frontier - click tight makes for a very easy install!

@MamaG: I think at 4 they should still be in a harness, right?
My 3 year old is using this

@regberadaisy: Honestly, I haven't researched that (yet). I'd prefer a harnessed seat, but there aren't nearly as many options. And some of them are more than we paid for our convertible!

@MamaG: what's your budget? I asked on here before and I have a $80 one saved for the grandparents car when #2 needs to be in there more regularly. She'll get big sisters Cosco Scenera in there.

I don't have a budget, but I have a bit of a hang up about spending $300+. Of course, I also want LO to be safe and comfortable. We usually take 2 long road trips/year (12+ hours).
I probably need to be on the lookout for BRU's trade in event. Our infant seats will be very close to expiration when we finish with them, so I won't sell or donate them. BRU is the best way to get rid of them.

@MamaG: the graco nautilus is $120ish and this one I have saved is $50.
