Overall, this seat has done the job for us. My daughter was still in her infant seat, but completely miserable because she couldn't see anything and made she we were aware of her discomfort.

We picked up this car seat for several reasons.

1. My daughter was only 11 months old (tall for her age and very strong) so we were looking for a car seat that would fit her age and weight. She was borderline weight-wise, but she hasn't had any problems for the two-three months she has now been in the seat and much, much happier. We have a booster seat, so we only need something to get her from her infant seat to about 50 lbs when she can use the booster seat. This one seems to be working great so far.

2. The other aspect we were taking in to consideration is the price. Compared to others that seemed comparable in quality and features, this one was by far much better price-wise.

Installation was pretty simple--I think most car seats these days have been designed to install and this was fits the mold. Once home, I had it installed within minutes.

There are only a couple knocks on this that I think would have made this a little nicer (which is why I gave four-stars instead of five.

1. No arms on this--would have been a little nicer to had, but wasn't a deal killer for us.

2. The side cup that installs on the side gets knocked off very easily which almost makes it worthless to have. Next models should look at making this stay in a little better. It is nice to be able to move, but it just comes off a little too easy. My daughter likes her bottle, so this is kind of important to us.

Overall--I would recommend this product if your looking for something in what you get for the cost--a great deal.

I bought the Cosco High Back Booster for our 3 year old son who is 36" and 35lbs. We wanted a booster that still had a 5 point harness for our second car. I purchased the seat because of the Saftey Reviews it recieved and the price was "right" too. I love it. I was concerned when I purchased it since it was a "booster", thought maybe it wouldn't be as safe as my Britax Car Seat but once it's in and he is strapped in with the 5 point harness I have peace of mind. It does have the LATCH system but doesn't have a nice botton release that my Britax Boulevard has. Its fine because I don't think I will be taking it in and out of the car like I used to with his other one. I love this seat so much a week after I had it I bought one for my Mother-in-Laws car!

So I have a 11 month old son and 2.5 year old son. I own 2 Britax maratons and 1 evenflo booster (not sure the exact style). My 11 month old had grown out of the bucket seat and we needed to get him into a regular carseat. We have 3 vehicles and didn't want to mess with switching them between vehicles. We do like our marathons but do not have the money right now to buy 3 more of those or 3 frontiers. I read so many reviews and could not decide btwn the Cosco High Back Booster, the Graco nautilis, and evenflo triumph (they were all recommended by friends) so we bought one of each. So now the 11 month old has our 2 marathons and the evenflo triumph and the 2.5 year old has our older evenflo booster, the nautilis, and the cosco. In summary, they all are fine. Yes, the boosters and nautilis sit more upright then the marathon but my 2.5 year old does not sleep much in the car anyways ad the frontier (by the looks of it) would have been very upright as well. They are all sturdy and both my sons fit well in all them and they do not mind any of them. Britax is more plush than the booster or nautilis but does not look like the Britax frontier was very plush. The triumph looks very much like the marathon and is just as plush. I don't know why I was freaking out so much reading millions of reviews since they all are about the same and all had good safety ratings. I have not had to clean any of them yet.
