Excellent for tall boy for last 3 years

Reviewer: R. Barton, Katy, Texas USA
We've owned the Compass booster car seat for 3+ years now, and it's still looking great despite daily use and abuse. I researched the safest carseats when changing my eldest son from a 5 point harness up to a booster. This Compass had the best safety rating. The seat fabric is easy to remove and wash. It has adjusted easily as my son has grown - he's now 53" tall (4'5") and 65lbs and its still good for him. We've done a a few long car trips (up to 1000 miles) and he's never complained about his seat. From practical point of view, the side cup holders slide back into the seat if you are tight on space, and the arm rests lift up for ease of entry. It folds in half neatly and is easy to transfer from car to car, and it's travelled safely as checked luggage on flights too. I will be buying another one once my 2nd child moves up from his Britax Marathon.
Bought 2 for twins, and love them!

We purchased two Compass Folding Seats for our 3.5 year old twin boys and we love them! They are incredibly well-made: sturdy, deep padding, tight stitching, etc. Very, very nice. The adjustable shoulder strap holder is great and keeps the belt exactly where it needs to be in a comfortable and safe position. I was nervous about transitioning from a 5pt harness to a booster/belt combination, but once we installed the seats and put the boys in them, I was instantly relieved. The boys are snug, secure, and comfortable.

GREAT product!
Excellent Booster

I did a lot of research on the best booster out there. I tried to like the Britax but the head wings were not for my daughter, she likes to be able to see outside and I know her safety should be more important but on long car trips there must be a happy child in the car. So we tried out the Compass and we could not be happier. It was rated by Consumer Reports as excellent, the same as the Britax. It has the side impact material. It fits her frame well, she is petite and tall. She is 4 so she is old enough for a booster and understands all the rules that go with it. She is very comfortable in it and she loves the bells and whistles. The cupholders and the arm rests. It is also so easy to fold and take into another car or leave with a friend, no more big bulky chair to drag around. I highly recommend it!
Great seat

We have three of these, one for each vehicle, and they have served our daughter well. They are lightweight for easy portability, and soft, as booster seats go.
Great Boosters

I had a Compass booster for my first son and love it. I decided to go with this booster for my second son as well. It is built VERY well and not flimsy like some of the Graco boosters. They love the cup holders and the arm rests.

It also folds for easy tote.
good booster

A Throne For a King
 
Review Date: August 3, 2008
Reviewer: Helemax, Tulsa, Ok.
I got this seat for my grandson's first visit to Grandma's. He was right at the bottom height & weight limit and it worked great. He figured out that he could pop the seat belt and be free and he really felt like a king on his throne in this seat,especially with the two cup holders. We had to try hard to figure out how to get the seat belt to tuck around the side so it was across the chest properly. He traveled well in this seat. It was a great purchase.Compass Adjustable Folding Booster
Excellent carseat! Comfortable and Narrow for my car.
 
Review Date: August 28, 2009
Reviewer: MomInTX,
I have been searching for a narrow booster seat that would fit in my Mercedes C350. The Graco booster was the narrowest I could find and it was still very, very tight. When I pulled out the Compass booster, it was very wide, but the back portion is narrow. It fits perfectly in my car with extra space for buckling! The kids also love them, they are good for napping.
great buy
