I was looking (online) at the clek oobr... How would I choose between the oobr and the olli. Differences are just the high-back? Please share with me what you know...

Thanks.

I think the main difference is the highback. What age/size is the child you were wanting it for? For a younger child in a booster a highback is better as it places the shoulder belt better. Backless boosters are good for when a child has outgrown a highback booster (shoulder above belt guides) but still does not pass the 5 step test for not using a booster.

What is the 5 steps to get out of a booster.

I have 3 in boosters:

9 year old in a Clek Oto
7 year old in a Graco Turbo Booster
6 year old in a Graco Turbo Booster

I was thinking of my 6 year old.

and the techs here like to add a 6th step...
Feet flat on the floor. If a child's feet don't reach the floor they are more likely to slouch causing the lap belt to ride up on their stomach.
