Can you give some more background info? Age, weight, height of child who will be using it initially? Vehicle? Other kids/car seats in the vehicle?

Sorry for being so vague. I guess I was just wondering which seat is personally preferable to people.

Seat would go in a 2014 Odyssey, 2010 Mazda CX-9, and/or 2008 Toyota Highlander. DD is 6, 58 lbs, 49" tall. (My 3.5 year old son is 34 lbs, 37", so it will be a long while before he'll be in a booster. He will inherit the Frontier 85 from his sister. I also have a 10 month old in Nuna Pipa, but I can't even imagine what cool booster seats will be available to her in 6 years. So I guess it being a hand-me-down seat isn't too much of a factor right now.)

I may be answering my own question, but since the Clek converts to low back booster, and Kiddy doesn't, maybe that's my answer. But, maybe not--maybe the low back conversion isn't as good, and I would end up buying a separate low back some day anyway.

Regrets for the rambling, but thoughts on two seats from people have used them are appreciated!

I've been on a bit of a booster search as well and have considered similar seats. My son will be 6 in April and is nearing the limits of his harnessed seat in my husband's car.

I have ruled out the Kiddy CruiserFix due to many people having issues with the EPS foam of the side wings cracking and breaking since they do not have much structural support.

The Oober I have ruled out due to the very shallow seat pan.

I will be going for 3 across in hubby's car so I am looking at boostes on the slimmer side. I like the look of the Cybex Solution boosters but the Q-Fix is probably too wide. X-Fix is a contender.

Britax Parkway SGL is high on my list although I would ideally prefer a rigid LATCH booster.

If space weren't an issue, the Recaro Performance booster also looks very nice.
