A couple of weeks ago, I won the Cybex booster on carseatblog.com. It arrived last week, and I was finally able to try it out on Friday. (Had to wait until we were going somewhere without the baby, since it simply is too large for 3-across.)
DS rode in it for about an hour total, and said it's pretty comfortable, and roomy. DD1, on the other hand, had trouble sitting still because it was so roomy. (She just sat in it while we were in the garage - she's nowhere near ready to booster train.)
Here are some pics:
In my 2003 Focus wagon. I don't think the backrest is quite all the way up. Also, I could make the seat more upright by sliding it back further on the track (but I think this is fine according to the manual).
DS in the seat. He's 9YO, 50" and 65 lbs. He only has a couple of notches left. (And he's always been short-torsoed, though I'm not sure what his torso height is right now.)
DD1 taking her turn. She's 4.5, 39" and 35ish lbs. It fit her pretty well, although I think it was too wide - she was very tempted to lean over so she could use the armrests.
The shoulder belt actually fits her pretty well, but she's out of position here.
