I am starting to get some info regarding boosters as my oldest is 5y3m. I am not looking to booster train yet as he is only 36lbs and he would need to be a min. of 40lbs for the booster.

The two that I am looking at are the Turbo Booster and the Britax Parkway SG. I am liking the secure guard.

Anyone tell me the pro's or con's of these seats. I know a lot of petite kids fit the TB really well, guess I am wondering what everyone thinks of the Britax.

Thank for any and all info.

Ps. DS is currently riding in a Maestro and a Generations, both of which are poor boosters and will be passed to DS#2 when ready.

It sounds like your LO will be 40lbs at about age 6-7.. With smaller and/or younger kids (yours being smaller, obviously not younger) usually people recommend more supportive seats than the Turbo. The Parkway SG is popular, although I personally cannot stand the SG "feature". The Monterey is probably one of the most popular booster recommendations here, especially for younger and smaller kids. I also really like our Oobr, but prefer the Monterey based on comfort, support, and price...the Oobr being extremely expensive. By the time you're in need of a booster, Cybex's will apparently be out in Canada--which I also really like.
