Boost air for 1 year olds. Irresponsible limits. (pic heavy)

I went to Kmart looking for a clearance EFTA. No luck. But I checked out the boost air. Gosh this is the ugliest car seat ever. The aqua blue that appears out of nowhere when you raise the headrest... I don't get that.
*It does need support to the top of the ears by the vehicle seat.

Anyway, my favorite part. It goes well with the picture of the baby on the ad tags. :rolleyes:

A few more pics. Some the same as we have seen. But I have them, so I might as well post 'em.

:thumbsdown: Great. So now we have to argue with parents who say, "But he weighs 30 pounds and is sixteen months old! The box said..." :(

It's no different from the High Rise or any other booster they make :eek: I haven't checked Evenflos lately, but they used to say 1 and 30. At least it's got a 34" limit (uh... um... couldn't they at least say 38", like Graco?)

Looks cool, thanks for the pics... I really need to haul myself down to Kmart sometime....

I know. After all these years I wish the company would show a little responsibility. Pipe dreams.

Use appropriately (with vehicle support and for a child at LEAST 4 years of age), I don't think it's a bad seat, but I do wish that absurd age restriction was adjusted and that they would design their boosters to function independently of the vehicle seat :(

Aside from the limits, it doesn't look like crap to me. It looks like it would position vehicle belts nicely.

I agree. And the side impact cushions are actually really neat. If I punched the normal EPS foam against a wall, it would probably hurt my hand. But if I punched this, I'd probably be fine.

I bet that when they figured this out, everyone was standing around saying "I can't believe we never thought of this before!"

"ET phone HOME!"

Dorel's been saying 1 year on their boosters for years. I doubt they'll change any time soon.
