Differences between SGL and Turbo

I know the SGL offers latch, what are the size differences as far as hight and width? Does one puzzle better than another in a 3 across?

I've had both at one point but never at the same time. I haven't had a Turbo in at least 2 years.

I currently have both. Would you like certain pictures or measurements? I can take some tomorrow afternoon if you want.

Pictures would be amazing! Side by side? Showing how tall they go? How wide are they each?

Thank you so so so much!!

The SGL adjusts much taller then the Turbo. Currently I have dd1 in a SGL in dh's truck right next to dd2's Turbo. I have found that the SGL puzzles better, especially with convertibles that sit up on a base like the MyRide and Britax. The SGL does have a 40lb. minimum :)

Another thing to keep in mind if you will be doing a 3-across (or in general) is the geometry of your car. The SG can't go up all the way in my car because the headwings hit where the roof and sides meet. With smaller headwings, the TB does.

Wow, I'm surprised that the Britax is a few inches taller than the others, but the SKJP is only 1/2inch taller than the Graco.

It still makes it a hard decision b/c the SKJP has so much more SIP than the Britax/Graco ones...

The SGL makes a VERY tall booster! I'm suprised at how much taller it goes than a TB. I don't have anyone on the top slots yet (I think Olivia has 1 more click in the TB, and when she outgrows that she'll go backless in my van) and Evelyn is a shrimp and near the bottom of the SGL. I know for sure what booster will be going into daddy's pickup when Olivia outgrows the TB!
