Boosters w/flat backs

What boosters don't push heads forward? I got the ProBooster for Kaleigh and the way the EPS foam is it pushes her head forward and she falls out of position when she sleeps.

I have PWs that are great for sleeping but the belt won't retract in her seating position on the PW.

Is the Vivo belt path similar to the probooster's? The belt does retract just fine on the PB. Does the EPS push the kid's head forward?

Any other recommendations?

please excuse any lack of sense making. Lol. I broke my foot in multiple places on Thursday and on Vicodin for the pain.

I haven't had trouble with any of our boosters. The ones not completely expired or discontinued yet are the vivo and the rodi.

I have watched DD sleep in her Vivo with no head slump. She stayed in position nicely. I haven't noticed the Turbo pushing her head forward, but I know she hasn't slept in that one.

The Oobr is pretty flat, too. The X-Fix actually has an adjustable headrest that the child can tilt back for sleeping.

So which would you recommend for an average sized newly 6 year old?

I know the belt will slide smoothly trough the oobr, but it's so expensive. Idk if I should try the Vivo first for that reason or not.

Definitely try the Vivo first. We love our Vivo for sleeping and even for not sleeping!

Another vote for the Vivo. DD is 6.5 and fits great and has never had any issues sleeping in it. (and it's in our truck which has pretty upright seats).
