We got the dark gray Incognito today for DS2. He's 10, about 40-50th percentile, 68lbs, 54", size 8 pants, size 8-10 shirts. He 5-steps in DH's car (2014 Corolla) because of the short back seat depth and the very recessed female buckle stalks keeping the belt low. He's close to 5-stepping in the 2005 Ody's 3rd row, but not quite yet.

I thought the shape of it was interesting because DH just got a 2014 Corolla that has underseat airbags that blow the front part of the drivers seat up to prevent forward movement, which sort of looks like the shape of the Incognito.

I really do need to order one of these to try in the various vehicles.

Can you do me a favor and take of pic of him using the Incognito (we really need a shorthand for that, INCOG? NCGTO? camo?) without the belt clips in place. Just for curiosity's sake.

Wow - that really does improve the lap belt fit immensely (from no booster to INC)

is that a good abbreviation??

Hey, I like INC!

If it would help anyone I also have a 7yo who is 57lbs, 49", size 7 pants and 6-8 shirts. So not quite there weight-wise but close.

Let me know and I'm sure he'd love to do a photo shoot

Great news! Back to $19 price point at Amazon. I really do like the belt placement of this booster. It provides an excellent lap belt fit without the bunching of many other backless.

That's funny. I love the colors in it and I've been looking for another inexpensive runner that I like just to change things up sometimes and can't find anything I like just as much

Thanks for the pics! My DD has the same stats pretty much and I just got her the Incognito this week. Haven't tried it yet b/c contrary to the whole purpose of it blending in, she wanted to know why she couldn't get it in pink or purple (She's just about to turn 8 though - she may appreciate it more a year from now)

I feel like in DH's Ford Freestyle the shoulder positioning of the seatbelt when using her current Big Kid Sport in lbb mode is getting too close to the edge of her shoulder so hoping the Incognito helps that - and looking at your pics it should

Thanks!!! I ordered one the other day for me to play with first--my ds is too lightweight yet for it, but I want to see if it makes the 3 across in my car a lot easier...and then I'm going to give it to my nephew, b/c he'll really like it. He has an older sister and thinks he doesn't need a booster, but he's only 8 (and he's a good size kiddo at 65 lbs and 4 ft 4 inches).

I'll admit I know nothing about the incognito. Can you use the seat without the clips?

I don't have the manual in front of me so I can't give you the exact wording but someone on another thread said yes, they are required per the instructions for use.
