Okay, these kids embrace seat make me cringe, but the batgirl backless is kinda cute and it's nice to see a super hero for girls. Plus, it looks like it might fit in tight spaces, although it might also only fit tiny bums. I can't find any real info on it. If you know anything, please share! Thank you!

It positions the lapbelt VERY low (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but could possibly be an issue if it is TOO low), and can have some funny results in some cars with how it positions the shoulder belt, but overall, seems like a decent seat.
It is quite lightweight and the cover is nicely padded.
I didn't like the seat in my friend's car (a Range Rover) because it positioned the belt in a weird way, but it fit fine in another car (a Ford Fusion?).

Thank you! Did you get a feeling about the dimensions? Whether it would fit taller kids well or fit in tight spots?
I didn't know a lap belt could be too low.

It is relatively narrow, but didn't seem as narrow as the Harmony LiteRider, and DEFINITELY not as narrow as the Bubble Bum.
I only tried it with a six-year-old, an eight-year-old, a nine-year-old, and a ten-year-old, all of whom are slim-build children. All but the ten-year-old had to use the shoulder-belt adjuster to pull the belt over onto their shoulders.
My understanding is that the lapbelt needs to be at least touching the pelvis, so if it is only across the upper thighs, and is not at all touching the pelvis, that is too low. See the diagram in this document:
