Best booster for Ody +1 seat?

melniemi · Jun 14, 2015

Looking for a booster for an Ody center row center seat. Side seats need to slide to rear entrance so narrow is best. I'd like latch so it's not tippy but that's not crucial. Recaro Probooster fits but tips. Performance booster is too wide and seat is too deep for him anyway. Any thought?

This would apply to 2011 or newer.

I loved the Kiddyworld Cruiserfix. Rigid latch. Awesome. I am not sure if seats slide with the sidewings as we didn't need access then. (If it does I might get a boy color one for my son next year).

I heard the Rodifix fits well, too. And side wings are more narrow.

Both seats seem to be a little flimsy in the sidewings. But maybe they hold up OK.

Does anyone know if the Cybex fits in this seat? My van is a 2012.

I recall it being too wide at the base when I tried Cybex.

Just FYI - this info is from my 2011 Ody review: http://carseatblog.com/8090/2011-ho...ids-carseats-review-with-tons-of-pics-videos/

Dedicated Boosters installed on the center multi-function seat

Harmony Dreamtime Highback: YES – fits well and doesn’t hang over the sides

Clek Oobr & Olli: NO – connects easily to lower LATCH anchors and is therefore very stable but is too wide to fit between the seatbelt anchors in this very narrow center position

Graco Turbo Highback: NO – much too wide

Cosco HighRise/Ambassador Backless: NO – much too wide

Obviously, most of the newer boosters aren't listed here since this review was written several years ago but hopefully the info on what didn't work and why can be helpful in trying to help you narrow down some possibilities. You can see pics of the Dreamtime booster in that seating position in the review.

Thank you for that. I might have to put a big kid in that seat when I switch the lil guy to a booster. He rides in that seat in a FR90 now. His bv70 fit fine rear and forward facing and both side seats could slide. Only one seat can slide with his fr90 but that's okay. The Probooster works but it's too tippy.

Maybe a Rodifix? I was hoping the Cybex would work because the price is great on amazon right now.

My Cybex didn't even go for $40 at our garage sale; spare so looks new. I don't think people understood how awesome it is, lol.

The Rodifix might be an awesome choice. It's a very nice looking seat! Sooooo easy to find the buckle due to the design.
