RodiFix vs MFix

melniemi · Nov 19, 2015

Looking for a booster for my 6yo. He's 43", 42#. Any input on either of these?

Thanks!

I WISH I had experience with either one!
Right now, I just look at the RodiFix and think, man, that looks so small next to every other booster at BRU (including giganto Cambria, but really it looks small next to even a Turbo, and I kind of like that).

Thanks Jools! The "small" appeals to me because he's so narrow and I want it to fit on my 8th seat of my 2012 Ody. Think it'd fit?

I don't know if BookMama's van-2005-has the middle seat, there's a video where maybe she tried it, but I don't have time to watch... http://carseatblog.com/26151/maxi-cosi-rodifix-booster-review-european-style-design-american-kids/
I'm thinking...Maybe?

If you can compare the dimensions to a Jane Montecarlo, I can vouch for it installing in our plus one seat in a 2014 Ody. My 6.4 year old can buckle it there but it was a little more difficult because of the floppy buckle stalk and because it was next to a rear facing Peg convertible.

Nope, sorry, I've got a 7-passenger, so no clue on how it would fit in the 8th seat.

I have an Euro RodiFix, I think it's pretty much the same as the USA one? It's kinda fine. The body side wings are on the flimsy side imo, very wide because they move freely side to side, and could be more supportive for sleeping [but not too bad either]. Very easy for DD to buckle by herself, of course, as there are no armrests. It's DD's seat for now because nothing else [highback] really works in that spot in my car.
DD finds it less padded than another HBB we have, but doesn't usually complain.
