Booster for small 7 yo

babymango · Apr 20, 2016

My oldest is 7 and I'm looking for a booster for him. He is 115cm and 20kg.
He sits in the third row of our odyssey.
I would prefer something that can be anchored in, comfortable/safe for a thin boy, and ideally one that will expire in 8-10 years (I have three other younger children). In Canada

I'm guessing then there's no one in the 3rd row middle to have to squeeze beside?

Latchable high back boosters in Canada are:

Clek Oobr (9 years)
Graco Affix (10 years)
Britax Parkway SGL (6 years)
Diono Monterey (6 years)
Recaro Performance Booster (6 years I think...not positive on that one)

Of those I think I like the Monterey the best for slim kids. The Parkway is possible also a good option, as is the Affix.

I highly recommend you test him in some in that seating position so you can see how the belt fits him and how it retracts through the shoulder belt guide.

We've found the parkway to be really good for our skinny kids. The Monterey was too wide until they got a bit older. My 19kg, 112cm, 5 year old is too skinny for the Monterey to fit her well.

I believe the only model years of Odyssey with third row center LATCH/UAS have it offset. That means that boosters can't use LATCH/UAS there, unfortunately. (Newer model years have it in both outside seats instead. It can't be "borrowed" for boosters either. In either case, the attachment straps interfere with the seatbelt buckle.)
