Britax Parkway?

Kamy04 · Jun 26, 2016

I was at Target and they have a bunch of Parkway SGL on clearance for $97. I was with DH so I didnt buy it...but I might tomorrow lol.

I haven't had a lot of time to research, but this is a tall booster, right? Does it need headrest support?

DS1 is still harnessed, but a booster would be nice for trips with friends or as a backup. He is just tall with a long torso (46-47", size 7 shirt) so I need something tall.

I figure this is a good deal. They had 5-6 of them so I figure I am safe to wait a day ;-)

I would say go for it. I have a daughter with a long torso. She is about 46-47" tall right now and slender. Our Parkway fits her great.

I didn't know any targets carried the Parkway in store. I've bought a few and I think that's a great deal. In your situation, I'd get it.

It is one of the taller boosters. My DD moved into hers full time at 6yo (~49") and is still in it at 8yo and almost 56". She loves it. The only complaint she's had is that it's hot after the car sits in the summer sun and I wish we could get a lighter color, but that's true of most seats and even some car interiors (so we try to remember to put a towel over it on those really hot days). Otherwise, she just wishes she were shorter because she doesn't want to outgrow it anytime soon.

But she would have already outgrown most boosters. HTH.

P.S. oops, sorry, forgot this. It does NOT need vehicle head support behind it. Instead, they instruct you to remove the vehicle head rest if it interferes with good vehicle fit, so it's definitely okay.

They re-did the carseat aisles (haaaate), so it might be a new one they carry?

Added bonus is it has green, which is ds favorite color.

Dh might murder me. We have so many damn seats. Maybe they will be gone and he will be spared lol. My excuse could be ds2 myride expires in december and then we can give the radian to ds2 and move ds1 into the booster...yeah, thats it ;-)

Even after the redo, the stores around me still have almost no boosters.

That sounds like a good plan to me! I'm convinced! But I'm probably easier to convince then your DH.

I have a question, is the Parkway any narrower than the Recaro HBB?? My DS has a heck of a time buckling in the Recaro in our cars, and I'm looking for something a bit narrower that might be easier to buckle.

Yes, it's narrower. My DD easily buckled herself from the start. HTH.

Great!! I just picked up two on sale at Target. I wish they had colors other than green, but for the price, I can deal with it!
