UPDATED WITH PICS.....OMG! I love it:love: I didn't get the LATCH-able one, apparently it was not in stock in the color I wanted- but really, I don't mind. DD sat in it and we will test out the MP3/speakers in headrest feature asap!

I can not wait to see this! If it were not for the SK Monterey fitting Josef so well a booster IS a seat I would import since I too do not like anything else that is offered, even your beloved Vivo I do not care for :duck:

Is this a new seat?? How have I never heard of it?!

Sorry- I left a lot out- I had a thread about it awhile ago- it's from Germany- my mom shipped it while she was there visiting her family. My cousin shipped it to me through her business so it was affordable:thumbsup:
Even though the seat depth looks shallow- DD is sitting that way because it is on the floor. It measures just shy of 12". The top setting has the shoulder belt guide at 21.5". I will do more comparisons later today- I have some errands to do now. I can compare to Vivo, Parkway, Turbo, Monarch, Compass. ETA: It only goes to 80lbs- but for my DD, that will probably suffice since she will be 12-ish.

Well we are back from our maiden voyage.
Pros:
Comfortable
headwings are nice and deep!
Perfect lap and shoulder belt fit
DD fell asleep in it- no slumping head
Not tippy

Cons:
No cupholder
MP3 thingy is extremely quiet (which is a good thing as far as protecting kids' ears- but it's TOO quiet even with iPod volume up to max:confused:) DD had to press her ear to the headrest to even hear it.
The fabric is microfiber- not plush (I knew that, but still it is like the Champagne Radian fabric)

I am too tired right now to drag all my boosters off the garage shelves, but I promise tomorrow a new thread with comparison pics. I can't promise another chart, though;)
I am laughing about Scatterbunny's observation! That is precisely why I wanted it- Recaro SIP and quality with the size and looks of SK Monterey!

Sorry to disappoint everyone, but my booster comparison is on hold! DH lent DS our camera and will not be back until next week:( I will do the comparison if anyone is still interested when I get it back:thumbsup:
