Question Monterey vs Recaro Probooster vs Kidfit

I want my kids to have matching boosters but one kid is tall and one is tiny. Which one should I get them that would fit both of them well? My taller kid, 54in, isn't broad or have a particularly long torso and she prefers a back. Before our accident, she was in an Affix but had just about outgrown it.

If she's outgrown the Affix, she wouldn't have that much more room in a KidFit. I love our Performance Booster, and it seems to fit a wide range of kids pretty well. I've never had a Monterey.

I ordered one Performance booster to see if they like it and how it works in the Ody's 3rd row. Hope it works!

I want to say that I've read it does, but I don't have an Ody, so I don't know. I have one in my Expy. LOVE it, but it can be hard to buckle because it is so wide. Gage knows to scoot it over a little before getting in. I don't think the Monterrey is currently available, is it?

I saw it on Amazon. I've heard that the Monterey isn't great for small kids but that the Performance fits all kids well so I'm crossing my fingers that's the one for us.

Just an update: I bought the Recaro and while it is super nice and plush, it's insanely wide and not great for buckling since the stalk sort of gets stuck under the seat. So that's going back. I'm going to buy a Kidfit tomorrow and try that out. Y kids aren't thrilled with the color choices but it is what it is. I might try and swing by BBB and see what they have.

My 9 yo (4'6") decided to just use the Harmony Cruz we have and I'll get her the Cardiff for longer rides. I still don't know what to get the 7yo. We looked at the Amp at Target yesterday and he didn't like it. Not enough padding by the head.
