Thanks so much for doing and posting this booster comparison! My DD is not that old or big yet but it's so great to see them all side by side with the same kid in them for comparison. Awesome!

I have a silly question - I'm years and years away from boosters, so I don't know how this works. What happens when she is too tall for the belt guides on a HBB? Do you just use the low back booster at that point until she passes the five-step test to be in a seat belt?
Does the Monarch seem shorter then the Parkway?
I think dd's torso must be a tad taller because in November she outgrew that stupid Turbo. I think your H has longer legs that my H because mine has less room in the Husky, and her legs are much more comfortable.
Out of curiousity, what are you going to do when she outgrows the hbb? DD has already had to go to backless turbos in the extra cars.
I am going to have to get her a parkway to replace it and it makes me nervous since the seat depth is so shallow. I wish the air was taller because I would buy it in an instant.
Does any one have or tried out the Jane Indy booster seat? If so do you know what the seat depth is like on that?
How does your Recaro Start compare to the Vivo?
Do you plan on one of these or are/can you wait until the Frontier or Montery come out. But if I had to choose right now I would choose the one my dd is most comfy in. I would ask her which two are comfy then choose the one you think is safer.

or Monterey, if we get one of those; no LATCH so I'm not sure I want it yet
I think Scattebunny meant her vehicle doesn't have lower LATCH anchors, not that the Monterey won't have LATCH capability.
Thanks for the great booster comparison pictures. It's very helpful for booster shoppers. :thumbsup:
What is the benefit of a HB booster besides side impact protection for an older child, 6+ and 50+ lbs.? If you have side airbags and an older child, is a HB necessary if they still fit in one?
Yes, the Monarch is shorter than the Parkway. I wish I would have remembered that dh had a tape measure in his pocket specifically for seat measurement purposes, but I forgot.
Jenny, thanks for posting the pictures. which of those 6 would you pick, money being no object?
also, have you put H in a MA lately? i'm currious how far over the top slot she is.
I also have high hopes for the Monterey, but I wonder if you could tell me how sturdy the Vivo *feels* in comparison to the Compass B510?
