I currently have a nine year old in an Evenflo Big Kid booster with the back off, because she got too tall for the back. It is an older model than those currently being sold, but does not expire until 9/17. I have an almost 5 1/2 year old who is in a forward-facing car seat. She is over 40 lbs as well, as I think she can handle sitting properly in a booster. I want to go ahead and switch her to a high-back booster due to the cold weather/big coat issues. My initial thought was to put the back on the Evenflo Big Kid and give that to my five year old, and buy a new backless booster for my nine year old (i.e. cheaper way to go). But since it looks like the Evenflo model has changed, I wanted to check and see if there were any safety concerns with the one we have. Also, just in general see what you would recommend in terms of our safest options for both girls. My nine year old still has several inches to go, before she can be without a booster, so it will be awhile. I'm not prepared to dole out a ton of money for a top-end new high-back booster, but we do want to do whatever will be safest. We drive an old car - an 1995 Buick Park Avenue. Thank you for your advice!
