Product Information

While the armrests don’t adjust, they’re cushy for added comfort. Parents and kids alike will love the removable, dishwasher-safe cup holders that fold into themselves to save space. Additionally, the seat is a breeze to clean—simply toss the seat pad in the washing machine (cold water on delicate cycle with mild detergent, then hang dry). Diono Monterey 5iST FixSafe: The machine washable and plush fabric, great durability, and folding capability of the Diono Monterey 5iST FixSafe are its saving graces. Unfortunately, the seat is heavy (18.7 pounds), was somewhat challenging to install, and felt inconvenient to carry around due to an awkwardly placed carrying handle. You will use the Booster mode with a lap-sash seat belt from approx. 4 years of age to approx. 8 years of age or until child’s shoulders reach the upper shoulder height marker. We appreciate the bright red seat belt guides beneath the armrests and under the headrest to help kids know where their seat belt goes. While kids missed having two cup holders (there’s only one), they didn’t struggle to fit or keep drinks in it.

The average 5-year-old is about 3 feet 7 inches tall and about 40 to 41 pounds, under the limits for forward-facing car seats. The average 6-year-old is about 44 to 45 pounds and 3 feet 9 inches tall. That means they should stay in their car seat, which is safer, rather than switching to a booster seat too soon. Most kids can and should continue using the harness until they exceed the manufacturer's height or weight limit. This is especially true if your child tends to be active in the car, because they may wiggle out of a seat belt or push off the shoulder belt. (This is much more difficult when they're strapped into a five-point harness). A child can travel in a taxi or minicabwithout a car seat, but wearing a seat belt, if the driver doesn’t provide the correct child car seat. They must travel in the rear and wear an adult seat belt if they’re over the age of three. Children under three should travel without a seat belt.CDC. 2021. Transportation safety.

A child aged three or older may also use an adult seat belt if making an unexpected but necessary journey over a short distance. However, if you don’t make sure any child passengers have the right car seat, in accordance with the law, and they’re injured or killed in an accident, your car insurance may not cover you. Even if that is temporary car insurance. A booster seat can help to raise a child's body to a height suitable for using the adult seatbelt. Some have ‘horns’ that help the car’s adult seatbelt to sit across your child’s tummy.A booster seat is a vital piece of gear that reduces the risk of nonfatal injuries in vehicle crashes by 45%, particularly among children ages 4 to 8. Children should transition to a booster seat once they max out their forward-facing harness seats' height and weight limits. You can get a younger kid started in a booster seat if you use one that begins with a five-point harness, such as this Britax. It can accommodate children as small as 25 pounds with the harness, then up to 120 pounds as a belt-positioning booster with a noticeably wider spread than most booster car seats. You can expect to use it from preschool through elementary school, and those extra years of use help justify the higher price. Also, don't be in a hurry to ditch your booster (even if your kid complains and begs). Safety regulations are there for a reason. The recommendation is 4'9" tall before moving from a booster to the vehicle seatbelt. Once again, we recommend you keep children in the booster until they reach the limit advised by the manufacturer. Weight-based child seats offer a range of options: 0kg to 10kg or 13kg, 9kg to 18kg,15kg to 25kg, and 22kg to 36.
