Backless boosters for very young children are being phased out for a reason – so we think it makes sense to replace it anyway to make sure your child has the best possible protection when you’re travelling by car. There is a a wide range of price points from around £30 for basic models, to well over £100 for booster seats with more features, such as adjustable support for neck and shoulders or several recline positions.Isofix fittings are a must for safer journeys. This is when a car seat is connected directly to a car’s chassis using build-in Isofix connectors for a more secure fit.
Backless boosters for very young children are clearly being phased out for a reason – so we think it makes sense to replace it anyway to make sure your child has the best possible protection when you’re travelling by car.
