Diono Monterey XT Fix Expandable High back Booster Car Seat with Expandable Height and Width, Group 2/3 (4 to 12 Years Approx, 15-36 kg), Black

Product Information

Hubby put the seat in and discovered the best way to fit it, is to ensure both the isofix links are attached prior to pulling in the straps. Most boosters seem to have very narrow seat pans, making them uncomfortable for littles with larger thighs or bums.

Suitable from 40 - 120 lb Monterey 5iST FixSafe expands in height and width to provide up to 85% more room as they grow up to 63 tall.The original 2-in-1 booster seat with one of a kind, easy-adjust, separate height and width expansion. The seat base is contoured for child comfort and includes a cup holder for road trip drinks and snacks. To adjust the slide panels you do need to access the back of the seat, so we did this outside of the car. If you're just transporting, or indeed storing the seat, the Monterey 2 can be dismanteled into pieces and packed flat for your convenience.

With Monterey 2CXT we have expertly engineered a product that is intuitively simple to use while still providing all of the safety and security needed to protect your child. These lower anchor connectors are attached to the seat differently from those that are used for installation on harnessed car seats. She needed the shoulder belt guide to help with her vehicle seat belt fit, but with it the belt fits her very nicely in this 2007 Honda Odyssey captain’s chair. Manufacturer warranties and service options may not be valid or available outside of the United States. Whilst we are yet to travel a great distance with the car seat in place, I am sure it would be as comfortable on a longer distance as it is in shorter distances.

Review: We were sent the Diono Monterey2 high back booster for Georgie to test out, and the timing couldn’t have been more perfect; Georgie is just at that stage between nearly growing out of her toddler car seat, and just going over the minimum requirements of a booster seat. The places to feed the belt through are bright red and stand out from the seat, so it’s really easy to safely strap in your child. Car seats are boring but as far as this one goes I like it because it is blue, it is comfortable to sit on and the cup holder is really cool. It is easy to feed the vehicle seat belt into the guide, but it’s narrow enough that the seat belt does not twist in the guide or slide out on its own, all while allowing the seat belt to freely retract when unbuckled.
