Nice Seat But Has A Few Drawbacks,

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
With our two older children, we used the Graco booster seats with the back on them. While the price on them was right, the fabric was a bit scratchy and the backs came off the seat real easily when moving it around from vehicle to vehicle.
We obtained The First Years Compass Pathway B570 booster seat and plopped it in the van for our 3rd child.
When I first opened the box, I was a bit confused at all the adjustment points on the seat and how they worked. A quick glance in the manual and I was ready to place it in the minivan.
It goes in like any booster seat. However, this model has the LATCH connectors as well which prevents the seat from flying around in the event of a car accident and there is no child in the seat.
The booster seat has two snack cups that fit into the cup holders on each side of the seat. The cups come out with a half turn. Most toddler and covered cups fit into the snack cups, which is quite nice as the snack cups...Read more

The Bees Knees,

This review is from: The First Years Compass Pathway B570 Adjustable Belt Path Booster, Bumble Bee (Baby Product)
We first bought a much cheaper booster, however, it did not fit in our car nor the grandparents' car (which have bucket seats). We were limited to boosters with a narrow base. Although this cost three times more than our original purchase, we got what we paid for! Furthermore, it's worth our child's safety for years to come. This booster is so solid and high quality. It fits so well in all of our cars, especially with the adjustable belt path. We love the latch system, which First Years made so easy to use. You just push a button to open the hook and latch it into the chair. No more squeezing a hook with fingers into a seat! It's great not to worry about strapping in an empty seat after dropping off my child at school. It's a breeze to transfer the booster from one car to another. The folding feature was an extra perk, since we will be checking it in at the airport. The side head rest did it's job holding up our boy's head when he fell asleep. He really enjoys his big boy seat...Read more

We just got this seat for my 4 yo step son who weighs 60 lbs. He LOVES this seat, especially the cupholders. He says it has a "great laying spot" so he can sleep. It is durable and sturdy so not the lighetest booster but not to heavy to move from car to car. Actually I like that it is heavier because it is more durable. All the other boosters we looked at were practically falling apart or so thin it didn't look like enough protection. The head wings are great, soft and comfy, and perfect size. The belt positioners keep the belt situated perfectly on him. So easy to use and understand. I love that it folds since we only have him part time. This company had a bad rep with their older model but they listened to the complaints and really changed it on this one. Very durable and sturdy. It doesn't change to a backless booster but I like it more because of this, no more fighting with the back of the seat. My ss can ride in this up to 100 lbs.
