Chicco MyFit® Zip Harness + Booster Car Seat, 5-Point Harness Car Seat and High Back Booster Seat, Zip & Wash Fabric, for Children 25-100 lbs. | Nightfall/Black

I spent a long time looking for a booster seat that would accommodate my smaller nearly 6-year-old and this was a perfect fit. Being that my son is short for his age, I was concerned switching him over to a booster since they usually sit lower to the seat. I wanted to feel that he was sitting higher up like he had been in his carseat while also feeling that he was protected on the sides of the seat. This is the most effective, high-quality booster I could find after a good deal of research. It sits him higher up, the sides cocoon him enough to make me feel that he’d be safely protected in an accident, and he is still able to buckle himself in and use the cupholders with no issue.

My 2 year old loves it! He likes the cupholders. I like how the seat easily reclines during naps and long trips and sits upright during regular trips. Easy to install and use!

We got this when my daughter started having car sickness in her rear facing car seat. She was super excited to ride in her "purple". It went in easy and hasn't needed much adjustment since.

I love this car seat! My son also loves it!

Out of all the car seats I’ve tried these are by far my favorite. I also had them with my older kids when they were small up until they no longer needed a car seat. Super easy to install, can recline for sleeping, secure buckles, easy to adjust while growing, also leave plenty space for my older children to walk in front of in my smaller SUV. Only thing I’m worried about it taking the cloth off to wash, my older ones were tough to get back together. 100% worth it either way.

Update: 12/22/24After another failed attempt at booster training, we are returning to using the harness in this seat. While mostly well-behaved in booster-mode, my (now 8yo) grandson remains inconsistent; if he drops a toy, or is very tired and overstimulated, he gets antsy, and sometimes wiggles himself out of the shoulder belt. He is 47 inches tall now, weighs 43.5 lbs, and is on the second-to-last notch on the headrest. I’m waiting another 6-12 mos. to try booster training again.********************************************************************************************************************5/10/2024 (original post): First, let me say that this seat is for older, bigger children. It cannot rear-face, and while the minimum weight is listed at 25lb, for safety reasons, children of that weight should remain in a rear-facing seat until they outgrow it.I ordered this seat for a few reasons. One reason was that I needed a seat with a higher harness limit than most standard seats. The harness on the My Fit goes to 19.5 inches from the seat; 1.5 inches higher than our Graco 4Ever DLX. My grandson is 7.5yo and is ASD level 2; he is wiggly and impulsive, and definitely not ready for booster training yet (we’ve tried). For reference, he is 46 inches tall and weighs 42lb. According to my research, each inch of seat height is roughly equal to one year of growth. He has a couple of inches of growth room in the My Fit harness, and hopefully will be more ready for a booster in the next year or so. I have done much reading over the past month, and I am impressed with the safety ratings of this seat. I also like the thick, comfortable padding.My son and DIL have had the base model of the My Fit in their car for the past two years (the cover does not zip off), and they really like their seat. I chose the My Fit Zip model with the zip-off lining, and I would urge anybody who has a child not fully potty trained, or one that drinks in the car seat, to upgrade to the My Fit Zip. It is worth the extra money to be able to unzip the pads and toss them in the wash without taking the whole seat out of the car to remove the cover.I installed the seat using the vehicle seat belt, because my grandson weighs more than 40lb. I have a 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross. This seat is a bit bulkier than our Graco 4Ever DLX, and weighs a couple of pounds more, but it fit well in my vehicle and it was as easy to install with the seat belt as our Graco was.The width of the seat is listed as 17 or 17.5 inches on several review sites, but the width of the seat where it meets the vehicle seat back is roughly 11.5-12 inches, so it will fit in smaller cars.I am extremely happy with the quality and heavy-duty construction of this seat; it is well worth the money we paid!

The media could not be loaded. I’ve purchased quite a few different car seats and love the Graco rotating one for smaller babies, but this is a solid one for toddlers. The cup holder does not come out easily if installed correctly. Similar profile to other car seats with easy recline latch. The latch for car seat headrest does take up more real estate as it protrudes out so the car’s headrest has to be positioned higher. The chest latch doesn’t clip as easily due to chest pads but functions as designed. The unzip function is great to easily wash if needed and the strap to tighten the seatbelt is nice and long. Don’t need to worry about fishing for it!

After much research I decided to order this car seat. I can’t say enough good things about it. It’s made well and my granddaughters say it’s comfortable. The straps adjust very easily. Highly recommend
