Not happy with the fact that my 6 year old can't really tie himself in. Is this standard operation for boosters? I have a Landcruiser, maybe it's an issue with the vehicle seatbelt but it is not really working for me. Unfortunately the store where I bought it won't change it.

Awesome booster seat!
This is the first booster seat I have tried, but I really like it. The fabric of the seat cover is high quality and repels stains well. It’s also very easy to remove to wash, unlike other car seats I’ve tried. I was very impressed with how simple installation was, as well as how simple it is to convert to a backless booster and back. I really like that the seat itself attaches to the car seat with the Latch anchors. I find them easy to use and very secure. Britax’s design for them is well-thought-out. They’re easy to access and tighten. My daughter is just at the bottom end of the height and weight range for this booster, but she still is very secure and comfortable in this seat. I received this seat thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel, but my opinions are my own, and I like it so much that when I need a second booster for my younger child I’m planning to purchase a second of this same booster.

Yes & No
I received the Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat as a free product through the Stellar Testing Panel. Yes, this seat had all of the features that we were looking for. It was slimmer, very easy to put together, the bottom tether clamps made it super easy to install, it's easy to use each day, and my 5yo son thought it was the best seat in the world. He said he finally had a big boy seat. But...we did not like that it did not have a top tether of any kind. The top/back part of this seat wiggled and moved around a lot, and it was not secure at all. No, I would not purchase this seat unless they redesigned the top/back of it so that it is more safe.

Easy to use booster that grows with the kiddo
I received the Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat from Stellar Product Testing in exchange for my honest opinion. We have 4 kiddos and so we have gone through a lot of carseats. Im a stickler for safety and I have a couple children with sensory processing disorder as well and so car seats are always a challenge. They can't be too hot, or too uncomfortable. They also can't be too easy to get out of or undo while driving. However, it is challenging as a child gets older and too big for harnessed seats to assure they are still safe in the car in a booster. So, as you can see for us it is more then just a cute and comfy carseat we are looking for. We found the Britax Skyline very easy to install, 2 cupholders is always a benefit so that one can hold a snack or toy and another can hold water. I loved that it has latch attachments still as a lot of boosters don't and they slide around or the kid can move them around in the seat while driving. This seat stayed nice and snug in place. We used it in the full back mode so it was easy to adjust and my daughter liked how it cradled her head but didn't narrow her field of view. The red seat belt path being clearly marked helps her remember easily to put the seatbelt under the armrest as well. She seems to be pretty comfortable in it and because it still has a bit of a feel of a regular convertible carseat she doesn't move in it too much. The material is easy to wipe off for spills and the cup holders remove easily to clean which is a plus for any busy mom. Overall, I think it is a great seat and I like you can detach the back for extended use. My only caveat is that the back is a little finicky to put on but that is a minor issue. And if you have a smaller car the top of the seat is wider so it isn't the most narrow booster out there, so if space is an issue I would measure first because this one is wider then others we have had. But if those 2 issues don't bother you it is a great, safe product, and for our family it worked out to be a good transition from a convertible seat for a kiddo with troubles staying in a seat.

Great seat at a great cost
I received the Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat through the Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for my honest review. I thought the booster seat came well packaged in the box and had clear instructions for assembly. It had two large separate pieces that you joined together as well as two cup holders to attach to either sides of the seat. Installing the seat was extremely simple and the seat itself is very light! This booster seat is a great option for grandma's car since she can easily put it in and take it out when she needs to. My son and I both really liked the material of the seat. The booster seat was breathable, easy to wipe and soft. My son gets hot extremely easily and this booster seat did a great job at allowing airflow compared to others. Britax is a well known brand when it comes to quality and safety and this booster seat continues to showcase both of those traits. Overall the booster seat is a great seat at a great cost and made with all of the great qualities the Britax brand continues to strive to achieve.

Britax does it again!
This booster seat is an A+ in my books; it is stylish while still being functional and allows the user to adapt the seat to their requirements. My child is just entering the booster seat age/size range so I’m a little hesitant to go seat only, but this booster comes with an optional back that can be used to position the seat belt and provide added protection for side impacts (and the back is height adjustable to ensure the seat belt is at the right height). Attaching the back to the booster was super easy but getting it off requires some force (I was afraid I was breaking it off). The seatbelt guides on the back are also bright red and intuitive to thread the belt through. I will likely remove the back once my son grows, but for now this is perfect for my needs. The booster itself is lightweight and super easy to install (well, at least compared to the non-booster seats I’ve previously used). You just click the latches, pull a strap to tighten and that’s it! So far I’ve gotten no complaints that the seat is uncomfortable (maybe that’s just because he’s excited to be sitting in a big boy seat). Also - 2 cup holders! Our previous Britax seat had 2 and it’s so nice to continue having 2 (versus only one or none). This all is par for the course for Britax and I will continue to use Britax with all my children. I highly recommend this booster seat. I received this seat through the Stellar Product testing panel but I would 100% purchase this seat.

Amazing Booster Seat
Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me the Britax Skyline 2-Stage Booster Seat to try. My daughter and I absolutely love it. It is so easy to install, and I love that it still has the LATCH attachment. It was not as easy to convert to a backless booster and I thought it would be. You are supposed to just be able to bend the back of the booster back until it snaps off, but I felt like I was going to break it. I had to apply a lot of pressure to get it to snap off. It is very easy to snap back on though. The booster is so easy for us to use and the color-coded belt paths are such a big help. My daughter loves the attached cups holders. I love that it can truly grow with my child. She is tall enough to use just the backless booster but I am so thankful for the added protection that the back of the booster provides. We have moved this around in our car several times and it is so much easier than a traditional car seat to move. I would highly recommend this to any of my friends or family.

easy to install and lightweight
I received a Britax Skyline 2 stage Booster Seat from Stellar Parent Product Testing Panel. Soon as I opened the box, my daughter was very excited and said it was beautiful. She was thrilled to try out a big girl seat. I tried both modes for the Booster seat with the back and backless. It required a gentle hit to click the back into place. This Britax boosterseat is super lightweight making it very easy to transfer to another car. I liked the color coded belt paths, it made it easy to make sure I installed it correctly. Installation was a breeze. my daughter said she loved the 2 cup holders! all our other seats we have had only have 1, so 2 is great for holding drinks and snacks. The back seems very upright but my daughter said it was comfortable. It does not take up much space in the back of the car so there is plenty of room between our 2 carseats for the kids car activity box. I like that there are 2 layers of side impact protection and plenty of comfortable padding. I enjoy how the headrest has 10 different positions to grow with your child. Overall this is a great user friendly, safety featured, light weight, kid approved booster seat. I would recommend this boosterseat to other parents.
