Information on Best & Worst Booster Seats of 2009 Provided by IIHS

Until children are grown enough to be restrained properly with seatbelts, they should continue riding in booster seats to increase safety.

Booster seats are meant to hold children securely in place, so that there is a minimum of movement or jostling if an accident were to occur.  This helps prevent injuries and minimize the impact of a crash, however it is imperative that the right quality booster seat be chosen.  Unfortunately, some booster seats are not of good quality, malfunction, and can actually put your child at an increased risk of serious injury should an accident occur.

Recently, the second list of the worst and best booster seats for children has been released by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.  While the institute had 60 to consider, it chose 15 as good and best bets when it comes to protecting your child.  Among the considerations to be included in these lists are the protection the booster seat offers, fit, and proper buckling of seat belts.  It should also be comfortable so that children are not tempted to place the shoulder belt under or behind their arms.

The 15 Best Bets and Good Bets according to the IIHS after testing at its vehicle research center are as follows:

Good Bets

1.  Britax Parkway SG
2.  Combi Kobuk
3.  Evenflo Symphony 65
4.  Graco TurboBooster
5.  Graco TurboBooster
6.  Maxi-Cosi Rodi

The Best Bets, according to IIHS:

1.  Britax Frontier
2.  Clek Oobr
3.  Combi Dakota
4.  Cosco Juvenile Pronto
5.  Eddie Bauer Auto Booster
6.  Evenflo Big Kid Amp
7.  Maxi-Cosi Rodi XR
8.  Recaro Vivo
9.  Recaro Young Sport

The IIHS also compiled a list of booster seats that are not recommended, which includes 11 that are found to provide a poor fit.  The results:

1.  Alpha Omega
2.  Alpha Omega Elite
3.  Alpha Omega Luxe Echelon
4.  Combi Kobuk
5.  Eddie Bauer Deluxe
6.  Eddie Bauer Deluxe 3-in-1
7.  Evenflo Express
8.  Evenflo Sightseer
9.  Harmony Secure Comfort Deluxe
10.  Safety 1st All-in-one
11.  Safety 1st Alpha Omega Elite

It is important to note that the choices in the "not recommended" list are there because they do not provide a good fit, not because they are defective.  They have been placed in this category because of the fact that the seatbelt does not fit as well as the models listed in the Good and Best bets.  If you have one of the models listed in the not recommended list, you are urged not to discard it.  Riding in an ill-fitting booster seat provides more protection than not using one at all.
