This is a great car seat. I know that my daughter is well protected in it. It is well-built and will allow her to use a 5-point harness longer than she would be able to in other car seats. The side-impact head rests are another safety feature that drew me to this product. The seat is very comfortable for her and she loves climbing in and out by herself (a lot easier than her Britax Marathon). She also loved the idea of the cup holders, although even our smallest water bottles are a bit to wide to come in and out easliy, which is frustrating for her.
I must say that even though I read the manual VERY carefully, this seat was really tough to install. Based on the manual's recommendations, if the seat belt receptor was positioned behind the car seat, we should have used the short-belt path installation. When we tried the short belt path method, we could not get the car seat anchored sufficiently, it slid around way too much (even with the top tether in place). Ultimately, we used the long-belt path installation and it is very stable now. That being said, it took a LONG time to get it tightened and secure in the middle of the back seat of our Highlander. This car seat will not be moving from car to car.
We have not used the car seat in Booster mode so I cannot comment on that. Get more detail about Britax Frontier Booster Car Seat Rushmore.
