Convertible car seats are the next step in car seats after infant. A convertible car seat is one step away from a child using a booster car seat. Most models of convertible car seats can handle a child anywhere from 5-65 lbs. An infant version of car seat usually handles 4-22 lbs. It is not always recommended to put a child in a convertible car seat until he is near 20-22 lbs. Some convertible car seats like the Safety 1st Intera can handle a child right from infant to 100 lbs. The main feature of a convertible car seat which is different than other models of car seat is that it features an adjustable harness to accommodate a growing child. Convertible car seats generally feature padding in the side of the car seat for side impact protection and they are generally LATCH equipped. Some of the top models of convertible car seat include the Britax Boulevard, Evenflo Triumph Deluxe and the Recaro Young Sport. Our convertible car seats have a large amount of accessories to go along.

The last stop before the car's seat belt, a booster car seat is the final car seat the child will ever need. A booster car seat is different than its predecessors, the infant and convertible car seat. A booster seat can accept a child generally up to 80 lbs. and in some cases up to 100 lbs. Many states are passing legislation making it mandatory for a child to stay in a car booster seat till 8 years or 100 lbs. The car seat market is growing quickly and the booster seat is one of its fastest growing items. Many models of car booster seat are convertible and offer the option of removing the back of the car seat when the child hits 40 lbs. An example is the Britax Monarch. Since many convertible car seats can accommodate a child to 65 lbs., many parents prefer a booster seat which is backless. A car booster seat which is backless is extremely light and easy to move from car to car. One of the top versions of booster car seat which is backless is the Evenflo Fit Right. Other top booster car seats include the Britax Regent and the Graco TurboBooster.
