About - Recaro Pro-Booster

The Recaro Pro-Booster is part of the car seat test program at Consumer Reports. In our lab tests, booster seat models like the Pro-Booster are rated on multiple criteria, such as those listed below.


Crash protection/beltfit highback:
A rating that combines the potential for highback boosters to limit injury and movement in a crash based on simulated frontal crash tests and the potential for the seat to provide a good belt fit in various vehicles using child sized dummies.

Ease of use:
Our judgment of how easy each seat is to use including items such as the clarity of labels and instructions, the ease of achieving an appropriate belt fit and the transition between highback and backless modes where applicable.

Comment:
We have had this for 1 1/2 years. The material is very soft, easy to install, and easy to travel with. Was a bit expensive compared to the other booster seats but well worth it to have that great side protection.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
