Was looking for a booster seat and the Infa Secure brand make Australia's safest booster seat with quite a few models available, this one came up in a google search at Big W. $40 off is a great bargain, only until the 24th December.
It's design negates the need for a separate anti-submarine clip as on the Hi-Liner.
Try telling that to a 4yo who is slouching to one side on a long trip etc.
…but yes the Hi-Liner is the other top rated one I should add :).
quote from the Infa Secure website re the anti-submarining feature - This is achieved not with add-on clips used in some boosters, but by the armrest's unique design, which keeps the lap belt firm and secure across the child's lap. The C.R.E.P. results clearly show that the Vario's Anti-Submarining design outperforms the vast majority of other booster seats, including those with add-on belt clips.
out of stock?
It's in stock in various stores. Must not be able to order it online though (which I didn't want to anyway).
I picked this up last week at Jesmond, NSW. In the current catalogue it's be sold for $108 with a bonus Secure Fit Retaining Device - http://catalogues.bigw.com.au/portal/offerdetails/infa_secur…
Bought (and voted!) - pretty good deal if you're in the market.
It doesn't have an anti-submarine clip.
We have a Hi-Liner SG (Safe-N-Sound), which is also the highest rating (4 starts) like this one, but it also does come with the anti-submarine clip. Its a bit more expensive though.
