I have a Graco Affix Backless Youth Booster Seat with Latch System.Are Munchkin Auto Seat Protector will block the LATCH Interface&#xFF1F;

I have a Graco carseat and use the Munchkin Seat Protector with it. There is plenty of room to latch the seat. I would guess the booster seat would be the same. The only thing I'd wonder about is if the protector would fall down all the time since your booster seat is backless.

A lot of different ones. I have Graco and it fits just fine. How it works is the infant car seat sits on a strap, then there's a buckle that keeps it secured. I really like this brand... We are actually upgrading to their triple stroller.

SGL just means they included the LATCH system anchors to the Parkway SG model. Since the LATCH anchors are only used to hold the seat in place... regardless of whether or not you use the latch, you would still use the vehicle seat belt to restrain the child. One perceived downside to not using the latch, is that there is nothing holding the seat in place when the child is not in it - meaning there is a chance it could shift/move in the case of an accident. But we haven't found it to be problematic in our every day driving.

Yes! In fact, we didn't use the latch system(car didn't have one) just the seat belt and the car seat did excellent in our rollover accident! Our son is now big enough to use this seat just as a booster and the seat belt works well that way as well. This seat has been a great investment for our family.

One of the nicer models has a latch system. The one we purchased did not. It really doesn't impact our use at all. Britax says the latch system in the nicer one is only there to prevent the seat, if empty, from flying around during an accident. If the kid is in it and buckled, it won't move. Plus the buckle threads through the seat even when it is empty, which might prevent it moving anyway. We've loved it and highly recommend it.

No slipping on my 2004 Ford Expedition. Graco went all over the place, but this doesn't budge at all, seat belt or LATCH.

Laura, you can NEVER install any car seat using both the seat belt and latch system. You must use one or the other. Both are equally safe as long as you get a proper installation. We have had seats that just don't install well in our car using latch, but we can get a great secure install with the seat belt. Install with each and see which one gets the best recline for your kid and make sure there is an inch or less of movement at the belt path.

I have a car seat protector on mine. If you use boosters that you take off constantly you have to be careful that it doesn't have anything sharp that could ripe it. Won't hold scratches like real leather but quality is pretty decent.

I have the Graco 3:1 Nautilus and just the bottom portion, backless booster does not fit. Hope that helps.

It depends, are you installing it rear facing or forward facing? Rear facing: It does sit up pretty high on the base, so depending on where you have it in the back seat and how tall you are, it could block your view looking out the back windows. Other than that you shouldn't have a problem fitting it in there. To install rear facing you have to take the seat cushion off, thread the seat belt through, close the lock-offs, and put the seat cushion back on. It's not necessarily HARD, once you get used to it...but it's not super quick, and it's not the easiest to understand for a grandparent or babysitter/nanny who doesn't use the car seat every day. Forward facing: pretty easy install, especially if you can use the rigid latch but you have to check the latch limits for your vehicle first. Clek has apparently approved the use of the rigid latch AND seat belt at the same time on this seat, so you can call them about that too. The REACT technology doesn't do much good if it's not installed with latch (for forward facing).

Are you talking about a sports car with no latch system? A 70's classic car? Either way, no. You MUST have a latch and be able to tie over the seat back because this chair is a SOFT back. It collapses without your car's seat back to hold it in place...and also for the latch belt to go over and tether safely. That is key!! I think the pictures online give the impression that it sits upright without being installed like a "typical" seat and it does NOT. Hope that helps you!

Doesn't have to be installed with LATCH. It is a bit more difficult to install 3 across with seatbelts but do able. I mean as long as you don't mind scraped up hands :) Diono makes me easier to do this than most because you can access the belt path via a Velcro path on each side of the seat. Any other seat you would need to remove the cover to access the belt path then try putting cover back on after its installed.

Joseph - I've only had my car seat protectors installed for a few months. There is no adhesive that holds the protectors to the seats. There is a flap that tucks between the seat and the back of the seat to hold it in place. When we don't have a car seat in place my mother sits on the protector during short trips. For longer drives, they pull out and re-install in a few minutes. The work great for me.

It is MUCH simpler to latch and unlatch than a normal harness car seat. Also, it is not absolutely necessary to use the latch system (I believe I read this in the instructions), because the latch system is just there to keep the booster in place when a child is not sitting in it with the seat belt on.

Laura, Thank you for asking about one of our products. I can tell you that this Booster Seat does not come with a strap to keep the vehicle belts off the child's neck. However, there are tips in the instructions for that reason. You can also check out our Store and Go Backless Booster on this website. It does come with the positioning strap. Let me know if you have questions about either one of these Booster Seats.

According to the user manual (which can be found on the Safety 1st website), the vehicle does not have to have a latch system in order to be used. In fact it does not need the latch system to be used with the upright back. HOWEVER, IT DOES REQUIRE "anchors" to use the upright back. These are the features that are located behind the headrest or behind the seat or on the floor behind the seat. See page "31" of the user manual (http://safety1st.djgusa.com/product_instructions/en/4358-4856%20Go%20Booster%20Approved.pdf)

We've used Evenflow, Graco, and have a Frontier 85 (without Clicktight), and a Frontier 90. Given the ease of install with the 90 I think it's better than the rest. Better enough that we're replacing our 85 with a 90 due to the fact that we can't hardly get a decent install on the 85 when using the seatbelt (he's too big for LATCH now). Install with the 90 (with seatbelt or LATCH) is just such a breeze. My husband has always been the installer as I've just never been able to get the seats (any of them ) tight enough. With the 90, however, it's not a problem for me. I can't see where anyone would have a problem installing this seat.
