 "great seat!" 2010-04-14
By kriste
I purchased this booster seat for my 3 yr old daughter, she loves it.. she seems more comfortable in it than in her old car seat. It was so easy to install and it's easy to take out and put in our other vehicles. I defintely would recommend this car seat to anyone, it is pricey, but it is well worth the money.

I purchased this for my three-year-old son after doing a lot of research. We love this. I love it for the safety fetures, and he loves it for the ease of use and comfort. Very stylish too!

 "Nothing out there beats the quality" 2009-10-19
By Artsy mom
I recently bought this seat in solid black (rather than the Paul Frank version), for $[...]. I must say I am very impressed by this brand new seat (I think it was released in late 2008). Can be used in a variety of configurations: full back mode (33-100lbs, height 38-57in, at least 3yrs old; backless mode: 40-100lbs, height 40-57in, at least 4yrs. Comes in various colors (pink, brown, black, plus the scurvy and colorful stripy one). Conforms to Federal Motor Standards. Not certified for airline use (because airplane seats don't have shoulder belts).



Here is a list of features you will not find in the Graco popular booster seat:



1. To my mind, the biggest and most important (though not necessarily obvious to parents looking to upgrade from a convertible seat) advantage of all Clek seats: LATCH. Meaning that this seat, along with your child on it, is securely planted on the back seat and cannot move around. I remain unconvinced by seats held in place only by the seat belt and the weight of a child. Both the backless Clek booster and this one with the back (Oobr) have LATCH. Oobr in particular features an ingenious extendable LATCH that will pull out to firmly grab the deepest and most inaccessible LATCH bars.

2. Magnesium back frame to better protect the torso during a side impact and vehicle intrusion; enough said!

3. Back seat is not only removable (the lower part of the seat can be used independently, like a regular Clek seat), it also *reclines* up to 12o. Perfect for snoozing!

4. Structural headrest with deep side wings that support the head during naps, and yet do not obscure side views. The headrest connects to the magnesium frame of the back using steel rods to reduce twisting movements and improve head protection in a collision. The headrest is also height-adjustable: it has a button and several adjustment spots and can be pulled up a good 20 cm, meaning it will grow with your child. This is so well designed it looks like a regular car seat headdress in a high end vehicle.

5. Energy-absorbing foam layer to absorb energy of a side impact.

6. Nicely designed and easy to use belt guides facilitating a snug fit of the seat belt on the child's shoulders

7. Nicely padded bottom and back that doesn't cut circulation, especially e.g. under legs.

8. Performance 'Crypton' fabric: stain, moisture and bacteria- resistant. Easy to clean.

9. Plastic parts, including cup holder, are high quality. In fact, 100% North American derived content! No flimsy or suspect materials here.

10. Feels lightweight despite the sturdiness.



Other pros:

1. Ease of use- took me 3 mins to install the seat, another 1 min to buckle my son in.

2. All black version looks great, with its red contrasting parts (not too sure about the Paul Frank designs, seem overstylized to me; who wants to be driving this stripy crazy thing around for the next 5 years?).

3. Comes with a detailed instructions booklet that can be stored in a special place under the seat.



Cons:

-Price: but safety features and excellent design justify the sacrifice.

-Side contour in conjunction with armrest position reported to be somewhat restricting by my son. But maybe that's the point (to keep the child from moving around).



Overall would highly recommend!

 "Solid Seat" 2010-02-23
By Amazon shopper (MN)
Was looking for the next-step seat to replace the Britax Roundabout. Loved the Roundabout & Britax products so I went searching through their lineup but was unhappy with the installation of the Frontier and all the mixed reviews it had received. The Clek Oobr is just what I was looking for - the highest safety rating possible with a simple installation that will likely be the last seat we need (as it converts to a backless booster for children up to 57" and 100 lbs). This seat is definitely the most sturdy booster I have looked at and makes the Graco booster (leftover from my first child) feel like a toy. The reclining feature is a bonus for a booster seat, but we have yet to use this feature for snoozing yet as most of our car trips are under 15 min. You do use the recline to install the seat when using the ridged latch. I had never seen a ridged latch prior to this seat and it was one of the reasons I was unsure about ordering it. For all of you out there like me, I'll do my best to describe it. Instead of the latch hooks hanging on the end of an adjustable belt that loops through the back of the seat (as in the case of the Roundabout), the "ridged latch" hooks are built into the base of the seat. To install this seat, you pull the recline handle and the base of the seat towards you. This action extends the two latch "arms" from the back of the seat, which you then line up with your seat latch eyes (not sure if thats the right term?) and click into place. You can then adjust the seat to your preferred recline. It is very easy and (I feel) even more secure than the latches on the adjustable belt because there is never any "slack" to worry about. We used this seat recently in a vehicle without the latch system for the first time and although it is not as obviously not as stationary as when it is used with latch, I felt it fit much more snug than the other boosters I have experienced. At 35 lbs and 39" my child is at the very bottom of what is recommended for this seat, but the seat does a perfect job of keeping the belts in the correct position even on her small frame. Only had the seat a month, but the fabric appears to be durable so I am optimistic - only time will tell. Amazon had the best price I could find, and although it isn't cheap I feel the price is justified by the quality of the seat and the length of time we will be using it. Definitely would recommend to others. As always, quick shipping from Amazon!

 "Not very comfortable..." 2010-02-14
By L. Azan Kung (Pasadena, CA)
I like the features - headrest, drink holder, but it felt a little stiff and not as cushy as my daughter's Maclaren car seat, given that this is a Booster - for older kids, and the safest one on the market, comfort isn't the priority...but still...I wish it had a little more cushion.

 "clek booster seat" 2010-02-08
By L. Musselman (Louisville, KY United States)
I agree with other reviewers in that this seat feels very sturdy and heavy. I was a little concerned moving my 3 1/2 yr. old out of his car seat, but it had just gotten too small and hard to buckle. This booster seat was the perfect next step, despite it's high price tag. My 7 1/2 yr. old just got out of her booster seat, so I feel like I'll have this for another 4 yrs. This booster feels very safe. Going around turns, sometimes my 5 yr. old will tip over a bit in her booster seat - not a chance of it happening in this one.

 "Fabulous Booster Seat!!" 2009-11-13
By Kate (Geneva, IL)
We've had our new car seats for about two weeks. I love them and so do my twins (they call them their monkey chairs). These are by far the sturdiest booster seats I've ever come across. The latch installation is wonderful and I love being able to recline them for long car rides. These are expensive car seats, but my babies will be in them from three years until at least 8 years because of state law. This is the first booster seat I've come across that I have felt actually warranted its extra expense.

 "The seat is a 5+ BUT shop around for price" 2009-09-13
By Q
We received our Snowberry Oobr a couple days ago, and the seat is VERY impressive.



With the rigid LATCH system it feels as secure and solid as the Britax Regent we previously had our almost 7yo harnessed in; no sliding around as my child tries to get in it, it doesn't budge. It also makes it an utter breeze to install or remove - it is literally a 5 second job. Plus, the rigid LATCH allows this booster to 'recline' which might come in handy for long road trips.



The seat itself is heavier than the Graco TurboBooster we had occasionally used up to this point, but it is SO much more substantial feeling that it almost makes the TurboBooster feel like a 'toy' in comparison. It genuinely feels like more than just a 'booster' to position my child so that the seatbelt can protect her in a crash (though it does that too), but rather that the seat itself will provide protection like her harnessed seats up to this point. Plus, the Oobr doesn't fall apart when carried by the back like the TurboBooster always does.



The headrest adjusts just like, and feels just like, those on my car. Again not flimsy plastic that feels like it might break just being adjusted; this feels like something that could actually stand up to a crash. Plus, the sidewings are deep enough to 'cradle' my daugher's head and look like they would provide protection in a crash, but do not seem to bother her or impede her view, etc.



The fabric is made to withstand spills, etc, though we haven't had any of those yet to test it out. I can say that it feels more like upholstery than just a 'fabric' cover.



Finally there is a booster that I feel comfortable moving my daughter to (who, yes, has been harnessed far longer than many others; even though she is very tall for her age). I'd give the seat well over 5 stars, but I do recommend shopping around for pricing as there seems to be some variance out there.



Edit to add 11/20/09: Like the other reviewer observed, we will likely be using this seat for 3 years (though my daughter is already about to turn 7), even though she will be allowed by *law* to ride w/o a booster in just over a year. Since automotive engineers design seatbelts for those 4'9" and taller, it will likely be at *least* 9-10yo before my tall-for-her-age daugther meets the height for which seatbelts were designed to be used safely. Yes, that means she will be using this booster after we are legally obligated to do so. But, we've always gone by her safety over the minimums established by law (ie. she rear-faced longer than the minimum required by law, and was in a 5pt harness long after she met the legal minimum to move to a booster). Because we will get this long use out of it (and then likely get another 3 years use with her little sister, before the seat expires), we too feel it was worth the expense.



Edit to add 12/23/09: Just a quick update since we just took it on our first long (8+ hr) trip - the slight recline and the deep head wings made it very easy for my 50" tall almost 7yo to nap in the car! She was able to sleep without her head flopping about, and while remaining upright enough for the seatbelt to stay properly positioned. Also worth noting: the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety just named the Clek Oobr as one of their "best picks" in highback boosters for proper positioning (out of 60 seats evaluated).
