Slim high backed booster

Does anyone know a make that do slim high backed boosters that strap in (in stead if just using the seatbelt s) I know Halfords do a slim normal booster (35cm wide) but they don't seem to have a high backed version.
I need to fit 3 in the back.
Thanks for the hell. Smile

I do believe that a britax hi line is, it's also currently on sale at kiddicare for £30, as its an old model, I think

I was googling it so see if it was any good and came across mentions of it bring narrow

Also check the height of the arm rests on the booster. We bought slimline ones but the height of the arm rests make it very difficult to get the seatbelt done up with a stage two next to it. Our childminder has the same car and has kiddie are high back boosters and the arm rests are lower and easier to get seatbelt in.

Britax hiliner is same as new adventure so dimensions will be on britax site

Maxi cosi rodi also visually looked quite slim

The Chicco Neptune is pretty slim.

BertieBotts · 03/03/2013 20:51

46cm wide, though.

Jane MonteCarlo (similar to Kiddy seat) 40cm

BertieBotts really really 40cm??? Have you any thoughts on it with the xtend impact shield? My local retailer doesn't stock the montecarlo or shield he just said mysteriously that he didn't think it was a very good seat.. so I'm a little suspicious as he knows his stuff, carries and promotes erf etc.

we are looking at this exact thing right now and best option I've found is also Jane Montecarlo R1. it's 40cm wide apparently and samuel johnston (iirc) is selling for £99 but delivery may make this same as other retailers.

i think its first high back booster to use isofix (can be used without too)

The are loads of isofix high back boosters but nothing as narrow as this if it's really 40cm it could be extremely useful!
