Bubble bum inflatable car seat - has anyone used in hot country?

We have bought bubble bums for DCs to use on holiday in Greece. We did have trunki booster backpacks but zips have broken so got bbs as cheaper.

But I've just noticed the instructions for BB says they can withstand 'high temps' but to not expose them to 'extreme' temps for 'prolonged' periods of time.

So far so vague! I don't want them to go pop so we're left with no seats for the kids.

We will be in Crete in August for three weeks. Pretty high temps - and I do not want to be taking car seats in and out every day as well as lugging all beach stuff etc.

Has anyone used these seats on hot hols?! Any problems?

We used them in florida, where temp was about 85-95 degrees.
We put it in the boot during the day and overnight, so it was shaded. We had no problems at all.

That's a good idea, thanks. I hadn't thought of sticking them in boot.

Thank you!
