High backed boosters

Please could I have reccomendations for high back boosters? We need to move my daughter into one but don't know where to start, they all look so similar but prices vary wildly and I don't know why!

Hi, how old is she and what seat is she in now?

I'd say you're looking at paying minimum £50 for one that is of decent quality. After that you can get various features up to about £200 but IMO, most of these aren't really needed.

Good brands for booster seats are:

Joie
Cybex
Maxi Cosi
Britax
Besafe
Recaro

Why not go to a local store and try some out? It's important that it's comfortable for her as this is likely to be the longest lasting seat that you'll use.

She's 3 and 4 months and currently in a Joie spin seat but has reached the weight limit. I'll have a look at those thank you!

She is quite little to go into a booster seat as they only use the adult belt. You'd get a good few years out of a 25kg seat, either rear facing like Axkid move or something forward facing like Joie bold. Just another option anyway in case you don't feel she's ready for a seatbelt yet.
