what age group is this seat?

The American Academy of Pediatrics states that children can advance to a booster seat when they are at least 4 years old and 40 pounds. I think the height is 40 inches but I'm not sure. They also say that children should stay in a booster until they are 8 years old and 60 lbs. I love these seats. They're light, easy to clean and my girls say they are comfortable. Hope this helps.

As I understand it, height and weight are more of a factor than age, but my daughter is age 5 and 3'8". It fits her fine, but it will be better when the belt crosses a little bit lower on her chest when she's taller. Hope this helps.

I started using it with my 10 month-old. She could easily sit on it unassisted. Of course I stayed right by her just in case. My friends with 2 and 3 year olds use it too. Wide age range :)

Because children come in such variations of weight and sizes, you really need to look at that rather than age. This seat will accommodate a child up to 65lbs. or a seat shoulder height of 16.5".

Eric - I have a 2 year old daughter that weighs under 25 lbs. she has been in the seat for a while. It has a pad that hold the little ones in. It is a great seat to have for a long time.

answering my own question: i called britax customer service. they confirmed that the child needs to be 2 years old in addition to weighing 25 pounds--the reason is that he needs to develop the necessary bone density to prevent severe injuries in the case of impact while in this seat.

Each child is different but generally I think seat + tray works until 2 - 2 1/2 years.

I did not use this from the beginning with my son's potty training. I do know he is 4 years old now, and he's still potty-training. He was getting too big for the seats in the stores. He does like this seat and will sit on it. I've been told you can use it for younger ages (1 1/2 or 2 year-olds), as well. I hope this helps!

It doesn't really have an age associated with it, I used it for my daughter when she was 8 months old. If the child can sit by themselves and no help, this chair works really well for them.

I would say one or two adults or three kids (depending on size of individuals. It seems pretty sturdy, but I have not put it to the test as far as what the weight limits would be. My two daughters both sit on it at the same time - they are 6 1/2.

I'm 5-11. The seat adjusts as much as a foot. I can use it a pub high table.

Oh, and it doesn't rear face, so this seat would be best for a child over 2 that has outgrown their rear facing seat. The manual says 25-90lbs for a harnessed child and 40-120lbs when used as a booster.

Ages 6-8... I got it for my 10yr old but it was short and smaller footrest than her old one... She only liked it bec of the color.

we used it yesterday at my 2 year old grandson birthday party. a 5 year old little girl sat at it nicely. if I was buying for a 7 year old, I might go with something bigger because they would grow out of it too soon.

The chair is small for a child 1-3 years old. My granddaughter that is 5,who is small for her age can sit in it but not for long

agree with all the other comments. I purchased this seat after my 18 month old out grew her infant seat. Thia has worked well.
