Customer Review: Great functional booster seat
Great seat . We bought one for home and one that we keep in the car for public restaurants. Its made of some sort of foam which is very lightweight. It is wide but comfortable.

Customer Review: Great Product - Straps are a challenge
I have been a long time fan of Britax (have had a Marathon for 4+ years)and I liked the fact that this model has the continued 5 point harness. My daughter loves the Frontier now that she's 4.5 and weighs 38lbs (just outgrew the Marathon straps) and I'm glad that it provides her the extra support she needs in the event of an accident. I cannot see her being able to restrain herself enough just with the seat belt strap. She likes the 2 cup holders and the color (red). Only a couple of cons...The assembly isn't quick and dirty, but I kept reminding myself that it's a one time thing. The straps continue to twist. It seems to be a Britax curse. They've taken steps to make it better, and it is, but the straps do tend to twist. I figure these things are a small price to pay for overall safety. In general, I would still highly recommend this seat and the peace of mind it provides with the extra restraint. I can live with the strap issue for a while longer.
Customer Review: Costly but not completely user friendly
Unable to get shoulder straps lengthened to allow child to strap in when the child is sitting in the booster. They will only lengthen if no weight is in the booster. For the cost, I wasn't expecting any problems.
