The Safety 1st Go Hybrid Convertible booster is an upgraded version of the Safeguard Go Anywhere Portable Child Restraint. It is a forward-facing booster seat that fuses the safety of the of the 5-point harness system with the versatility and convenience of a backless booster seat. The two car seats that a child will need before he/she is old or tall enough to travel in a regular car seat. This seat is very light weight and can be broken down to the size of a briefcase in a few minutes, which makes it so much easier to travel with. The height of the harnesses can be adjusted but ideally the harness is designed to be used on children 31”-52” in height, weighing anywhere from 22-60 pounds. When being used as a booster seat, child must be anywhere between 43 to 57 inches tall with weight ranging from 40 to 100 pounds. Safety 1st Go Hybrid Convertible booster can either be installed using LATCH installation or seat belt installation, the LATCH being preferred when the harnesses are being used.
A big selling point and safety feature of Safety 1st Go Hybrid Convertible booster is the fact the five-point harness system can be used for children up to 60 pounds. Most car seats five-point harness has a weight limit of 40 pounds, which realistically speaking most kids are like 3 or 4 by then and might not be mature enough for a booster seat. In other cases, parents may prefer to keep their child in a 5-point harness beyond 40 pounds because it may offer somewhat more protection in side impacts and rollovers than a 3-point lap and shoulder belt. The safety 1st Go Hybrid Convertible booster is able to give those parents piece of mind knowing his/her child is safely secured when driving. As stated earlier the height of the harness is adjustable likewise are the side head wings on the backrest. This seat does not have any head restraint which might be an issue for some parents.
The base thing about Safety 1st Go Hybrid Convertible booster is that it has three-quarters of an inch of padding, for added comfort. There are also a head pillow, an adjustable armrest and an integrated belly pad on the crotch strap, all of which adds to its comfort level. Unlike other car seats which are very bulky and tend to take up a lot of space, the Go hybrid is very compact, leaving enough space in the back of the car for up to 2 other passengers to travel comfortable. The cover on the base, harness and headrest can be removed and is machine washable.
Like all booster seats the Go hybrid has a shoulder belt adjustment strap attached to the base. When being used as a backless booster the strap is used to properly position the car’s seat belt on the center of the shoulder and chest of the child using the booster seat. This is one of the few booster seats that allows you to use the lower LATCH attachments to keep it in place for loading, unloading and when it is unoccupied.
The Safety 1st Go Hybrid Convertible booster can be found at various department stores and online. Its retail price ranges from $180-$200 which is not bad, considering you are literally getting two products for the price of one.
