    Look for harnesses, anti-slip bases, and sturdy construction.

  3. Ease of Cleaning
    Babies are messy! Choose a seat with wipeable surfaces or machine-washable covers.

  4. Portability
    For parents who love to travel or eat out, lightweight seats are ideal.

  5. Compatibility with Furniture
    Booster seats should attach securely to standard chairs.
