Maxi-Cosi RodiSport Booster Seat Review

Designed to last built to last, built to last, RodiSport transforms from a high-back booster into a backless booster so your child can safely ride until they are ready to sit directly in the car seat. The 7-position headrest can be adjusted using one hand and can be adjusted to keep up with the growth spurts.

Safety

A good booster seat can make your child's ride more secure. In IIHS booster seat testing engineers employ a child-sized dummy to measure how well three-point lap and shoulder belts fit into different vehicle seats. They also assess the ease with which it is to use the seat, and whether it's easy to get an appropriate belt fit and switch between high-back booster mode and backless booster mode.

The R44 standard will be phased out on September 1, 2024.
