Until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by the car safety seat manufacturer, infants and toddlers should ride in a rear-facing infant car seat. Most convertible seats have age and weight restrictions that allow kids to remain rear-facing for two years or more.He reaches the top weight or height allowed for his seat with a harness. (These limits are listed on the seat and in the instruction manual.) Note: it is important not to use both types of harnesses at the same time! Double harnessing could be very dangerous for your child’s safety, so you need to remove one or the other.

Weight limits: Booster seats are not recommended for children over 120 pounds; however, they can be used until your child is big enough to fit in a seat belt without one (generally around 80 pounds). While the Turbo GO starts at 40lbs and 43″, the RightGuide can’t be used until kids are at least 50lbs – the size of an average 7 year old. That said, the lap belt fit of the RightGuide is better for skinny kids than the Turbo GO in my opinion.
