  "answer": "WAYB Pico: The maker's help center says all Picos have a useful life of 7 years from the date of manufacture or recertification, but the Pico instruction manual says not to use the seat after 6 years from the date of manufacture, so the sources disagree. WAYB Pico is a forward-facing travel car seat described as compact and portable. No checked fact gives an expiry date for the booster seats. Maxi-Cosi RodiSport: the maker's user guide is listed here: The maker support center lists a RodiSport Booster Car Seat user guide for item number BC152.",
