  "question": "Which booster seats can be used both with and without a back?",
  "answer": "Evenflo GoTime LX Booster Car Seat: The promotional video repeats the deep design, seven one-hand height positions and two modes, but states a minimum age of 4 years; this disagrees with Evenflo's listing, which specifies 5 years. In Consumer Reports' lab testing the seat scored 60 overall and ranked 13th of 17 highback-to-backless boosters.\n\nEvenflo GoTime No Back Booster Car Seat: Evenflo's fit guide lists this seat in no-back booster mode with child weight 40-120 lb, height 44-57, ages 4-12 years. Lab testing gave it an overall score of 47 and a rank of 8th out of 12 backless boosters tested, with the verdict that it is a good overall performing backless booster.",
