Who the Connect3 RXT Backless Booster fits
This seat covers one stage. Diono gives it a 8-year life from the date of manufacture, so check the date label before using a hand-me-down.
- Backless booster40 to 120 lb · 38 to 63 in
- Only the base is left, so the vehicle seat has to support the child’s back and head, and the belt guide sits at the hip.

How the Connect3 RXT Backless Booster installs
- Lower anchors
- LATCH/UAS connectors. Check your vehicle manual for which seating positions have anchors, and switch to the seat belt once the child passes the anchor weight limit in the manual.
Every install is a fit between one seat and one vehicle. Read both manuals, and use a free inspection station if anything is unclear.
Will it fit your car?
Diono does not publish a width for this seat, so measure your back seat and compare it with the seat in a store before buying.
- Check your vehicle manual for lower anchor positions and any head-restraint rules.
- Rear-facing seats need front-seat room: try the install behind the driver before you commit.
- Not certified for aircraft use: plan on gate-checking it or using a different seat to fly.

Is the Connect3 RXT Backless Booster recalled?
No campaign in the current NHTSA child-restraint data names this model family, and I have not run a separate review for it. Check your seat’s model number and date of manufacture before use.
Before you buy
- Weigh and measure your child. The limits above are the manufacturer’s, and a child has to meet all of them for the mode they will use.
- Confirm the exact version. Colors, retail exclusives and model numbers change limits more often than you would expect.
- Read the manual before you buy, not after. It is linked above and holds the fit rules, the install methods and the expiry.
- Check recalls by model number and date of manufacture, and register the seat with Diono so you hear about the next one.
