I looked at it, but didn't have enough room in my car for it. It has it pluses (no way for the seat belts to come off). Similar head protection idea as the HANS. Downside in relying upon the chest to maintain position. Questionable fit in a KBS anyway with the multiple angles to the back, but someone with a thicker insert/pad may be fine.
