First let me say it was for me a bit difficult to install. Assembly was only a tad confusing but I figured it out, and if I can, anyone can :-) . What was very hard for me was installing it in the front bucket passenger seat of my car. But I do have a back issue which made it worse. I still give this 5 stars though, because the finished product is just perfect for my dog. He is so happy in his comfortable booster seat and can easily see out the windshield and passenger windows now, whereas before he would sit and stretch/crane his neck to try to see past the dashboard. The look on his little face as we drove down the road, while he watched everything was priceless and made the actual price of this worth every penny. I will probably not be taking it out unless absolutely necessary (luckily I rarely have passengers), because it was pretty awkward getting it hooked in. Possibly a few more tries and it will be easier for me, as I was figuring it out as I did it the first time around. I highly recommend.
Oh, I do not quite understand the tether. It seems short to me, even extended, and I did lengthen it as far as I could. So I added another one that came with my dogs car safety harness and it worked perfectly. You can find those on Amazon as well. I did try slamming the brakes on an open road with no other cars (relatively gently, but a good fast stop and of course ready to hold him back if needed), just to see how it works in a controlled situation and the way I have it set up, the seat itself held beautifully and my dog went forward a bit but did not out of the seat. So it appears to be secure. The car seatbelt holds the tether you see in the picture, it's slid through it in the back, so in case you think it's just sewn in, it's not. It's quite securely held by the seatbelt. It has to be threaded through in the back as you are securing the seatbelt through the back side holes (it's hard to explain)...but when the whole process is complete I can see that nothing is going anywhere, including my dog.
Oh, and the pillow is quite soft and comfy. I saw a couple reviews that didn't seem to think so, but it really is soft and somewhat plush, and washable. My dog is very happy, I think yours will be too.
Please note: I think for most people the seat will be relatively easy to install, probably similar to a child's car seat. I am disabled with a bad back and I did it. My bad back I think is the only reason I had some difficulty as I was installing it with a lot of back pain in a pretty awkward position. I love this booster seat and so does my dog. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed. I have a very happy dog, loving all the scenery he could not see before! We get lots of smiles too as people see his happy little face looking out the window at him! Before, I doubt anyone saw more than the top of his little head!
And BTW he weighs 24 lbs and has plenty of room to sit or lay down. He loves his soft comfy pillow too.

Makes a comfortable ride for my corgi
I got this because I felt bad that my short baby couldn’t see out the window in the car. It’s very comfy for him, after he’s had enough sightseeing, he falls right asleep. I paired this car seat with another one, it’s like a box that hooks to the headrests and I like putting it inside of that one for easier setup and removal in the car (also doubles as having a pocket around the seat to put his items like his travel bowl and leash). My corgi is on the bigger side, so my only complaint is that I wish they sold seats that were longer so he could stretch out more, but he doesn’t seem to have any problems being in this one regardless.
