Works good, but head rest is not good

Thanks for your feedback
We bought this booster for our 3 year old daughter based on information in the Toddler Bargains book. I really like how easy it is to install and adjust, but am disappointed in the headrest.
One of the points I was excited about with this seat was that it had side parts for a head rest when my daughter fell asleep in the car. However, in real-life I've found that they don't work. She starts off leaning on them as she doses off, but once she is asleep, her head lolls forward and rests on her chest and/or shoulder. I think they are not big enough or in a bad position. We have to recline her whole seat to almost a 45 degree angle to get her head to stay back and rest on the head rest.
Also, the black "cushion" that goes behind the head is a tiny cushion that just attaches to itself through the strap with Velcro. It is easy to lose, easy to forget to install, and attracts hair. This could've been designed much better.
Overall a good seat - but don't buy it over another booster just for the headrest option.
