Graco turbobooster is an excellent choice

Rated 4 out of 5

We have purchased many, many car seats over the years.  My seven year old is small for his age and was very self conscious about the fact that he still needed to ride in a booster seat.  We had been using a higher weight limit booster with a high back and he was worried about someone saying something about it since the other kids could see it through the car window.  We didn't have any experience with the no back boosters but after a lot of research we decided it might be a safe alternative that would help with his self esteem.  Our first no back booster was an evenflo one that did no have a solid base to it so it made huge indentations on the seat that we did not like. &...

Graco Turbo Booster is so great for a mom

I thought that maybe it really didn't matter what brand I got. I was sure that i should just go out and buy the cheapest one or the one that maybe was on sale. That is how I pick out most of my products. But I was not sure about car seats. I used to just do that with other products but I was not getting the results that I wanted to get. So this time i decided to ask around to the other mom's in the neighborhood and see what they did with their children. I had used other car seats in the infant years and they worked out pretty well but i wanted something that would last through the rest of my children, not wear down and be safe. most importantly i wanted them to be safe. so then i decided on the Graco TurboBooster and was so glad for my choice. my friend had perswaded me to get it and i am so glad she did. it was so amazing and now i love it. my child stays buckled and feels like a grown up. I have washed off the food from it and it still looks great.

A good choice for older kids.

I bought the Graco No Back TurboBooster **for my almost six year old daughter. She was getting too tall for her Graco Nautilus and was also wanting a big girl seat. I read safety reviews and the **Graco No Back TurboBooster seemed to be a good choice for our budget. We don't have any space concerns though because we have a minivan, but it may be a little wide if you're trying to fit three seats across in a car or smaller SUV.

The good points to this seat are that it has a wide base for comfort and stability; it had padded arm rests which I did not see on many models; my daughter is able to buckle herself in-thus saving me from having to lean into the third row of seats in our van.

I recently bought the Graco No Back TurboBooster car seat for my granddaughter who had just turned 4. I needed a car seat for my car and did not want one of the big ones that was one the market. I also wanted one like this because it is so easy to install in my car. The first time I went to pick her up and she seen it she was more excited that the color was pink, her favorite color, than how easy it was for her to get in and out of it. She justed right in and I buckled her up with no problems. I took her shopping with me and it really is much easier to get her in and out. She also doesn't complain about it being unconfortable. Her old car seat she was always saying that it was so small for her. Taking the car seat out and putting it in another car is as simple as picking the car seat up and putting it in the other car. Now we don't have to buy three different car seats to put in all of our cars. My husband and I can just take it with us where ever we go.

Great booster seat!

I like the Graco TurboBooster car seat. I appreciate how it is light weight, which makes it easy to switch from car to car. My very girly daughter, loves the princess print and pink color. I think it could use a bit more padding on the bottom and also in the arms. We went on a 10 hour car drive and my daughter felt after about an hour it was a bit uncomfortable, where my son who was not in a car seat was still perfectly comfortable. We never use the cup holders, because I'm worried that drinks would spill unless it's a sippy cup (which we no longer use). So I'm not sure if the cup holders are really needed, but other people might use them. I got our Graco TurboBooster car seat from walmart on a sale, I did notice they seem to go on sale a bit. I did think it was a fair price even not on sale. The cover is easy to clean if your child spills something on it. Overall I would recommend the Graco TurboBooster!

Once my daughter was ready for a booster seat I looked every where for the perfect booster seat as we new mommies normally do. I looked at expensive ones that had high quality reviews and ones that celebrities were using. Then one day I went into a discount shop and decided to look at their baby section. Thats when I came across the Graco 8E04LLM Booster Car Seat and it was priced very reasonably! I looked at it, read about it and put it in my shopping cart. I figured I'd make my mind up at the checkout. As I was shopping the store I kept looking at it in my baggie, I knew Graco in my opinion was one of the top baby brands. Then my daughter spotted it and started jumping up and down, yelling...

Graco No back Turbobooster is just for small trips

I bought Graco No back turbo booster seat is for $20, great price, seems simple enough. Great cup holders, easy to clean. Not much to a booster, so I thought. The negative point is... well, you get what you pay for. Any trip of 1 hour or more and my kids complained on this seat as its not very padded. It seems padded to the touch, but not when you sit on it for hours. We would not have made it on a long road trip. We now have a Olli booster seat by CLEK and its phenomenal, even latches in so it stays still. A world of difference in comfort and craftmanship. I know... its only a booster, but, it's also my child and well... They're worth it.  for Short easy trips,Graco backless turbo booster  is fine. But if you want to go withLong road trips, it is not satisfactory.

what i like about this,I love the double cup holders. It doesn't matter which side of the car he is on he still has one accessible and on more thing it's easy for him to buckle himself in which he likes.

i love the graco booster seat!

i purchased the graco no back turboboostert seats a couple of years ago.  i purchased two of them.  my children are two years apart but only two pounds and 2 inches apart.  we decided it was time to move them out of the carseat.  one, the graco no back turboboostert was a decent price - around $24.  second, i need a seat with cupholders and graco had one with cupholders that could fold in or out.  that is a plus.  my kids loved the fact that there was no back on the seats because it made them feel "bigger".  they were also pretty light weight.  the kids could change them from car to car themselves.  they liked the armrests that came with the seat.  my children also loved the fabric they had on their seats.  they were able to pick the "boy" and "girl" seat they wanted.  they enjoy being able to buckle up with the "real" seatbelts too.  i would highly recomment the graco no back turboboostert seat to anyone one with children who are ready to get out of carseats!

nice booster seat

Ok, like everything else that i buy, i purchased this seat on clearance. Paid only half the price so i am happy about it. I use this car seat only when i need more space in the car, like when grandma is visiting and we need to fit her in the back with kids :) But for everyday i would not use it yet, since my littleo ne fits in his older seat.

I like this booster seat because it helps to keep my kid safe in the car. I like that you can clean the cover really easy, i like the cup holders. But i think it could have more cushioning since it looks that after longer drive my kid gets a little tired sitting in this seat. But overall it's a good booster seat.

My four year old son was so excited to get his new booster seat when he saw the airplanes all over the cover.  It's hard to find a cute print for little boys but this one does the job.  There seems to be plenty of cute patterns out there for girls but the boys are often left with plain old solid colors.  He didn't fight me at all to get in his new carseat and thought it was great that he had TWO cupholders to stash all his little cars and treasures in.  The back easily comes off when you just need the bottom booster and it isn't super wide like other boosters.  This is a big plus for me because I'm trying to fit 3 kids in the backseat of my car and two of them are in carseats.  The shoulder strap slides easily into position and doesn't stop the seatbelt from rolling back into the car when he unbuckles himslef to get out of the car.  The price for this booster was great as well and the color looks great even after I washed it.

Toughness and Value: Graco Backless TurboBooster Booster Seat

Rated 5 out of 5

The Graco Backless TurboBooster Booster Seat has been a great value for our family.  My son had one of these from aproximately age 3 up until he turned six when we lived in Colorado (at which point children in Colorado don't need booster seats anymore, so we donated it).  Later that year we moved to Kansas which requires a booster until 8 years old.  We immediately knew which company to choose and found this seat as a great value.  It also has the cupholders which are super convenient for my son when we take road trips or need to stop and get a quick kids meal in the car on the way to activities.  The seat itself is super durable (having been dropped when switching from car to car many tiems) and the seat padding is removable if it needs to be washed.  This seat is just the right size for my son and the arm rests (that can be put down or up) make the ride a little more comforatble for him.  Love these seats!

This car booster has lasted through 2 kids, I love it!

I have a Graco Booster for my 8 year old, She has had it for 2 years now. Before her it was used for 2 years. It's not too bulky, black and has a nice pad on it for comfort. It has stayed in great condition with my busy kids! Its so easy to remove from the car and place back in when needed. I would recommend any Graco Booster for your child. They are great and dependable let me tell you why. Last year we had a really bad accident involving a small pickup truck and our SUV. The booster seat remained seated snugly in place the whole time and my child was not hurt. It is dependable and the cost is appropriately priced! I love you Graco and Thank you.

A booster gives more room and no more 5 pt. harness system!

Once my oldest daughter turned 5, we bought her a booster. Not the one with a high back to transistion to later. JUST the bottom part. We love it and I can not wait to get my youngest in one in May when she turns 4!! I know the 5 point harness system is safe, but it is SUCH a pain in the butt, especially when your youngest weighs just as much as your oldest. You have to wait til they turn 4 by law. Only 2 more months lol thank the Lord! I love this seat because it has a pull out cup holder and it has 2 arm rests. It takes up a lot less room and it is easier to carry to and from other cars. You use the regular seatbelt, so it also makes the kids feel older. :-)  We bought a black/gray one, but I think they have other colors available. I know not too many, though. They want to make more money, so they left the other colors and designs for the high back booster seats. LOL I recommend this seat to anyone with kids 4 and over!

This booster seat is a great value for a smaller car seat.

Hello, I am a mother of 2. I have a 2 year old boy and a 4 year old girl. My husband and i purchased this car seat in 2008. We purchased it at Walmart and we payed 15.00 for it. My husband and i decided to purchase this car seat because i work every other weekend, and my husband i sat home on the weekends, so we figured it would be alot easier just to have a booster for my daughter to use in his truck while i was gone. The car seat is just the perfect size where it does not take up hardly any room on his seat. My daughter loves it because it makes her feel like a big girl. The seat comes with a strap that hooks on to the vehicles seat belt so the seat belt does not cut into their necks if th...

My son is 4 and I prefer the highback boosters but we bought this when we traveled to see the grandparents. I didn't want to carry the highback booster on the plane. it worked out really well - it is very small and easy to use. It gave my son the added height so he could see out the car windows. I didn't get the warm and fuzzy feeling towards safety that I have w/ my convertibles but I think that's just because he still so young. I'm sure as he gets older, the backless boosters will be wonderful. It gave him so much more extra room to move around in (compared to the restrictive convertibles). A great bargain at only $20. There wasn't as much padding as I would have liked on the seat but we only use it once a year while on vacation.
