Graco TurboBooster Review Summary

Available in tons of colors and patterns, the Graco TurboBooster is “very affordable for the average family.” With safety and value in mind, owners of the TurboBooster car seat enjoy that it grows with the child from a high-back booster seat and “converts easily to a backless booster.” With no five-point harness, the TurboBooster is designed for older children it may “not be so good for a child that is smaller in stature.” Reviewers consider the TurboBooster to be “easy to assemble,“ and “light weight” making it easy to move from car-to-car. Children using the TurboBooster love the “big kid” look, the comfort and the ease of getting in and out of the seat. The Graco booster seat is also equipped with dual cup holders that easily slide in and out but don’t seem to hold regular cups very well. As one of the more “reasonably priced seats” the Graco TurboBooster is a booster seat that will last a family for quite a while. Want to compare the TurboBooster to other booster seats?

The graco booster seat is a great booster seat. I have no complaints about the durability :O). 

It is easy to move from one car to another.  I really wish it would include an extension for neck support for the kids, but overall it held up really well when I was using it to transport kids around....

After receiving a very important comment after posting this review, I felt I must edit this endorsement. I am no longer comfortable having a child, certainly not one of 40 lb weight or a certain age, using this car seat. A five-point harness is imperative.

Please see this video and you will see why....

I have two children 15 months apart and a compact car.  This booster seat is wonderful!  After reading reviews everywhere and checking consumer reports, I found that this seat is rated to be very safe and that people seem to agree that it is more comfortable than other booster seats.

I have had a very good experience with it.  It is lightweight and even my 4 year old can carry it on her own if she is helping me move between cars.  Which leads me to my second point - it is now so easy to take her anywhere.  She wants to ride in grandma's car instead of ours?  No problem - taking out the seat...

this is a excellent booster seat easy for my kids to buckle themselves in. it adjust to your child's height.easy for child to get out of when you are in a hurry. the kids don't try to get out while driving because they are comfortable. and if it needs a washing it comes apart very easy and easy to reassemble when done washing.

This is just your basic booster but it has everything you need.  It's extremely easy to move, has the clip to make the shoulder strap adjustable, and 2 cup holders.  The extra cup holders definately come in handy with a family of 5!  Oh, and it's cheap!  I would recommend this item to anyone.

When my youngest daughter was 4.5 years old, she kept asking when she could get out of her carseat (5 pt harness). She is very petite and could have fit in her regular carseat for another year or so. But she was sad that all of her friends, including her twin, had been in boosters for a while and she was still in a carseat. When she finally reached the height requirement, I purchased this Graco Turbo Booster for her with the Princess cover. Oh my!! That made her day!

We have had several carseats/boosters made by Graco over the years and fully trust the quality and durability of their products....

The Grago Big Kid Booster has been my best friend since my daughter left the huge car seat. It is very light weight and very easy to handle. If at anytime I need to transport her car seat to another car it takes no time at all to switch out. My daugher loves the Graco Big Kid Booster because it makes it easier for her to buckle up her seat belt and it doesn't confine her to just one sitting position. My daughter likes to be independent at age 6 so it is a plus for me. So instead of me buckling her up all I have to do is ask her "IS YOUR SEAT BELT BUCKLED?" I love it! I also love the fact that it...

This product has made driving a whole lot easier. I can drive and feed my child without her having to hand me her drink. There is a cup-holder on each side of the booster seat, and it is portable. I also use it at the table. I am a very busy mom. I have three children. While driving and running errands with three children is not easy, this booster has taken a lot of my shoulders. My daughter loves it also. It makes her feel like she is a big girl considering the fact that she is three. She also knows it belongs to her. It makes her more confident about wearing a seat belt. Before we do anything... review »

I have two small children less than a year apart so they are usually at the same stage for baby furniture..car seats, crib, bed, potty training etc. I love this booster seat. I have an suv and it very compact and not bulky. It is very easy to have in the car if they are not in use I store in the third row seat and it can be installed in any side or position needed. I can actually even get three all together if needed. I love that is has two cup holders that can both be used at the same time and they do not get in the way. Also both my children can easily strap themselves in. I think this is an... review »

My grand daughter was visiting from virginia and i needed something to put her in thatwas safe. i checked different ones out and this seemed to meet all saftey standards .it was also very affordable.Its something that she can take home with her when she leaves..We have bought other graco products and have always been happy with them. Her dad bought the same car seat down there in Virginia ,so now they will have 2 booster seats. Our grand daughter loves the color and it has a place to put her drink.The seat is easy to use,it meets saftey standards and is adjustable. She can use it for a few years...

I love the Graco booster seats, my daughter had a convertible seat that could be used with the 5-point harness and a seatbelt also. As soon as she outgrew the 5-point harness I switched to a booster seat. Mainly because I didn't like how high up the convertible seat put her, the booster puts her much more level with the seat of the car, and it's more convenient for her to reach her toys, drinks, whatever. Graco is a great brand with great reviews, and I'm so glad I got this! I was actually a little concerned because I thought a good carseat had to cost a lot of money but this one was very reasonably... review »

I love this carseat. We have two, one for my car and one for my husbands. My 4 year old is very tall, so this fits her great. She cannot use the 5 pt harness carseats anymore because she is too tall for most of them. The color we got was a pink with flowers and jean accents. It is really cute and she loves it. The price was also very competative for carseats, we paid only about $39. You can also find this just about anywhere.

                        Graco Turbo Booster is a very comfortable booster seat stated my 5 year old who utilizes it. She enjoys the two cup holders one is used for snacks and the other is used for her drink (very convenient). I love the Graco Turbo Buster simple for the fact that it is super easy to install and take out, which really helps when switching to other cars at grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc.) .

                       The hinged back allows pulling the seat forward while slightly reclining the back for a more comfortable ride over long distances...

We bought this Graco Turboboost seat for our 2-1/2 year old grand daughter because she out grew a regular car seat. After a bit of manipulating to get it put together, it seems to be just right for her 34 pounds and 39 inch height and will last until she reaches 100 pounds.  It isn't very heavy for EASY transferring between vehicles. Not very bulky so Lil Miss can climb right up into it in the back seat.  It latches with the cars regular seatbelt.  It does have a cup holder on each side of the seat within easy reach.  Lil Miss thinks the best part of the seat is the fact that it is PINK for...
