Look no further, this is the BEST booster seat!!

This booster exceeds any expectations that you could have for a booster. Upon opening it, I saw it was in three easy to connect pieces. I had it completely put together in less than a minutes time. There is an insert on the back for if your child is a little smaller. My son is a big five year old at 49 inches and 55 pounds, so we easily removed that for him to use it. I had him try it with and without the insert, but he preferred without. There is a cushion on the back which my son said is "SOOOO" comfortable! I easily slid the headrest up so that it fit my son perfectly. A really great feature of this booster seat is that it is LATCH compatible. I had previously used boosters that just sat on the seat, so I loved the added bonus of feeling like my son is more secure and that the seat is not going anywhere. This feature was very easy to use. A click on each side to LATCH it in, then two straps that you pull in the front to tighten. Conversely, if you want to loosen the LATCH straps, you just push a button on the front. I liked that it was so conveniently located in the front so that I wasn't pulling behind the seat trying to do it. By far, the very best feature of this booster is the ability to seat two kids at once. We were picking up my eight year old nephew for a playdate, and instead of the normal trying to cram his booster into my car, I simply popped the belt trainer off of my son's seat and used that for the eight year old. He loved the novelty of feeling like he was sitting in a "real" seat, and I loved the convenience and the safety aspect. It still gave him enough a boost while making sure the seatbelt is in the proper place. It was small enough that he was able to sit comfortably between the Highback Booster and a standard carseat. Worth noting, my son said that he still loved the Highback Booster even when I removed the belt trainer that he was previously sitting on. My son will be using this booster for many years to come. Overall, I consider this booster to be a huge win! My son thinks it is the best seat ever, and I feel confident that it is a well made, safe seat. I would highly recommend this seat, and I am so thankful to weeSpring and the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this booster to try!

Really nice booster seat!
on January 20, 2019
Posted by: Arcain90
We just got this booster seat a few weeks ago. It came at the perfect time, my daughter has been ready to use a booster, and has been prefering her brothers booster during school drop offs and pick ups so she can get in and out in a hurry. This seat is really nice looking and feels like a really good quality seat. We love the cupholders and the easy to move height backrest. My only issue is that my daughter can not buckle herself into this seat like she can in our other booster seat. When the seatbelt is in the red shoulder positioner the belt is extremely hard to pull across her. This is my only issue with the seat, i really wish she could buckle in herself. The seat itself was easy to put together and fits really nicely in our van. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Booster

Easy-to-use, lightweight, comfortable booster!
on January 20, 2019

My daughter just turned 4; thus, I tried the Graco TurboBooster Grow Highback Booster in the Highback Booster setting only. My daughter noted the seat was comfortable and it fit her well and she felt secure in the seat (to me). It's incredibly easy to feed the seatbelt through the seat and I really appreciate that the seat is safe AND light so we could move this from car to car. I'll be using this seat as my daughter grows and for my second child when she is big enough.
My only suggestion for improvement would be some way to add a 5-point harness for younger kiddos. Until my daughter outgrows her current convertible carseat, I'll keep her in the convertible seat for extra safety and use this booster when she rides in other cars. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me this booster to try (and love).

WeeSpring Parent Panel Review-Just Missing 5 Point
on January 17, 2019
Posted by: JKNIGHT
I was given this Booster to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. It is well made, easy to assemble, and nice looking. For the age and weight guidelines, I was very surprised and disappointed that it didn’t include a 5 point harness. I personally will not use this product on my oldest because of this. She meets height/weight requirements but her body is still too small and her bones still forming for me to feel she is safe with seat belt only. Had it included a 5point harness, my rating would’ve been 5 stars!

Back seat fixture
on January 26, 2019
Posted by: Lesley M
I was given this Booster to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. We will have this booster for many years to come, thanks to the graduating elements (full seat, down to booster, down to mini-booster). The material is great and the padding is the best I have seen in a kid's seat. The cup holders are very sturdy, which is great for preventing orange juice spills. I am taking away one star because the assembly was not very intuitive and the manual is pretty long compared to other seats. It took me a while to even tackle the project of installing it. Now that it's installed, it's not moving for several years.

A great booster seat... X2!
on January 17, 2019

I was fortunate to receive this booster seat to test and review from The Stellar Product Testing Panel. As a mom of two kids (6 and 3), I was excited to give this booster seat a try. Initially, I thought I’d be using just the booster without the back piece for my extra tall 6 year old, but when I put it together to try it out, I realized that the backrest raised up really high - great! This gave my tall son some extra support, especially around his head. The seat was very simple to put together and by following the easy step directions, I had it ready to go in about 15 minutes. The car install was easy. Two base clips to the car rings on the main seat, that were easily loosened and tightened with a pull of the front straps. The big red seatbelt guide (for left or right side seating) helped my son and I get the seat belt just right. It holds the belt in place, so we don’t have to start fresh every time, which I really liked (helped him be able to buckle up himself) Another really cool feature is the removable booster base with guided seat belt buckles for... a second child! How great is that! This will definitely come in handy for my second kid or a friend that comes along for a ride. Also good to know is that the seat is really slender and gives us extra space in the back between the 2 car seats. It’s also really lightweight if you need to move it from car to car. There is no back tether, but with the across the chest seatbelt, I thought the seat was very secure. Overall, I really like the seat and would definitely recommend to others, especially those with 2 kids!

Safe and comfortable booster was just right!
on January 17, 2019

I recieved this Graco Turbo Booster Grow Highback Booster featuring RightGuide Seat Belt Trainer just at the right time. I was in a car accident in which my vehicle was t-boned. I was searching for new car seats and a booster since they seats were in the vehicle at the time of the accisenf as suggested by the responding officer. When child restraints are involved in an accident, it's best to replace them so I was on that task of finding 2 car seats and a booster as I have 3 toddlers. My oldest toddler loves the Graco booster seat better than his previous one. It has the latch restraints which the previous one did not and I feel is much safer in case of another accident. My son finds it comfortable as well. The removable belt trainer was not useful for us at this time but I know that I will use it in the future when my other toddler son transitions to the booster! My son kept unbuckling the seat belt. I will continue to use the Graco booster and the seat belt trainer with all 3 toddlers! Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Booster through the Stellar Product Testing Panel!

Incredibly Versatile & Well Made Booster Seat
on January 18, 2019
Posted by: bhammamma
We absolutely LOVE our Graco Turbo Booster Grow Highback Booster featuring RightGuide Seat Belt Trainer! We had been utilizing another brand of Booster seat and needed a second for a second vehicle! Fortunately we received this one through the Stellar Product Testing Panel and couldn't be happier. Our daughter, who is nearly 5 years old, fits beautifully in the Booster with Back seat type. I love how it latches, feels really secure in the vehicle and also how the seat belt goes through a seat belt guide which makes it alot easier for my daughter to be able to buckle herself. The chair is really well made and we actually have been able to utilize the seat belt trainer at the same time as the highback booster when my niece joined us in our vehicle- it was REALLY useful and fit great with three seats side by side in the back of our small SUV. I love the versatility of this seat. We have two children and will definitely be utilizing the seat in multiple ways as they grow!
