Graco TurboBooster SafeSeat
The Graco TurboBooster continues to be a top pick in reviews. This seat performs well in recent crash tests, and parents say their kids find it comfortable. The TurboBooster is secured in place using your vehicle'sseatbelts. This car seat can be used for children 30 to 100 pounds, and has a reclining back, cup holders, adjustable head support and removable seat pad. Side "wings" provide support for napping children. A high-back booster is a good choice if your car has short seat backs, since they give kids more back and head support over a backless booster seat. Higher-end versions of the TurboBooster add options like extra padding and a reversible cover.
The Graco TurboBooster SafeSeat gets excellent coverage from professional reviewers. Consumer Reports conducts rigorous independent testing, while the book "Baby Bargains" considers a variety of factors including reader feedback, features value, and performance history. Owner-written reviews at Amazon.com, ToysRUs.com and Target.com complement expert reviews.
Reviewers say the Graco TurboBooster SafeSeat (Step 3) is a good basic high-back booster seat at a reasonable price. What makes the TurboBooster an especially good value is that it's easily convertible to a top-rated backless booster for kids who weigh between 40 and 100 pounds. Parents also say it's easy to use and kid-friendly. One complaint that comes up in owner-written reviews is that the TurboBooster doesn't have as much cushioning as more expensive boosters like the Britax Monarch (*est. $150). While some parents feel that the relatively thin padding makes it less comfortable for long drives, most say that's not a problem.
