Graduate to the backless version
Great product. The only thing missing is a strap to keep it secured to the seat.
Gets the job done
Great booster for my 6 year old, love the little cup holders also.
Great booster seat!
The Turbobooster booster seat works great for my grandson. I only wish the armrest covers would stay on.
Good booster
We bought two for our 5y/o & 7y/o. They look & work great. My only complaint is the arm rest covers come off too easily, they are constantly falling off.
great little booster
Love this booster, retractable cup holders, easy to move around. Four stars because the arm padding covers do not stay on well and are hard to keep in place.
Great boosters for our twins!
We got our boosters on sale and since we have twins we got a two for one special so we're super happy with these.
Graco Turbobooster Vehicle Seat
Easy to install and use for my 8 year old grandson.
Great buy
Perfect for 6 year old grandson's visit, so happy we bought it
Nice booster for 7 year old
Nice booster seat. Well made and the pattern is cute. Always quality products from Graco. Happy with this purchase.
Buy as many as you need!
These are so versatile and easy to use. The extra squishy seat is a plus with the kiddos and TWO cup holders for a drink or snack. We have purchased for all of our vehicles and at this price point, I don't feel like I have to share it or accidentally forget it in another car. I can buy what I need for all the vehicles without worry.
There nothing to review this best brand I can buy
My son love it and he really happy with his buster seat
Awesome
My son picked it out! He loves it. It’s easy to install and use. It’s also got cup holders that can hide if you are not using um.
Ideal to keep in grandparents’ car
Bought these to keep in my 4Runner for our grandtwins. They were very easy to fit to adjust the seat belt to the children - no more struggling with anchor straps between the cars seat and seat back! They are lightweight for easy transportation.
Great Booster seat
I really like the latch straps because it keeps the seat in place while mg daughter climbs in & out of the car unlike the ones I have purchased in the past for my older children
So easy to use!
I ordered for my granddaughters visits; so the seat goes in and out of the car often. One of the reasons I bought this one, was due to the latch system it offers. I was using an older Graco booster and this is definitely an upgrade. So easy to put in and take out of car. When installed it's very stable which I also like. Plus it's purple! Perfect.
Backless booster
Good, basic, booster seat. Ordering directly from Graco was quick, easy, and less expensive than the box stores. The only suggestion for a product improvement is a tether so it doesn’t move around when a child is not seated in it.
Good
My daughter really likes it and is adjusting well going from her car seat to this booster.
Would recommend.
Love this seat for my niece.. it’s just perfect, love the cup and the fact it latches to the seat.
child booster seat
bought 2 of these, one for each grandchild. They are real nice, light weight and holds their drink.
Great Booster Seat.
We bought two of these, one for each vehicle we have. Perfect for our 6 year old and he can use them for a while. Very happy with every Graco product that we own and we have several; car seats, boosters, Play pens among other items.
Really good booster seat for the price
The booster seat is wonderful and the 2 cup holders are very handy! The only inconvenient aspect that I don't like is that the seat cover and arm rest covers slide off of the clips quite easily.
Finally a seat that doesn’t slide
I own two of these seats for my two daughters (8 years old & 65lbs 4”1 and 6 years old, 70lbs, 4”3). My 6 year old has always complained about her booster seats sliding, until I installed this one. I have one in a pink color and the other in a purple. I drive a Nissan Pathfinder and they both fit in my middle room with their brother’s extend to fit car seat. The storage space is great for the crayons and the cup holders fit their water bottles. Easy to clean and easy to install, also easy to uninstall to place into a different car if needed.
Great booster for school aged children
Have not used this booster yet, however it looks exactly like the Affix one that I am using for my other child. Bought it to use in near future since my youngest is quickly outgrowing her other seat. Love the latch system, one main reason I bought it. We went with this one instead of the Affix for her so she could get the colors she wanted. Very easy to assemble and move from car to car. The kids love the little drawer to stash their toys and snacks.
Safety FIrst!
Sits properly in car. I like the strap that holds the seat belt strap away from childs neck off left shoulder. Child says if feel comfortable to sit in.
Easy to install and lightweight to carry
My son has been using this booster seat for over year and never complained about comfort. I like that it's very lightweight so I can transfer it from one car to another and quick to install. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because the cup holders are not big enough to hold the drinking cups my kids use.
Love it
I bought two of these for each car, so far so good. Pretty design
Very happy with this purchase
I purchased this booster for my Grandson for his Grandpa's pickup. Its seems to padded pretty good so should be comfortable. I like the fact that it has the latch system. Seems more secure and stable. Doesn't move around when not in use either. My Grandson loves the side compartment, he uses it for his sunglasses and snacks and some hotwheels cars. Great purchase!
Twins love them
Nice and comfortable, easy for 6 yr old twins to seat belt themselves in these seats, very secure seat because of the strap that pulls seat into place and easy to use. They like the colors and say the have comfortable sear arms.
Comfortable and convenient
Just bought 2 of these for our 6 year old and he loves them. He’s happy to be out of the five point harness booster seat (we kept him in there much longer than is recommended, but he never complained so we let it ride for safety’s sake). He loves the blue color, drink holder, and slide out tray. And we love how much more space we have in our van’s back seat. All in all, we are happy with this purchase.
Fits perfectly!
Needed something to fit in my husbands backseat of truck. Small space and the booster is perfect.
Simple & Safe
I purchased two of the Turbo-Boosters, for my Grand Daughter and Nephew. Easy to install, and simple to operate the "Latch System" since we switch the seats between two vehicles. The price was right too!
Absolutely Perfect!
I purchased this booster seat for my little sister, since she's grown out of her old car seat and I didn't have a booster for my own car (usually I'd take the booster from one of my parents' cars if I was going to drive her anywhere). I didn't want to deal with the hassle of constantly moving boosters in and out of cars, especially when I'll be driving her to and from school every day. I'm not sure which one of us loves this booster more! The cup holder is nice and large (fits her school water bottle nicely) and, according to my kid sister, the seat is pretty comfy. Plus, we were both able to choose the design (which is kinda retro, almost, with that honeycomb pattern, and the teal was just up my sister's alley), and she likes that it's her "big kid seat." Pretty sure my parents like it too, considering how many times they've tried to steal it out of my car to use in their own. Also, super easy to clean (yes, even dried-on ice cream stains) and nice and lightweight on the off chance I need to transfer to another car. Overall, well worth the purchase :)
Good quality product
I bought it months ago and my son is very happy about it. It's comfortable very safe and easy to install.
Great booster
I just bought this booster seat and my son absolutely loves it. It is a very well made booster. I love Graco.
Easy Peasy!
I used to get the cheaper booster seats from Walmart, but when we saw my Niece's TurboBooster LX, and how easy it was to latch it to the car, we had to have one! The seat pad is also a lot more comfortable than the other models. Still has the great cup holders and it's quick and easy to get in and out of the car! Best booster seat we've owned yet!
Comfortable
Very easy to install and comfortable for any size child.
Daughter loves!
We have had this for a little over a month and are happy with the purchase. We bought a second one for my husbands car. The color choices gave my daughter some ownership of the process.
Great features
Good product stylish comfortable light weight with water bottle holders
Great booster to allow for proper seatbelt placement
As someone who has had carotid and vertebral artery dissections, it was important to me to get a booster seat for my nieces/nephews so that their seatbelts were in front of their neck when they are in my car. I drive a 2024 Chevy Equinox and this fits perfectly in my car. I can actually fit two of these plus a regular car seat in the back of my SUV, if I put one of these on a side and one in the middle. They are relatively lightweight, so I have no problem getting them down from a shelf when I need to use them. The material on the seat is a good quality. And the cup holders are actually retractable, which is nice. My nephews who use this are currently 7 and 10 years old and they fit great in this booster for their height. If the younger one were a few inches shorter (maybe even a couple inches possibly) , he would likely need a booster with a back, so make sure the seatbelt falls on the proper spot on your kids. I also felt that it was reasonably priced. I anticipate that it will last me for at least several years.
Easy to use
This seat is easy to travel with and easy to install! It is simple to clean and set up. It was a great price for what your getting! My child says it is comfortable to sit in as well!
Pink Booster
I have been using Graco products for my kids for years! It was time that my daughter wanted to be a big girl and ride like the grown folks. Love that it’s pink. I caught it on sale which was great. The two cup holders comes in handy for drinks and/or storage for small toys. Very satisfied with my purchase!
Great for growing kids!
Great booster seat used for my nephew when picking him up from school! He immediately knew how the cup holders work, being able to be pushed in and out for better space utilization. Easy set up, nice fabric, fits well within my small SUV seat size!
Small space
Nice for small cars with less space. Not too bulky and heavey. Safety features are great. Easy to adjust to you car. Comfortable for kids to sit on during rides.
Comfortable and portable booster seat with cup hol
This backless booster seat is perfect for my grandson, and it's safe. He loves it becauseithas a cup holder and is not bulky! It's very comfortable and durable. Also very portable and lightweight. It was on sale at Target for $23.19.
Safety
I bought this a month ago and my 5 yo was very excited for the upgrade to a big boy seat! I recommend using a safety strap to secure it because on a turn, the booster can slide off our leather seats.
5 stars!
Work just as intended. This boost seat is the perfect fit.
Great buy!
Great buy! Good price and quality. Love the color and pattern options. Hide away cup holders for the win!
Backless booster
Fun design and easy to use. Cup holders are a bonus.
Worth the purchase!
Great affordable seat! My son picked out the paint splatter looking one and he loves the design. He’s also very happy about having two cup holders!
Booster seat
These booster seats are amazing and so easy to assemble. They have great ergonomics and padding for the kiddos! The cup holder is adjustable which is great and makes it easier for storage!
Great size and easy install
Super easy to install and remove. My daughter loves this seat. 2 cup holders is nice. Doesn't take up a lot of space. Good size. She says its comfy too.
Love it!
I love this booster seat! It is lightweight and doesn’t take up too much room. It also is made with a soft material. The added cup holders are a huge bonus!
Great seat
I used this booster with both of my boys and I have nothing but good things to say. It’s lightweight which made it so easy to move between cars. Despite being lightweight, its durability was amazing.
Easy to place and move anywhere
It’s very durable and safe! It works very well with my car and these kids find it very comfortable. It’s easy to adjust and move it anywhere and everywhere.
Perfect booster seat
My kids got this seat and I love how you can attach it to the car so it won't move all over the place and it comes with the cup holder that they use so much. Easy to carry in one hand and the price is unbeatable.
Booster for kid
We had this for our kid when he was 6 yr old. Very comfortable and very safe. Easy to carry on travel. My kid never complained about anything. Material was also very good
Great booster seat
This booster seat was so easy to install and looks great in my car. My 6 year old thinks it's super comfy and I also love how it easy it is to move to different car.
Good
We recently changed my son from a carseat to this Graco turbobooster lx backless booster. He loves it very much. Very comfortable looks very durable. You can move from one to car to another super fast and easy.
Perfect Go to
This booster seat has been such a help when traveling. I have been traveling with this and have not had any one complaint.
Exactly what I ordered
Works great! Kids are comfy, easy to use and install.
Simple, perfect fit.
Exactly what we needed, fits nice in the car, comfortable and the buckle is easy to access so my kid can buckle themselves in. We also like the hidden cupholders so it can fit between 2 car seats when needed.
Very solid purchase
Installation was simple. The boys like the dual cup holders and the independence of getting to buckle themselves in. Easy to move from car to car as needed. Comfortable even on long trips.
Perfect Boost.
Turbo Booster was the prefect item to purchase for our grandson. It is easy to install and remove.
Easy to buckle & love the chidden cup ho;ders
I bought this for my grandson & it's so easy to use & move from car to car
Eh
I bought this for my husband’s grandma’s Highlander, my mom’s Lincoln, and my Fiesta/now Sentra. Its great, but it moves in all three cars even with my 50 lb step daughter in the seat. And the little cushions for the arm rests fall off cause one did from mine and now I need one for the Gust color.
Easy to use.
I bought for my grandkids last year. Great design & easy to use. Both older grandkids love it. Works great!
Perfect!!!
We love it. Super cute and easy to install or take out. My girl loves the cup holders and how easy she can buckle all by herself! Definitely recommend😍
Great seat.
I'm very happy with the car seat. Works great for my grandson.
Unhappy
I have two of these booster seats. The drawers are hard to open for an adult so you can imagine the difficulty a child has. Not to mention all of their trinkets have fallen behind the drawer and inside the seat. I called CS to get assistance with removing the drawers and was told nothing can be done. Once the drawer is removed the seat is damaged. And the drawer is not meant to be removed. I am very disappointed and my children are sad to not have their trinkets back. These will go in the garage. Save your money and headache. Buy somthing else.
Great Affix Latch booster feature
I got this last week and was impressed with the latch feature. I have a small frame child so I always look for a booster that is sturdy, stable and comfortable for him. This booster helped prop up my child a lil higher so the seat belt adjusted better on his body.
Attractive and easy to use .
The booster is stable and provides great cushioning. The positioning handles assure the belt is in proper placement for adjustment if the seat belt,
Good Value and Easy to Use
My child loves this booster seat. It's well designed with a comfortable seat, armrests, and cupholders, and it's easy to move between cars or carry through an airport. The price is on par with other brands.
Perfect
I like it, It's very practical, easy to use and a beautiful color
Lack of Communication Disappointing
Orderded 2 of these several months ago - only received 1 of them. Sent an email to the company - no response. Highly disappionted with the lack of communication.
Light and convenient
Light and convenient for kids aged 3 and above. Good enough height for any size car seat.
Great for everyday or travel
Design was cute and vibrant! Super comfy for my 9 year old and light enough to use as a travel booster for our trips!
Great booster!
Kids love it. Works very well and easy to get them in and out. Feel very comfortable with this purchase.
Graco is the great choice
Good quality booster seat. Only thing I'd do different is get the ones with the anchor straps, as i have done in the past. Graco is the best you can buy.
Almost perfect
Love how easy it is to get in the car, but I wish it had a way to connect it to the car. It slides around when not in use.
Great Buy!
Great quality booster! It's light weight, so it's easy to move to other vehicles. My child loves the hideaway cup holders and the fun fabric. Highly recommend!
Compact and lightweight for single moms
My son has been using this brand of car seat since he was a baby. Durable, inexpensive and affordable. It can be disassembled and moved wherever you need it. The seat and backrest are soft.
Great Booster
I brought this for a friend and they love it. .................
No anchor moves everywhere
Bought this recently for my 4-year-old really wish it would State on the box that it does not come with an anchor this car booster seat will not stay in place so I don't know how it would in an accident in the weird thing that comes to help keep the seatbelt off of their neck is complete piece of crap would have been way better off just putting a one of the old shiny metal ones in the box this is supposed to be a top brand and I am very disappointed
Quality material, easily cleaned
This brand is tried and true, reliable for kids. I love the removable cover, making it easy to clean, with a durable fabric. I also like that the cup holders can fold in to save space. This is comfortable for my child passengers, and is not too bulky.
Good for my very BIG kid
I bought this booster for my 11 year old son he is on the larger side weight wise but height wise is short but this booster seat fits him quite well and he loves using it!
Safe travels
I purchased the Graco Turbobooster LX backless car seat, and I was impressed with its performance. The installation was straightforward, and it provided a secure fit for my child. The design is sleek and comfortable, and my kid found it enjoyable to use. Cleaning was hassle-free, and the overall durability of the seat exceeded my expectations. It provided peace of mind knowing my child was safe during our travels.
Grandkids like them
This seems to work well for my grandkids. They are able to buckle themselves in pretty much and I appreciate that they are safe. Just somewhat less supportive when they fall asleep though than their previous car seats.
So comfy and so easy to install
The assembly and installation for this seat took less than 5 minutes. My kid doesn't squirm or lunge out of this seat so I can tell it's more comfortable for her. We've had it installed 3 weeks and we're both happy with it.
Don't bother...
I just bought this booster seat for my 4 year old son. When putting it together I noticed that there is only 1 arm rest! Really!
Nice Booster
Very nice booster seat for my 6 year old grandson. I was a bit disappointed that the adjustable armrests don’t adjust any higher than they do but it is fine.
My 5 year old LOVES this seat!!!
I really like this seat! My five year old loves the design. I gave it four stars because we traveled with it and the arm cushion was lost on the plane. We have had it for only a couple weeks and have one arm cushion now. Everything else is good so far!
Wrong size unable to have free returns can not use
I purchased for my 2 year old grandson not realizing it was for a 4+ year old. Tried to return but it cost just as much to return as seat. Graco dies not have free returns. Next time i will buy from Amazon
Great booster with new latch system!
I love this booster. Our last booster didn't have the latch system included, so we decided to get a new one with the latch... and love it! I LOVE the new latch system that can easily be tightened in the front. It makes it so much easier to securely install.
Easy to install.
About this about 2 weeks ago very easy to install and my son loves it.
