| cbgresh's Full Review: Graco TurboBooster 8491 - Cricket |
My daughter is 6 1/2 years old, weighs 55 pounds and is 50 inches tall and she needed a new booster seat for in my vehicle. She had a high back Graco style booster seat, but had outgrown that one height wise. I wanted a booster seat that gave her a higher seat for looking out the window, a safe belt positioner and something that would move in and out of the vehicle easily. The Graco Turbo Booster was the perfect choice for us!
The price was definitely not a concern but at $19.99 at Sears it worked out better than expected. Not only did I buy one for my car but I was able to buy another for my husbands vehicle too. The Graco Turbo Booster is forward facing and uses the selt belt restraints found in your vehicle. The seat belt will fit properly over the child's hips and shoulders while avoiding the soft tissue areas that many other booster seats target. This is of the utmost importance in the safe use of the booster seat.
The Graco Turbo Booster will fit a child 40-100 pounds and up to 57" in height. It is avaiable in several color schemes including a denim blue, black and gray and blue and pink for the girlie girls in the family. The seat cover is removable and machine washable. There are 2 seperate cup holders that are great for travel. Water bottles, juice boxes, fast food cups, etc fit nicely and securely with no worries of tipping over when you go around a bend. My daughter likes to use the second cup holder for a snack bag or a container of fries. Whatever works for her!
The Graco Turbo Booster is very comfortable too. The seat is well cushioned for long car rides and the arm rests give extra support and containment. A child sits back against the vehicle seat in a natural position and not stiffly like in other styles of booster seats.
I know you will not be disappointed in the Graco Turbo Booster. Graco stands behind their products and if you properly register your booster seat if there would ever be a recall you will be informed. That is a major plus in this day in age when so many products are recalled on a daily basis. Graco has always been a leader in keeping the consumer informed.
