Amazon.com Product Reviews

For over 50 years, Graco has been designing and manufacturing high quality children's products that live up to their passion and commitment to child welfare and safety.


Graco is one of the world's best known and most trusted juvenile products companies.

In Graco's SafeSeat sytem, the TurboBooster youth booster seat is step three of their child restraint system. For children aged three to 10 years, this forward-facing booster provides the necessary comfort and protection to make car travel safer. With an updated design and new, sporty features the TurboBooster is a superb choice when the child outgrows their toddler seat.

Graco TurboBooster youth booster seat in Moonstone
Expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam is the industry standard for impact absorption.

From the top down, expanded polystyrene (EPS) energy absorbing foam lines the head and neck area for greater protection during impact. The one-handed adjustable headrest slides out with a push of a button and a tug of the headrest. The button is located at the top of the booster seat so that it is unreachable by the child. Two seat belt positioners on either side aid in proper positioning. The seat back and headrest are wide and well-padded and provide plenty of room and protection without being confining. The seat back has two reclining positions (vertical and reclined), but it is at the mercy of whether the vehicle's seat can recline.

The seat back can be completely removed to provide a backless booster when the child is old enough. The padded armrests are adjustable, however, they aren't fully articulated, but at least they are height adjustable. The seat is wide and cushy, and shouldn't cause problems during long rides. The retractable cup holders (one on each side of the booster) come in handy for holding snacks and drinks. The entire padding is easy to remove and is machine washable. The manufacturer recommends allowing the padding to hang dry.

If the value of a product is determined by the ratio of price to longevity, then the Graco TurboBooster youth seat is a steal. The manufacturer recommend age range is three to 10 years old, the recommended height range is 38 to 57 inches, and the weight range is from 30 to 100 pounds. --Scott Teal

About Graco
In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on.

5 out of 5 stars Great seat!   November 11, 2008
S. Corter (Denver, NC)
I purchased two of these seats for my 4 1/2 year old twins. They are very comfortable in them. The only complaint I would have is they are not very comfortable if they needed to sleep in the car. One of my kids complained that his neck hurt. Other than that they are great seats!


4 out of 5 stars Upholds Graco Reputation   October 24, 2008
Julie C. Vanderploeg (Colorado City, CO United States)
I like this seat, but agree with other reviews that it doesn't have much padding. It works, is safe, and my son loves the cup holders.


5 out of 5 stars Comfortable, attractive, and safe   October 14, 2008
A. Dunn (Woodburn, OR)
My daughter picked this booster seat out because of its color. However, I did some research and found Graco boosters are rated as very safe. So we both love it. Two drink holders, attractive floral pattern and comfortable seat make her happy, while I enjoy knowing she is riding in a seat that is safe.


5 out of 5 stars Love This Booster!   October 10, 2008
Luv's Golf (Newcastle)
I'm the Grandma of a very small 7-year old. My biggest concern was to find a booster whose seat belt would fit him. This one was perfect, without adjustment.
Additionally, this is the most easily installed seat ever. It is light weight and is simple to move in and out of the car without any problem. I was also thrilled to find that it was one of the safest rated boosters in a recent recall.



2 out of 5 stars Cute But Not Comfortable   September 27, 2008
Denise M. Durrett (California)
This seat is good for short trips. My daughter loves the colors on this seat, but complains about a sore rear end after about half an hour due to a lack of seat padding. She also has a hard time sleeping on trips due to the upright positioning of the seat- her head bobs forward and she gets a stiff neck. Since the seat needs to be flush against the back of the actual car seat, it's not adjustable for comfort. It's kind of a pain to move between cars too- the seat back releases very easily from the base and we keep dropping the base. It just feels flimsy. The stationary armrests make it difficult to buckle the seat belt and adjust it. It'd be great if they flipped up out of the way.
