Our Review of the Eddie Bauer Adjustable Booster
The Eddie Bauer Adjustable Booster starts out as a forward facing toddler carseat with an integrated 5-point harness, good for kids from 22-40 lbs. The Adjustable Booster then ?graduates? to a backless booster (by detaching the seatback, naturally) or belt positioning booster that allows a child up to 100 lbs. to ride in safety. Like all Eddie Bauer carseats, the Adjustable Booster comes covered in soft, neutral fabrics that any kid will find comfortable.
The removable backrest of the Adjustable Booster has deep side wings with energy absorbing ProTech foam, and uses an adjustable 5-point harness to secure kids from 22-40 lbs. The headrest adjusts to 3 different heights, and the pivoting armrests flip up and out of the way to make climbing in and out of the Adjustable Booster easier. There?s also two cupholders, which, as any parent who?s ever had a drink spilled all over their backseat will attest, are a very handy feature.
The Adjustable Booster is a less-expensive alternative to the belt-positioning Eddie Bauer Deluxe Booster. Like the Deluxe version, the Adjustable Booster offers great features like the cupholders and armrests, but the Deluxe Booster also has these unique benefits:
The Deluxe Booster offers:
- QuickFit harness system that adjusts easily and without re-threading
- Three recline positions
- Five position open-loop vehicle belt guides

Eddie Bauer Adjustable Booster Reviews
Not up to par
Not for a Volvo
Great seat for the price
Just OK
Good things: Cupholders are nice. Seat padding and size of seat are adequate. Fabric is very soft.
Bottom line: Not the best choice for a seat with 5 point harness. I didn't try it in the booster-only mode because there are many better choices on the market.
Comments from The Staff:
Wow, sounds like you have had a heck of a time with this seat! We do have a 30 day return policy, and would have been more then happy to pay back the return shipping if the seat you had gotten was discolored, and we would have been more then happy to help you choose another seat that would be a little bit more comfortable for the child.
