Suffers in Comparison

A friend recommended this car seat and it had a few features I liked so I bought it after I bought a .Compass seat
I regret that decision every day I use this seat. Seat belts get tangled in it. It's far less padded. It feels far less solid. When you move it out of a car, it falls apart. We'll buy the Compass
when we need another.

Stylish, Comfortable, Kid-Approved

Finally, after much searching, researching, reading and asking friends I do believe we have found a seat that the whole family can love. I was looking for some information on the web when I came across the Graco website. There, front and centre was the TurboBooster! I have to admit, I got excited, I did the whole Turbo Tour! Then I realized I had to have that seat. After a year with a seat I hate, I had finally found something that looked like everything I wanted.
First the seat is for children 30-100 pounds, perfect for my daughter now and right until she can sit in the car on her own. The seat can be used either backless or with the back, making it more versatile. So I ordered it and waited anxiously for its arrival.
It came in a small box which was quite light, which I felt was a bonus, as our last seat was very heavy. The seat came in three pieces and was very easy to put together. The only tool needed was a Philips screw driver to attach the arm rests.
The seat has large seatbelt guides and easy to adjust head rest. One hand can lower or raise the head rest and this can be done even with the child in the seat. The seatbelt rests perfectly across my daughter and there is no twisting or loosening of the seatbelt. The only problem is that it is hard for my daughter to reach the release button because of the arm rests, but I think she will get used to it and it will become easier for her.
The head support has EPS foam for side impact protection and is curved in such a way that napping should be comfortable. The seat bottom could be more padded but in comparing this seat with our other seat, there is little difference in the padding. Also cover removes easily for cleaning.
If the seat is used backless it comes with a shoulder belt positioning guide to help position the belt across the child. It looks easy to use, but we are still using the seat with the back so we haven't actually tried it yet. The seat can be used backless for children 4-10, 40-100 pounds and 57 inches tall. With the back the seat can be used by children 30-100 pounds and 57 inches tall.
The seat has retractable cup holders on both sides, a feature that thrilled my daughter. She puts her drink in one and her treats in the other. The holders are not very deep so some containers will fall out. But my daughter loves them regardless, so that is all that matters really.
Overall this is the seat I have been waiting for! It has all the features and the look I wanted. The price is very reasonable and I do believe we have purchased our last car seat!

Simple, Functional, Comfortable...2 CUPHOLDERS!!
Reviewer: Travel A. Lott , Norfolk, VA

My daughter enjoys the two cupholders. The hinged back allows pulling the seat forward while slightly reclining the back for a more comfortable ride over long distances. The armrests and cupholders make a long trip tolerable to my 3.6 y.o. Highly recommended.

Comfy and easy to use
Reviewer: , Orange County, CA

I did a lot of shopping before I bought this seat. I wanted something that was more comfortable than the Graco booster we already had, and was more comfy to use on long trips, especially when my daughter fell asleep. I also was looking for more head support in a side impact. This one is more padded on the seat than the Britax while supporting her head when she is napping. The cup holder is great although not deep enough for more than a small sippy cup or water bottle, but is also used for snacks and to hold
