Graco TurboBooster 2.0 Highback Booster Car Seat, Declan

Easy to build and install. Comfortable and easy to adjust. Great deal and we love that it has cup holders too. Very sturdy and the perfect size!

Great transition from a car-seat. Big and sturdy but still light. They are comfortable for the kids and seem safe and secure. They look great too.

Great seat & the lil ones love it.

Good boostercar seat. Like that the back can be removed. Also like Graco’s lifespan for this booster compared to other boosters. 4 stars just because when child isn’t in the car the booster does scoot on the seat (uses the seatbelt to secure in place when child is present).

I was in the market for a new car seat because my daughter was outgrowing her old one—and frankly, I was tired of feeling like I needed a gym membership just to lug it around. I always thought high-back boosters started at 4 years/40 lbs., so imagine my delight when I found this one starting at 3 years/30 lbs. Cue angelic choir. Like any responsible parent, I did my research (translation: read enough reviews to qualify for an honorary PhD in Car Seatology). The main complaints seemed to be about the latch system and the “wiggle test.” Apparently, without the seatbelt attached, some reviewers reported a five-inch shimmy. That’s not a car seat, that’s a dance floor. Still, I took the risk—mostly because I was done arm-wrestling the behemoth we had before. The seat arrived quickly, in its original box, no frills. Setup was surprisingly easy—so easy, I didn’t even have to channel my inner IKEA warrior. It fit perfectly in my mid-size sedan, the fabric was soft, and my daughter gave it the coveted kid seal of approval by declaring it comfy before I even finished installing it. Big win. The side-impact safety features felt solid without turning her into a burrito. But the highlight? The cup holder and the “secret drawer.” She thought she had discovered hidden treasure. I didn’t have the heart to tell her the manufacturer planned it that way—so as far as she’s concerned, she’s basically Indiana Jones. Now, let’s talk latches. Contrary to the scary reviews, this seat actually has two latches, plus a slick push-button release and a pull strap that snugged everything up like magic. I gave it a firm wiggle test and—no salsa dancing. The seatbelt design does have one quirk: my daughter is thrilled she gets to use a “real” seatbelt like Mommy and Daddy, but the armrest design means she still needs help buckling herself. Minor inconvenience, but worth noting. One funny (okay, slightly scary) moment: before installing, I let her sit in it on the floor. She leaned back and—whoosh—the whole back reclined flat like she was auditioning for a La-Z-Boy commercial. Not a design flaw, just user error, but let’s say my reflexes got a surprise workout. Lesson learned: chairs need cars behind them. Overall: easy to install, looks stylish (as stylish as car seats get), and most importantly, my daughter feels like she “leveled up” to a big-kid seat. For me, that’s worth every penny and every laugh along the way.

I purchased this for my 6 year old who is 77lbs and is 48" tall and this is a perfect fit for him. We purchased the Graco Turbobooster 2.0 in Declan, which is a very nice black and grey color/design. It's slim, comfortable, and easy to put together, as well as transfer from car to car if needed. It does not come with a latch system, you just place the booster in the seat of the car. It was super easy to put together as well! I love the 2-in-1 functionality to turn it from a high back booster seat to just the booster seat when the time comes. I also love the adjustable head/arm rests. The hideaway cup holders come in handy when my two teens are in the backseat with our 6 year old. Makes traveling a lot easier! We use the built in belt positioner and have not had a problem with it and our son thinks its super comfy and easy for him too use too.

Great buy. I brought it for it's safety features.

This booster has become our go-to. We have 2 and plans to buy a third. The ability to run the seatbelt through the strap holder eliminates the issue of the seat belt moving or not being at the proper height- an issue that we were having with other backless boosters. Kiddo reports that it's also much more comfortable. He falls asleep in the car often, and the headrest allows him to sleep comfortably so he's not slumping over. We love how easy it is to remove and move it over to another car. Very portable and light weight. Overall a great quality booster and we have recommended to others too!
