BubbleBum Inflatable Travel Booster Seat for Car, Portable Booster Seat for Car - Backless, Foldable & Narrow Slim Fit -Travel Car Seat for Kids 40-100 lbs - Black

My 7 year old son needed a booster seat to sit in-between two car seats. This was small enough and fit perfectly where he can still strap himself in.

I purchased this seat to travel with after a plane trip. It was light weight and easy to pack. The seat is soft, but it slid a little bit when my 5 yo grand daughter climbed onto the seat, making the seat belt buckling challenging. The seat slid over the buckle attachment every time she climbed in, so I ended up pulling her to the side to access the buckle. We put her in the center of the back seat of a Subaru Forester. The seat feels comfortable enough to carry into restaurants to use as chair booster.

Assuming your child is of an appropriate height and weight to use this booster, it’s a really hard option to beat for travel! Being able to transport this in the small carry bag included is really convenient and being able to unpack it and set it up in any vehicle nearly instantly is wonderful. We don’t travel all that often, but if we’re flying somewhere and dealing with a rental car on the other end, this just makes life much easier than dealing with a traditional booster seat.

Can be useful if it’s the right size. Easier and cheaper than trying to lug around your own car seats.

Product Review: This inflatable booster worked great for us! My husband was quite skeptical but we both thought it was perfect, especially for traveling. My daughter is 6 but quite slim, and since she just clicked over the 40-lb. weight minimum for boosters, she is still in a convertible booster with a 5-point harness because I believe its safer and she doesnt complain so why not? However, we recently took an airplane trip and since we already had to travel with my younger sons carseat, we did not want to lug 2 full sized seats through airports. We decided since driving on our trip would be minimal once we got to our destination, to go with this booster. Im so glad we did. It inflates and deflates like a breeze. It rolls up and fit in my daughters backpack until we needed it. It was easy for her to use, comfortable to sit on, and the belt guides were easy to use and kept the seatbelt perfectly placed on her shoulder. It will be perfect to keep in my car to use when we have an unexpected friend ride along with us because its small and will fit nicely in the middle seat between our two very large Britax convertible seats, which hard boosters probably would not. Id purchase again without hesitation. Warehouse Seller Review: I ordered this item as New/Like New from Amazon Warehouse Deals. We received it in a torn and re-taped box (as expected) but sadly the item had clearly been used. It had food (?) crumbs all on it, along with a large amount of dog hair. So, we returned it and since we needed it right away, we bought the same item at Walmart for almost the exact same price.

UPDATE: Received my replacement seat from Amazon - its the exact same (old) manufacture date (as you can see from the picture of them both together). The only thing Amazon customer service could tell me is that they must not sell many of these, so all their stock is probably dated. Im frustrated with the amazon experience - at the end of the day they say they cant sell a valid product, and theres nothing they will do about it. Bubble bum suggested they could help me, so I reached out to them, but they havent yet replied to my email. So I still have no car seat! So I love this car seat - my problem is with the dated stock Amazon is selling. I owned one of these a couple of years ago, for my daughter. She loved it, it was all good. But my son didnt like the color (which is fair enough, it was very pink and hes 8). My son is now essentially out of a booster seat, but hes not quite the right height to ride without one. We were in a bad car accident once, and it only takes the ones to realize how important car seats and booster are. So yes, I am purchasing this for my 8.5 yr old! We first purchased one in November, for an international trip we were taking. It worked wonderfully - so simple and light to pack, great for moving in and out of various rental cars. However, while moving it around I glanced at the back - and realized it was already 1.5 years old/past manufacturing date. As most people who use them know, car seats have expiry dates (this is 4 years). So Id already lost over 25% of the use of the seat. I returned it, Amazon refunded my money. Were about to take another trip, and besides, my son really likes this car seat. He especially likes that its discrete. I like that I can easily move it to fit another (older) kid in the car. I was disappointed to discover that the one I received yesterday was almost a year old - thats going right back! I called Amazon and explained the situation. Theyre going to send me another (3rd times a charm?). But the lady on the phone explained that although the seats are sold by Amazon directly, theres nothing she can do to ensure theyre new stock. So Im going to give it one more go, and Ill update in a couple of days. But I suggest buying from a store where you can see the expiration date and check youre not getting old stock.

Great for short trip carpooling to keep in trunk in a pinch as it fits between any full size carseat/booster. A star off as not a great belt positioner for backrow middle seatbelt from car ceiling.

As a parent of three kids (5, 3 and 18 months) Im faced with the oh-too-familiar problem of finding a way to fit three child car seats in the back of my vehicle. I have a mid-sized SUV with one row of back seats and - with my 5-year-old about to graduate into a booster - I knew fitting three seats side-by-side would be an issue. I was initially skeptical about the BubbleBum because it seems such a small, inconsequential and inadequate proposition. But Im pleasantly surprised to report that my expectations were completely unfounded. First off the size and portability is unbeatable. I was concerned that it would be too awkward to function as a booster seat for long-journeys, but my five-year-old is completely comfortable sitting on it. It sits - with ample room to spare - between two other childs car seats and there is plenty of space. Buckling in and out is easy. Just guide the regular lap-belt portion of your cars standard seatbelts through the two red guide clips, and youre done. This literally takes seconds to do and is far less complicated than I feared from reading some of the descriptions online. Set-up was also super-easy. Just blow-it up like a balloon, insert the air-stopping valve and youre done. The added bonus is that the BubbleBum also serves as a portable option - so if your child is traveling in a different car.....or if you need something for a taxi or a rental car.....its extremely portable.

I love how small and space saving they are. Bought 2, they fit perfectly in the third row of my SUV with a rear facing car seat in between them. Easy to store and clean, perfect.
