Graco Ultra Cargo 8488L Booster Car Seat

Pros: This has the most padding of any of the booster seats I've found...
Cons: ...but that's still not very much.

Am I the only one who’s ever walked the carseat aisle at any given store and been amazed that almost none of the carseats (especially boosters) have any padding at all??? If they were at least ergonomically designed instead of ...

Pros: Lightweight, Easy to Use, Easy to Install, Cost Effective
Cons: Straps could get twisty, Front adjust plate pops off on mine.

I purchased this seat a year ago when they were on sale at Value City for $39.99. I had heard good things about it, and we needed a spare to be passed around from Gramma to Aunt to Daddy's vehicle so it also needed to be easy to use and easy to install. ...

Pros: cup/snack tray, removable neck pillow, snooze bar
Cons: NONE!!

I saw this seat in our local Target just a few days before we were in an accident. Because of the accident, my two children needed new seats and this seat was my first choice for my 18 month old. Now that we have it and use it, I know my choice was ...

Pros: Good quality, 5pt harness, easy to install, cup & snack holder, easy on the checkbook.
Cons: Straps are sometimes annoying.

If there is one thing I am particularly picky about, it's the carseats I put my kids in. However, being a stay at home means that we don't have the income to afford very high-priced seats, but we *do* want good quality and safe items for our kids.
...

Pros: Small profile fits easily in smaller cars and on air planes.
Cons: Seat belt slides are difficult to use.

The Graco Ultra CarGo Booster Car Seat offers a five point harness forward facing carseat and belt positioning booster with a narrow profile. This seat is the ideal choice for families with multiple seats (or children) in the backseat of a smaller car. ...

Pros: Buckles latch/unlatch easily, converts into booster easily
Cons: Raised sides make lifting a 3 year old into it difficult

I decided to get this booster seat because we were having a baby (who is sitting here with me right now :) so we decided to promote our three year old to a booster from the car seat (which would be used for the baby.) I used a "points redemption"...

Pros: Roomy, adjusts from front, easy enough to install
Cons: Not enough padding in back, crotch strap a bit long, nothing special

I do not love combination seats that have harnesses and later become boosters. But when our small-for his age 4 year old outgrew the harness length on his Evenflo Triumph, I thought it would be silly to get another convertible. Since he is only 31 ...

Pros: Can be used two ways--five-point harness and booster with seatbelt.
Cons: Be careful with the seatbelt adjusters--they can be tricky.

Our four-year old is just barely 30 pounds, and still needs a five-point restraint. She is 39 inche ...

Pros: very durable, easy to adjust straps, easy latch installation
Cons: cup holder too far forward

I have been using this car seat for my 26-month-old for over a year, and I have been very happy with it. My car has the Latch system, so that makes installation relatively easy (and I feel confident that it was installed properly). The straps are ...

Pros: affordable, comfortable, and safe
Cons: Not a lot of side head support

This is a forward facing car seat only. It works for children 22-80 pounds. I was looking for a comfortable carseat for a toddler, not necessarily one that would work in every stage. Most of them hardly had any padding and looked like they would ...

Pros: Light weight. Cup holder and elastic pouch come in handy.
Cons: Seems hard to the touch.

I bought this car seat for the four year old I take care of (Thomas). It works well. The seat belt can go behind the car seat (under 40 pounds) or in front of it and the child (over 40 pounds). It is easy to use, Thomas likes to buckle himself in. He...

Pros: up-front adjuster, cup holder, deep sides for napping & the straps never get twisted!!
Cons: Not much padding. Also not recommended to be used as a seat belt guide.

I loved everything about this seat when I first bought it for my 2 year old last year. It has deep sides that hold his head when he falls asleep. The up-front harness adjuster is wonderful for the day to day weather changes, I always know the straps are...

Pros: Comfortable, easy-to use
Cons: none

This car seat is wonderful, especially compared to the Evenflo I had before it. I had such a tough time adjusting the straps in the other one, I gave that one to my husband and kept this one in the family vehicle. This car seat is super easy to ...

Pros: Easy to install, 5-Point harness, great price.
Cons: Straps do twist.

We we're needing the next step up in a Car seat and I was looking for something that could be converted to a Booster for later. I'm picky when it comes to which one to get so did a lot of researching and found this one to be good. When it came time to ...

Pros: Lightweight, easy to install, easy to adjust straps
Cons: none as far as I'm concerned

I bought this seat for my daughter when she outgrew her convertible seat and I was pregnant with my son. It is easy to install both with the seat belt and with the LATCH. The seat is light and I have no problems with the straps twisting like I did with the previous seat. It has a cup holder and a net for toys. We just recently bought a Monte Carlo which is a 2 door and my daughter can easily get in and out of the seat by herself and get out of the car with no problem.
