My Review
One thing that I absolutely despise is having to take a perfectly installed car seat out from my car and hand it off to a friend or grandparent. With my oldest being eight years old, I have lost track of how many times I have had to do this and it will never be something that I enjoy. I don’t expect everyone to have an extra car seat at their disposal to prevent this pet peeve of mine, so I have always just dealt with the gracefully. Apparently I am not the only mother out there that found it to be an inconvenience, as that is what inspired the mom inventor behind the BubbleBum inflatable booster seat. I am so amazed by this booster seat and how simple it makes life. I just love how compact it is when deflated, making it perfect to store in my to go bag or even in the car, without taking up much space.
As you can see from the image below, there is a nozzle on the side that you blow into and the booster seat only takes twenty seconds to inflate! It really does not get any more convenient than that.
Your child’s safety is always number one when it comes to traveling in the car and BubbleBum is very adamant about making sure their seats provide that. There is a belt positioning clip on the side that ensures your child is wearing their seat belt properly at all times. It’s very simple to use and easy to access so no one forgets to make sure your child is buckled appropriately. Overall I could not be more pleased with this product and really wish I had had something like this when my daughter was younger, it would have saved so much time and hassle. The price is amazing and the product is superb, something I highly recommend to all parents that have their child’s safety in mind when it comes to traveling in the car.
I love that it folds flat! How awesome!
Love that you told us it is inflated by mouth. I just wonder how puncture proof it is & how do you know that you have inflated it enough?
Looks neat, and that it deflates small enough to fit in the console.
There is NOTHING worse than removing and switching car seats from vehicle to vehicle. This would make things sooo much easier!!!
I love the hot pink Bubble Bum Booster Seat! I wish these had of been around when my kids were little! Awesome review!
Of all the reasons one could use for liking this product, the fact that it stops the need to remove a carseat is my favorite.
I’m like you; I hated doing that.
I love that this is lightweight, portable, inflatable, and re-usable!
i love how convenient it is especially with moving from vehicle to vehicle often.
This would be a great back up booster for when you have an extra kid riding home with you or for Grandma’s car.
This would be a great seat to have in the “Mimi mobile” . I like that it fits a wide range of children. It’s got to be comfortable!
I cant believe this is so crazy!! I like this booster!!!
I love how portable this is. It’d be awesome for travel.
Pretty neat invention. Not sure how it would hold up in an accident or how safe it would be tho?
I think these are great for grandparents to have for those times when they are driving with their grandchildren and that prevents having to switch that bulky carseat every time
This looks amazing! Would love to check this out in person!
This would be great to have. Like that is easy to use
Only 20 seconds to inflate? That is awesome in intself.
I love how it is so portable for each vehicle
I love this item. This would be perfect for Grandson who is 3 and he could use it for a long time too. I love that it exceeds the safety standards too. What a great product!
This is interesting. I have never seen or heard of these before. Wouldn’t be a bad idea to keep one in the console just in case my little niece or nephew might need a ride instead of having to switch car seats in between cars. What a genius product! Great review!
I like that it folds flat
This looks great and I like that it takes less than 20 seconds to inflate
This booster seat looks very nice. Thanks for sharing!
