Graco Turbobooster

My first DD is 5 yrs and 3 months and is currently in a regent. My second DD will be 3 in May and is in an Evenflo Triumph. The triumph goes to 40 lbs, so when my second DD outgrows the it, she will get the Regent and my 1st DD will get a booster.

I see so many different patterns of the turbobooster and they range from $39.99 (on sale) http://www.kmart.com/shc/s/p_10151_10104_024W954780110001P?vName=Baby&cName=Gear&sName=Car+Seats to $79.99 the one I really like http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2899788

What is the difference between them? Is it just the material/pattern or do some have more foam, protection, are better or what?

Please help!

It's just pattern and padding :thumbsup:

The more expensive ones generally have 'gracopedic' foam in the seat, making it a little more comfortable.

Yep, pattern and padding. I think it is worth it to get one with gracopedic padding if you can. Turbo's don't have much padding and can be hard. If it is used often I would get the one with more padding.

I own the one in the second link and it does not have any extra padding in the bum area. It does have little "pillow" head wings though. I wouldn't call them any kind of side impact protection, but they're pillows.

Decent to sleep in, but pretty tippy:

I actually like the looks of the KMart one you linked to better:shrug-shoulders:
