Does anyone have a recommendation on a travel friendly booster car seat? My 5 yr old is using a Britax Frontier and I'm not interested in lugging it on a plane cross country in an upcoming trip. I thought something like the Bubble Bum looked lightweight and portable for one-week use in a rental car. Would love to know if anyone has this or similar item...

I plan to get the Graco TurboBooster for that purpose when the time comes. I've never seen the Bubble Bum in person which is what is holding me back.

i haven't used one, but a friend of mine has 2 and uses them for travel/playdates and hasn't had any issues.

@looch: I haven't either but it was rated pretty well by the car seat lady so I think I'm gonna give it a try.. The whole inflatable and fits in your purse feature is too tempting..I will let you know what I think!

@mrs. bird: thanks, that is good to hear!

We have the Bubble Bum! We used it a few times in cabs or for play dates. Love how portable it is... Did you end up using it?

@T-Mom: how did it work for you?

@SAHM0811: @locavore_mama: @looch: We used the Bubble Bum, and I loved how convenient it was! I just inflated it right when we got to the rental agency, and it really came in handy since we had to haul DS's car seat and three pieces of luggage onto the rental car bus. DD also learned how to position the belt herself, and I double checked her every time. However, she fell asleep a lot on the trip, and there was nothing to "lean" on ... so she was falling asleep all over herself and in not the best positions. We'll definitely use it again on trips and in case she needs to ride in a friend's car, but not for every day use... Thumbs up from me!

@T-Mom: Thanks for updating. We're a long way from needing one, but I will grab one if I see it on clearance!
