Editorial Review

The Cooshie Booster is a second cousin to those hard-plastic booster seats provided in restaurants. The chief advantage of the Cooshie is its semisoft foam construction: firm enough for support, but both lightweight and comfortable. It's also short in the back (3 inches of seat padding plus 3 inches of back makes it 6 inches high); this is something of a compromise between portability and back support. Overall dimensions are 13 inches deep by 6 inches high by 14 inches wide; that's a little bulky to drag around to restaurants, perhaps, but ideal for making use of big-people chairs at home. Another advantage over the hard-plastic booster: the stippled foam won't slide around on a wooden chair. A not-very-durable tote bag is included. --Richard Farr

Baby Smarts Cooshie Booster seat's slip-proof surface is a cinch to clean. Its nonporous surface won't absorb spilled liquids. Great for home or take along to a restaurant.

5.0 out of 5 stars We just love it!, January 21, 2003

My 16 month old daughter has gotten to the stage where she no longer wants to use a highchair or any of those other booster seats with the trays (ie. Tot-Loc, First Years 4 in 1 feeding seat, and First Years Folding Booster...all great products by the way) She really just wanted to sit at the kitchen and dining room table like a big girl, and she didn't want to sit in the baby seats that allow you to convert them to big kid boosters by removing the trays. We were at our wits end and after reading all the reviews here, we decided to give it a try, but I must admit we were a bit skeptical and nervous using this for our daughter because she is so young and most of the other reviewers said they used this for an older child. Well our daughter absolutely loves this and is so proud of her upgrade from highchair to big kid comfy booster. The booster wipes clean very easily, sticks to the chair very well, and the seat itself is non-slip, so our daugher does not slouch and side off this seat like she did with other hard plastic boosters. Best of all, the seat brings her to the perfect height at our table (much better fit than the hard plastic boosters) and she appears to be much more comfortable (not to mention our once picky eater is now happily eating everything she sees now). This booster seat seems to have completely changed the way my daughter looks at meal time for the better. Also, the travel case this booster comes with is a nice touch, and it has room to pack a bib or small snack as well as the booster. We're looking forward to using this booster for the next couple of years, and since it's so portable, we only need to buy one and just take it everywhere we go.
One thing I should mention, I wouldn't buy this booster for a child who is overly active and doesn't like to sit still. My daughter has no problems sitting still for extended periods as long as she is occupied, but if she were the kind of kid who always has to be moving at this age, I wouldn't use this booster just yet as it does not have any safety belt to hold your child in.

I was a bit hesitant to buy this booster, although it came highly recommended. I felt like it was overpriced and essentially offered nothing...boy, was I wrong! I've been using this booster for 2 years now. It has been used by my 3.5 year old and his 2 year old brother. Both of them LOVE it. The seat is comfortable for them to sit on, unlike the hard plastic seat we had before it. It doesn't slide around on the chair, and it is SO easy to clean. I also like that it is easy to take along if we're headed to grandma's house. No extra straps, trays, or pieces to worry about! I don't have a single complaint with this seat after 2 years of use...it is well worth the money!

5.0 out of 5 stars Puts all other booster seats to shame!, May 27, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Baby Smart Cooshie Booster Seat - Blue (Baby Product)

This is the third booster seat I've bought for my now-2-year-old son, and I've finally hit upon the perfect choice. Unlike other popular booster seats, the Cooshie is soft, making dining like a big boy all the more pleasurable for my little guy. It doesn't require unwieldy straps to secure it on a regular chair and doesn't slip, thanks to suction cups and the foamy material. It's actually smaller and more portable than the other so-called portable seats (of the fold-up variety). Best of all, its use isn't restricted to dining -- we can use it to give our son a better view at theaters.
