Product Description

Color: Purple

Carpooling? Vacationing? Squeezing three kids across the backseat? This revolutionary inflatable car seat is ideal to keep on hand! It meets all U.S. and European safety standards, yet deflates to fit in a handbag. This compact, portable booster inflates in one quick minute and weighs less than 1 lb. Ideal for caregivers, taxi rides, rental cars, and more. For kids 4 years and up, from 40-100 lbs. Storage pouch and shoulder belt positioning strap included. Imported. Winner of the JPMA Innovation Award Meets tough European safety standards, even when deflated! European regulations require that child safety seats be tested in the "worst case scenario." To pass testing, the car seat was inflated, deflated, and then crash tested. The portable car seat is designed to position the vehicle's seatbelt correctly and will prevent "submarining" (i.e., slipping under the seat belt) in a crash. Invented by a Nationally Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST), who is also the mother of two Car booster seat measures 13"L x 13"W x 4 1/2"H inflated; deflates to fit in a 12"L x 6"W pouch Only for use with a three-point seat belt

Color Name:Purple
I had three 5 point harness car seats installed in the backseat of a Hyundai Sonata. I have been waiting for someone to make a booster without armrests as buckling a booster in next to a carseat is very very difficult. Not something a child could do, for sure! The BubbleBum has these great little clips that hold the booster in place and direct the seatbelt so it rests properly on the child. It is easy to inflate (just a few breaths) and straightforward to install. It can be a little tricky to get the seatbelt routed into the clips depending on how thick the webbing on your seatbelts are, but you don't have to redo the clips unless you remove the seat from the car. Once it is installed, my 6 year old can buckle and unbuckle her seatbelt with ease - even with two other 5 point harnessed carseats next to her. I needed this seat as a solution to a 3 carseats across in a sedan solution, and the BubbleBum works great for us! It is very compact and comfy.

The BubbleBum booster is super fun and lightweight, perfect for rolling up and taking on a trip. I give it 5 stars for this purpose. I would recommend it for only occasional use because my 5 year old cannot buckle himself in (you must connect the loops through both sides of the lap belt portion of the seatbelt). You must blow it up with your mouth and make sure you are using it properly, so I wouldn't recommend it for carpool use either. As with any booster, be sure to use the shoulder belt adjuster for proper fit to protect your child in the event of a crash.
We are using it to fit 3 across a rental sedan backseat on a vacation. It is rated a "best bet" for fit by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (they don't crash test them, but testing the fit, or how the shoulder belt lies along the collarbone, is a key factor in how well it will perform in a crash.) I discovered that another booster I own is "not recommended," so be sure to check on the IIHS website before you purchase any booster seat, at [....]

5.0 out of 5 stars in a word, WOW! October 25, 2011
Color Name:Purple|Amazon Verified Purchase
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 1.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
We got the Bubble Bum for our Porsche Carrera 911. It is VERY hard to find a booster that will fit in a seat that is only 13" wide. BubbleBum not only fits, my kids say it is super comfortable. As an added bonus, it's light weight enough to deflate and take on the plane for more comfortable travel on the flight, and when we rent a car abroad, we no longer have to rent overpriced, dirty, uncomfortable car seats from the rental companies. I'm buying a second BubbleBum today!

It would not be good for a very small child but we found it great for my bigger 5 and 6 yr olds to take on vacation. Easy to blow up and has them sitting up in the seatbelt better.

Great seat for bigger kids still needing a booster, but tall enough for a small lift. Because of its small size it is great for compact cars. Read more
