THE BEST
I wish I would have found this a couple years ago. It’s exactly what we needed. Tried booster but he couldn’t get in it by himself. Tried the elevated cushion but it slid all over and we spent all dinner telling him to sit still. Price seems steep but it’s totally worth it. I see us using for a couple years and maybe again later for his little brother later ! Hope it lasts !

A Must HAVE!!!!
I held off ordering this for a whole year! Why? I came across it searching for booster chair options for my 18-24month old at the time...I finally bought it last week and it arrived yesterday. This is a must buy. I wish I had bought it a long time ago. If you've got a kid who doesn't like sitting in their high chair anymore...this is great. A friend saw it being used in my house and said she swears it was one of the best house-hold items she's ever bought.
And for restaurants I found a waterproof seat pad on amazon. If you're a mother who's always looking for ways to improve your family's life this is pretty neat. As you can see, my soon to be 3yr old is having a blast with it. Before, she would sit at a smaller plastic table on her own, and now she's eager to climb up and sit at the dining table with us.

Cheaper than a new chair and so much better.
Parenting is a big experiment for my wife and I. She is in the medical profession and I am a software engineer.
We had a seat that hung from the table and it worked great for a while. Our 2 year old was in the seat with her legs through holes and she was enclosed on all sides and she was strapped in with a belt.
The problem with all of this is that it had the opposite effect that we wanted. She would squirm, pull her feet out of the holes and put them on the table. She would lean back, lean to the side, shimmy out of the waist belt and stand up, etc.
I told my wife we should just find a chair that was 22-24 inches high and that way we could just sit her in the chair. Our theory was that if she was just sitting on a chair she wouldn’t be safe to squirm around and lean to the back and sides because she would fall.
The problem is that NO ONE makes that height of chair. They are all either 18 inches or “counter-height”. I found 1 chair and it was made of crystal plastic and it was $200!
I eventually found the Kaboost so i ordered one. My worries were, 1.) will it fit the chair? and 2.) will it be more wobbly?
Turns out that it fits ALL of our chairs. And contrary to common sense it actually makes the chair sturdier through what I think is a combination of weight and a few inches wider base.
One thing I was pleasantly surprised about was that it stays put on the chair. You can lift the chair out of the way and it stays right there.
My daughter fell out of the chair the first day because she was screwing around. So far it’s been about 2 weeks and she has not fallen a second time.
No more squirming, no more feet on the table, it’s been wonderful. Thank you!

Was looking for a cushion seat booster for my almost 5 yr old who is on the small side, and just needs a slight boost at the kitchen counter and kitchen table when doing schoolwork/crafts. I almost ordered the foam/stump type, but then saw Kaboost and realized this was the exact solution I needed. It was as easy as the video looks to put on the bottom of the chair. We tried it on our barstool, and kitchen chair. My son was excited, he thought it was cool and felt more like a "big boy". Because it boosted him up a little, He is 'over' the counter/table more and can write/draw, and eat easier. We're now using it under his desk chair at his new desk (excuse the mess, getting this area set up) It's very stable, doesn't wobble - we will most likely get another one soon. I really like the fact that it has 2 height levels (just flip over for a shorter/longer boost). I only wish we knew about this for my first child - every parent of a young one should get this!

I LOVE the Kaboost Booster. My daughter is almost 2 and was starting to protest her highchair, and eating in general. We decided it was time to treat her to a big girl chair and hope that making her feel more "like mommy and daddy" at the table would help her want to eat more and be more excited for meals. I didn't want just a booster for her, because that's still something she has to be tied into. I was afraid she'd still hate to be buckled and protest or give up on eating sooner than being full because she was uncomfortable. The Kaboost allows her to sit in a big girl chair, in the ACTUAL chair. She LOVES it and our theory worked. Now she's excited about dinner and sitting in "a mommy chair" with us both. She has more freedom to move around in a real chair and is much more relaxed and takes her time eating and her appetite is back in action.
Also good to note: We have antique chairs that we refurbished. The feet are rounded and are wide set compared to the chairs you buy these days. But the product still fit on it perfectly and securely. It's incredibly non-slip.

this thing is awesome
LOVE this I bought three for the kids but I'm buying another one because I'm short and I love the height. The pictures show one without, one with the tallest height adjustment and the other with the shorter height adjustment (doesn't seem like too much a difference but there is)
