I currently have four children aged four and younger and the Cooshie is our favorite booster seat. It is soft and comfortable and, even with all of my oldest son's ups and downs and wiggles and squirms, it stays right where I put it. We have had our oldest Cooshie for more than a year and it is still in one piece and good shape despite my son's abuse.

The Cooshie is about the size of the traditional hard plastic booster, so you can take it with you but it's not the most convenient thing to haul around. We typically toss ours into the car when heading to a restaurant just in case there are no acceptable boosters available and only take it out if needed. The zipper case it comes in does have handles, so that makes it a bit easier.

This booster is very easy to clean. I typically whipe ours down with a damp rag each meal and take it to the sink for a thorough wash regularly. I've even been known to take a Clorox wipe to it when the kiddos have been sick in addition to the washing.

A note to consider - the rubber does have the potential to break down some varnishes and paints over time. If you are quite attached to your chairs I would recommend a nice slip cover so that the booster doesn't come in direct contact with the finish (or go the cheap route and put a piece of cardstock or posterboard against the back of the booster). The bottom of the Cooshie has a different finish and texture than the rest of the booster and I'm not certain if the bottom has the same potential to break down the finish since I have farm chairs with straw seats, so there is no finish to break down, though the Cooshie has taken some paint off of the seat backs.

My 2 1/2 year olds highchair was terrible, so I threw it out on his first b-day. This chair is great, but I dont see anything miraculous going on.

PROS-
* Very comfortable, my son always says everything should be like cooshie
* All one solid piece of foam, bo creveces to get food stuck in
* It doesnt slip due to the material, a plus for a wiggly toddler
* Sits him up high enough to eat
* Can be easily taken off, no straps and all that stuff
* Cute color, not bright and pastely
* Very light weight

CONS-
* Is not at all portable, I dont know about you but I wouldnt want to "travel" with something the size of a large platter everywhere!
* The "carry case" is cheap and really the size of a diaper bag... uhh sorry I already have one of those
* leaves his feat dangling, although this is a problem occuring in MANY booster seats

This is just a booster. I like it and I am glad I chose it but I dont really understand the amazing changes in children with a booster (not that I am denying the fact that those reviews are true) I just dont see how this cooshie could do it. My son is still fussy, and will get down when he feels like it, this comfortable booster doesnt stop him. He loves his booster and loves being a big bow v.s sitting in a highchair like his little brother

I just ordered another one for my second child. This seat is awesome. It's lightweight, easy to clean, and doesn't slip off the chair at all. My kids love it too. A must buy after the highchair is done.

The Cooshie Booster is a wonderful booster seat. It is very sturdy, comfortable, and an excellent replacement for our high chair. It is incredibly easy to clean due to its one-piece design, especially when compared to our high chair that seemed to collect food. Also, the travel bag makes it very easy to take the Cooshie out with you. My 2 year old son loves the Cooshie and carries it all around the house with him. I highly recommend this booster seat.

I ordered this last Monday...it came on Tuesday...(THANKS AMAZIN'...I mean AMAZON)! We began using it right away and have not used the highchair since! My son is 17-months old and was bucking his back and pushing up on his highchair footrest within minutes of being placed in it to eat. NO FUN!!! He now sits like a little prince for his meals! We even used it last night with our outdoor patio set. He is a VERY ACTIVE little boy, but seems just thrilled to sit in his new "big boy chair" with no hassles! I would encourage anyone considering a booster to buy this over the hard plastic models. Five stars all the way around!
