About this deal
While the Turbo GO starts at 40lbs and 43″, the RightGuide can’t be used until kids are at least 50lbs – the size of an average 7 year old. That said, the lap belt fit of the RightGuide is better for skinny kids than the Turbo GO in my opinion. The Graco RightGuide is an ultra-compact low-profile booster seat intended for big kids and tweens. The RightGuide is quite a bit smaller than the Turbo GO and fits even better in a carry-on. EPS energy-absorbing foam: The foam works hard to evenly and effectively distribute impact forces in the event of a collision.
The minimum weight means that the Graco RightGuide can start to be used by an average size 7 year old. In almost all cases, this is going to be a child’s last booster seat rather than her first. The target market is tweens, and thankfully that’s who Graco shows in their marketing materials for the RightGuide. Between the Bubblebum and the Graco Turbo GO, it really depends on your child’s age/size and how your family plans to use it. You can read my in-depth Bubblebum review here. Graco Turbo GO vs Graco RightGuide Yes, I am fully aware that I own too many booster seats – especially too many folding booster seats. So be it. There are several different Graco folding booster seats to choose from and the Graco Turbo GO (full review here) has a lot going for it. How does the Graco RightGuide seat belt trainer compare to other folding booster seats? Fortunately I have plenty of options to compare it with! Graco RightGuide vs Bubblebum Steel reinforced frame: Steel reinforcement is equipped throughout the car seat for improved resilience and durability.
Size Guide
Unfortunately, the seatbelt fit isn’t nearly as reliably good as what the Graco RightGuide offers. As you saw above, my 7 year old had a great fit with the RightGuide even though she’s technically too small to use it. On the other hand, even my 9 year old couldn’t achieve a lap belt fit that I felt comfortable with using the mifold. div>
