Mutsy Grow Up Booster Seat Review


Brody was never one to like to be in his high chair. To be honest, I hate high chairs. While they do make a safe place for your child to be while you're cooking dinner or doing other things in the kitchen, I hate the bulkiness of it. I also hate having to clean it. All the nooks and crannies...yeah I'm not a fan. That's why I was excited to find out about the Mutsy Grow Up Booster Seat.


The Mutsy Grow Up Booster Seat is simply a booster seat that fits on your standard "grown-up" chairs. The Grow Up Booster Seat is different from your traditional booster seats because the padded seat reducer makes it more comfortable for your child. It's not that hard plastic you find with other booster seats. The flexible seat along with the base allows your baby to sit comfortably.

I was quite surprised to see how stylish and modern the Mutsy Grow Up Booster Seat was. "Modern" and "stylish" are not usually words you see describing a booster seat, but this really took the cake! In addition to looking great, the Mutsy Grow Up Booster Seat does exactly what the name implies. It grows with your child! The safety harness uses a 5-point restraint for younger children. Then, as your child grows, the lap restraint can be used all the way up to 4 years old. Once your child becomes more mobile and stretches their independence, you and your child will appreciate that the Mutsy Grow Up Booster Seat sits low on the "grown up" chair so your child will be able to get in and out with ease. Talk about a great long term investment!

The Mutsy Grow Up Booster Seat is sooo much easier to clean than the high chair! Obviously, there's no tray to clean but the chair itself is super easy! I love how you can just carry to the trash and wipe it off with a damp cloth. It's so light! Which of course makes it a great choice to take to the restaurant with you or for traveling!

The Mutsy Grow Up Booster Seat comes in four bright colors: raspberry, apple, mandarin or aqua. $59 is a great price considering the time you'll get out of it. Oh, and my readers can also get 10% their purchase by using promo code CBR10

While you're checking out the Mutsy website you should check out the Transporter stroller. It is a great pick for parents on the go! The sporty, full-size Transporter can be used in combination with a Mutsy bassinet, Graco, Peg-Perego or Maxi-Cosi car seat. The bassinet and car seat adaptor easily clicks onto the frame over the stroller seat, making it easier to switch between modes.

Additionally, the Transporter seat can easily be completely removed for a sleek look as a pram or travel system. The two front swivel wheels offer exceptional flexibility and maneuverability. The Transporter can also be folded quickly into an extremely compact form with minimal effort. The four quick-release wheels are easily removable, allowing for even greater compactness and lightness when folded. The deep and padded reclining seat and large, protective hood create a comfortable and serene environment for napping or strolling on a sunny day and a foot rest provides comfort for an older child. There is also a convenient shopping basket. Other features include height adjustable 4-position push bar and back support adjustment. It's definitely worth checking out!

There was no monetary compensation received for this review.
I received an Mutsy Grow Up Booster Seat for the sake of completing this review. Receipt of this did not sway my opinion.

Oh my gosh...what a SPace SAVER! And a perfect thing to have for at Grandma's (or any other place you might travel such as on a vacation).
I am with you on this one. Yeah...a bit pricey, but usable for so many years, too!
THanks for the head's up.
