Inflatable Booster Car Seat
- Polyester
- PORTABLE AND PACKABLE | Car seats no longer have to be heavy, bulky and impractical. The hiccapop UberBoost portable car seat inflates with only a few breaths (takes less than 20 seconds), and installs easily and quickly. Deflates and rolls up tightly in its own travel bag for compact fit in suitcases, carry-ons, large purse or backpack.
- CERTIFIED SAFE FOR YOUR MOST PRECIOUS CARGO | Your child deserves a comfortable and safe car seat for those quick journeys in rental cars, taxis, Uber rides, on school trips or in car pools. Meets or exceeds all federal standards for car seat safety (FMVSS213 Federal Motor Safety Standard for USA).
- STURDY, STABLE, SECURE | Non-skid base is designed to sit firm and steady on leather, vinyl or cloth seats. Provides soothing stability while riding and limits movement in case of an accident. Gentle on your upholstery.
- PRACTICAL DIMENSIONS | Narrow yet roomy design allows you to fit 3 UberBoost inflatable car seats across the back seat of smaller vehicles, or fit 1 in between 2 traditional car seats. Perfectly accommodates large families, car poolers and busy soccer moms!
- SECURITY AND COMFORT | Buoyant and extra comfy for small bottoms. (Your little one will love the ultra cushiony design!) Positioning clips ensure that child’s belt fits properly and comfortably across the lap rather than dangerously digging into the stomach, preventing internal damage in the event of an accident.

We love this – sits well between 2 car seats or boosters if you need 3 in the back and makes for an awesome travel booster! My kids say it’s more comfortable than their regular booster. And it’s great to have on hand for extra kids you may be toting along with you. It’s actually the second one we’ve purchased so we have one for each kid when we travel. It’s also really easy to deflate and pack away again!

Good product. It could have a better air valve system. A little bit tricky to inflate and close the valve without loosing air. But it works and it is very convenient.

Gather ’round, fellow wanderers and weary travelers, for I have discovered the holy grail of portable seating solutions – the Ultraboost Inflatable Car Seat! Strap yourselves in (pun intended), because this review is about to take you on a journey filled with comfort, convenience, and a dash of inflatable magic.
Let’s kick things off with a bang – the portability factor. Picture this: you, me, and the Ultraboost Inflatable Car Seat embarking on a three-day Uber extravaganza. Gone are the days of lugging around a cumbersome bottom car seat like a pack mule with a vendetta against your back. With the Ultraboost, you’ll be traveling in style and comfort, without sacrificing an ounce of convenience.
Now, let’s talk inflation. Oh boy, where do I even begin? Inflating this bad boy is as easy as 1, 2, 3… or should I say, 3 to 4 breaths? That’s right, folks – with just a few puffs of air, you’ll have yourself a plush, comfortable car seat that’s ready to take on the world (or at least the next Uber ride). And let’s not forget about deflating – a few quick seconds and you’re ready to roll, no sweat required.
But let’s not stop there – let’s talk about comfort. This isn’t just any old inflatable seat, folks. This is the Ultraboost, the Rolls Royce of portable seating. It’s like sitting on a cloud, a fluffy marshmallow, or your grandma’s overstuffed armchair – pick your metaphor, because they all apply. Trust me, your derrière will thank you.
And the best part? This thing is durable. I’m talking tougher than a grizzled cowboy riding into the sunset. It can handle bumps, jolts, and the occasional spillage like a champ. Plus, it’s easy to clean – just a quick wipe-down and you’re good to go.
If you’re in the market for a portable car seat that’s as convenient as it is comfortable, look no further than the Ultraboost Inflatable Car Seat. It’s a game-changer, a lifesaver, and a must-have for any traveler on the go. Trust me, once you try it, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it. Thanks, Ultraboost, for revolutionizing the way we travel – one inflatable seat at a time!

Great value for your money. Excellent for rides using Uber or Lyft. My son fits comfortably in it so padding is good. Easy to install and deflated. I really like the non slip bottom so it stays in place. Love that it comes with a storage bag as well. Overall great quality.

Easy to transport, compact, lightweight, nice color. Fit in my kids’ backpack to carry themselves through airport. Belt path a little tricky for my two kids to navigate independently themselves (aged 6 and 9).

Works great for travel, small, easy to store and fast to inflate. We used them on 6+ kids. They thought they were comfortable and had no complaints.

This car seat is perfect to use when traveling. My kids have used these seats since they were 5 and are now 8. It makes traveling so easy as the seats inflate and deflate quickly. They are also very compact and easy to pack. The seats did get a hole that I was unable to patch after 3 years or use. When I contacted the company they were very responsive and quick to send me a replacement. I would highly recommend this product!
Danielle –
This thing is amazing, I was a bit skeptical but I am so glad I purchased this.
Rolled up it fits in my purse. It takes an adult two or three breaths to inflate it in just seconds
Place the seat down make sure it’s pushed all the way against the seat, stick child on seat and buckle them as you would an adult. No fiddly troublesome latch connectors to mess with.
Only extra thing you have to do is slide the seat belt on either side of the hips into the metal connectors, only takes a few seconds for each side. Don’t need to do any adjusting for this.
Finally, if they need it if the top belt is too high like against their face, you use the shoulder clip. You use a slipknot connection to secure it on the side where the seat belt is extending from, and clip it to make sure the high part of the torso belt is placed snugly against their collarbone. If it’s against their neck or higher, you NEED to use this clip for safety reasons
Bonus tip, if you were like me you want to save a few seconds getting into rideshare and have it blown up already while waiting to be picked up. In the morning I’m carrying multiple bags including my son’s backpack so I inflate it, put and put the carrying case and patch repair kit in my purse. To be able to swing it over my shoulder to have my hands free, I attach the shoulder adjustment clip the fabric loop right next to it so that it essentially forms a makeshift temporary strap like a shoulder purse. If you extend the shoulder clip belt all the way out and do the same thing by clipping it on to form a strap, you would have enough length to even carry it crossbody or backpack style.
All in all I absolutely love this thing. Even with my first time using it, it took no longer than 45 seconds to set it up and adjust the shoulder strap to fit my son. Second time using it, it took less than 30 seconds.
I have a 4-year-old who meets the minimum legal and safety requirements for this product. He weighs 42 lbs and 43 inches tall, the seat works perfectly for his size. He is happy because he feels like a big boy thrilled to have a break from his rear-facing seat
However take note this important part regarding safety. The only time I am ever using this is when I will be seated right next to my son while using Uber or Lyft, to be able to him and fix the belt if he were to try to mess with it which would be incredibly dangerous.
Just because your child needs the height and weight requirements definitely does not mean they are ready for a backless booster. These type of products are not usually recommended for young children because of maturity level. It’s only safe if all the straps and everything stay in place, and the child isn’t wiggling and moving around for touching/moving/pulling at the straps.
Unless your child is very mature and you trust them 100 percent they won’t touch the seatbelt, get something different or only get this if you will be right next to them watching all the time like I do. Most toddlers should not be trusted to be in the backseat alone with a backless booster. They often will put their arms over the chest strap which will put their life at danger if they were in an accident
Also remember the lap belt should not be against their stomach. To be certain that it’s properly fitted, it needs to be flat against the very tops of their thighs. Which is why it’s called a lap belt and not a hip or stomach belt 🙂
Here’s a photo of my son sitting in his new seat for the very first time while taking a short 2 mile Lyft to school. He was a bit confused but now I believe he loves it, as it seems much more comfortable than a car seat!
To deflate you just kind of poke your finger in the air valve to break the seal, and roll It up from the bottom. Deflates and is back in the bag in seconds. You can store the manual inside the case but I don’t think that’s necessary as it’s so simple.
Keep the repair kit with you at all times just in the unlikely event it starts leaking. And finally, a last piece of advice! Be very careful when zipping the cover up after you inflate it. Be careful that the the zipper teeth don’t catch the white inflatable part or you may risk a puncture
All in all, am extremely pleased and this product has exceeded my expectations. You definitely would not recommend it as a booster seat to be used all the time. You should always rear face your young child until they max out the seat for switching to forward facing, and max out that before switching to a booster.. preferably a high back one.
The only reason I would ever recommend something like this is for maybe a spare extra seat that is ultimately used, or something that you need for travel like ride sharing airplanes and other public transport.
As long as it’s properly positioned they will be much safer, however a 5-point harness car seat is superior to anything else. Parents reading this, PLEASE don’t consider switching to a backless booster once your young kid meets the minimum requirements. Just because it’s legal does not mean it’s back best practice and safe.
The only reason my son is using this, is because I cannot realistically carry and install our heavy car seat every morning for our short Uber and Lyft rides.
Hope my feedback helps someone!

We’ve used this seat 8 times on uber rides while on a vacation. It is fairly easy to inflate and deflate, fits in our backpack, and is comfy for our son to sit on. It doesn’t slide around on the seat because of some rubber dots on the bottom (curious to see how these hold up over time). I don’t feel like it’s particularly secure, because our 4 year old son frequently unclips the shoulder strap holder and just plays with the clip like a toy. So the product basically doesn’t work like it’s supposed to, because it’s too easy to unclip that part. Other kids may not be able to do that or be interested in unclipping it, so that’s why I still give this 4 stars since it’s a great product otherwise

I’m really impressed with this inflatable booster seat! It’s incredibly easy to use — it inflates so easily, making it super convenient. I love how portable it is, which makes it perfect for travel.
On top of that, the customer service is excellent. When one of the seats developed a hole, I reached out to the company. Thanks to their lifetime warranty, they replaced the inner lining right away with no hassle and no questions asked.
Overall, this is a great product backed by even better service. I would definitely recommend it!

Great for traveling. Instead of bringing or renting shady ones bringing this made the trip much more hassle free. the seat deflates and fits in any backpack\carryon easily. The installation is easy although inflating it can be a bit tricky but not unmanageable.
Babyz Corner Customer –
We love the booster for traveling or when we need a spare booster for a friend. It is easy to blow up and deflates quickly. It’s light and small enough to pop into a tote. We have tried a different blow up booster but this is way better quality and doesn’t slip around.I’m not sure if I would recommend this to be your main booster seat. We did finally get a small hole after a few years of use and the Hiccapop customer service is amazing. They responded quickly and are sending us a replacement as we speak. There is a lifetime warranty and I appreciate that they stand behind their product!

How did I not know about this sooner?! As a family that travels, this thing is great! Super easy to inflate and deflate. Folds together fairly small enough to stick it in a small bag so it’s not a convenience to carry around. In fact I used it for the first time taking my daughter to her first concert. We took an uber versus parking downtown and it was so convenient. It seems very sturdy like it’s going to hold up for a while too!

I found it difficult to use the inflation “nipple” because it isn’t a standard inflation nipple – more like a hole with nothing to seal your lips around.
HOWEVER, my grandson loved the booster seat because it was much more comfortable than the standard style boosters in his parents’ cars.
Meryl Bradley –
I bought this for travel as I got tired of lugging larger booster seats via air travel. I hate gate checking regular booster seats and waiting for them in oversize baggage and they are bulky if you fly on a foreign airline that sometimes charges to check booster seats. I was a bit skeptical of the great reviews as I’ve used many types of car seats and boosters having a 6 and 8 year old. Turns out, this is a great product. It seems really well made and has an inflatable core with a thick nylon mesh fabric over it. There is an easy to use plastic hinged flap with a valve which is how you inflate it, which is located on the front edge of the seat, covered by a zipper. I actually was amazed at how quickly you can inflate this with just your breath. Just a few breaths and it’s full and ready to use. When you want to deflate it, you open the plastic air flap, and just push your finger on the rubber valve inside and it deflates also in seconds. The valve is NOT like that of a pool floaty, and is actually super easy to use. I used this traveling around Mexico in taxis with my 6 year old, and it easily rolls up and fits in a small backpack when not in use. It’s easy to threat the seat belts through the metal guides on the edges of the seat, and I did not need to use the shoulder strap height adjuster as my son was tall enough to not need it. I wish I would have bought this years ago for travel!

We took our then 6-year-old on a big international trip to Southeast Asia, and let me tell you, this hiccapop UberBoost inflatable booster seat was an absolute lifesaver. Navigating different transportation options in a foreign country can be tricky, especially with a kid, and lugging a bulky car seat around was just not an option.
This thing is genius! It inflates in seconds, and deflates just as quickly, rolling up super small. We packed it in our backpack, and it took up almost no space. It was perfect for taxis, ride-shares, and even those random car rides we needed to take.
Safety was my biggest concern, of course, but it’s certified safe and felt really sturdy. The non-skid base kept it in place, and the positioning clips ensured the seatbelt fit properly. My son said it was super comfy, which is a huge bonus on long rides.
Honestly, it took a lot of stress out of our travel days. No more worrying about car seat availability or safety. It was so easy to use, and it gave us peace of mind knowing our son was secure.
If you’re planning any kind of travel with a young child, especially internationally, this inflatable booster seat is a must-have. It’s portable, safe, and comfortable – everything you could ask for. 5 stars, and a big thank you to hiccapop for making our trip so much easier!

Great for traveling. Instead of bringing or renting shady ones bringing this made the trip much more hassle free. the seat deflates and fits in any backpack\carryon easily. The installation is easy although inflating it can be a bit tricky but not unmanageable.

We love the booster for traveling or when we need a spare booster for a friend. It is easy to blow up and deflates quickly. It’s light and small enough to pop into a tote. We have tried a different blow up booster but this is way better quality and doesn’t slip around.I’m not sure if I would recommend this to be your main booster seat. We did finally get a small hole after a few years of use and the Hiccapop customer service is amazing. They responded quickly and are sending us a replacement as we speak. There is a lifetime warranty and I appreciate that they stand behind their product!

Easy to transport, compact, lightweight, nice color. Fit in my kids’ backpack to carry themselves through airport. Belt path a little tricky for my two kids to navigate independently themselves (aged 6 and 9).

We love this – sits well between 2 car seats or boosters if you need 3 in the back and makes for an awesome travel booster! My kids say it’s more comfortable than their regular booster. And it’s great to have on hand for extra kids you may be toting along with you. It’s actually the second one we’ve purchased so we have one for each kid when we travel. It’s also really easy to deflate and pack away again!

I purchased both for my two toddlers, and have used them extensively for numerous car trips in a wide range of vehicles.
Price/Value: Tie
Both are priced around $35-40, and each contains a seat, carry bag and manual. Both have lifetime satisfaction guarantees.
Materials and Build: hiccapop
Both booster seats use a drawstring bag for storage, with a spring-loaded cord lock. I prefer the smaller, stretchy fabric BubbleBum bag, whereas the hiccapop bag is unnecessarily large, but is made of a water-resistant nylon which will probably last longer. Both seats have nice fabric covers that are well made, and seem durable, and come in a few color options. The hiccapop’s cover is removable (with a zipper) and is machine washable, whereas the BubbleBum is surface clean only and should not be removed (according to the manual). The BubbleBum advertises as having a safety and stability system built in, which consists of memory foam and padding over the air chamber, with a reinforced harness around the cover. Apparently this stabilizes movement and keeps its structural integrity, and there is probably some validity to those claims. The hiccapop is just an air bladder inside the cover. That said, the hiccapop’s underside is flat, with a non-skid fabric (more on that later) whereas the BubbleBum’s is a smooth fabric which also has a lot of straps that make it harder to place perfectly flat on a seat. For the seatbelt clips, the BubbleBum uses toughened polymer (plastic), and hiccapop uses coated metal for the lap belt and polymer for the shoulder belt (incidentally, BubbleBum says metal can bend, and hiccapop implies that plastic is not as durable). I don’t think it makes much of a difference safety-wise, but I slightly prefer the metal on the hiccapop (which is used for car seatbelts, even when covered in plastic), even if it adds a bit more weight (1.3lbs vs. <1lb).
Ease of Setup and Installation: Tie
Both booster seats have an inflation valve to inflate to size. The BubbleBum has an external screw valve at the back of the seat. It’s very easy and intuitive to open and close, and to wrap your lips around when inflating. But it’s hard to retain the air when closing the valve after inflation. Also, the valve protrudes from the seat, which can be more uncomfortable for the child if shifting around, and can leave a temporary mark on the upholstery. The hiccapop has a flat valve with a flap under the fabric cover at the front. It’s more fiddly to open and close the flap, and a bit more cumbersome to put your mouth around to inflate. It still inflates quickly, and holds the air in while taking a breath, however it does require that you need to stick your finger into the valve to get all the air out when deflating. Being under the cover means it’s more protected, but you have to open and close the zipper.
To install, both seats are placed directly on the car seat. With the child then sitting on the seat, the seatbelt comes across the child’s lap, and is clipped into the belt loops on each side of the booster. Then the positioning clip attaches to the shoulder belt behind the child’s shoulder. On the BubbleBum, the shoulder belt positioning clip can slide from one side of the seat to the other along a strap underneath, which is helpful when installing or moving in a new vehicle, especially rideshares and taxis. But the clip is just a plastic loop that I found to slide around on the belt, and can sometimes slide off a fidgety kid’s shoulder. On the hiccapop, you have to attach the shoulder belt positioning clip on a loop on the left or right side of the seat, which takes a bit more time if you have to change seats. But the clip actually snaps closed and secures firmly onto the shoulder belt, keeping it in place.
Uninstalling is to do the reverse, and is quick and easy for both. Also, both designs allow you to slip the user manual inside the cover for storage on the go.
Comfort: hiccapop
The hiccapop seat is about 20% larger, and has side bolsters which provide more support. With the extra size, this is equivalent to the additional weight and volume of a medium-sized apple, which may be important for some. The BubbleBum has memory foam and padding, but from a comfort standpoint, it doesn’t feel appreciably better, at least according to my kids who have used them extensively. Also, the hiccapop has a grippy texture on the bottom which prevents it from sliding around. For slightly longer trips, this is important to stop it from moving out of position and becoming uncomfortable to sit on. The hiccapop advertises this as an important feature (twice, in fact), and until I saw it in action I didn’t fully appreciate how important it was.
Safety: Tie
Both meet or exceed federal standards for car seat safety. The BubbleBum advertises as also meeting rollover standards, but I believe this is more a matter of actually having the test done, rather than not potentially applying to other booster seats. After all, most seats are similarly minimal in design. But it does give peace of mind knowing it was tested. As indicated above, the BubbleBum has padding and reinforcements for safety and stability, but that’s only as good as the when the seat stays in place. The fact that the hiccapop stays in place more easily, and secures better at the shoulder, gives me more assurance that it will be used as designed.
Conclusion: hiccapop
To be honest, I like both seats and will continue to use them. Both are safe and fairly easy to use. I slightly prefer hiccapop’s larger size, side bolsters, washable cover with the non-slip underside material, and better shoulder belt positioning clip. If I were to be nit-picky, I wish the carrying bag were more streamlined, and that it could incorporate memory foam for stability like the BubbleBum.

We bought this booster car seat because whenever we travel—or even when renting a car—we always had to rent a car seat separately for our son, which was inconvenient and pricey. This booster has been an absolute game-changer! It’s super compact, easy to inflate, and lightweight, which makes it perfect for travel. It fits in a backpack or carry-on, and we can set it up in seconds when we arrive. The narrow design fits well in most cars, and it feels safe and sturdy once inflated. Our son loves it and finds it comfortable, and we love the freedom it gives us to skip the rental seat hassle. If you’re a parent who travels often, this is 100% worth it.

Hiccapop does it again! These are way more convenient than they have any right to be. My twin girls love them when we travel, and it’s so much easier than lugging around plastic booster seats. They are really easy to inflate as well as to air down and roll up to stow. They tuck away tight, and are light, which is super important when carrying two of everything. We’ve taken these on several international trips without any issues, hopping in and out of cabs and rental cars. Very durable, and super quick to get the girls latched in properly. Highly reccomend.

My daughter is attends a private school that requires her to be picked up and dropped off via a transportation van, instead of a school bus. Because the drivers and vans alternate, she has to keep her booster seat with her at school. Lugging around a “typical” booster, even after switching to backless, is cumbersome – especially for a tiny 7 year old!
The hiccappop UberBoost inflatable booster seemed like such a perfect solution that initially I felt like it was almost too good to be true. I did a ton of research to assure myself that it was a legitimate, safe product, and finally purchased one last weekend. It arrived overnight, and we were immediately able to put it to the test, as we were going to visit family over an hour away.
It was simple to inflate, and is placed in the backseat of the vehicle like any other booster. After my daughter sat onto the UberBoost, I fed the lap part of the seatbelt through the guides on the left and right of the booster seat, and then used the shoulder belt adjustment strap to keep the shoulder belt away from my daughter’s face and neck, and into correct placement over her shoulder.
The adjustment strap was the only slightly confusing part of installing the seat – one side of the strap needs to be secured via a tight slip knot around one of the back loops of the booster seat. It took me a minute to realize that I had to use the loop located on the same side as where the child is sitting. So, if your child is seated on the right side of the car, it would be knotted through the right loop, if they’re seated on the left side of the car, it would be knotted through the left loop.
Once the adjustment strap loop is secured to the seat, you bring the other end of the strap up and attach the plastic buckle to the seatbelt, adjusting the clip/belt downwards, and firmly snap the buckle closed around the seatbelt.
It was absolutely simple, and according to my daughter, extremely comfortable, “Like sitting on air..get it, Mom? Cuz you used air to blow it up?” We were traveling via Uber, so I was able to sit next to her in the backseat and observe. The UberBoost performs exactly like any other booster seat, it’s just more compact and lightweight.
We’ve only had it for a week now, but she’s used it to travel over the weekend (and hour ride each way) and to and from school. She loves that she can deflate her seat upon arriving at school and keep it tucked away in her backpack until the end of the school day. Then it’s simple to reinflate to use for the ride home.
This is an absolutely wonderful product. It’s safe, easy to use and is a perfect solution for anyone who uses multiple vehicles.

We used these while traveling this summer. I was anxious about using an inflatable anything for auto safety for my kids but they were actually very good quality, packed up small (my 6 year old twins kept them in their backpacks without complaint that they were “too heavy” as we flew). They were comfortable and easy to install and remove from our various rental cars.

We purchased this travel booster a few years ago and it has served us well. I did a lot of research before deciding and we have been happy until recently. We were getting ready for a trip and realized we had a slow leak. I assumed it was out of warranty so I looked to buy another. I went back and forth on the two major brands but stuck with the hiccup. I looked on the website to see if there was a replacement insert I could purchase. I couldn’t find one but realized there is a lifetime warranty. So I reached out to see if it was covered. It was! The process was easy and straightforward. They were very responsive and got us the insert before our trip. I am thrilled with this company and the performance of the booster. It’s comfortable and my daughter never complains at all using it. If you are going back and forth take it from someone that has had it for several years and has used it on multiple trips. Best purchase ever!!! Buy it.

Super easy to travel with. I bought two and we used them for a 10 day trip. Inflate in 30 seconds or less with minimal effort. Great just to have in case I need to take one of kiddos friends somewhere. I keep one in my trunk for that reason. Highly recommend!

I love the fact it is very easy to bring on travel for my baby girl. She feels comfortable sitting for long time in it. Very easy to wash and clean as well. I took this to 12 countries overseas and brought it on Uber and lyft rides many times with no issues. Few months ago it had a micro tear after using it many times and I had inquired for warranty. The customer service was very helpful. Very quick response and easy replacement process for the inner part of the booster seat. Definitely a great experience from their company.

Terrific little booster seat for fitting in 3 babes in the back!

The hiccapop UberBoost Inflatable Booster Car Seat is convenient for travel, as it inflates and deflates easily, making it lightweight and portable. However, it’s not very comfortable for my 3.5-year-old. It lacks proper support and is essentially just a cushion to raise the child for the seatbelt, but doesn’t offer much more than that.

My son fell over the first corner we took, by the end of the first drive across town he hated it and so did we

I’ve always said that a product is a good as its support and hiccapop is exactly that! I reached out on a Sunday about the inner bladder leaking air due to a separation of the seam and the next morning I had an email in my inbox with the steps on how to get it replaced. I especially appreciated their humorous approach; everyone seems to uptight now-a-days.Any who, replacement is enroute. I’m a happy dude.

Pros: Convenient for travel. Fits in luggage. Comes with a carrying case. Lightweight. Easy and fast to inflate, as well as to deflate. Bladder inside feels durable. It came w/ a patch kit as well. Outer cover is removable and can be thrown in the wash. Doesn’t take up as much space as a regular booster seat does.
Cons: So far nothing yet.

I purchased the hiccapop UberBoost inflatable car seat for my daughter, and it has been a game-changer! It’s incredibly lightweight, easy to inflate, and takes just seconds to set up. The compact design makes it perfect for travel, and it fits nicely in my carry-on. Most importantly, it meets all safety standards, so I feel confident knowing my daughter is safe and comfortable. The non-skid base keeps it stable, and the seatbelt positioning clips are a great added feature. Highly recommend for parents on the go!

These are perfect for travel. I have two kids who need boosters and we travel often. They are compact and fit in the carry on bag for our flights and then easily inflate once we arrive. Great quality.
BC Customer –
Kids 6 and 8 were comfortable , secure, stable and seemed very safe. Loved how easy to move between cars, and fit beautifully in a not very roomy back seat of a Subaru Legacy wagon with three across, including a narrow regular car seat. Summer with temps in low 100’s, so just to be safe, I had the kids let a little air out when parked outside, and they were great at reinflating independently each time. They needed help buckling and getting strap in second white buckle. Worked great! So light and portable, but very well made and strong. Love the no-slip bottom and the bucket seat-type shape that made it such a comfortable ride for them.

As a parent who is always going on airplanes I was constantly frustrated with lugging around a bulky booster seat. That all changed when I found the hiccapop UberBoost Inflatable Booster Car Seat! Here’s why I love it:
Super Portable: This booster seat is a lifesaver! It inflates in seconds (seriously, just a few breaths!) and deflates just as easily. It folds up into a compact size that fits perfectly in a backpack or suitcase.
Safe and Secure: Despite being inflatable, the UberBoost is certified safe and uses high-quality materials. It has a rigid base, steel belt loops, and a no-skid silicone bottom to keep my child secure during rides.
Comfortable for Kids: My daughter says this booster is comfortable for long rides and had no complaints.
Easy to Clean: The removable cover makes cleaning up spills and crumbs a breeze.
Overall, the hiccapop UberBoost Inflatable Booster Car Seat is a fantastic choice for parents who are always on the go. It’s portable, safe, and easy to use.

We were so happy to discover this inflatable booster seat before a recent trip. It works great. Super easy and quick to inflate (10 seconds) and to deflate (10 seconds), and it packs super small when deflated. It is amazing for travel. Don’t hesitate, buy it!
Abigail Lee –
Was great! Used on a trip where we didn’t rent a car and needed a booster seat for taxis from airport and other locations. Easy to install, good quality, was easy to correctly position seatbelt with the clip on 47 inch tall child. Easy deflate at location and toss in backpack to walk around before next ride.
