Leachco Booty Boost - Non-Slip Booster Cushion - Purple Review

Leachco Booty Boost - Non-Slip Booster Cushion - PurpleUpdated: As I removed the cushion from my daughter's chair, I noticed the back strap holding it to the chair was already tearing away.So "Pro #1" is off the list.I'd change it down to a 1 star, but the page isn't giving me that option.

Pros (not nearly enough to outweigh the cons, but enough to make me feel bad giving it 1 star):
1) It is very nicely made.The fabric seems durable, and the seams look well done.
2) The fabric wipes off better than a cloth seat cushion.

Cons:
1) It is a quite thick booster, and not really adjustable at all.I expected to be able to pat the beads around to arrange it to the height my 2 yr old daughter would need, but there is no way to remove any of the filling, and only a tiny bit of the filling can actually be shoved out of the way due to the shape in which the cushion is sewn.When my daughter is sitting in it, she can't get her legs under the table, so she has to sit pretty far back from the table and food gets all over her lap.

2) My daughter can't climb in and out of the chair anymore.She could easily climb in and out of her high chair that strapped to the dining room chair, so it's not like she isn't capable of climbing fairly well.It's that this booster is too high, so she can't reach the back of the chair above it to grab hold, and shifts around so much that she can't get a firm surface to climb onto.Then, once she's up there, the bean bag stuffing is very lopsided and not comfortable or easy to sit on at all, and my very patient daughter ends up yelling in frustration.I'm back to having to lift her into the chair so that she plops straight down to properly situate the bean bag stuffing.I haven't had to do this in at least 4 months, and it is very annoying.

Summary:Waste of money, waste of space, waste of plastic, wish I could return it.After three days of use, I will be replacing this with one or two cheap tie-back seat pads from Wal-Mart.I should have done this in the first place (I saw a friend stack two together so that her daughter could reach the table comfortably), but I was tempted by the wipe-clean fabric and other good reviews.
