Sunshine Kids: Monterey Booster Seat in your choice of color Giveaway!

This giveaway is now closed with 518 comments! Thank you to all who entered. Congratulations to the lucky winner ~ Alana!

If there was a booster seat that I could sit in, I would want to sit back and relax in a Monterey Booster seat from Sunshine Kids. Actually, oddly enough, I could since this phenomenal seat holds up to 120 lbs. Okay, I admit, it would look a bit odd. But really, this would be my seat of choice.

As a toddler, my daughter had a different brand booster seat that wasn't nearly as neat as this one from Sunshine Kids. Features....what features? Now that I've had the opportunity to test this one out, I realize that her old one really didn't do anything at all. Shocking, yeah. I wish I would have known about this back in the day.

We have since moved her into a simple booster seat with no back or headrest. Just a regular seat that was easier for her to get in and out of on her own, but no way to recline. However, when we travel, her body is all over the place. Poor thing, she looks like a ragdoll just waiting for the next road bump to shift her into an entirely new and uncomfortable position.

Now my daughter rides like a queen in her Monterey Booster. This is the cat's meow ladies and gents! There are a ton of really awesome features. The sides and headrest expand to fit your growing child. It's super cushy and comfy with its high back and generous padding. The fabric is very soft and high in quality. It features dual cup holders, drinks sit fully upright, and the back portion is completely removable.

You can pack this seat fully flat for easy transport. This booster is going to grow with my daughter for years to come. We'll never go to another seat again thanks to Sunshine Kids.

Here is a list of the many, many features:
  • Full child size range- Fits children 30 lbs to 120 lbs and 38" to 63" in height
  • Adjustable width- Expandable seat back width fits shoulders up to 20”
  • Adjustable height- 11 position headrest, adjusts up to 6.5" with one hand
  • Side Impact Protection with reinforced sidewalls and headrest lined with EPS foam
  • Energy absorbing AirTek™ foam provides superior cushioning and increased airflow for comfortable ride
  • Provides easy and secure LATCH attachment to vehicle even when not occupied
  • Prevents submarining through angled and reinforced seat bottom
  • Tapered seat shape- Properly fits a growing child at every stage
  • Longer seat bottom- Proper leg support with cushioned comfort
  • Can also be used as a backless booster, packs flat
  • Retractable cup holders- Extra deep to keep drinks upright
  • 2 recline positions- For comfort and to fit all vehicle seat shapes
  • Bottom rubber pads- Better grip and helps protect vehicle upholstery
We have the fun pink color and there are four others to choose from. Click here to view.

Be sure to click the "Product Demo" button on the upper left hand side here to see the seat in action! Watch how easily the seat can expand!

Yep, you want one. I can feel it. I don't blame you one bit. Sunshine Kids is going to be giving one lucky reader a Monterey Booster in the color of their choice! Wow.

Something about Sunshine Kids - their first product was born from a small but momentous family discussion following a documentary which demonstrated the consequences of improperly secured car seats in collision situations.

Something new about Sunshine Kids: In 2005, Sunshine Kids transformed the industry for a second time with the introduction of the Radian Car Seat, the first steel-reinforced folding car seat designed to make travel and storage more convenient than ever.
How awesome is that? Why don't I have a Radian car seat???

Something you didn't mention was Monterey was designed to protect a child in a side-impact crash as well as in an oblique accident.
Monterey was crash tested in accordance with newly proposed FMVSS side-impact standards. Results show
that Monterey protected the child from both intrusion and contact with rigid interior vehicle components in
a side-impact event.
