  Solvit Deluxe Pet Booster Seat By: Solvit Average Rating: 4.5 Total Reviews: 25 More Information Great for small dogs!  On: 2008-11-20It was easy to install and move from front seat to back seat. The bottom could be more solid, but not really an issue if your dog is small. My puppy loves being able to see out the window. Deluxe pet booster seat On: 2008-11-14This is perfect for my Zuchon and she is 14 lbs. We had the small one first, but she grew out of it. Now my friends will be ordering this one too! Awful Product - Waste of Money  On: 2008-11-04Solvit Deluxe Pet Booster Seat This is a terrible product. Would not rest flush against rear bench-type seat and the front collapsed when my 6 pound dog rested his front paws on it. It is also very small. I bought this because it was cheaper than the Snoozer which Ive used with my other dog for several years. I guess you get what you pay for (or less). Save your money and steer clear of this pet car seat. We love it! On: 2008-10-21My little guy just loves this booster seat! And so do I! I have bucket seats and it fits just fine. Works in the front seat or the back. Now my chi can see the world as it passes us by! The Perfect Car Seat On: 2008-10-18This car seat for small dogs is easy to install and looks great. Its the perfect size for my 7 pound [11 inch long] dog to lie down. I added a furry lap throw to make it softer and elevate the dog a little. When he is lying down he can barely reach up to the edge of the seat to rest his chin and look out. The plaid has a gold strip in it, which looks nice. I think in the description it said "fleece"; its soft, but is regular cloth. This pet booster seat is just okay  On: 2008-10-15I am glad I bought this pet booster seat, but it is not ideal for my needs. It is a little small for my dog,(a miniature dachsund big for his breed) so he can never get quite comfortable. Even though it lifts him up so he can see out the window, he still stands with his feet on the edge of the basket trying to get his nose out the window. This de-stabilizes the basket, and often causes the support pole to come out of its socket, which then pokes the dog. ALSO, it is uncomfortable to install and take out. I thought I would just be able to leave the booster seat in place in the front passenger seat, but that didnt prove practical. Installing the booster involves reaching all the way around the front seat to hook up the strap, which is a pain. But when everything is hooked up properly, the booster seat is at a nice height and relatively stable. Unfortunately, the booster seat doesnt not have any safety features for the dog. There is a strap that you can hook to the dogs collar, but that would probably choke the dog in an accident, not keep him from being flung forward. Another problem, the booster seat installs so high on the car seat that my dog cannot hop into the seat, I have to pick him up and put him in the basket. Bottom line, it is better than nothing, but could be better designed for easier installation and greater stability. Just what I needed! On: 2008-09-25I have a small cat who I have trained to ride in the car. I bought this booster seat for her since I was moving and about to drive for 3 days to our new home. There was no way I was going to put her in a cage for such a long drive. This seat worked perfectly for her! I used a harness instead of a collar, which I recommend. She did climb the back of the car seat a few times, but mostly during the trip she stayed in the basket and either looked out the window, played with her toys that I had placed in the basket for her, or slept. She really seemed to enjoy looking at the cars passing us by, and the scenery. I would recommend this booster seat to anyone with well-trained pets. I really highly recommend a harness for use with this, though. Pets CAN get out of this basket, but only enough to hang off of the side. A collar could choke them, but using a harness makes it much safer. But for someone with a hyper cat or dog, Id say stick to a back seat harness or some other alternative. This seat is for well-behaved pets. Id like to mention that the product comes turned inside out so that you can see where the holes are for assembly. I personally think it is a very high quality seat and very made well. Please read the instruction manual before sending it back and giving it a bad review. Its very simple to assemble as long as you look it over first and read the manual. Love it! On: 2008-08-27Taking my 10lb mini dachshund for a car ride is much more enjoyable with the Deluxe Pet Booster Seat.I read the reviews and I had to give it a chance.Before I bought the booster seat my dog use to whine and jump from my lap to the passengers seat while I was driving. It was stressful and I was concerned for his safety as well as mine.Now that Sonny is strapped in&secure,driving with him has been a much more pleasant experience.The first time I used the booster seat Sonny tried jumping out of the seat,which was expected.But I must say his constant whining had cut down by at least half.Now that he has ridden in his booster seat more than once he has embraced it and has stopped attempting to jump out.He loves to sit in it and look around.I love the design of the product&I love the soft lining.I went to a few local pet stores and their selection was weak.I didnt want to get Sonny a booster seat that looked like luggage.I am very pleased to have found a comfortable&stylish seat for my dog on Amazon.It was easy to assemble&is super easy to use.If you plan on using it in the backseat of your car,make sure you have head rests.My06 Mazda6 does not have backseat head rests.Thankfully I have a baby carseat hook built in to my car, therfore I hook the straps through that.I would not suggest this product for someone who has a dog larger than mine. Excellent value - if the right size On: 2008-08-08Product quality excellent. Easy to install in either front pass seat or rear seat. 2 simple belts and clasps. The clasps are quite small and pivot too easily (for man-hands.... Nice tether to secure dog collar. The built-in struts and lower back support raises the seat to the right height for your pet to see out the window. Nicely made with very good quality materials. I bought the deluxe version for the larger size. I have a Shih Tzu who is 13 lbs. He fits in perfectly, must curl up to lay down - which is great for him. But if the dog is nearing 20 lbs, Id opt for an even larger size - not sure if they actually offer a larger one. But great quality at a good price. Deluxe Pet Booster Seat On: 2008-08-04This pet booster seat is great. Easy to put together, sturdy and practical. It offers comfort, lots of room and a great view while driving for your pet. I would recommend this product. It is a value for its price. Super-functional AND attractive On: 2008-07-21Vera (my 5.5 pound Japanese Chin) loves this! Her car rides used to be spent confined to a traditional pet carrier, and now her enthusiasm to check out the world as it passes by is unmeasured. Goes well with the cars tan interior, and is really very simple to install/uninstall. There is also plenty of room for her to comfortably turn around or even lie down One word of caution: you probably should NOT put this in the back seat of your vehicle UNLESS you have a passenger who could help out in case of a poorly-timed, enthusiastic leap from the basket! There is a harness clip to keep the dog safe in case of sudden turns or stops, but if your dog jumps out, he/she will dangle (or worse) whick would be very dangerous while you are driving! Vera tried to jump out within the first five minutes, but luckily it was in the driveway. It only took once for her to learn her lesson, but I was too worried for the rest of our drive to really be able to focus on the road instead of her in the backseat: dangerous! Keep the pet seat installed up front with you, if you are in the car alone. pet booster seat is terriffic On: 2008-06-13Ive had this booster seat for my 3lb chihuahua for several weeks now, and we both, (my dog and myself) really enjoy it. Before, I had to drive with Cosmo in my lap raised up on his hind feet to see out of the window. This felt dangerous. The seat allows Cosmo to see in all directions and the strap keeps him safely inside the seat so he cant jump out the window or go flying if I brake suddenly. One suggestion though, use a harness rather than a collar to hook you dog in so they dont jump over the side and "hang". At first Cosmo would get wound up in the safety strap but has since learned how to move about without getting tangled. I recommend this seat to anyone with a small, curious dog. Be careful that you have the right sized car seat for this product. On: 2008-06-10Have the wrong-sized bucket seats, I guess. This booster seat wont lay flush against the back of car seat. This will cause the booster seat to tip over, as there nothings to support the booster. Called the company asking about return policy (had free shipping). They claimed Id have to pay the shipping charge ($20 plus) to send the product back, which is nearly half the purchase price. Not a good deal. Be sure the booster seat will fit flat inside the contours of your bucket seat. It may be well worth your time to take careful measurements. Hope this review was useful. Thanks. Dog-gone good carrier! On: 2008-05-23My little Maltese jumped happily in this right away! Ahhhh....to be safely tethered snugly in a doggy seat at last! And THE VIEW!....wow....no more jumping up and slipping at the window to get a peek at the landscape! The strap is designed so that your fur baby can safely sit or lie down; even turn around. Do not leave them attached to the tether though when you run into the store, as they could potentially hang from the cord if they tried to jump out unattended! Best car seat for small Pupz that Ive seen! Sleepy Time! On: 2008-05-21My little chihuahua loves this thing. At first shes a bit jumpy but soon enough she falls asleep in it and looks comfortable. and its perfect for my car. and when shes not in it i can use it to put thinngs in that i dont want to roll around when im driving. VERY NICE!!!!! Can't live without it. On: 2008-05-21I have to chihuahuas, one is 5lbs. the other is 3lbs. They love to travel with my husband and I but hate being in a carrier when doing so. Ever since I made this purchase, they have stopped whining in the back seat. We just drove 3 hours to my inlaws and the two of them were either sleeping or looking out the window the entire time, not a peep! Highly recommend this product. My two dogs are about 8lbs. combined and just make it sleeping. If your dog is any bigger than that, it will be tight for sleeping. I love my Booster On: 2008-05-19This is a great seat/bed for little dogs. He can see out the window and have his toys to play with. Pet Booster Seat - nice idea, not always a solution On: 2008-05-03I bought this booster seat thinking it would not only secure my dog in the car but also make her comfortable while we traveled and allow her to see out the windows. As it turns out, she didnt like the seat. I liked how easy it was to hook her in the seat and it is a quality product, I just couldnt keep her in it. It may have been that she was too big for the seat - and shes only 11# - she couldnt lay down and still look out the window since the sides were over her head. I ended up returning the car seat and got her a safety harness instead. Shes much happier with it since she can lay down on the car seat and has all the room she needs to spread out and still be safely buckled in the car. If you consider ones of these seats, consider how your dog likes to lay down - if they curl in a ball - the seat will be okay, but watch the dimensions. If they prefer to sprawl out - I wouldnt get the booster seat since it probably will not be big enough to allow them to do that. If you get the booster seat - you wont be disappointed. It didnt work for us, but it is a nice product and I would have kept it if she would have stayed in it. Great design and idea, just would like it more durable. On: 2008-02-21This was one of the better designed pet seats around. My 5.5lbs Yorkie loved it, but after 6 months, a rivet that holds one of the hooks for the top strap came out of its place. I could have fixed it if I were handy. Now I am just looking for a more durable version of the same concept. P.S. This pet seat was only used for my 5.5 lb dog, it did not carry any of the million other things we cart around on a daily basis. fun On: 2008-02-01my dashound really likes it it helps him sit up and helps keep my windows clean Designed with Comfort in Mind On: 2007-11-19I bought this online here at amazon after I returned another seat I bought locally at a big box store. Unlike the one I returned, this is clearly designed by someone who understands that even pets want to be comfortable. It is very well made, incredibly easy to assemble, and installs in seconds, securely on a seat. It is very apparent that my dog, a chihuahua/miniature pinscher mix, is comfortable and feels secure. After initially looking around she quickly curls into the soft, quilted liner (which is removable and washable) and falls asleep. I very rarely write reviews but was motivated by the quality of this product. You will not be disappointed by this attractive seat. Happy Dogs!!! On: 2007-10-02I have two little 3 lbs. chihuahuas. They always know when something is for them. As soon as they saw their new seat they became so excited. I strapped them in and off we went. They look so proud sitting up enjoying the view. And I now feel so much safer driving. I feared I would eventually have an accident due to juggling two dogs in my lap. The quality is awesome. I know I will have this seat for years to come. Thank you. My dogs have never been happier On: 2007-07-23I did not buy this item on Amazon, but rather at a local pet store (amazingly for a decent price). I have a Honda Accord, but it fits nicely on the front seat. I am owned by two Poms, a large one at 12.5 lbs and a small one at 5.5 lbs. Both fit nicely in it for short rides. If you have two small dogs (under 10 lbs youd want the larger version so they can lie down and sleep). I will eventually upgrade, but Ill keep this one for short trips. This is truly a nice set up, its trendy and actually looks cool strapped on my front seat! ;) My dogs have never been happier On: 2007-07-22I did not buy this item on Amazon, but rather at a local pet store (amazingly for a decent price).

It is a completely inferior and mismade product. I do not recommend this product to anyone.

Attaches easily to the seat and feels very stable. Little guy seems to love being able to look out the window and when he gets tired, he has enough room to curl up and take a nap. |
