Customer Reviews

Great for a Roadtrip4
Bought this to use on a roadtrip for my 3 yo. He enjoyed being able to have a place to play with his trains and color. And when he didn't want it on his lap anymore, I could easily unclip it while in the driver's seat.

Probably, best option of designs thus far3
I have twin boys age 3. We're going on a long road trip and I stumbled across this product in a web search for a road trip checklist for travelers w/ small children.

Comments: it does provide a flat surface that nicely accommodates coloring, cards, play dough, sml cars and games. It is light weight & has a nice rim that surrounds 3 sides out of 4. With caution, it can accommodate a meal/snack on the go such as a sandwich and apple slices/crackers but would highly advise against liquid based foods such as soups and sauces. Warning: should a spill happen, it will end up in your child's lap (this of course is due to the 4th side with no rim around the edge. And lastly for someone considering buying this product and wondering the sturdiness of it....the entire tray could be squished up into a ball with your hands; however, it is still firm enough to accomplish the above mentioned activities. Also the sides you see hanging are merely mesh storage bags, they provide no support. And although it has a strap to go around your car seat to provide additional stability the tray does rest just above and basically on your child's lap. So the balance act is really going to be based on your child's ability to manage his leg movement. Now with my two they have not dumped anything with normal fidgeting movement but if you have an above active child, I could see this being a problem.

All and all for what's out there, it seems like a decent option for now. In my opinion, it's overpriced but that's supply & demand for ya. There's definite room for some improvement. Some have found luck with just basic breakfast-in-bed type trays that fit right in their child's car seats. Some are very inexpensive too such as the aluminum ones that have the legs that fold out. Hope this helps.

Perfect Fit, Great Product!5
We purchased this for a 12 hour drive with our 3yo son. It came yesterday and I had errands to run so we tried it out and he LOVED it! I put the strap throught the back part of our booster seat where the seatbelt goes. Then I just unclip one side to get him in and out and it's perfect. It fit's inside the armrests of his chair so if things do fall back into his chair, he can reach them. He loved it so much tha the made us take it in the house and he sat on the couch and laid it on his lap to play with cars!! Very sturdy considering the materials. Lightweight and easy to maneuver. Overall a really great product. It's not as large as I thought it'd be but it really can't be either. Over all, super super happy and very confident that this will help make our drive a little easier!
