Review: Protecting vehicle seats for 5 years now.... - We have four of these mats distributed throughout a Honda Odyssey Minivan right now. As you can tell, we love them and they work. Our oldest is 5 years old and youngest is 3 months old. All of them are holding up very well. No tears or seams coming apart. No cracking to the waterproof material, even in high stress points like where the car seats sit on the mat. Everyone of these mats that we have ordered has been brand new. We have not had a single issue with any of them. There hasn't been any harsh odors or funny smells to get over. They are well made. These mats are always catching things and protecting the seats to the van. Anything between crumbs to liquid. Our little girl fell asleep one day and had an accident. The mat contained a puddle when we got home and allowed us to clean everything up without a single drop reaching the seat to the van. The mesh storage compartments in the front of the mats are mostly for toys. Anything you put in there is going to get smashed! The kids can't help it. Their legs and feet hang out of the car seat and whatever is in these storage areas will get kicked for the duration of the ride. The seat belt paths in the mat are well placed. I move the child seats around a lot to let the kids take turns running errands with me in the truck. I'm thankful the mat isn't a pain or getting in the way when doing this. The mats don't aid in the child seat from moving around in my opinion. You child seat should be strapped in tightly with the belt system you are using. This mat doesn't aid in that with a proper installation of the seat. I'm a car seat technician in the state that I work in. I asked our car seat instructors about these mats. They said they are thin enough to not manipulate a proper installation of a child seat. Where you would have problems is if a mat is too thick and settles over time allowing the seat to be loose, that is not the case with these mats. We recommended these to everyone that has kids. It will save your vehicle's seats in so many ways. We've already seen one mat go from being under an infant seat to now a forward facing seat. That's durability that we are needing. They are well worth the price. If anything changes with these mats then I will update this review. If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
Review: Love That It Completely Covers and Protects The Back Seat of a Toyota Highlander ... - When I needed a seat protector for my granddaughter’s car seat, my daughter recommended the “Summer Infant Elite DuoMat for Car Seat, Black”. In 2011, I purchased a Prince Lionheart 2 Stage Seatsaver for my grandson’s car seat. While I liked its beige color, that particular two-piece seat protector did not provide complete coverage of the seat. In contrast, the “Summer Infant Elite DuoMat for Car Seat Black” completely covers the seat of my Toyota Highlander. Further, the pocket on the front of the DuoMat hangs over the front edge of the seat and provides additional protection to the front of the seat base. I liked the construction of the “Summer Infant Elite DuoMat for Car Seat Black”. The back, bottom, and pocket join into one continuous unit. Because you do not have to be concerned about positioning both pieces correct, that makes installation less “irritating”. A heavy-duty, twill-like tape binds the entire outer edge of the DuoMat. Strategically located fold-lines result in better fit of the DuoMat to your specific vehicle. In the event of an accident, the non-skid backing helps minimize the chance that the DuoMat will slide. I am using the “Summer Infant Elite DuoMat for Car Seat Black” with a rear-facing infant seat, so I decided to sew ties made from double-fold bias tape onto the back top-edge binding. This allowed me to secure the DuoMat’s back to the headrest posts and helped prevent the back from flopping over. Although I could have folded the DuoMat’s back down, I preferred having the entire back of my vehicle’s seat protected. It would have been nice if the manufacturer had recognized that parents/grandparents might prefer to secure the seat protector’s back and had put ties on the DuoMat. I would have liked it if I had had another color option when I purchased the DuoMat. Although black does not show the dirt, it absorbs heat and in Texas that is something to consider. Further, because my car’s interior is a light tan, if the “Summer Infant Elite DuoMat for Car Seat, Black” does stick or transfer color to the leather, it will be more noticeable. I am very pleased with the “Summer Infant Elite DuoMat for Car Seat, Black”. I would recommend it to anyone needing a car seat protector. The things I did not care for were not significant enough to warrant subtracting a star.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone found an alternative product that does not have the "melting into the leather seat" issue?**
A: Fake news, this one doesn’t melt. Have two, one in car w/black leather, one w/grey leather - no issues with either in heat/cold. Seat is strapped in tightly via Britax ClickTight system, no indents or stretch marks in leather thanks to this seat protector.

**Q: What distinguishes the "Elite" DuoMat from the regular DuoMat?**
A: Thank you for your question. The Summer Infant Elite DuoMat is 6.5" taller and uses a premium memory foam for superior protection.

**Q: could this also be used for a toddler car seat?**
A: It can, but you may have a challenge getting the back of the pad to stay up on the back seat because it's the tall back of the regular car seat that holds the pad in place. Now, because I have a head rest on my back seat I was able to rig the seat cover in a way where I hooked it to the head rest and that held it in place. I graduated from car seats about 12 years ago and I just needed something to protect my leather seats from my older "children" age 17 and 20 (:) when they are sitting in the back eating and drinking God knows what! LOL! It protects my seats from all their crumbs. But, now that I think about it, if you use a booster seat, it's possible that when your child leans against the seat, their back could very well hold it in place. It's not a flimsy mat (good quality) and very well still could stay in place without it flipping forward (also depends on the texture of your seats). I say all that, to say this, probably the best thing to do is order it and try it and if it doesn't work for you, you can always send it back. I'm very pleased with mine!  I hope this helps and doesn't sound too confusing.

**Q: Does this stay up well all the way with a rear facing seat? Or will it buckle without having the car seat secure against the entire cover?**
A: You need to fold the mat at its crease on the back section. With my rear facing seat this gave plenty of protection for my seat. When rear facing not as much of the car seat is rubbing against your car. The mat stayed in place very well, protecting underneath and at the foot area of your rear facing seat.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Size, Excellent Protection, Stay in Place
*by D***R on September 23, 2014*

We recently leased a new vehicle and wanted to add a layer of protection, so we purchased these covers. In our previous vehicle, the car seats left an imprint in the leather when tightened in place over long periods of time, which they were most of the time. There were also incidences of spilled milk, juice, and snacks, so we felt these covers would protect from that as well. We chose these covers over the other, lesser expensive, options due to their size (providing adequate coverage for larger convertible car seats), thickness (eliminating the imprint left in leather when seats are installed for long periods of time), and overall quality. The covers fit nicely in our SUV, I especially like the non-slip material on the back, keeping them in place, and the mesh pockets on the front for storage (you can never have enough). When we purchased these, they were only marginally more than the smaller options, making them a great value, but prices are subject to change as they are more expensive at the time of this review than what we paid for them. Regardless, even at their current price, I feel they are a good value compared to the other options available.
