SafeFit Kick Mats 2-Pack in Black

The mats come with two elastic bands, top one goes around the head restraint, and the bottom one is supposed to go around the car seat back. The top one is too long, whereas the bottom one is too short meaning it can never fit a reasonable car seat. I had to tuck it in the seatback pocket almost defeating the purpose of a kick mat.

Let me start with the fact that these are very well made, and the fabric is nice. IF these work for your car, I would recommend them. But the versatility of the product makes me have to put it down to a two (possibly even a one).

This fabric has an elastic band that slides over the seat (Elastic strap is on the driver's side of the seat). At the top of the seat it has a velcro strap that goes around the head rest.

These will NOT work if your seat belt is connected to your seat. That was the case with my Suburban. My parent's GMC Acadia also have the same type of seat. The elastic strap slips over the seat belt, leaving it unable to be pulled out.

These will also NOT work if you have a nice lumbar support at the bottom of the seat. This was the case with our Jeep. The seat was too thick for the strap to work. Once the elastic was pulled down it protruded and actually bothered me when I sat in the seat.

So after reading all the other reviews about them being made cheaply and not fitting over the car seats, I ordered them anyway! I am SO HAPPY that I ignored the reviews and got them! I have a 2010 Chevy Tahoe LTZ and they fit perfectly over my seat. However, I can see how they would rip if you pull on them too hard when you are slipping them over the seat. I just did it gently and worked each side until it went all the way down. The reviews are right...the tops are a little loose around the head rest but if you put the head rest down you will never notice. You get 2 of these for 11 dollars so really how can you go wrong!! I would definately recommend these to anyone with little kids in the back seat!
