Sunshine Kids Grip It Car Seat Gripper, Gray

We just purchased a 2011 Toyota Sienna and were interested in protecting the leather. This product does a great job and it is also a material that is non slip. Simple to install and delivers the protection needed with 3 car seats in there. I highly recommend it.

I'm buying a second of these for our van. I like it because it fits well, is a light color, and grips instead of sliding like a lot of cars protectors. We also never use the mesh holders like we have on one of our other car seat protectors so we don't miss that. I also wanted to comment that there is a strap that holds this up to the back of the seat of your car so it won't fall down if you just have a booster or something like that.

I am not sure at what point I had read that these mats are not a good thing... Heard they prevent the seat belt tensioner from working properly. But did a lot of research about the Grip It and also it was recommended at a local baby store that is highly regarded.

We installed our car seat base and had more than the allowed 1 inch of movement, so the store recommended this - it did eliminate the movement. As far preventing seat damage, that wasn't one of our goals (though that is often one of the pitch lines for these items).
