    Slippery

    Easy installation and durable material, but not suitable if you have leather seats. Unfortunately, I will be returning. It would be better if it had some grip underneath.

    We actually loved this product, but wanted the color black and they didn’t have it so we have to go with a different brand. We would have kept it if they had it in black. The car seat did not move and our seats were not damaged at all.

    Slides around on leather seats

    I just got this yesterday while it was on sale, but unfortunately, it’s terrible on leather seats. It slides all over the seat while driving, which makes it unsafe. I wouldn’t recommend it for use on leather upholstery. This is going back!

    Not Secured On Seat

    It looks great until you put it on the seat. There are no fastners or elastic to hold it in place. Only the headrest stays put. Cannot get into car with anything in your hands due to having to hold the cover down in order to sit on it. It shifts since it is not secured.

    Munchkin Elite Seat Guardian (but not really!)

    I received the correct box, but a different, used brand was inside. Dirty and damaged. Not what I had ordered. Very disappointing!

    Would not recommend

    I liked the idea of a thicker mat for protection, however it slid all around the seat and was unsafe for a car seat. No grips on the back or ability to tighten it enough to make it not slide around. Had to return. Got a thinner one and much happier.

    skip

    the bottom nonslip did not work at all against our leather seats and since it doesn't actually secure itself to anything, the car seat ended up sliding way too much to make it safe to use. returned the next day.

    Not safe

    Three stars because the idea is great, however, after inserting it and getting my seat checked by a Child Passenger Safety Technician (cpst), they pulled it out for being unsafe.

    Not for rotating car seats

    Really wanted this to work but this seat protector isn’t ideal for car seats that can rotate (we have the chicco rotating fit360 clear tex) as it moves your car seat off position and can be a hazard for proper car seat levels.

    Car seat slides everywhere

    Honestly the material is VERY sturdy and def won’t leave a mark on your car seat but is very very unsafe for children. I couldn’t figure out for the life of me why my child’s new car seat kept sliding around and it looked crooked, despite the fact is was placed perfectly. The sliding around is a huge issue and I likely will take it back for a refund. So disappointed in this trash.
