Car seat protector mats

[AnnaMarie]

Has anyone ever used one of the mats designed to protect your vehicles seat from car seats?

Brand new car. Just ordered brand new car seat.

DH wants to protect his vehicle from the seat and the child that will be in the seat.

Recommendations or warnings?

As long as it will be buckled down,why not just use a blanket underneath,or a nice cheap heavy duty horse blanket you can get at your local hardware or Tractor Supply store..

Depending on the model and style some of them don't fit all that well;

Maybe try looking online at Canadian Tire?

p.s.
For the Americans - Canadian Tire has a lot more than just tires

I can find them for sale....I cannot find very many reviews.

I use a thin blanket underneath my grandkids' car seats in my car. I throw part of it up over the back of the seat and fold the part that is on the seat itself. Has worked well for me!

Blankets don't protect from indentations or spills. (Some protectors also cause indentations.)

Sometimes I wonder about the reviews - by the way most items I've looked at on Cdn Tire do have reviews you can read, so good luck!

Yes,that is why I suggested the horse blankets,they are stiffer and heavier duty than regular ones..I keep one in my truck in case of coming on accidents where someone may need help getting out through a broken window,they are sturdy enough to cover glass without worrying about getting cut..also a good emergency blanket if you ever get stranded in freezing weather..

Has always worked for me. At least for the indentations. Have leather seats in my car and have just always used a blanket.

We've had seats damaged. Dh just got a brand new car. With the van he would have been fine.

You should do something. After several years of hauling infants and toddlers around in the backseat of my vehicle, while using CSA approved car seats, the stains left behind by those tiny wild beasts are permanent and disgusting!
