1.0 out of 5 stars Damaged my seats more than any kid could, August 25, 2010

This review is from: Kiddopotamus Elite Duomat 2 in 1 Car Seat Protector Mat (Baby Product)

I got this for my brand new car, leather seats, to protect it from my two kids, one age five, the other two. They would occasionally drop some crackers or worst case scenario juice on the seat and I didn't want all that getting ground into the seat and the crevices that I couldn't vacuum out. What I didn't expect was the sticky-seat side of the mat to melt into my leather seats and glue itself to the seat. After pulling it off there is still plastic residue all over the bottom of the seat and no cleaner I've tried will fix it. I've since taken a bath towel, cut it in half, and put each half under the seats.
Wait for a sale on bath towels and you can protect your seat for about $3 each, not whatever these cost now. Plus, you won't ruin your brand new seats.

For those who will wonder, its a Ford Fusion, black paint, black leather, in Miami, FL, so yeah, its hot, but that should have been considered when this was developed. Since thrown away.

1.0 out of 5 stars Damages leather seats, January 16, 2011

I purchased this product a year and half ago. The non-skid material at the back of the seat started to stick to the leather seats of my Infiniti. I suspect that this material deteriorates with thermal cycling. I managed to remove most of this sticky material from my leather seats but some of it remains stuck probably forever. This was a disappointment given that the product is advertised as a "Premium 2-in-1 seat Protector". For me, it's definitely not a good seat protector if you have leather seats in your car.

5.0 out of 5 stars the best I've used, June 20, 2008

Jessica S (SC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Kiddopotamus Elite Duomat 2 in 1 Car Seat Protector Mat (Baby Product)

I've had two other seat protectors, and this one is by far the best. It's somewhere between the Prince Lionheart two-piece really stiff plastic protector and the One Step Ahead one-piece really flexible protector. This one is taller than One Step Ahead's, and is the perfect material. It stays stiff, really protecting our seats, but it's not SO stiff and thick that you have a hard time getting the seat tight enough. I love that the edges to this seat are flat (as opposed to Prince Lionheart's raised edges) - it makes the footprint seem not quite so imposing. All around, I LOVE this seat, would definitely buy it again, and will recommend it to all my friends!
