I love table toppers. We currently live in Asia and travel all over the world. We've used them in Japan, China and in the USA. Food gets spilled off plates, dumped on tables and plopped in little kids mouths. With table toppers we KNOW that the surface they are eating off isn't filled with germs.

My daughters like to rip them off the table occasionally, but we found that the trick is to fasten the edge close to them over the edge of the table and wait to put them down until right before the food arrives, that way they are more focused on the food than the placemat.

The idea of this product is awesome but since it only has adhesive on two sides my daughter very easily figured out how to tear it off.

These work great for going out to restaurants. I used a different brand before that I liked better. The other one was heavier, thicker, so when you went to tear it off the table it came off easier and in one piece. This one, if you're not careful, will tear a bit and can be more difficult to remove, but these still work well meets the purpose!

We have gone through a few packages of the Table Toppers and we love them! Our toddler went from trying to peel them off the table to helping us stick them down....she loves to pull the paper strips off the adhesive....and she doesn't try to pull the mat off the table until she is finished eating. We finally found the Shopper Toppers at Toys R Us and I was so excited I bought two packages....and they don't work worth anything! The adhesive on those is down the sides, not across the top where it should be, to stick on the shopping cart handle....In fact we've decided that the Table Toppers will work better on the shopping cart than the ones made for the shopping cart. Also, with only a Shopper Topper in our bag while out for lunch recently, we used it on the table and it worked just as well at the ones made for the table! Well done.

These are easy to use, convenient, and make clean-ups a breeze. As for the reviewer who complained that these don't stick to tablecloths -- uh, you're worried about germs and cleanliness in restaurants with tablecloths? I've found that these adhere quite well to a variety of surfaces, and my son enjoys the designs. People frequently stop by our table to ask where we found these Table Toppers, then exclaim, "If only they'd had those when we had a baby!" You've gotta love that!

We tried these after getting one of the portable mats that didn't work out. This item too didn't work for us. It won't stick it there is a table cloth. Then 9 time out of 10 when we would get it stuck our daughter would pull it up with one hand! It really ended up being more trouble than it was worth.

We started carrying a package of cleaning wipes in her bag...we wipe down her part of the table really well and let her have at it. At 14 months she doesn't really make too much of a mess and if she does we just had an extra couple of bucks for a tip and apologize for the mess on the way out.
