Munchkin Brica Elite Seat Guardian Car Seat Protector, Baby/Toddler/Child, Dark Grey

Ive gone through several seat protectors and this is the best yet. The kick flap does a great job of protecting the front edge of the seat from my front-facing daughters shoes. The cutouts for the seat anchors make for a very easy carseat installation. The material holds water, and the ridge helps contain spills that leak through the carseat. Now for the reason that I didnt give 5 stars: My seats still have permanent carseat dents! The material is thick & pretty rigid, and the plastic supports do help with keeping the underside from making sharp dents in your seats... BUT the plastic supports end up doing as much damage as the underside of the carseat would have done! They arent flush with the bottom of the protector, and they have sharp edges. Really, these have been excellent. Until someone makes a seat protector with a properly rigid bottom, this is probably your best bet!

Order was processed and arrived quickly. This is a great design for a small vehicle (think Kia Soul small). Easy to install. Love the screen embedded which is placed between the two front seats, so we can see and interact with our pet.

I initially thought I was buying the same protector I had in the past buuut... This one is different. I had my doubts because it slid around easily but once you put the weight of the car seat, even with trying to shake it, it stays in place.

I read the positive reviews on this and I can agree. Our Britax car seat left creases in the leather of our seats, so we gave this a try. It allowed the leather to heal as I had hoped. Whenever I remove our car seat I use leather cleaner and conditioner to keep them soft, so that might also attribute. As far as the Britax Warranty goes, I dont understand what they would warranty and what that would have to do with whats under the car seat or how they would even know. Britax is the company that suggests using a pool noodle to level out the child seat, so what would a mat differ, Britax SELLS the same thing, except its inadequate for seat protection. Some people dont even understand how to install a car seat or fit their child in it, so Im not going to rely to heavily on the internetz for all of my advice. I will say Im glad I did for this product. Thank You to all of the positive reviewers.

You have kids in car seats? Then get these!! You will not regret it!!

Amazing for toddlers, but pretty big in size. We have to shift this and lift it up in order to buckle the seat belt. Good that it covers a large surface.

I have these to go under all 3 of my children’s car seats. I love that they protect the leather! I did not have them in my last car and you could see the grooves in the leather seats the day that I sold it so they were a must for my new car. Superior to other brands. My ONLY complaint and reason for 4 stars is that they are HUGE. I drive a Ford Expedition EL and they definitely cover ever single square inch of the seat. Not a big deal for my younger two who are still in a 5 point harness, but kind of a pain for my son who is in a high back booster using the actual seatbelt since these seat guardians block the buckle. Not sure how these would possibly fit in a smaller car.

I have an older van with cloth seats so I really don’t care about the pad making marks on my seat lol. I think kids do a lot more damage to a vehicles interior than a pad…. Anyway. I recently detailed my cozy old van and wanted to protect the cloth from wet, muddy shoes and spilled snacks being caked into the seat. It’s great! Feels very sturdy, I like that it’s crash tested, it does exactly what I need it to do. Maybe my van can stay a little nicer now for a little longer.

This is a nice protector. Its pliable enough that it conforms to the seat for the baby seat can fit snugly, but sturdy enough that I dont think the baby seat will leave marks in my leather car seats. A lot of people are complaining about the straps not being big enough to go around the headrests. 2 things. First, if you are using this with a forward facing seat this is not a big deal whatsoever. The car seat will hold the back of the BRICA in place firmly. There is no need to strap it in behind the headrest. Second, if you really need the straps and need to lengthen them you can easily find clips that will fit the BRICA ones and an extension strap in any outdoor/hiking store. They are a standard size clip. UPDATE AFTER MONTHS OF USE After a few months of regular use this is holding up very well. The BRICA still looks brand new. My car is well protected from the seat. I continue to be very happy with this purchase and highly recommend it to others. I recently took the car seat out to clean it and the Brica looks brand new. The leather seats in my car show no signs of indentations, stains, crumbs, or anything else. This product has proved to be well worth every penny and is highly recommended.

Went with an off brand originally bc this was out of stock… and it was not the same. This is much more heavy duty and durable. Do it. Go with the name brand
