Fact #1. One of the first patents for a car seat protector only dates back to 2006. It was a soft, flexible mat the user placed on the vehicle's seat. It provided a non-slip surface on which to place a booster seat. It also featured a pocket panel that hung off the front of the seat for storage.
Fact #2. One of the reasons for the advent of car seat protectors was to reduce the chances of a booster seat slipping upon the surface of the vehicle's seat itself. While many websites claim the opposite is true, the dense plastics manufacturers use in the construction of most boosters may not get the best traction.
Fact #3. Most manufacturers make soft-style protectors from nylon or polyester. A gripping material like rubber or PVC is used to create a secure hold on the booster seat. They're easy to install and easy to take out. While not in use, they take up much less space than hard-style models due to their flexibility.
Fact #4. Hard-style protectors are usually crafted from hard rubber or dense polyurethane. They are akin to car mats in how they look and feel. Instead of protecting your car's floors, they protect your vehicle's seats and provide a solid base for the booster seat. The hard surface means that it's easier to clean, as well.
Fact #5. Always consider the instructions of the booster seat manufacturer when purchasing a protector. There are some manufacturers who do not recommend protectors for safety purposes. Incorrectly installing a booster seat is one of the leading causes of death for children involved in a car accident. Always err on the side of caution and follow the guidelines. Ideally, you'll be shopping for a car seat and a protector simultaneously.
