Sturdy. A bit bigger than expected, especially for rear facing seats- has to tilt to use. Like the compartments. Good product!

This was amazing for our 3 YO during our most recent road trip. Typically, she will drop her toys constantly and scream bloody murder for them, but this prevented that from happening!

After being sorely disappointed purchasing another top-rated tray, I started my search again for a better travel tray for my 2.5-year-old toddler. We travel cross-country every year by plane so I wanted something my son could use while sitting in his car seat during the long flights. This may not be as cute or attractive-looking as the tray I returned, but this functions WAY better (function always trumps looks!). The walls are made of thick, rigid material and the velcro holding them together is secure and heavy-duty. I really like the generous size of the side pockets. I can easily fit regular-sized markers in the pen slots and the zipper pocket on the other side can fit plenty of goodies for travel. There is a zipper beneath the tray that is easily accessible when the tray is folded and buckled. While the zippered compartment is pretty tight, I can fit several thin coloring and sticker books. The selling point for me were the little square holders atop the tray surface. They are simple to attach and detach should you need the entire tray surface. The tablet holder is just okay"”not very tall and the border would impede in the viewing area, but I'm not planning on using it as a tablet holder so it's not a loss for me. In fact, I used it today for my son's Priddy book"”perfect fit. It held the book open and upright while he ate his lunch in the car. There are ample pockets on either side of the tray walls, and the surface material seems like it will withstand plenty of use. I did detect a bit of a chemical smell upon opening the tray, but after a day, I can no longer smell it. I wiped the surface down before its first use and placed a disposable placemat (the kind that sticks to tables) before allowing my son to eat on it. He enjoyed his meal and the car ride, so I'd say this is a winner. Note: I used this in the car rear-facing and as you can see, the tray sits a bit high against my son and is at an angle due to the positioning of his car seat. Still, it worked fine.

These trays are a traveling must for our family. We snap the straps behind the car seat so after seat belts the tray stays in place. Our child can play, color, eat, watch her tablet all on this tray. It saves a lot of mess from getting stuck in the seats, she can keep a small stash of crayons with her at all times. I've added some dollar tree plastic bins that fit into the compartments which have made things even better in terms of spillage and mess control. Her crayons get stored in a lidded container and snacks of cups can be safely put into the open top plastic cubby and the tray keeps all of it velcro in place.

My son is special needs and loves fruit, especially pineapples. He also loves bagged fruit like cherries and apples. So in the car, his comfort is having a pineapple and cherries, or corn or other veggies or fruit . When we go shopping we let him pick out some . This lap table is perfect for him to hold all his treasures! It kept everything on the table through breaking and turns. It also had room for him to line up his items and place them back in containers. We are planning on a road trip and Look forward to letting him use blocks and coloring on it also! Great product!
