Customer Review: Awesome Invention!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was at BJ's one day one the baby aisle and I saw these, and decided to try them. My family owns and operates a restaurant so we eat out quite a bit. My daughter was just at the point of sitting in a high-chair and eating finger foods. She was always putting her mouth on the table, which disgusted me. These table toppers are are the answer. You just peel the strips off and sitck them to any table, and can wrap the bottom around the edge of the table, so no more mouth on a dirty table. They stay in place, and when you are done, you just pull them up and throw them away. I use them with the "Crumb Catcher" bibs that you find at Wal-Mart that catch what she drops. She stays pretty clean, which is great. I would recommend these to anyone with a little one in a high-chair. They are awesome!Customer Review: What a waste of $$$...

My son also rips these right off the table. He is almost 11 months old so hopefully he will do better with them when he is older (fortunately I only bought the 20 pack). This is a great idea in theory but for my curious son it is not practical. I am back to using my antibacterial wipes to clean the table off which is the only effective method that I have found so far.
Update: I have recently found two alternatives of this same concept that have worked out well. The local Dollar Tree sells their own version of table toppers that cling quite well (pack of 8 for $1) and the Hippopatamus brand that Target sells that have great educational themes of ABCS and numbers 1-10. These wrap around the edge of the table and cover more area than the previously reviewed brand.
Customer Review: I keep my diaper back stocked with these

I really like these table toppers. I wrap about 6 inches under the table and stick it because that's where lots of germs (and bubblegum, and what not are). Yeah it may be a little germaphobic but I can't tell you how many times I've wiped the table with a wet wipe and realized just how dirty it was. I don't even want to think about what's under the table which is why these are great.
The BIG benefit to these mats is that the kids LOVE the colors and are facinated with them. My 8 month has been using them for a few months and just loves touching the mat. The only downside is that I wish the sticky strip was wider because it does have a problem staying adhered to underneath the table. It could also be because the table is so dirty.
Customer Review: Have kids? Have these!

If you EVER eat out with your toddler, you need to invest in these mats. It used to disgust me to see parents wipe off a table at a restaurant and then put their chid's food directly on the table. You don't realize how unsanitary that is. These mats quickly adhere to the table, typically stay put, and provide for clean-up.
I deducted a star, because sometimes, just sometimes, I am fumbling so much trying to remove the covers for the adhesive that my child starts getting a little rowdy because he's ready for his food. Also, my son likes to try to pull the placemat off the table. For the most part, he fails. But, he'll occasionally get a good pull on it and end up knocking something over.
But, overall it's a great product.
Customer Review: A must have!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered these for the first time when my son was about 10 months old and I couldn't believe how much easier it makes dining out with a little one. I was always worried about the germs from the table and I couldn't put a plate in front of him because he would dump the food and throw the plate! I also tried putting food on a napkin but that was even worse! I now use these with my second child and I wouldn't think of eating out without them. They are large enough to cover the perfect amount of table and I can relax knowing that she's not eating food directly off of the table. I apply the bottom sticky strip just under the edge of table and then pull tight to apply the top one. This is a must have!
