Definitely worth the money!!

Comments about One Step Ahead Go Anywhere Table and Footrest:
Bought two of these tables prior to a very long road trip. So glad we did!! Used for a 2 yr and 5 yr old. No complaints of sore legs, since they each had a foot rest that we were able to adjust as needed. Eating in the car was much easier as they could set their food on their tray and have their drink close by. They were able to color, play, and even nap by putting their pillows on the tray and laying on them. I've read the bad reviews given about this product but never experience any of the complications described. The handles were easy to adjust for the heighth and angle of the tray and foot rest and never came loose unless we wanted it to. So easy to install and remove if needed. Would definitely recommend for those with toddlers/preschoolers for long trips. :-)
Pretty cool

It gave my daughter the ability to put her feet up. After hours of travel, those little legs get tired & fall asleep just hanging down. She never complained on the trip to Florida this time that her legs hurt!!
Maybe for Older Children
By Island Mom
from SC
I bought two of these for my children (ages 18mo and 5) as we were going to be taking several long road trips this spring. Both my children love to color and I thought this would be a good product that would help stave off the "are we there yet" questions because they would be so busy with activities on their new trays! I have tried other brands that sit on the child's lap, but I wanted something that was a bit more permanent and the cup/snack holders seemed like a bonus addition. The installation was incredibly easy, with the one drawback being that my older child does have a bit of trouble getting in and out of the vehicle with the tray in place, but nothing that can't be overcome. However, by the time we took our first pit stop I noticed that my younger child's tray wouldn't stay in place and kept falling in her lap despite the number of times I tightened it back into position. By the second leg of our trip the yellow tray had completely fallen off. I did notice my 18mo old kicking the tray, but I doubt very seriously that her kicks would be hard enough to pop the top off the base. My older child's tray seems to be fine. She loves being able to push it away from her or pull it close while she writes as well as having a cup holders for her water. Since she is a bit more gentle on things than her younger sibling, I'm wondering if this tray isn't meant to take the abuse of a toddler. I have been pleased with the product for my older child and disappointed in the product for my younger.
Awesome idea but.......

Love the idea and concept so cudos to whoever thought of this. I just wish it was made better. I purchased ours in November and the tray is already broken and won't stay up. I was so disappointed.... My daughter's booster seat keeps sliding on it too. I had to put one of those non skid seat protectors over it. Although it did break I love the fact that this company stands behind their products. I called and the service was phenominal! They are sending me a new tray without me having to go through the hassle of taking the entire carseat set-up out of the car and sending it back. Hopefully the next tray holds up longer!

Great idea, poorly made
By Mom
from Nashua, New Hampsire
Great idea for a product, but poorly made. I had purchased this for my older child for our long trips. I had issues with the tray staying up, it kept falling down. For the amount of money it cost for this product, I say it is not worth it.
FANTASTIC PRODUCT- MY FAVORITE IN YEARS
By Jane
from Los Angeles, CA
This is a very sturdy product. Works great. Best product to have for the car seat EVER. We have 2 of these and have lasted us years. Highly recommend for any parent taking their kids in the car often. Footrest promotes circulation and gives kids a place to put their feet other than kicking the chair in front. The table is great for books, food, drinks, coloring, you name it. Fantastic product to get for any parent for Christmas or just buy yourself. 5 Star product and I also saw that it is safe in the car as well. My hat is off to whoever makes this product.

My grand-daughter is going to be traveling alot, due to her parents being in the military, and this is going to be very helpful for her to keep her legs from dangling on the car seat.

Great little tray!
By Mommy on the move
from Ohio
The "Go Anywhere Table and Footrest" worked like a charm. Our carseat does not have arm rests and the sides on the seat are very low. We tried several loose trays that simply rest or attach to the sides of the seat, or in our case rested on the child's legs, but none worked with our seat. Finally a tray that works! My child has a table to eat and play on, a cup holder and (childs favorite part) a secret compartment to store treasures. We do have to adjust the tray every time our child gets in and out of the car but the tray is designed in such a way that this is not much of a task at all. The tray can also be removed from the base entirely and folds up nicely to be stored out of the way. Both removing and adjusting the tray required an adults assistance but as I stated, was in no way a difficult task. We recently returned from a lengthy car trip and are very pleased with this product! Also, I can not say enough about "One Step Ahead". Shipping was extremely fast and communication was excellent!
best invention!

Love , Love this Product! My boys love this table, when we go for travels, they can eat in the car without problems and they watch movies with their portable DVD's, it's so quiet in the car, sometimes it feels like they're not even there,lol. The table is awesome!!!
Great but cheaply made
By TXMom2Boys
from Frisco, TX
We got this for a 10 day trip from TX to FL. I read a review on [@] that these were great, but that if price was an issue maybe not because they would break easily, due to the lightweight plastic used. We're on Day 7 of our trip and so far so good, and they've really come in handy. The kids use them for their books and snacks, and I was super grateful for them when we needed to eat but wanted to stay in the car. All in all, I would highly recommend these for road trips, but with the caveat that they might be good for only one trip. Oh, and they aren't as large/wide as they look in the picture. At first the kids and I were disappointed--we expected them to be wider--but the size hasn't been a problem, in fact maybe it's better because they're easy to stow between the seats of our minivan.

Great product!
By WG
from Arlington, VA
We ordered one foot rest for our son b/c of him complaining about his legs dangling. Tried it out & it works great. Ordered the table & foot rest for our daughter, to give the tray table a try. The foot rest wasn't working properly, called customer service & they shipped us a new one right away while we were out of town (to the place we were at on vacation). The next one was fine. Tried ordering another tray so that our son could have a tray as well, but we can't purchase it separately. The company really needs to sell the tray separately b/c I don't need another foot rest just for a tray table.
Not recommended
By Brandi
from Friendsville, MD
Foot rest had to be put down everytime we got in and out of car. Croweded space between kids seats and back of front seats. Tray did not want to stay attached and things slide off tray easily when it was attached. Too bulky and would not recommend

What a piece of garbage!
By Jen
from Albany, NY
I bought this for a long road trip at the last minute, and was so pleased when it showed up last night as we were packing to leave this morning. Now I wish it didn't make it in time - the footrest didn't stay in place after 10 minutes, and within two hours, the tray fell off while my son was eating. It looked like it was glued on! We literally have owned this piece of garbage less than 24 hours, and are now stuck traveling with it in a crowded car for a week so we can bring it home and return it. What a colossal waste I money, and so, so cheaply made. I wish I could give it a negative star!

VERY UNHAPPY
By Little Miss Mom
from Nebraska
Within 10 minutes of installing, the footrest fell and would not engage. I am unable to tighter the knob so that the teeth engage so the bottom half falls every time. VERY DISAPPOINTED. I can't believe that I just threw money down the drain. So much for our trip.....
The Only One You'll EVER Need!
By Product Diva

About Me Parent of Multiples (Twins etc)
This thing is a sanity saver. Great for long or short trips. The accessories are great too. No need to bring a booster chair for your toddler the chair clamp turns almost any regular chair into a perfect spot to feed your little one. I can't say enough about this product! AND the customer service is outstanding. One of the clamps finally gave out after two years of use. When I called to see if there was a way to tighten it, they sent me a NEW one. Now thats what you call great customer service. Buy it! You will NOT be disappointed.
