Review on A Superior Shield for your Car Seat: ARIES 3142-20 Seat Defender 58-Inch x 23-Inch Camo Waterproof Universal Bucket Car Seat Cover Protector by Chad Gravely

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Price is lower than it should be

I got this as a temporary cover for my 2000 Wrangler. I sweat a lot and often have to take a beach towel with me on the way back from running or cycling. Beach towels work well but they stay on the headrest for about 7 seconds. My "fix" was to get the little bungee to wrap part of the seat's headrest around the towel. Then I went mountain biking with a friend in the 2013 Grand Cherokee Overland. He chuckled at the towel I'd brought and pulled the thing out from under the seat. Another "why didn't I think of that" point. The upper is stretchy - think a sweatshirt for the fit and you basically have the concept. What you might not realize is that the seat cover is waterproof but looks like firm padding (aka comfortable even in shorts). Also, the back is rubber so it doesn't move around the seat. Please note this is not a permanent seat cover. It doesn't drape over the sides of the seat. However, I've had it on my seat since I got it about a week ago because I keep forgetting to take it off - it's such an effective solution. Don't let the cheap price fool you. It's one of those things that's pretty competitively priced. If you are a runner/cyclist/caver/tourist/hunter who doesn't want to ruin car seats after a ride, this is your solution.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Lots of things
