Query: Terrific item for outings

I didn't have the problems that some write about (table clothes making the suction cups not work-- never went to those kids of resturants with my 1 year old! or trouble cleaning-- they clean well with a regular diaper wipe & then I would give it a good cleaning at home). This item was a cost-effecitve alternative to those stick on one use placemats. The little "trough" caught a lot of food. My daughter is now two and long grew out of this as she easily eats off of a plate without trouble, so you won't need it forever. I found it a great travel item; it rolls up well and fit into my diaper bag. We even used it at home. I would highly recommend it.
