Car seat protectors are used to protect car seats from stains and damage. They come in different designs, some are liquid repellent or waterproof, and some have heating elements or wool for warmth. They can also hide minor damages and come with storage pockets. Two-piece designs are more secure.

A car seat protector is a device used to protect the material that covers a car seat from stains and damage. Typically a fabric that is fitted over the seat and features an elastic band sewn around the perimeter, the car seat protector will often sport a design or design pattern intended to add visual appeal to the vehicle seat. Occasionally, a car seat protector is liquid repellent or waterproof to further protect the seat from spills and stains. In some colder climates, the car seat protector may include battery-operated heating elements or thick wool to add a layer of warmth and comfort for the operator.

Many times, a car seat protector will be used to cover the damaged vehicle seat or to change the color of the vehicle’s interior. By placing the covers on the seats, minor rips, tears, wear and stains can be hidden without the cost of a replacement seat or professional cleaning. Many people who have occupations where their clothes can get dirty during the day’s activities depend on a car seat protector to keep the interior of their vehicle in a clean condition. When you’re not at work, the protector can simply be removed from the seat and stored in the trunk of the vehicle until needed again.

There are many types and styles of car seat protector options, including those to fit bucket, bench, or split-bench seat configurations. Designs include openings for headrests and seat belts and include styles for high-back and low-back bucket seats. Some manufacturers also include additional storage pockets sewn into the sides of the lower front edge of the protector. The vehicle operator can store gloves, maps and other belongings in these pockets, giving the cover added value and convenience. Some protective covers used in pickup trucks also have large storage pockets sewn into the back of the cover to act as handy storage providers on the back of the seat.

Most high-end car seat covers use a two-piece design with the seat bottom and seat back installed individually. This type of cover will typically stay in place longer without requiring readjustment and adjustment. With one-piece designs, the covers tend to come loose when the seat is tilted up or reclined, as well as when the operator or passengers slide in and out of the vehicle. Some manufacturers also include optional armrest covers for vehicles with bucket seats and center armrests.
