Bambinos Tidy Table Tray

I purchased the Tidy Table Tray after having borrowed one from a neighbor to use at my aunt's house (she has a glass table). It worked quite well, so I decided to use one at home. We use a high chair that doesn't have a built in tray, the child pulls right up to the table, and despite my efforts, the table top where my daughter sits was becoming a complete mess. Enter the tray. It clips on well to all tables we have tried (n=3), one of them being glass, as previously stated. It contains most messes. Further, the tray doesn't seem to mark any of the table tops we have tried. One reason I didn't give it four stars, is that the clip used to attach the tray to the table is quite large, and my child cannot quite scoot up to the table without bumping into the tray clip. I think with older and bigger children this probably isn't a problem, but my daughter is quite small for her age, and the clip does get in the way. Also, if you have a smaller child, the drop catching part of the tray impedes their movement a little bit, but I think this will resolve as my child gets older. The tray is recommended for children 18 months and older, and while my daughter is almost 20 months, she is quite small for her age. Just for reference, she's 31 inches and 18 pounds, and the top of the tray lip hits right about her mid-chest, as opposed to nearer her waist, which seems to be the desired position (according to product pictures). So, if you have a smaller child, just beware that the tray is definitely designed for bigger children. I would assume that an average size 18 month old child would do fine. One other complaint, the flexi-diner removable part of the tray is slightly difficult to remove, but after practice it gets easier. The key is to push on the bottom edge of the tray with the heel of your hand, instead of lifting like the directions suggest. We take this tray with us whenever we go out anywhere, as it is so useful. My daughter even likes to put her sippy cup in the cup holder. Washing the flexi-diner (green part) in the sink is quite easy, and, although it is dishwasher safe, I haven't tried that yet, since sink washing is quick. I imagine we will be using this tray after my daughter is beyond toddler age, as it works well as an art surface and for "fancy" tables, should you encounter those while visiting other houses. I am planning to purchase another one for our next baby.

I bought 2 of these trays for 2 and 4 year old boys to eat at the table with their Stokke chairs. (Stokke chair buyers beware: very inferior product. would suggest you stay clear and spend your money elsewhere!!) These trays do seem a bit flimsy but the design and concept is spot on. It is difficult for child to move and easy for adult hands to unclip. The movable green tray is easy to clean and snap on. the tray itself has ample room for eating a full meal and the white tray for doing play-doh/art projects on. the tray is also deep enough to let a 2 year old spill liquids in before you swoop in to remove. One minor problem we have is the green tray has a food catch area (where the tray meets child's torso) it is raised and for our youngest a bit too high as it hits his chest. I know once my son is taller like his older brother this will not be an issue. Overall I highly recommend this product and hope it lasts as long as the 2 year old needs it.

I love this table tray, and it has saved so much work for me. My son is always playing with things on the table, like messing around with the food he's eating, or roll around his sippy cup (which usually falls off the table). The tray helps contain all this mess within it and the clean up is a lot less horrible. On top of that, he's a messy eater and this tray does help catch a lot more food that's fallen off his spoon with the extra lip in front of his chest. The surface of the tray makes wiping off oily food really easy, and if it gets too messy, all i have to do is unclip it and wash it in the sink. Love this try and I can't imagine without it anymore!

Not very glamorous, but a terrifically practical baby shower gift. This is one of those "why-didn't-I-think-of-it" inventions. After cleaning up plates thrown off the table by the baby or pulled off of the table by the dog when my kids were young, I found this and knew that it would be highly valued by my soon-to-be-mommy niece.

This tray is excellent for the toddler who throws around his/her place mat.

It is held in place by a spring-hinged clip. The tray 'pops' off for washing.

The usefulness of the removable tray is limited because the tray itself clips on/off and takes about 1 second to remove. I am a bit worried that my 20 month old son will learn this trick soon. I would suggest this improvement:

Have a screw clamp instead of clip for the tray. This would be useful for several reasons (1) a toddler would not be able to remove it from the table, (2) pinched fingers would be less likely from the clip snapping shut, (3) the back side (against the toddler stomach) could be 'flat' instead of having a ledge where food accumulates in difficult to clean places.
