You know it's good when your husband points out, 'Man, this was a great purchase.' Makes clean up so much easier since the IKEA tray is so hard to remove.
BUY THIS PLACEMAT! I literally say to myself at least twice a day, 'Man I love this thing.' Honestly best invention ever!
I bought the highchair cushion cover first and didn't buy the silicone placemat because I thought, Eehh, I don't really need that.' Do yourself a favor, buy the placemat. It's amazing. It makes messes a MILLION times easier to clean!

Why Placemats?
Easy Clean Up
The IKEA highchair tray is notoriously difficult to remove, but with a placemat, you'll never need to take it off!
Safety Tested
Unlike plastic or lower-grade silicones, food-grade silicone contains no lead, phthalates, BPAs or other harsh chemicals
Less Slip
Slip-resistant material helps little fingers pick up food
