Everything else about my new little “office desk” is absolutely fantastic and so very easy to attach to my steering wheel as well as stores neatly between the seat and armrest when I’m done. Can attach with one hand, which is great and remove also with one hand. Love that it is all a plastic type of surface as it makes cleaning easy to wipe down or even take inside to the kitchen sink. I haven’t had any need to put in the actual dishwasher, but appears the be sturdy enough to handle it in need arises. Well made, durable and easy to care for.
]]>But the easy fix for that is “don’t mess with your wheel”, Duh, LOL. It won’t hold a “heavy” load, not because it’s flimsy (because the tray itself is very sturdy), but because of the mechanism by which it attaches and hangs from the wheel. It has no problem holding a 17″ lap top, but you wouldn’t want to rest your arms on it and bear down as you would if you planned to take a nap. I’ve also used it as a plain tray, in the back of the car or for camping when you need a flat surface to sit drinks. Fun hack: We used it at the pool. We cut up 4 pieces of pool noodle, made a slit down the side long ways, and put them around the outside of the tray. It floated and held our drinks. Like I said, great little gadget.
]]>This tray is sturdy enough to cut up food on it! Now, I have to be honest, I only used the “cup holder/placement” feature once…….I prefer the security of my cup holders in my car (‘17 Honda Civic). So where the cup I supposed to go, I put my phone there to watch YouTube while I eat my lunch (propped up by a popsocket). It works perfectly! Oh, and if you put this on your steering wheel and it’s at an angle, just take it off and try again. It’ll happen when you’re trying to put it on in a rush or just aren’t paying attention. 🙂
]]>Most recently, I had to take my dog to the emergency vet for care, as her cancer came back, and because of COVID, I had to wait in my car. I had my iPad with me, and this tray, and I set it up, had my iPad on the tray, and was able to relax in the front seat (as best I could) while they ran some tests on my dog inside the hospital. I’m so glad I bought this. It’ll be great for when I can go back to work on the road.
]]>The tray pops on and off easily regardless of steering wheel position (No need to turn the wheel upside down as mentioned with other kinds of cars.) It holds a meal or my cellphone/tablet/book securely without shifting or wiggling. When not in use, it tucks neatly between the seat and the center console. The tray is sturdy and seems like it will serve me well for many years. This is a simple thing, but it will really come in handy for anyone who spends a lot of time in their car!
