This headrest holder works great with our Kindle Fire in a slim case as well as with iPhones of all sizes. It installs easily and allows the kids to watch shows from the mounted screen. There's no more fishing around the backseat or on the floor because a tablet or phone was thrown by a tantruming child. No more screams of frustration from a child who accidentally exited their show by pushing the home button. It's simple to install and simple to use. The quality is excellent. I originally bought this for the toddler, and now my teenagers are asking for them, so they can have a place to put their phones while they make TikToks.
Product functions as advertised. If you want a high quality, minimalist product design that’s incredibly easy to install and helps keep kids entertained in the back seat this is it. Tablet attachment is sturdy. Viewing angle is easily adjustable. Depending on a tablet’s protective case there may be an issue maximizing how effectively this tablet holder will secure it. One of our tablets has a very thin polyurethane cover (minimal protection) and it was fine, the other device has a significantly more durable case design (child proof) requiring its removal to effectively secure it in this device holder. Without measuring them, I’d estimate the tablet retention clamps on either side are about .25” thick. We primarily used this product for a lengthy road trip so case removal wasn’t an issue, but if you need to use frequently for short trips removing a tablet from its case each time could be a headache. Significant summer temperatures have not seemed to impact the load bearing effectiveness of the swivel connection between the vehicle headrest connection and the tablet support structure - functions like a car’s interior rear view mirror adjustment (I haven’t bothered to remove them from the vehicle as they are unintrusive). Overall very happy with this product and satisfied with its value/price.
a great one, thx! This is a sturdy well worth it buy. Easy to install will hold phone or iPad with ease. Strong hold and isn’t flimsy. Plus built good enough to out last the feet of our toddler now he can reach it.
My cames in time. I'm really happy! thank u~ Easy to install, even easy to use one handed putting a tablet back in it. Seems really durable and will last much longer than the last couple I’ve had that just snapped after a few uses.
Just returned on from a 40+ hour round trip to Florida. We purchased this in hopes that this would help our kids with the drive down. My 5-star rating is because the price and what I got out of it was valuable to me. It was easy to install and easy enough to remove the iPad when we left the vehicle. My kids say it didn't shake much. They certainly didn't complain. We thought about installing a DVD player but buying this, a new iPad, and a Netflix subscription that I was able to download a ton of choices was the better way.
Great idea for entertaining the kids in the back of the car on a long journey with no fighting over who can hold the device or who can't see it properly. The Ipad was secure and didn't wobble about at all. My only issue with it is, I wish it could bend back slightly to make it easier to see in the back seats. It was a bit too close to the kids in the back for them to be able to see it properly from their seats without leaning into the middle a bit. Obviously it's position is determined by how far forward the front seat that it's attached to is but I moved that seat as far forward as I could without crushing my knees and still it was too far back.
I bought this to travel to France with a month ago, it was for my 9year granddaughter to use for her iPad to watch down loaded films etc. It was easy to fit and there were no complaints from my granddaughter about vibration.Our journey was from South Wales to the Eurotunnel and down to Cognac and was about 12 hours driving time and there was no “I’m bored” or “are there yet”. So I would recommend it.
This item is so convenient for my daughter to watch her shows while in the car. Make sure if you have a rear facing car seat that the backseats have headrests that are detachable.
Extends easily by pulling out two small ropes, i can help my kid from the front seat to put in an ipad. Good for both ipad and phone.
This is amazing. I think I will order another one! Really like the design of this headrest mount. It holds a tablet well and is sturdy enough to hold the weight if the tablet.
loved it! Exactly what I was hoping for. It’s sturdy and easy to use and set up. Even when not using in the car, it doubles as a great stand. I love it.
really nice tablet holder that fits in any car!
This is really easy to install, and works well with smaller headrests. It is a little hard to pull the arms apart with one hand while you hold the tablet if you need to fully extend the arms.
Best tablet holder ! I really think this was the best one car tablet holder !
i am delighted. matches the photo in full

It is just cute and makes a wonderful acquisition - the quality is admirable for the price. I will surely acquire one again, and can decidedly recommend it to anyone.
This item works very well. The only issue that we have with it is that it is a tension bracket. It makes inserting the tablet difficult at times.
This tablet holder is perfectly made, no reason to worry
after a long search i am sure that the best price for car tablet holder is offered right here. the price is fair for the quality.
i really enjoy it. nice store. thank u
It doesn't hold my phone. It is big like tablet
It's actually quite a reasonable price for tablet holder, so I gave it a try. Satisfied :)
The product did well for holding my kid's ipads. When we went on a long trip they help my kids ipads with cases on them. I didn't give it 5 stars because of the sharp edges. I know that sounds weird but when my kid would bend down to grab something on the floor and come up, the ipad was sticking out and he would hit his head and it would be painful.
very, very good one! thanks for my tablet holder!
