3 lifestyles that demand car seat covers

 

Australians do a lot with their cars, and while some of these vehicles are prepared for the challenging Australian landscape, many need interior care accessories to keep the existing upholstery untouched.

After all, when it comes time to sell your vehicle, ripped, tattered and stained seats are going to be an immediate turn off for any buyer. With a simple one-off investment in car seat covers, Australian motorists can stop worrying about their upholstery and get on with their lives.

If you fall into any of the following categories, it's time to end the suffering of your car seats.

The parent

While you love your children, chances are the regular car seats that come with your vehicle don't. Whether they're spilling food and drinks or dragging mud throughout the interior after a muddy football practice, your upholstery can suffer a lifetime's worth of abuse in just a few short weeks.

According to McCrindle Research, Australia is in the midst of a baby boom, with the average mother giving birth to 2 children throughout her life. This means double trouble for every family car throughout the country, and the twice the demand for car seat covers.

The pet owner

Like children, pets can bring much joy to people's lives, but they also a new level of destruction to vehicle interiors. While some owners will let their dog ride in the back of their ute or SUV, we've seen enough examples of these animals happily hanging their head out of a passenger window to know this isn't always the case.

Regular car seats aren't made to withstand dog claws or the movements of other pets and these animals can swiftly scratch the surface of any type of seat. Up to 50 per cent of Australian households have at least one cat or dog, according to Roy Morgan Research, but how many own car seat covers to keep their cars safe?

The Uber driver

While dogs and children may have the potential to be destructive in their own right, few living things are quite as destructive as late-night Uber passengers. There's often no telling where they've been or where they're going, the only certainty is that the inebriated variety can leave all sorts of mess in a motor vehicle.

What can seem like a harmless way to make a quick buck can turn to hell for your vehicle's upholstery. We won't bother you with the gory details, but it's safe to say car seat covers are a must.
