Buy now & save up to 45% ↓ Free US shipping · 30-day returns · Made in IllinoisThe Stupid Car Tray® Complete Kit is a 17.5" long by 12" wide by 4.5" tall car tray that sits on your passenger seat or a back seat and levels out the slope of a bucket seat, so food, a laptop or a coloring book stays flat instead of sliding. It anchors to the seat with a Quick-Release Seat Anchor that slides between the cushion and the seat back, with no tools, and it can stay installed while you drive. Unlike a steering wheel desk, it never touches the wheel or the airbag, so it never has to come off before you pull away. The Complete Kit adds the silicone grip mat for a laptop or tablet, drop-in cup and mug holders for bottles up to 4 inches wide, and two elastic cargo straps. Designed and made in Illinois.
How it works
The Quick-Release Seat Anchor slides between the seat cushion and seat back. Two legs on the far end counteract the slant of a bucket seat, so your laptop, coffee and take-out sit flat, and stay there through turns.
Pizza, coffee, a laptop, a cake. The tray levels the seat and the straps hold it all through turns. Tap the video to watch.
The patented anchor system counteracts the slant of your passenger seat, creating a perfectly flat workspace or take-out table.
Peel-and-stick silicone grip mat, rubberized non-slip rim, and two elastic cargo straps. Your laptop, coffee and pizza stay exactly where you put them.
Drop-in holders for tumblers, heavy mugs and wide-base bottles up to 4" across. Yeti, Stanley, Hydro Flask, all welcome.
Car, SUV, truck or van. Installs in 5 seconds, comes out just as fast when you have a passenger.
Park, set the tray on the passenger seat, and eat off a flat surface instead of your knees. The two cargo straps hold a takeout container or bag so nothing tips when you reach for a napkin, and the drink sits in the cup holder instead of between your legs. Afterward, wipe it down with a household cleaner and a microfiber cloth before you head back in.
The tray stays anchored to the seat between deliveries and rides, so you can eat, set down your phone, or stack a delivery bag without unclipping anything before you pull away. If a passenger or a bulky order needs the seat, the Quick-Release Seat Anchor lets you pull the tray out in seconds.
A 13-inch laptop sits flat on the 17.5" by 12" surface, and the silicone grip mat included in the Complete Kit keeps it, a tablet or a notepad from sliding. The cargo straps hold a folder or clipboard. It is a passenger-seat desk, not a wheel-mounted one, so you close the laptop and drive.
Anchored to a rear seat the same way it anchors to the front, it becomes a stable surface for snacks, coloring or a tablet that does not slide off during turns. Crayons and small toys stay inside the raised edges, and drinks go in the cup and mug holders instead of a lap. It also works as a travel tray for a toddler to eat and color on. It sits on the seat beside a car seat, not on the child, and it comes out in seconds when the seat is needed.
In a pickup, SUV or van the seat anchor slides between the cushion and the seat back and the tray gives you a level place to eat off in the cab without balancing anything on the wheel. We have not tested it in semi cabs with air-ride or bench seats, so we do not claim that fit; if your seat has a gap between cushion and seat back, it will anchor.
A flat, anchored surface makes the biggest difference. With the tray on the passenger seat, drive-thru bags strap down instead of sliding into the footwell, coffee stays upright in the holders, napkins and sauces have a home, and a back-seat tray gives kids a place for snacks and coloring. It stays anchored between stops, so there is nothing to pack and unpack at every rest area.
For eating in the car, a seat-anchored car tray is the better choice for anyone who drives between stops; a steering wheel desk only works while parked and has to come off before you drive.
A steering wheel desk clamps to the wheel in front of the driver. It puts food or a laptop directly in front of you while parked, but it has to come off before you drive, it sits over the airbag, and the surface is limited by the size of the wheel.
The Stupid Car Tray sits on the seat beside you, or on a back seat, and anchors to the seat. It stays put when you drive off, nothing is in front of the driver, the 17.5" by 12" surface fits a 13-inch laptop or a pizza box, and it works in the back seat, which a wheel-mounted desk cannot do.
If you want food in your lap while parked, a wheel desk is fine. If you get in and out all day, for deliveries, sales calls or school pickup, a seat tray is the one you never have to take down.

Replaces my standard drink holder in my cybertruck that is not very good, now I can take any mug with me!
Perfect for my small SUV Honda hrv
Most usrfil thing I ever bought for my car. I drive deliveries and thix thing is a Godsend!!
everything! it's awesome!
Fast delivery got me set up for 1000 mile round trip. The tray installed easily and held my water bottle and big gulp soft drink reliably. I used the trays for gum and sunglasses as well.
I LOVE this thing! It seemed a little silly at first, but I figured I'd give it a try and see if it does what I need it to do, and it definitely does. I've started recommending it to others I know that live solo in their cars.
Love it! Was worried I wouldn’t have room for more than one big cup with the holder, but not an issue.
Great product!
Easy in and out. Even though FSD drives me everywhere, I feel safer with a place to have anything I need at arm’s length. Great product and quick delivery.
Perfect for my needs
As described handy addition to the tray if you have multiple soft drinks.
Love mine, it is so convenient and stable. Unfortunately my tray was missing a strap. I contacted customer support, they were amazing, they sent my strap right away.
The perfect way to organize my passenger seat for solo long trips. I have my Tesla drive me from home in South Carolina to as far as Central Texas and this tray makes it much easier.
Works great
I can’t believe I bought this Stupid Car Tray, but I am so glad I did. It is terrific. Worth every penny.

A steering wheel desk puts a surface in front of the driver and must be removed before you drive. The Stupid Car Tray sits on the passenger or rear seat and can stay anchored while you drive. If you want to eat, work and keep drinks in place between stops without setting up and tearing down, the seat tray is the more practical format.
Set the tray on the passenger seat so your food sits level instead of tilting on a bucket seat, run the two cargo straps over the container or bag so it cannot tip, and put your drink in the cup holder. Afterward, wipe the tray with a household cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Spills stay on the tray, not the upholstery.
The tray gives you a stable surface on the seat beside you for food and drinks, and it stays anchored through your whole shift, so you can eat, charge a phone and set down a drink between stops without moving anything. The Quick-Release Seat Anchor lets you pull it out in seconds when a passenger or a bulky order needs the seat.
The Stupid Car Tray works as a passenger-seat desk. A 13-inch laptop sits flat on the 17.5" by 12" surface, the silicone grip mat in the Complete Kit keeps it from sliding, and the cargo straps hold a folder or clipboard. Because it mounts to the seat and not the steering wheel, you can close the laptop and drive without taking anything down.
Yes. The tray anchors to a rear seat the same way it does the front, giving kids a flat surface for snacks, coloring or a tablet that does not slide during turns, with drinks held upright in the cup and mug holders.
It fits any vehicle seat where the seat anchor can slide between the seat cushion and the seat back, which covers cars, SUVs, pickup trucks and vans. We have not tested it in semi cabs, so we do not claim that fit.
No, it is not a steering wheel tray. It sits on the passenger seat or a rear seat and anchors to the seat, so it never touches the steering wheel or airbag area. Yes, it can stay installed while you drive; the Quick-Release Seat Anchor holds it in place.
The drop-in cup and mug holders fit cups, mugs and bottles up to 4 inches wide, including handled mugs and large tumblers such as a 40 oz Stanley, Yeti or Hydro Flask.

Yes. Anchored to the rear seat beside a car seat, it gives a toddler a flat surface for snacks and coloring with raised edges that keep crayons and cups from rolling off. It is a seat tray, so it never attaches to the child.
Yes. The Quick-Release Seat Anchor holds the tray to the rear seat while you drive, the same way it does in the front, and it does not touch the child or their restraint.
In a pickup, SUV or van, yes. The seat anchor needs a gap between the seat cushion and the seat back to slide into. We have not tested it in semi cabs with air-ride or bench seats, so we do not claim that fit.
