A complete waste of money. Eddie Bauer used to be a premium brand, but now the name is simply licensed to manufacturers who churn out cheap Chinese-made junk products.
After only two months, the straps that hold this mirror to the headrest didn’t just break, they literally DISINTEGRATED INTO POWDER.
I had thought these straps were nylon, but apparently they are made of whatever low-grade plastic waste the manufacturer had laying around at the time.

We are very disappointed with this product. We expected much more out of the Eddie Bauer name! The ‘mirror’ is very flimsy and distorted. Looks more like a fun house mirror – not one I can use to keep an eye on my baby in the back seat.

First of all the mirror was so flimsy that my baby’s face looked like I was looking into those crazy mirrors at the fair. The tether that lets you angle the mirror rotted in the sun after only 3 months of use. such a disappointment. And there’s no where to write to to voice my complaints or ask for a rebate. Don’t waste your money!!!

My husband picks this up at Baby R Us without reading any reviews as I’ve suggested. I am now putting this in his car instead. This is our first car seat mirror, so I thought they all distort the baby’s face until I read the reviews here. On the packaging, it shows the baby’s face very clearly. Yet, in reality, my baby looks like she is in a funny mirror. I can’t even see whether she is sleeping or awake. The only good thing is that I finally figured out how to make it stay put on the seat rest. It is not worth your money.

I agree with all the other bad reviews – this thing is a total waste of money. It’s basically some flimsy reflective cellophane type material and two nylon straps to fasten it to the back of your headreast. There’s also some weird hook kind of thing attached to the back (I think the instructions said it’s for people who want to install it some alternative way) that is too narrow to hook onto anything and just gets in the way when you’re just trying to use the straps. Anyway, it moves around a lot and sometimes just falls completely down the headrest. It comes with some ghetto foam wedges to presumably stabilize it, but I didn’t want to use them because they looked like they would not work, and I suspected that the adhesive would ruin my leather car upholstery, which based on the other review seems like it would have. Even if it would stay in place, the cheap “mirror” horribly distorts everything if it is bent in the slightest. And of course, the mirror inevitably bends when you try to tighten the straps to get it to stay on the headrest. So even if you manage to get it properly positioned (which is unlikely), you won’t be able to see any details about what your child is doing – asleep? awake? sucking her thumb? putting something she found on the ground in her mouth? who can say? not you, if you’re using this piece of crap.
