what parents are saying
They do their job, one in each car. In one of the cars the window doesn’t close all of the way & water slightly leaks when going through the car wash. The hot indicators are nice but not a big deal. (Jan 30, 2020)

These were a pain to deal with. Do not recommend. Very inconvenient functionality. Aug 16, 2024

Haves these set up in the car but feel like they could do better at blocking sun. Also smaller than expected so I’m using both on the same window and just doesn’t fit like I would like Jun 21, 2024

Doesn't cover much of the window. My husband drives a 2020 Buick Encore Gx, I drive a regular 2019 Buick Encore. Both of us have issues with not much window coverage or not shielding the sun much. Jun 18, 2024

The product is very small and the way it is installed you can’t open/close the window without the entire thing falling off. Apr 29, 2024

Suction cups don’t always stick. Cold weather can be the culprit for that. I wish it was a little bigger too, I felt like the sun would peek around the sides and still shine in kids faces. Apr 03, 2024

These did not cover my whole back window. It covered only a small portion, so there was still sun in my child’s eyes. Feb 19, 2024

Very easy to install and keeps the sun out of my babies face. Feb 06, 2024

I like that these ones clip over the window, instead of just by suction cups. This allows them to stay in place much easier and provides the shade the kiddos desire. Feb 06, 2024

Have had these for 8 months and one of them has stopped retreating. Jan 12, 2024

The release for the shades never worked. Jan 10, 2024

HORRIBLE. Doesn’t keep ANY sun out of baby’s eyes and they’re so small they barely even cover half a window anyway. Jan 05, 2024

It’s covers the sun okay but I have a Jeep Wrangler and it nearly does not fit the windo. Dec 16, 2023

I didn't think this was very useful. Sep 27, 2023

These are great for the back seat and I love how they highlight "hot" when it's warm in the car. My child can easier lower and raise it up. Sep 22, 2023

We bought these for our cars and they’re so nice to have. They definitely help keep the light out and help with car naps! Aug 25, 2023

i love this! it keeps the sun out of my baby’s eyes Aug 13, 2023

I really wanted to like this but it doesn’t cover the windows well and the suction doesn’t stick. Aug 03, 2023

Not long enough for entire windows Jun 30, 2023

These are way too small for the car windows and we have a compact Hyundai! Sun definitely streams in and baby will not be protected. Cheap but you get what you pay for. Jun 28, 2023
- Erin B.

I don't feel like these block the sun very well. No impressed Jun 26, 2023
- Kristina P.

The plastic piece is heavy. If it got dislodged or feel for any reason I’m afraid it could hurt my child. I ended up not using them. Jun 14, 2023
The shades do work great, but if you ever want to crack that window, unfortunately, you will “unstick” your shade and it can swing to hit your toddler. We switched to a stick-on shade sheet . Apr 27, 2023
It seems like the baby is always in the sun because these do not cover enough of the window. I was so disappointed. I’ll probably just get the ones included with my next car so they fit the window. Mar 21, 2023

These are okay… the suction keeps coming off and I don’t know why. Feb 27, 2023
- Mikaela M.

Love this one, it does add more protection from the sun, given that my car has the factory tints. Feb 08, 2023

These work great for the part of the window they cover, but are on the smaller side so not great for vehicles with larger windows. Jan 25, 2023
- Christina M.

It pops off the window as soon as you roll it down. Annoying and just another thing to fix. My daughter pulled at it when she got older and could reach window. Jan 19, 2023
- Abriah C.
East Palatka, Florida
I do not recommend these. Sunlight still comes through and after repetitive warm weather the thing stays red/reads hot. They constantly fall off and my baby still gets sunlight in her eyes. Jan 16, 2023

Did not like this product. It did not fully cover my whole car window from the sun. Jun 02, 2023
- Kiersten A.
Topton, Pennsylvania
Would not recommend these shades since they do not shade the sun at all. Sunlight comes through significantly and I see little to no difference between using these and having nothing on the window. Oct 19, 2022

We used these with our oldest and now we have installed and awaiting the arrival of our twins, these have lasted us the past 4 years and work great. Easy to install. Sep 10, 2022

Great retractable shades for my car. Still work great even though they've been sitting in my car for four years. Suction pads stay on, and window clips are there for added stability. Feb 17, 2022
- Stacey P.
Hummelstown, Pennsylvania
They’re ok for keeping sun off baby. They don’t cover everything so some sun still gets by. The heat indicator is nice, but it permanently stays red/ hot after about a month of warm weather. Nov 24, 2021
- Ashley R.
Sanderson, Texas
They work like they’re supposed to, but don’t cover the entire window. So sometimes the kids still get sun in their face. Jun 30, 2021
- Natalie M.
South Gate, California
I hate that it isn’t super wise and only covers a portion of the back windows. They are outrageously long which doesn’t make sense. I am still in the market to find new ones. Feb 28, 2021
- Leighia D.
Bluefield, West Virginia
Not really worth it. It doesn’t fit larger windows, and I don’t feel that it takes the sun from being so bright for the kiddos Feb 10, 2021
- Elyssa B.

I love how simple they are! The work great on the windows of my SUV, and are super easy to install or remove. Jan 26, 2021

These shades do not fit my Audi Q5. They are too small & are not adjustable. I'm sure there are cars that these work well, but not mine. I use the UppaBaby ones now & they are adjustable in 6 ways Sep 08, 2020

These are great for the car. Babies don’t wear sunglasses so these take the place. We have them in both cars. Aug 06, 2020
- Ayana C.
Little Elm, Texas
I don’t have perfect square windows so they’re slanted some, but they serve their purpose and block out the sun! The white hot feature let’s you know if it’s too hot for baby, perfect for TX heat! May 07, 2020

These are okay. They do block out the sun, but they don’t cover a large area of space. Mar 04, 2020

Hard to see out window when reversing or switching lanes. Easy to install, hot button is a nice feature. Wasn't perfect at keeping sun out and sight impairment led me to taking it out of my car. Feb 14, 2020

Did not stay on my windows whatsoever. IF they did, they didn't block much sun. I would go with a different brand. Jan 01, 2020
- Rebecca K.
Los Angeles , California
They fall off the windows and it’s still way too bright and sunny for my baby to sleep. In fact she screams because the sun is right in her eyes! These are useless. they don’t fit the windows correvtl Nov 08, 2019

I like the idea of these, to keep the sun out and protect babys’ eyes. And even the white hot button feature is neat. However, ours would never stay in the windows, they always fell off. Apr 09, 2019
- Tiffani C.

Easy to install. Love that the blinds retract for when baby isn't in the car. The white hot button is also nice to see how warm the car is parked in the sun. Jan 23, 2019
