4 out of 5 stars Works   August 19, 2007

Unlike another sunshade product that I purchased, the suction cups on this one work okay -- they still come loose occasionally, but not very often. Since the sunshade rollers have an adjustable length lock, it removes tension from the suction cups -- which helps the suction cups stick longer.

Even better than suction cups, the shade rollers have small clips that can be hung over the top edge of the window, which provide a more secure mount than the top suction cups.

If the over-the-window-edge clips are used and the bottom of the shade is left loose, instead of anchored to the window with a suction cup, the window can be rolled down to within about an inch of the windowsill without having to dismount the shade.

As mentioned by another reviewer, the sunshade does not cover the entire side window -- so it may be only partially effective at times depending on the angle of the sun. However, all the side window sunshades that I have seen are this size (plus or minus an inch) regardless of brand. Since there is no "standard size" side window, the manufacturers have probably chosen a size that will fit most cars.

While sunshades are helpful, they are not a perfect solution to protecting young children from the sun in cars. Parents still need to be vigilant.

We were given these as a gift. They are pretty small and the "First Years" logo on the outside is huge. There are probably better products that won't make your car feel like a moving billboard.

Kind of small, doesn't quite fill up the rear passenger window of a Toyota Camry. Nothing special.
