Excellent product! I had been using a towel to keep my daugther's car seat out of sunlight when the car was parked but I decided to try this and I'm so glad I did. It folds up really small for storage and has an elastic and toggle to keep it wrapped up in a smaller parcel. Most importantly, this product WORKS, it does exactly what it's meant to. Previously, when I was using a towel to cover the car seat, the car seat was still hot and the metal buckles were still quite hot to the touch as well. This cover keeps the car seat and buckles cool to the touch. Perfect! It keeps my daughter from being burned by the metal buckles and the uncomfortable feeling of sitting on a hot seat. Not to mention you shouldn't leave a car seat out in direct sunlight as it can damage your car seat. I would think this would cover any car seat on the market. My daughter's car seat is huge and it still fits great over it (I live in the UK so it's a European car seat called a Maxi Cosi Mobi and it's a huge beast!). I highly recommend this product, especially for the hot summer months!

I originally purchased one of these for my oldest daughter's car seat in early 2009. At the time, we had a Graco Snugride for her, and this fit just fine over it. We live in Arizona, and keeping the car seat is a must in the heat, and this product did a good job of keeping the car seat warm (instead of flaming hot) and making sure that the buckles didn't burn her when we came back. When she moved on to a big girl car seat (Graco MyRide 65), the shade still fit over it. We've used it now for two years and never had any issues with it tearing, breaking, or losing elasticity around the edges. We just purchased another one for our youngest daughter's car seat, if that tells you anything about how much we like this product! I gave it 4 stars out of 5 instead of 5/5 because it just doesn't fold back up the way the manufacturer claims it does. You just kind of have to ball it up, put the strap around it, and toss it back in the car.

it really does keep the car seat much cooler that the car! i could put my baby right in the car seat and go rather than waiting for 5 minutes until the car cooled down! highly recommend! =)

Absolutely a must have during summer. Works great at keeping the car seats cool. Fits all types of carseats, even the large Britax versions.

I live in the Phoenix Metro Area where the temps rise for at least 100 days of a 110 degree plus weather. Translation no matter nice of a car you have or car seat those buckles get HOT! Burning HOT! So with this purchase of this cover I can safely say that there is at least a 20 degree difference maybe more from the car seat chair to the Cars Seat belt. Now I only wish they would have something for the adults. ;'D

It sounds like someone needs to go into the business of creating the perfect backseat mirror for a carseat because there isn't currently a good one on the market! This was the best of the bunch that I tried, but like other reviewers it brought both a noisy rattle and very shaky view of our daughter along with the pros, not to mention completely blocking the view out the back window. Because it hangs off a boom arm, I found it much easier to adjust than other mirrors, and my favorite part is that my child does not appear to be miles away I can see her up close and very clearly. with the more popular model i literally could not make out her features or even see if she was asleep or not. Now to deal with that awful rattle and shake. Because this came the closest to being my favorite mirror, I took the time to test out some modifications to make it work like I had hoped. With these modifications I LOVE IT.

1/ unstitch the rather raggedy seam on the back to access the mirror. remove the boom arm (one screw) and remove the mirror from the plastic backing it should slide out to the right. then put a paper towel or some other light fabric between the mirror and the plastic casing to help muffle the rattle. put the mirror back in.

2/ glue the mirror to the plastic casing. it rattles in two places hitting the back (which 1 fixes) and hitting the notches that hold it in place. if you glue it to the frame all the way around it eliminates the second rattle. i just ran a bead of household glue around the outside of the mirror where it meats the frame. reassemble the mirror once glue dries i never sewed the seam back up no one will ever see it.

3/ take a piece of 1 or 1 1/2 inch foam and cut it to just smaller than the size of the mirror cut a small hole where the boom arm is and put it on the back of the mirror between the piece that attaches to the headrest and the mirror. this will absorb the shake and it is much more staionary.

4/ install the mirror on upside down in your car this keeps it from sitting up quite so high in the back (blocking the back window if you use it in the center), but still provides a good view of baby. if you are using on right or left this is probably not necessary.

pretty crazy for just a backseat mirror right? like i said, it's needs work, but if you haven't found a mirror you like yet and are willing to make some modifications this one works well.

I got this mirror about 3 months ago and love it! I have gotten a 2nd one for my husband's car. It was easy to install and hasn't needed to be adjusted from bumps. The mirror looks normal not like a funhouse mirror. It's very large so I can see not just my baby's face but what he's up to. I did research before I got the mirror and highly recommend this one!

This fit in my Honda Accord perfectly on the right back seat headrest. No problems installing it and I can see my 3 week old son while driving. So far I'm very happy with this product. The adjustable angle is the key aspect of this mirror. I am thinking about buying a second mirror for my husbands truck. I was surprised to see that the mirror was a dark gray instead of tan but that was a good thing since my car interior is black.

Honest reviews on Munchkin Adjustable Back Seat Mirror

This mirror has some serious design flaws:

1) The mirror hangs precariously off a 2-inch boom or arm, so it's extremely susceptible to vibrations caused by bumps in the road. The magnitude of the vibrations are amplified at the mirror because it's furthest from the fulcrum or pivot point at the base of the boom. The mirror is almost never idle (not moving), even though I tried different mounting methods that securely fastened the mirror to the car (per instructions). The end result is that your view of your child is always jiggling rapidly, as if you're driving in the middle of an earthquake. This requires more concentration and focus from the parent or driver, meaning your eyes are on the road less (and causing a safety hazard).

2) The mirror lens "floats" inside the mirror frame, and rattles against the plastic backing plate with every bump in the road. As another reviewer already mentioned, the noisy racket and rattling is annoying (and can even be heard over soft music).

Both of the above problems are dealbreakers, when there are other mirror products that do not suffer the same ailments.

retaining straps fail after prolonged exposure to sunlight (demonstrated in video)

Buy Snoozeshade Infant Carriers Deluxe Breathable Mesh Infant Car Seat

Customer Ratings:

I was sick and tired of constantly draping blankets and muslin cloths over the car seat to shield my son's precious skin from the sun and other elements. After a bit of research, I settled on this shade because it looked easy to use, was breathable, could easily be thrown in the wash, and had built-in sun protection. I'm so glad that I bought this shade! I've used it multiple times and even bought the bigger shade for his stroller. It takes 2 seconds to setup and we're ready to go. Once he falls asleep, I zip it right up and he's in his own little world. Plus, it's a great way to keep strangers from touching him, since he's zipped up and tucked away. It doesn't completely block out the sun, which is probably a good thing because if it did then it wouldn't be too breathable. It blocks out just enough sun so that even the sunniest of days won't disturb him. Unfortunately, he can't see out much while it's on, but I guess that's the trade-off. Also, it's a bit tricky to put him in or take him out of the car seat while this is on. It's much easier to place him in the car seat and then put the sunshade on.

It is an amazing product to keep out light, bugs, what have you....but it also keeps out visibility. When the black shade is closed, I can't see my boy at all. Other than that, awesome shade.

We spend a lot of time outdoors and on the go, which can be a challenge with our 6 month old baby. We live in Florida Keys where wind and mosquitos can be annoying, however in just a few days we've come to realize how useful the snoozeshade is for our little one. The cover provides ample shade from the persistent sun here in Florida. Most of all our little seems to enjoy the confined space when under the snoozeshade. By making his space smaller he seems more relaxed and happy. Thanks again!

Best Mountain Buggy Car Seat Adapter for Chicco Keyfit To Swift and Mini Deals

Customer Ratings:

First, the adapter does not lock the seat to the stroller. It absolutely makes it so you can't tip the car seat out of the buggy, but at no point is the car seat attached to the stroller at all.

Secondly, the instructions are lacking in clarity. Just a picture of the car seat already in the buggy. Now I can follow directions but a simple 1,2,3 would be appreciated.

My expectation (set by seeing videos on YouTube of previous models with seat belts as attachments) was that the adapter would secure my car seat to the buggy, it does not. Instead it provides a cradle for the seat to rest in.

So long as this is your expectation, then this will meet your need.

Ordered this despite being out of stock with expected delivery of anywhere between 1-3months and pleasantly surprised when it arrived at 1month! Snaps on easy like the bassinet attachment I already had for my swift. Chicco keyfit car seat clips in easily and seems secure. Although still waiting for use by baby no2 I am glad I didn't have to buy more new equipment than this and can use my existing stroller.
