“This is the second time I have ordered easy to install very good”

“Loved them once fitted but found the clips very fiddly to attach to frame as they were so tight. But once done great! Previous over door shades have caused leaks and other suction ones are always too small for windows.”

“I purchased the full rear set for my MG HS and they look great. The shades are very well constructed and look like they will last well. First impressions are that they do an excellent job in reducing heat and glare for my rear seat passengers and dog. Fitting, however, was a bit of a struggle with the side windows and tailgate, and was nothing like as simple as the video instructions made it look. In the video, the shades just seem to slot nicely into place but, in reality, mine seemed just slightly too large which made it very difficult to locate exactly where they should be sitting. One of the side windows was particularly awkward and kept either fouling the window, pushing up the top rubber seal, or not sitting correctly and sagging under pressure. Eventually, I got it looking ok but only after managing to scratch the paint on my brand new car with a clip, and I’m still not fully convinced that I’ve got it right. I dread having to take them out and put them back in again! As a final grumble, although it is not in the vendor’s control, the performance of their courier was poor and my expensive purchase was left sitting outside my house in the pouring rain when it was supposed to be a signed-for delivery.”

“They were easy to fit except the two windows on the sliding doors where the clips wouldn’t fit under the rubbers so I used some sticky back Velcro now they are a perfect fit”

“Excellent product, fits well, feels very robust. Effective at shading from the sun, only bad thing is the fitting instructions are a bit vague.”

“Ordered a set of shades for our X3. Very nice product and service. These were the best solution for a few reasons: They fit inside the car so they don't get ruined by the weather. They fill the whole window area. And you can still open the windows as normal. Only issue I've had is the sticky clips don't last forever, but they are easily replaced. Very happy to have bought these instead of slightly cheaper option.”

“A great shade but let down by a very poor installation guide and a clip position recommendation that doesn’t hold the shade securely and risks scratching the glass. I have contacted the company with the offer to give better pictures and clip placement.”

“Hello. The car shades I bought for the BMW X1 were very well made and looked really good. It keeps the car cool and the kids love it. The reason for the 4 stars and not 5 was because the clips were not labelled or separately packed for easy identification as some of them looked very similar. The clips could also do with more rubber coating to prevent scratching the car’s upholstery. Cheers”

“Car shades fits window perfectly but the clips that hold it in are very fiddly to install.”

“Really happy with the car shades. Instructions could be clearer in terms of how to correctly install the clips (images are not great quality) also it would be handy to receive spare clips. Overall great product and delivered quickly.”

“Nice product as described and easy to fit as well. Only drawback I found was that they didn’t block out enough light, so I actually doubled up on the window for my son next to his car seat. Would be great to see different options as to how much light is blocked.”

“The car shades were delivered quickly and fit perfectly in my Passat. As others have said, the pictures in the instruction leaflet as so small and blurred it's very difficult to see how you put the clips on your car. After looking at a You Tube video I managed to fit the blinds and thery're great. Cheers.”

“Bought for a Renault Clio. The window shades fit really well (although would have been a bit more helpful with slightly clearer instructions). The rear window shades overlap - not sure if they should or not. Work really well though and keep the sun out of my little one’s eyes.”

“The shades are good. Rear shade is a little too dark so obscures visibility. Think it would be helpful to provide more detailed descriptions / pictures of the metal clips - and provide spares! It’s quite temperamental fitting the shades so very easy to lose the clips”

“They fit really well, I fitted them and noticed a little damage in one but I'm not sure if it was me or not but it would be a good idea to ship them in the storage bag just as an extra layer of protection and it wouldn't hurt if they were a touch less see through to block more vision off but overall a very nice product that fits well and looks great”

“Fit is really good on the window and works well at stopping the glare - it also makes the back of the car a bit darker which helps the baby to sleep! Only issue I had was that the clips were very hard to push into place on the rim of the shade. Also as one clip has to slot into the vertical bar at the edge of the window it would be useful to have the position of this marked on the shade as I had to take it off to reposition a few times.”

“The shades are ok but the fastenings are not very good.”

“The shades are a perfect fit for my car windows. They are not as 'dark' as the images on the website made them appear. They do allow fresh air in without the 'gale' an open window would create during travel. Putting aside the degree to which they create the appearance of 'blackened' windows, they are good value for money. Delivery was excellent.”
