We don't normally try to sell you stuff here on our blog but today we're going to make an exception! The product we want to tell you about is the
Outlook Auto Shade. It's a product we've gone out of our way to source and have just launched on
MicksGarage.com. The reason being, we've used the Auto Shade on our own cars, for our own children for nearly 3 years and we reckon they're the best kids sun shades that money can buy!
We also reckon we're in a good position to judge what's good and what's not because we've tried all the alternatives.
We've had the roll up type which hook over the top of the window.
We've used the type with the suction cups.
We've even used the beach towels and blankets, wedged into the window frame.
...and the
Auto shade outperforms them all by far.
Here's what makes the Auto Shade so good:
o The only universal sunblind that covers the whole window for complete protection from the sun
o Screens 90% of UV, including UVA which can penetrate untreated glass.
o Window can be opened for ventilation with shade fitted.
o Makes it easier to see DVD screens and games consoles.
o See through mesh lets kids see the world, cools and reduces glare.
o Quick and easy to attach/remove, fits most makes/models of four door cars.
o Outlook shade products are approved by the Skin and Cancer Foundation Australia

Review:About the reviewer: mother of 3:Having a large people carrier I have found the usual stick on sunshades too small for my windows- they end up in the wrong place for the angle of the sun or fall off or are pulled off by little hands....then along comes this fantastic car sunshade which stretches over my large windows with ease and provides full sun shade and excellent sun protection.
The packaging and instructions are clear and straightforward. The shades are quick and easy to fit and remove and the bag they come in can be used for storage when not in use. The window can be opened whilst in use and then flying critters can't get in either!
My older girls aged 7 and 9 learned quickly to appreciate the shade they provided as we have used them all summer on our holidays and days out; and my 2 year old boy has not been able to pull them down!
The packaging shows the product to be endorsed by the Skin and Cancer Foundation of Australia and state that they block 90% of uv and glare with a upf 10. It is recommended they be removed in prolonged heavy rain probably because they go over the seal of the door so may allow leakage if it is really heavy rain...but really they come off so quickly and easily and in this country heavy prolonged rain is not associated with sunshine so they probably wouldn't be on then anyway!
If you are doing a lot of reverse sideways parking you may find your vision impaired and rear view mirrors should be used. I did not find this a problem myself but the packaging does mention it. The packaging also states they are not suitable for use on sliding doors.
Overall despite initially looking a bit pricey I would definitely recommend this product as they more than pay for themselves in how well they perform making them value for the money! An excellent product!
