Could be easily improvedReview by Derek, 2010-08-18
Our newborn baby loves to go on walks. We're using our Chicco KeyFit 30 car seat with the snap and go until he gets a bit bigger. Unfortunately, the KeyFit has a dreadful sun shade. If it were capable of remaining fully extended it may be able to do the job but it always seems to collapse down quite a bit. We tried using a receiving blanket to cover the seat, but it would often blow off in a stiff breeze or otherwise shift and expose him to the sun.
The UPPAbaby bubble solves this problem - almost. The sun shade covers only the very top of the bubble. If you are walking directly into or away from the sun, your child will be in total shade. Otherwise, sun will still get in through the mesh on the sides. Sure, some of the harmful rays will be filtered through the mesh, but is that enough? I have no idea, and I don't intend to find out. What I end up doing is leaving the top sun shade unbuttoned at the front, allowing me to position it to shade the sides. I have to adjust it every time we change directions on our walk.
This isn't a deal breaker, but it's an unnecessary hassle. I don't understand why UPPAbaby couldn't have made the shade unfold to be just a bit wider than the top of the bubble. This simple change would allow full sun protection. It works marvelously as a bug protector and also has the ancillary benefit of keeping strangers hands off of my kid. It'd be a 5 star product if not for the questionable design decision.
Love it

I love this item. When I first ordered it I changed my mind and wanted to cancel the order but it was too late. I'm happy I didn't. It does exactly what it says - it shields the baby from the sun and bugs. I like that it is compact and had a pull down part for extra sun protection or privacy - I use it to keep prying eyes out of the baby's face. It is light weight and good value. I wish it came with a rain cover and also that the sides fit a little better on my graco sung ride so no space would be left on the side for a stray bug to enter. I would buy t again it given the choice. It looks really cool!
A must have baby item!!!! A great find!!

I am so glad that I stumbled upon this item! it is so worth it and an excellent product! I have a graco quattro tour travel system. It fits the carseat very well. Although there is a slight gap on both sides on the bottom of the carseat but you just have to stick a blanket in both openings if you want total bug coverage so nothing gets inside.
I love that you can easily access the baby with the two zipper front.
I love that it is sunshade and bug control and netting all around so that baby can get air good and not overheat.
It is very stylish and compact. It is however, somewhat a pain sometimes to fold...it can take a few trys before getting it to fold down right. but fits flat and great to stay in the stroller basket.
I have also tried fitting it on the actual stroller without the carseat and it does work! however my baby is only 4 months old and does not have legs/feet hanging down that would push on the bubble to pop it off.
it works I love it and wish that uppababy made one for the stroller!
excellent product and very much worth every penny!
Just what I needed!
Review by H. Baldwin, 2010-04-16
I have been looking for a way to shield the sun from the rear window of my car for months now...I found a solution and this is it! Not only does it block the sun from the rear window for my little one in her car seat it also blocks it from the side as well. Since I live in Alaska it is so difficult to get any and all suction cups to stay on a window due to the cold. This shade is just the ticket! I love it and highly recommend it!
A must for your infant car seat
Review by JB, 2010-04-14
We use a Graco snugride infant car seat and the UPPAbaby shade fits perfectly. I find the shade more convenient and easier to store than the stroller plastic rain cover. With the UPPAbaby infant car seat shade you avoid the wind blowing the rain cover, the blankets and any items inside the car seat. You also avoid having strong sunrays peeping through the canopies. The shade also shields my 2 month old son from our two shitzus and from stares from strangers so that he can sleep more peacefully. The car seat has a canopy which fits under the UPPAbaby shade for added protection from the sun, wind and rain. I would have given the UPPAbaby 5 stars if not for the zipper which opens half way instead of all the way to make it easier to put the baby inside the car seat without having to remove the UPPAbaby shade.
With the UPPAbaby infant car seat shade you don't have to worry about the weather conditions when you step out of the door with your baby.
