We found a breathable stroller shade! Not only is this jumbo stroller shield the largest we've seen, it's made of woven, air-flow fabric that keeps baby cooler! UPF 50+; blocks 98% of UV rays. Designed in Australia (need we say more?). Attaches easily to any canopied stroller, and it's wind-resistant. With mesh side windows for added ventilation and visibility. Folds up small; carry bag included, or you can leave it attached to your folded stroller. Pediatrician recommended. Imported.

Like that it provides extra shade. Could have better ties for attaching. Ties need to be longer or should be adjustable with quick snaps or clasps.

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

We use this shade on her stroller for walks but if the sun is too low it doesn't help. And since it "pops open" it is hard to secure it back so that we can see our daughter and she can see us when the sun is at our backs. All and all though it is the best sunshade accessory we have found.

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

It takes a few minutes to get all the ties in place, but once the shade is on our Maclaren stroller, it stays put. It kept our baby out of the hot Atlanta sun on our vacation.

Great idea poor durability

By Milwaukee Mom

from Milwaukee, WI on 9/6/2009

Gift:

Pros:

Practical

Cons:

Flimsy

Best Uses:

Strollers

Describe Yourself:

First Time Parent

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

Provides great sun protection, fairly easy to use with different strollers. However, after about 10 months of use, the wire ends poked through the fabric and the shade became unusable. Great idea but don't expect it to last.

Cute shade cover

By TampaNatives

from Tampa, FL on 7/22/2009

Gift:

Pros:

Easy to Set Up, Lightweight

Best Uses:

Infants, Toddlers

Describe Yourself:

First Time Parent

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

I got this to extend the shade area for our travel stroller. Does provide a good bit of shade, but his legs and feet still hang out in the sun. Just have to be extra care to keep lotion on those.
Also, I wish it did not have to be taken on and off every time we folded the stroller, but it is not a complete pain to attach.
People at the zoo were asking left and right where we got it! And the kids were too .... they were like "Mommy look they have extra shade"

I love this sunshade! It is lightweight and folds up nice and small to fit in any bag. I can take my son out at ANY time of day and the sun doesn't touch him! No worries about sunburn for me! I recommend it to all new mommies I know. It does take a minute to tie the straps on, but it is worth it!

Love it!!!!

Cons:

Hard To Adjust

Best Uses:

Car Seats, Infants, Toddlers, Travel Strollers

Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

This shade is wonderful. My only complaint would be the attachment straps... you have to tie the straps to the stroller, and if it is not tight enough, they come apart. Other than that, it's a wonderful addition to my daughter's outdoor sun protection accessories

One Word, Awesome !

By BK

from Huntley, IL on 3/16/2009

Gift:

Pros:

Durable, Easy to Set Up, Easy to use, Lightweight, Practical

Best Uses:

Travel Strollers

Describe Yourself:

First Time Parent, Traveler

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

I just ordered another one, because I lost my first one. This thing is awesome !
Perfect for traveling. We have the Cielo Evolution Stroller and with little effort this sun shade can be manipulated to cover nearly all of my daughters legs. It is light weight, breathable, and I have used it on our Chicco Cortona stroller too, with much success. The only MINOR Con would be collapsing it back small enought to fit it into the carrying case it came in. A little tricky, but otherwise I would highly recommend this sun shade for sunny days or cruising around the hot Walt Disney World Parks in Florida.

Great purchase!

By Meredith, mom of all trades!

from Coconut Creek, Florida on 3/9/2009

Gift:

Pros:

Lightweight, Practical

Describe Yourself:

Parent of Two or More Children

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

My 6 month old son outgrew his infant carrier, which has wonderful shade protection, but we were reluctant to take his McClaren stroller out in the middle of the day because it seemed like the sun was in his eyes from almost any angle! We purchased this item and it is wonderful! I would say about 95% of the time, regardless of where the sun is, he is protected. It only takes a second to tie it on, and it is quite durable, even when strong winds are coming at us, the worst that happens is it wavers for a second. Reasonably priced, and a great buy, and after 2 boys, I have a very good sense of which products are good, and which are a big waste of money!!

Compact Sunshade is for Strollers

By KT's Mom from Irvine, CA on 3/1/2009

Gift:

Pros:

Durable, Easy to Set Up, Lightweight, Practical

Best Uses:

Infants, Toddlers, Travel Strollers

Describe Yourself:

First Time Parent

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

I don't understand reviewers who give low scores for products when they are not using the item correctly. The description states that it's for a stroller, not a carseat. There is a completely separate sunshade for carseats...

For strollers, this shade is great.

worth the money

By Kimberly

Pros:

Durable, Easily Stowed, Easy to Set Up, Lightweight, Washable

Best Uses:

Infants, Toddlers

Describe Yourself:

First Time Parent

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

Good shade, makes taking walks funner because the sun is not my little ones eyes. It also provides shad on the side without comprimising visibility. A plus for toddlers who want to see everything. It is a lot sturdier than a previous one that I bought. I like that it stays put in a gentle breeze.

Describe Yourself:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Protect-A-Bub Compact Sunshade:

Its a great product but works best on strollers with a full size canpoie. On unbrella strollers, the front protion tends to sag down.

However great for infants/toddlers who like to be out in the sun.
