Magnelex Car Windshield Sunshade | Innovative No-Light-Pass Technology for Maximum Protection | Foldable Sun Shade Keeps Your Vehicle Cool | Fit for Cars, Trucks, and SUVs | X-Large (65.7 x 36.4 in)

Subaru Tested: I bought this Magnelex sunshade in June 2025 specifically for my 2018 Subaru Outback, and it fits great. As you can see in my photo, it provides excellent coverage and stays secure under the visors. • Temperature Control: It makes a massive difference in lowering the internal temperature. It was a lifesaver during the hottest months last summer, and I’m still using it every day. • Long-Term Performance: Since I've owned this for nearly a year, I can confirm it holds up. It hasn't started to fray or lose its "pop" when you open it. It is still in great shape after months of being folded and unfolded daily. • The Folding Trick: It’s very easy to fold up once you get the hang of the "twist" motion. It collapses down small enough to tuck away between the seats or in the door pocket. • Pros: Proven durability (9+ months), perfect Subaru fit, significantly reduces heat. • Cons: There’s a slight learning curve to the folding, but it's easy once you've done it twice. • Bottom Line: This is a high-quality shade that actually lasts. If you want to protect your dash and keep your car cool, this is a solid investment.

I've ordered this for our newly purchased used Highlander that will be parked outside in a hot summer environment. I've had previously used poorly fitted sun shields that were way too small, or just didn't sit in the windshield properly. My purchase criteria was to find one that covered the whole windshield without any gaps. I ordered this sun shield based on the product description and the fact that it had various sizes. I input my 2008 Toyota Highlander in and it said the Large size would fit. I ordered this in the evening and it arrived the next day, so I was able to use it immediately. Overall, the sunshield did in fact fully covered the windshield in my Highlander. I was able to block out all of the sun light, except for a small patch by the rear view mirror. If there is one flaw, it is that there is not a cutout to go around the stem of the rear view mirror. So what happens is that you just have to push down the cloth where the rear view mirror stem goes and make sure to minimize the size of the opening to prevent any more light from entering the car. But that is a minor thing, considering the shield fully blocks the sun at the edges of the windshield. After using it, the car did still feel warm inside, but significantly cooler than without the sun shield. The sunshield also includes a little cover for the steering wheel. There is a flap at the top of the cover that you can slide over the top of the steering wheel. To be honest, it looks a little funky when the steering cover is installed and I'm not quite sure that little cover is all that functional other than advertise the brand of the sunshield. You could get away with not using it. The main benefit really comes from a well fitted sun shield that keeps the car cool, prevents sun damage to the top of the dashboard, and the effects of sun on the seats. Folding this shield can be tricky. I read the instructions, but you are better off watching the video on the Amazon product page. You have to fold the sun shield in half first (the right half and the left half), then with the two halves on top of one another, do the twisting thing. I was able to do it somewhat successfully, although most of the time I'm just going to take the sunshield, fold it in half, and throw it into the backseat. I wanted to order a sunshield for my other cars. However, it said that those cars (Camry, Lexus GS450h) also needed a six Large sunshield. I've seen some reviews from Camry owners that said the Large was too big and they ordered the Medium. I have taken this Large size sunshield and tried it on my Lexus GS450h. Although I made it fit, it was clearly a little too large. The vertical dimension was perfect, but the horizontal dimension (length) was too long. In this case, if you have a GS450h or a Camry, the medium size would be a better choice.

It's a sun shade and it works. You can instantly feel the temp difference when you put it up on a hot sunny day. Pretty easy to put up and fold back down. If you have a passenger you have to be carful not to hit them when putting it up or down (easer for them to wait outside while you do it). Fit very nicely into door pocket thing when folded. When in the windshield does not quite fix left and right so a little light get in at the sides. Fits great top and bottom, you almost don't need to put the the visors onto it (BUT I still put them down to be safe). I've only had it for about a week and the electric strap is still good BUT it feels like it can break at any time (But if the strap breaks; I can just use the bag it came in or a really big rubber band) Tip: Always look to make sure the electric strap is hanging down before you fold it so you can easily find it when your done folding it.

Second time buying this product and it hasn’t failed me. Love that it gives me privacy and actually keeps my car cooler. It is easy to put up and it has lasted me a long time. Hasn’t scratched my windows and tucks back in easily.

My first review was a but negative because the shade i recieved was coming apart already right put of the bag. I was going to leave it at that and fix it on my own. But Customer service reaches out and was very appreciative and apologetic on the honesty and condition of my ordered product. These guys were great and more than happy and willing g to get me a new replacement free of charge. That being said... the shade I'd great and fits my 2011 Caliber. Based on the size chart it seems a bit too big but it still works just fine..im able to tuck it into the grooves harping the windshield and it stays up without having to use my sun visors which are occupied bmwith other gadgets or holding documents. Quick and easy to deploy and install and just as easy to take down and fold up and tuck away for next time. The price is great and im a happy custimer.... with the product and with the customer service. Support like that deserves 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

In terms of the sun blocking/car cooling effects, this product seems to work pretty well. The reason I’m not rating it higher is because of Amazon’s “does it fit?” feature. I put in the make, model, and year of my car, considered and dismissed other options that I thought would work better, and ultimately purchased this product all because of that feature only to discover after opening the product that the window screen is actually too big for my windshield. Even now, when I check the listing, Amazon tells me it will fit, that smaller sizes won’t fit, etc. But it’s too big to the point that I have to bend the frame to prevent the screen getting shut in the car door when I close it. I’ve also had to use the visors to hold the top in place because it wants to fall out of the window since the screen’s frame is oversized for my windshield. I was happy with the price, the screen seems well-made, and I love the inclusion of the steering wheel cover—such a nice feature. Apart from the inaccurate sizing, the screen seems to work well. It’s definitely effective in keeping my black car cooler—probably by at least 10 degrees. It’s also easy to install (or it would be if it fit appropriately) and easy enough to collapse and store. Overall, I’m satisfied with the product, just not thrilled with the fit. I would recommend measuring your windshield and going by the numbers rather than trusting Amazon’s estimator.

I can't say enough positive things about this car sunshade – it's an absolute game-changer! From the moment I started using it, I wondered how I ever survived without it. This sunshade has become an essential part of my daily driving routine. First and foremost, its effectiveness is remarkable. It effortlessly blocks out the harsh sunlight, keeping my car significantly cooler even on the hottest days. I no longer dread getting into a sweltering vehicle after it's been parked outside for hours. The reflective material works like a charm, and I can feel the difference as soon as I step into my car. The design is well-thought-out and practical. It's incredibly easy to install and fold up when not in use. The compact size when folded makes storage a breeze, and it's so lightweight that I hardly notice it's there. Plus, the sizing options are perfect – it fits my windshield snugly without any gaps. Durability is another standout feature. Despite being exposed to direct sunlight and constant folding, the sunshade shows no signs of wear and tear. The build quality is impressive, and it's clear that this sunshade is built to last. One of the added benefits I've discovered is its privacy aspect. Not only does it keep my car cooler, but it also prevents prying eyes from peering into my vehicle. This extra layer of security is something I truly appreciate, especially when I have personal belongings in the car. Lastly, the stylish design is a bonus. It's not just a functional tool – it also adds a touch of flair to my car's interior. The sleek silver exterior looks modern and clean. Overall, this car sunshade has exceeded my expectations in every way. It's a small investment that has made a huge difference in my daily comfort and convenience. If you're looking for a top-notch sunshade that's effective, durable, and easy to use, I wholeheartedly recommend this one. Five well-deserved stars!

Great product and works very well. Easy to use and easy to store in a small bag. There is also a bonus gift—a cover for your steering wheel.
