Fully covers the windshield for a 2008 Toyota Highlander
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.

Cheapskate Approved
I've never bought one of these before partly from being one of those people that would rather just deal with the heat than spend extra money. However, as I get older I find my tolerance going down. I was surprised by just how much this thing works. No more burning my hands on the steering wheel when I don't have time to sit there for 10 minutes to let the AC cool it off before leaving. The whole temp of the car feels significantly lower than it would be without it. Over all, would buy again but this thing feels pretty sturdy so idk if I'll need to. I will agree with others though in that the size chart isn't completely accurate. I should've gotten a size smaller. It still does the job though

Gets the job done
I used the size guide provided for my 2019 Kia Sorento and ordered the large. It’s a little too big and have to put something behind it to keep the center where the circles overlap from sagging. With that being said, the sun shade keeps my car much cooler than not having one at all. It opens easily and is easy to put away once you figure out the folding. A bonus perk, this came with a sleeve to store the shade in as well as a steering wheel cover. It doesn’t take up a lot of space at all. I can easily slide it between the front passenger seat and center console.Over all I would recommend this sun shade.

More than one way to use it.
Why did you pick this product vs others?:This shade WORKS. I live in a southern state and my garage has a window. I have gone through many blinds that bend, sag and allow an unwanted person to peek into my garage. I hung this over my garage window and it totally blacks it out. It works so well that when I am standing on the outside of my window at night with my inside garage light on. Not a pinhole of light comes through. Zero. Nothing. It is an unconventional way to use it... But it works perfect.

Keeps your car cooler!!
This product is wonderful and works extremely well. It is flexible and easy to open and maneuver. It looks sleek and folds into itself to store when you're not using it. I did struggle with that aspect but they have a super helpful video you can watch. It also comes with a free wheel cover!

Its big
The sizing seems to be really off for this. The suggested size was a large, but I measured my windshield and went with the medium. Its still a little bit too big.Even so, I still use it and it works pretty well. It definitely keeps my car cooler in the summer heat. Wish it folded up a little nicer. but that is probably user error.

Pretty great product
Great product, needed this for my 2022 Subaru Impreza. The parking lot at my office is under direct sun light, no shade. This helped a lot. Car is much cooler. The steering wheel shade that comes with it works great in the driver side window for extra shade. Folds and stores super easy.

Good reasonabley priced shade
This is good, considering the relatively low cost. Keeps the car seats and dash cool. It doesn't keep the car interior as cool as my last one did though.It is a bit too long but it covers pretty well. And it's easy to fold. I love the free steering wheel shade with it too!
