Made to fit? Maybe, maybe not.

One set was perfect. The other set was not the right fit for my vehicle but despite repeated requests for a refund, none was offered. I watched dozens of versions of the installation videos trying to install correctly and am convinced that the shades sent are incorrect. Note this for 2023 Mercedes GLC300 - they don't fit!!

Love the Fresh Air Circulation

While the care is parked at my house, I love that fresh air can circulate through my car in the summer without insects (mostly flies) getting into my car. It also keeps dust out as well.

Works exactly as needed

We purchased shades for our Subaru Forester (rear passenger windows and port windows), since we travel with a toddler and infant who are sensitive to the sunlight. They quickly and easily installed right into place, and we have used them for several months without having to adjust them. They’ve worked perfectly for keeping the sun out of our kiddos eyes and I’m wishing I had bought them earlier rather than trying to use some awkward fitting suction cup baby shades that constantly fell down.

Only thing I’d caution on, is that keeping a shade on the drivers-side rear passenger window does impact visibility a bit when you’re looking back to check your blind spot; we have blind spot detection on our vehicle as well so it’s not a major concern, but worth noting.

Terrible experience

Terrible experience. My order was 2 sets of the same item. Got 1 set but not the other. Sent emails and called with no response. Only a credit card chargeback got them to send me my second item. Even then it was to include the travel bags which I never got.

Sorry for the bad experience, we made a mistake on packing your order. But I'm glad you got through to us and we were able to send that extra set to you. We do have a phone number to contact at 833 609 6303 if you ever need us. We'll continue to improve our customer service response time.

We hope you enjoy the quality and protection of the product! Hopefully you can change your mind from a 1 star to something higher to reflect the product.

The shade generally fits my 2014 Tacoma, but not nearly as well as advertised. It’s good enough to stay in position though I had higher expectations from watching their videos.

Happy with our snapshades

Overall very happy with our snapshades, they do a great job of keeping the sun out of our baby's face. The only issue we've run into is contouring one of our shades to fit snugly against the bottom of the window. Because the magnets are only at the top of the shade, the bottom must be contoured to fit the window, and after many times adjusting it, we continue to have a small gap between the shade and the window bottom. This is only happening with 1 of our shades, the other fits perfectly.

Beware of folding to put in carrying case

Fits great into the window. However, when I tried to fold the shade to put back in carry case, it bent the shade, leaving it to no longer fit perfectly.

Product is great!

The shipping was easy and product is great - it keeps the sun out of my daughter's eyes and face in the car. The fit is near-perfect in my car as well.

Not a great fit.

Not a great fit.
With a name like "Snapshades," I expected these shades to fit better into the space that they occupy. The shades came with magnets to help hold them in place, but there isn't a great place in the windows to adhere these magnets, and not guidance as to the best way to place them in the window frame to get the best fit. I followed the instructions and video as best I could, but still feel like the shades do not quite fit in the space as well as expected, even with a little flexing of the frame.

The shades are also directional, in that the front is a little shorter than the back, but not enough to be seen easily by looking at the shade. I needed to add something on my own to be able to tell the difference when something could have just as easily been included on the shade to indicate which end of the shade goes towards the front of the vehicle and which goes towards the back.

Guaranteed to fit but it doesn't

Nice guy in customer service, but we went back and forth many times about whether or not there were two separate shades for the Volvo c30 (one with a cutout for the rain-sensing windshield wipers, one without). It showed two options on the website. I was sent the one I didn't choose. Like I said, nice guy but he basically said, "The other option doesn't exist. Deal with it or send it back." No leeway, no goodwill on future purchases, nothing.

Hi Casey, sorry if we made you feel this way. Just to clarify, we admitted to an inaccurate listing and acknowledged that we didn't have the shade for your exact model to exchange. So we provided you with a prepaid return label and full refund.

We would have loved to have the right one for you! Considering the above factors we hope you'd reconsider your 2 star rating to something higher!

Shades didn't fit my vehicle (2021 Lincoln Navigator L) - there's a good 1" gap. For $115, I expected them to fit snug if not perfectly.

None of the magnets actually stuck to the door even after cleaning with alcohol.

Hi Andrew, sorry about that. We realized we had a listing issue and our Navigator rear door shades only fit the Expedition despite sharing the same door. We do guarantee fit, and so please reach out to our team for a return refund.

Hopefully we can turn that 1 star to something higher to reflect our fitment guarantee and customer service.
