Since there is no sun shade, what do you do to block out sun? Any recommended products that fit well over car seat?

You snap your keyfit 30 into this caddy and the keyfit 30 provides the sunshade -- and it is barely a sunshade indeed. We used a lightweight blanket draped over the keyfit 30 to help get the sun out of my baby's eyes, but, yes, this is a limitation of this system.

The sun shade on the car seat is pathetic. That's my biggest complaint with the seat. I used a Car Seat Canopy (bought on Amazon for $20), and that solved the problem. The caddy does not act like a full size stroller, so it does not have those conveniences. It's just an easy way to cart the tiny infant around. I only used the caddy for four months, until my baby was big enough to sit in a big girl stroller (she hates the car seat). If you want to use a stroller for a longer period of time, I recommend getting a full sized one and skipping the caddy. Hope this helps!

The Chicco car seat has a shade, but if you're looking for something bigger I bought a car seat canopy from carseatcanopy.com. If you search the internet you can find a code that'll get you the canopy for free if you pay shipping.

We did not feel comfortable on this seat either, but, rather then replace the seat we bought the 2x sunlite cloud-9, Gel bicycle seat cover, seems to be working well for us, just something you might consider rather then changing the seat. Hope this helps you Jason.

The pull-out view finder is small and not much shielding from the sun. Can try adding a rubber eye cup. Google in YT and check out how it looks to you.

I was unable to find a car seat larger than this one. Took an old outdoor lounge chair cushion, added foam to the seat portion, covered it with suede fabric and used the seat belt to secure it. LOL, it works OK

I have an ls silverado and I put them over the seat. I wouldn't put a seat cover over top of another seat cover. They fit tight so do it on a hot day they are easier to work with

Always use moisturizer. Especially with sun screen of 45 or 50. There is no particular kind. Whatever you prefer.

Yes to the sun visor, that moves to cover the kids' faces. No extra cup holders come for the seats- not sure if you could fashion one on your own...I haven't tried

The stroller's shade gets pushed down under the front of the car seat. I was able to pull the stroller's shade up part way over the car seat. I didn't try to extend it all the way because it was tight and I didn't want to damage the shade. I just drape a light blanket over the car seat for shade. My boy always falls asleep on our walks anyway.

There should be a couple plastic robes that are attached by straps. You tuck those between the seat and back rest. That is how the one I have works.

I would suggest getting something to hang on the seat in front of the backseat passengers. This is more less made for protection not comfort. →→I have never sat on it BUT will say it does not fasten to the seat. May slide around

I don't think there are any umbrellas that will completely block the sun out. The Coolaroo will provide shade like any other umbrella.

As others have stated, there is nothing but the car seat holding it in place. I would recommend you look at products designed to protect the seats from dogs. They can cover the entire back seat, though you make have to make some holes for the seat belts to latch properly.

I checked mine right at the plane. They tagged it, and put it below deck with wheel chairs and stuff. I'm not aware of a UV sun shade available for this. The shades are so thin, even hanging a blanket over one, it would probably touch their faces. You may want to look at little umbrella shades that can attach to the handles or something. Wish I was more help.

Try the "Sunshine Kids Ultra-Mat Ulimate 2-Part Undermat Car Seat Mat" or the "DuoMat 2-in-1 Car Seat and Mat by Kiddopotamus" Look for padded bottom and seat cover, so that it can be used rearfacing and forward facing. Either way they protect well. Skip the ones that only cover the seat because your child will kick the cloth and it won't be protected.

We have a cloth liner that we just tuck in around the seat with no problem,. You could cut a liner to fit around thec seat as well.

I have a Nissan rogue and it's very tight in my backseat. It blocks my blind spot no matter where I put it. I love the car seat but it's definitely huge!
