The best cover I have found
Not perfect, but a good fit on our Graco click connect 35 carrier.The sides have small gaps where the handle is attached to the carrier and the bottom does slip down sometimes making it difficult to zip, but overall we are pleased with how it fits.PROSExcellent protection from bugs and the sun.There are 2 separate parts: The mesh bug screen zips all the way around and is made from the same mesh as car window shades.The sun shade is silver and stores away in a zippered pocket until you want to use it, then it unrolls over the top of the screen mesh and is secured with a snap closure. Roll it back up again into the pocket when you are done.The cover is zippered , which is super convenient for getting baby in and out without having to remove it.Keeps the bugs off my baby which is a must have in Texas.Keeps the sun off her face and out of her eyes.Does stop people from touching your baby, although I have never had an issue with that.Allows baby to still see the world around her, unlike the fabric covers that just drape over the front.Folds up and stores neatly into a zippered pouch when removed.Good color combination. Looks like it actually came as part of my carrier.CONSNo sun protection on the sides so I have to constantly adjust the position of the sun shade to compensate for this. This means that I can't secure it with the snap and if there is a little wind, I have to watch it doesn't get blown out of position.The zippered part could do with opening a little farther back. It is hard to get baby in and out easily. I have to tip her back to get her head under the cover first, then ease the rest of her in.Getting her out is a lot more difficult.The mesh cover snags easily. We have a few unsightly pulls on ours and we're not sure what caused them....and really, that's all.We have been using it for 2 months now and I wouldn't be without it. It's definitely worth buying and I would recommend it.

Works, but parents need to be attentive and aware.
This product has done what we asked of it, but I cannot help wanting more from it. Some things to think about when considering a purchase:1. This does a great job of protecting your infant from mosquitoes or other bugs. It is not 100% protection because the elastic can leave some gaps, but it still does a great job in my experience.2. The sun shade does a good job so long as the sun is coming from the front or back of the seat. If the sun is at a side angle, it will still shine on your infant. While taking walks on sunny days, we had to pull the shade from side to side to block the sun.3. This point is a bit unavoidable, but something you may want to consider. With the sun shade in place, your infant will have a limited view of the world around her. Up to a certain age it likely will not matter as infants may not be interested yet in things at a distance. However, now that my infant is getting a bit older, she wants to see everything. The shade prevents that.4. The shade can trap heat. Be careful using this on hot days. Even though the cover has mesh sides when the sunshade is in place, I have noticed my infant can still get hot. On hot days, we use the shade as little as possible. I do not know how hot it gets below the shade, but I have noticed a difference with the shade pulled back as opposed to snapped into place. When hot, I keep the shade down only when necessary and for short periods (like from my car in a parking lot into the supermarket) and check the baby once we arrive to ensure she is cool enough.5. The elastic band that secures the cover into place on our Chico infant carrier can interfere with the latches that connect the carrier to the base in the automobile. You need to be sure the cover is out of the way when placing the carrier in the base.

Not great, not horrible. Pretty significant design flaws that could be easily remedied.
It's a decent product. But a little flimsy & there's no sun coverage on the sides, so if your walking perpendicular to the angle of the sun, it still shines directly on baby's eyes. We rigged up a system whereby we hang double clipping carebiners from the two buckles that secure the sun screen on the sides so we can pull down one side & clip the other end of the biner under the elastic band that encircles the base of the cover, & protect her little eyes from the sun. The zipper is flimsy and was in fact dysfunctional when we got it but I was able to get it back on track. The sun/rain cover is quite loose, and flaps around quite a bit with any wind, as it's very loosely held down with three snaps on strips of nylon webbing that have a lot of play in them; one attached to the bottom/front of the cover, and one on each side. This was very surprising, given the photos that give the appearance of a snug/sleek/tight cover. In any sort of driving rain, or decent strength wind, this is not going to hold up really well; catches the wind and flaps around. That said, it's not a horrible product. I'm just continually surprised that there aren't more designers out there who test their products in the real world (as it seems the designers for Thule do). With just a few modifications, this could be a great product: straps/snaps that hold the rain/sun cover down tightly so it doesn't catch the wind like a sail when buckled down, & shades that extend or lower over the mesh on the sides so they cover baby when you're walking in any direction that's not directly towards or away from the sun. I wouldn't buy this product again, but can't complain, as most people in the world have more serious things to worry about like affording vaccines for their children, & keeping them fed and safe.... First world problems should be taken in stride! We use this product, & it's useful, & user friendly, easy to leave in place all the time & pull down to cover baby when needed. So I'm glad we have it. I just wish we had something designed with a little more thought and attention to detail.
