Great little investment for little ones

Bought the SnoozeShade before our week in Lanzarote because we knew we’d be dealing with long sunny days, hot weather and late evenings. It was honestly one of the best purchases we made!

It kept our little boy safely shaded during the hottest parts of the day, and with the extra sleep layer he napped so well. I also loved that the sleep layer can be removed and neatly tucked away into its own little pocket when you don’t need it – such a thoughtful design.

It helped us keep him in his usual routine while protecting him from the bright sun, making days out so much easier.

We paired it with the Momcozy pram fan, and together they were the dream team. Cool, shaded and comfortable – our little boy couldn’t have coped better in the Lanzarote heat.

I genuinely couldn’t recommend the SnoozeShade enough. The only thing that would make it even better would be if they teamed up with Momcozy to offer a bundle, because together they’re an unbeatable combination!

So useful for the summer months

First shade sent to me had a scratch on it (which looked like a cat had scratched it) but a replacement was sent to me really quickly and it’s been so useful to have during this really hot summer. It’s helped my baby nap whilst in our stroller and provides peace of mind regarding insect bites and sun exposure! Would definitely recommend.

Great, reassuring product

During the heatwave this summer we fashioned all sorts of combinations of muslin cloths, shawls and even bits of clothing to try to protect our toddler from the Sun. I wish I had just bought one of these sooner! The great UV protection, secure attachment to the pushchair and breathable, lightweight mesh material really reassured us that our toddler was getting the protection he needs whilst also not baking in an enclosed space in the heat. After watching the instruction video to attach (bottom poppers around the wheel sockets!), the fit on our Nuna Triv was really secure, not slipping or tugging. The pocket to keep the front panel in is a great addition to make sure nothing gets caught on the wheels. It’s clearly been designed by someone who’s thought carefully about what features would actually be useful to a parent whilst out and about. Also a special mention for customer service: the cover arrived days earlier than what we were told to expect on the website and when I had a question about the product I got a very speedy response from the ‘Chief Sleep Officer’ herself. Highly recommended!

Advertised as fitting cots that take a 120cmx60 mattress, it wasn’t anywhere near the right fit for our little ones cot, there was a good 5-6cm gap.

Even though the advertisement is completely off and not our fault it didn’t fit, we were epxected to pay return postage. We’re now waiting for a refund to be issued which has run 2 days over the advised 10 days.

I would have reordered had the returns process been handled better but now won’t touch this conpany again.

Check the measurements before following the advertised sizing as clearly is not reliable and be prepared that if you do need to return it for any reason, you’ll probably be waiting 3-4 weeks before you get the money back.

Better naps and easier in the sun

I bought this as I was sick of fighting with a parasol to block the sun from different angles as I walked around, especially when there was a breeze. The Snoozeshade is great for this and I even better my baby naps better too.

I would just point out that I thought 3-in-1 meant there were adjustable functions for dark, sun protection and mosquito net, but there aren’t. It’s one cover for all. The pram does get warm underneath so I’m often fiddling with it to allow air through and it can blow about as mine can’t be attached with the straps at the top.

Saying all this, I use it every day and wouldn’t go out without it especially this summer
