UPDATED: A very light (no pun intended) recommendation.
UPDATE (1/27/2020): It's been a few months since purchasing and it's finally broken apart (see updated pictures). I stand by my original review: this thing's pretty cheap. It's a novel idea, but you can accomplish the same task with a regular old sun shade that requires folding up after use. Get the technique down, and you can fold in/out quickly. This suction cup accordian-style shade SEEMS convenient, but it would regularly lose suction, which would require me to reattach every now and then, and of course finally breaking due to frequent extension/retraction. I think you could pass on this and save money on a plain old fold-up sun shade.It's ok. The suction has come off a few times while pulling and retracting the visor, which means I have to be a little more delicate with the whole thing every time I use it. If I'm being honest, using a traditional, fold-up sun shade takes about the same time and effort (sometimes less, if you've mastered the art of folding them up after use) than trying to pull this retractable shade across the windshield and attaching it to its opposite suction cup without risking loss of suction power. It actually feels like a step or two more work, come to think about it. Plus, though it doesn't provide full coverage of the dashboard, it does do its job of providing general protection from the sun. I've attached several pictures so you can get an idea. All in all, it's not bad. It does its duty, but you have to be careful with it. And I understand it looks cooler than a basic, cheapo sun shade. It gets a very light (no pun intended) recommendation from me.**Oh, one more thing**: sometimes, upon retraction, the shade doesn't quite retract nice and pretty, as you can see from my final included picture, hence my earlier comment of having to be delicate with this thing.

does not last
I bought this less than a year ago and the handle came off. There is no way to fix it, once the handle comes off of the two little screws, you cannot put it back on.. I like the product but I expected this to last longer than what it did.

Read the Instructions, it looks simple enough, but read them anyway.
I thought I might break it because of the Tension but it held up. The Suction Cups slid a little bit, but as I mentioned in the headline, Read the Instructions..... about how to prep the Suction Cups for better performance.It seems like a lot of trouble for a Sun Shield at first, but once it's up, leave it up on the far right of the windshieldand it's easier than reaching in the back seat for a shield and fussing with the Visors to keep it up.

Had mine for one year - still works!
I do not understand all of the bad reviews. I have had this product in my Nissan Kicks for just about one year. I use it everyday and have had no issues with loss of suction or failure to retract. The quality is good - the material is sturdy. After 11.5 months, though, the little plastic tab that holds it in place when open broke off and I simply added a binder clip with an elastic hair band which works great! I removed the binder metal "clips" (easy to do) and it has held great. I will probably buy another unit to replace this one though. I highly recommend this shade. Tip: if you have issues with the suction, simply clean your inside windshield and also wipe the suction cups with Windex - both get soiled over time and will prevent suction. A hot window will NOT prevent the suction from working - in fact, it helps the suction if you have a warm-hot window! A cold window, however, may affect the suction in the winter if you need to use the shade. I like my unit - it has been working great for the past year - no complaints!

Shade attachment to driver side suction cup fell off and cannot be replaced
I was so very happy with this sun shade when I bought it in Sept. 2019, but 8 months later it is no longer useful. Owing to surgery I did not even drive my car for 2 months, so I got 6 months' use from this auto shade Sept. to May, which are not even hot months. I had only a little trouble with the suction cups losing their staying power, but when the hook that slides over the driver's side suction cup fell off, it could not be re-attached and thus the shade becomes useless. I wanted to write a more positive review, as the concept is great, but I cannot recommend an item that needs a manufacturing correction.

Easy to use with impressively high quality
I’m incredibly surprised at nearly every quality of this product, so I decided to write my first ever review on Amazon. The shield is made of very sturdy material that I would not feel worried that the daily dragging would deform it or hurt the elastic bands inside it. The main stem also feels sturdy and of high quality. Super easy to install for once and then to use for a loooong time, especially for people who are lazy like me who don’t want to do the setup work or folding on a shield for every time a sun shield is required. You basically stick it to the right of the windshield and then drag it to the left when needed to block out the sun. When you return to the car, simply take off the left side suction cup that anchors the shield and let it bounce back to the right. Each time it just requires like 3 seconds of effort, so much better than other types of the sun shield I used to use (and then abandon soon due to the tremendous work they have to take). Every day with the shield sticking to the right of the windshield, it’s barely noticeable and not to mention to affect driving. 100% recommend.

Broke after only 3 months of light use
I was very excited to find this product. I remember my dad installing something similar in his car when I was younger. I liked the idea of not having a huge bulky cover floating around in my car during non use. However, today I went to use it and the plastic clip completely broke free from the screws holding it together. I don’t use it everyday but I do use it regularly. I’ve had it installed for only about 3-4 months and it’s already unusable.

NOT FOR DAILY USE
Broke after a week. This shade is more for a Sunday car. If you use it daily it will break on you fast.
