I'm looking for a material to make a stroller shade. Is this very flexible or does it drape? Or is it stiff like regular screening?

The material is screening, we used it to replace the screen in our windows, but it is not metal screening so it is more flexible and would drape over your stroller.

It's pretty flexible. Not stiff at all. You have a great idea there. Good luck! Get a patent...sell it on SHARK TANK...and make lots of money!!!

it is a little flexible, and would drape. it's not rigid, but made of some kind of plastic I guess. it's strong and durable and works great as a screen against sun and bugs. I guess it's similar to a heavy duty drop cloth.

I used it to Velcro around chair umbrella, pretty much like a stroller umbrella & it's worked great. (Used them camping the last 2 weekends. No sunburn!) It's not fabric soft, but it is very flexible. My legs & arms brush against it without discomfort. Thanks for the idea... I do have a grandchild on the way ;)

no you should be able to do this its not as soft as cloth but it is flexible, I would think amazon has gotta sell netting for a stroller or at least the material

Hello Monica, As you have probably read from other customer reviews, the sun shades in this stroller are pretty much useless. I guess putting a blanket on top cover the sun quite decently. I bought this item because my pettite wife could not handle a 40 lbs stroller so this was a perfect solution.

Yes it is soft it is made out of Nylon.I am using the screen on a Easyup Canopy it is a little tight but does work.

Yes, EXCEPT is is a cloth type material and not metal like a screen door - perhaps it is like those screen curtains. However I have used it for 3 mos and it has held up well. It has a flexible metal loop around the edges some what similar to the collapsible sun screens you use in your car. Hope this helps - my only problem is get it to refold into original position but it is light enough I just slide it on and off my spa and guess I'll worry about refolding when time to put up this winter. Hopes this helps

First, light transmission through it is quite high. It is designed to allow germination and growth under it. Second, I don't see how it could be used a a shade cloth. This is not a woven fabric; it is just fibers pressed together. It tears very easily. Not suitable for tying or hanging above plants, no way a grommet will hold in it. It is designed to lay directly on plants, and it is light enough to not press down on them. This product compared to regular row cover or shade cloth is like tissue compared to writing paper.

I find it very easy to fold down/up. It's similar to those dashboard/windshield sun shields? There's this twist-twist-snap thing that you do when you fold them up. However, I find it convenient just to leave the sunshade on my MacLaren, and pull it back (like the way you do with the original canopy on the MacLaren) -- and the stroller will still fold nicely that way. I hardly take the sunshades off.

I ordered the black one and yes, the material was soft and wrinkled. Not exactly what I thought it would be, but at least it does extend the shade a little and is easy to fold back up.

Send me your email, and I can send you some pictures on how I attatch it. It should give you a good idea on how it works. However, this shade is so versatile, that I'd bet it does work on double strollers.

Yes, it follows the shape of your strollers existing sunshade so you can see them through the back. I've used it on jogging, umbrella and travel system strollers and can't say enough great things about it. It isn't waterproof. In light rain I have draped a receiving blanket over the top and baby hasn't gotten wet. It is completely adjustable and stretchy to really cover baby or be pulled way up on top like it isn't even there. I love this thing!

I would be more apt to describe it as woven vinyl than plastic. It is very flexible even in bitter cold. Very sturdy. Not something you can tear with your hands. You'll need a scissors.

not stiff like a lap pad but not thin like a cloth. somewhere in between.it will slide and bunch up if the baby is moving around.

It full similar to one of those window shades... it folds up in kind of a circle. I never really used mine because I could not get it to attach to the stroller correctly and also allow proper shade coverage. I ended up buying a baby jogger city stroller, and that has the largest shade cover ever, even when I am walking my little boy late in the afternoon.

It is flexible. You can roll it up pretty easily. It is a little curvy when it unrolls but it flattens out pretty quickly.

Janet, The fabric is decent qualify. It's not plastic, but it's not soft, good qualify fabric, either. I am petite myself and thought the product fit me well. No issues as far as dimensions. Although, I have to say, it is a bit of a pain to put on and take off. I am a new mom and would have preferred something that was not so time consuming. I don't use it as much as I thought I would.

I don't find it to be stiff, it drapes over the person wearing it just fine.

My stroller is not that exact brand, but very similar. The net is plenty large and from its design it appears that it would accomodate just about any stroller. We use it every day. It is very soft and airy. The baby has not experienced even a trace of sunburn, even on all-day outings. Good luck with it.

It's much softer, more like a cloth material. It's not stiff and drapes over plants well.
