How well does the sun shade cover the child? Also, is there a kickstand or anything that can be used to set the pack down with the child in it?

The shade is wonderful. I use it in the bright Colorado sun. There is also a kickstand.

Shade works Well, still good hat for the brightness of the day helps. There is a full bar across the back you can get it on and off by your self.

The sunshade with removable plastic (for rain) side flaps provides reasonable protection from sun, except when the sun is lower on the horizon. Your own head blocks some sun from this angle. Yes, there is a kickstand for setting the child/baby down and also to use it as a chair, when one is not available; however, do not leave the child/baby unattended with the chair feature. This pack was used for an Alaska trip for a 1-year old last summer and it worked great, even in the rain.

Yes, the shade is that, shaded, however, you can see through it. In myopinion you can see out (child's view) than looking in through the net (you looking into the stoller). It's not super dark as when the sun shone on his stroller and into his eyes I had to move the canopy to block the sun. It was nice at that cabin on his pack 'n' play as it shaded the light inside a little bit.

The sun shade was not included in ours. We bought ours about 4 years ago and it has been worth every penny. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one. We use it all summer long and it is everyone's favorite. My boys are 7 and 9 now and they still love it. We pile 4 kids on and they have a ball. Worth every penny!

My daughter is 3 years old and 43inches and she sits comfortably. (not sure how tall your child is) The sun shield is adjustable, so its not a huge issue. Honestly though, most of the time, when we use the stroller, my daughter is in and out very often to explore and check things out. So its not like she is sitting on the bench for long periods of time. Hope that helps!

It's at my inlaws' house and I havent seen it since summer, but i DO think it fits easily into a biggish suitcase. It packs flat and in it, my baby loved being in the water for extended periods of time - which would have been impossible otherwise. (you'd have to hold your kid and it's not that easy!) The canopy was a VERY useful feature to block out sun.

Hi Erik. It's pretty small so if your kid is not into running around within it, then it's fine (ie just sitting playing w a toy etc) and it's plenty tall such that they can't get out of it. Much lighter and easier to assemble than a pack n play. You need to get a sheet for it too, remember .

My daughter is using this tent as I respond. She has a 7 month old and has used it many times on Sullivan's Island and Surfside Beach,SC. So far she has been well protected. I also bought the portable , clip on battery operated fan to keep her cool . She has been very happy with the tent.

Once it was windy and I used a couple if cheap tent stakes but no it stays put. I would recommend a large tarp under it. Keeps kids socks clean and extra protection between the ground and bounce castle. Love this castle!!! Very durable, well worth the money :)

Hello hope all is well. I bought this for my then 15 month old boy. Now is 24 month old and still fit nicely. Only one thing with the front tray is to not use lot of clothing that can squish the legs. If is a big boy I suggest to not put the tray but to snack. Its not heavy and to fold it needs practice but in general it worth the price. Two position for child to sleep and canopy that doesnt bother him at all.

Ours is on a covered porch and handles the weather nicely, we have it hanging with d-rings so if the weather is bad we take it down. We would totally recommend, our grandson loves it!!!

We used it in our grass area but never left it outside. There is tarp like material on the bottom that is durable, but you could always put down a real tarp to help protect the material. It is not as durable as a real tent but for kid play on a soft area like grass it was fine for us.

It should come with its own canopy, which should fold down into a small bag like a camping chair. It provides shade, and some protection from rain, but windy storms will still get rain on whoever is inside. My wife has taken our kids walking on a trail during rain, and its probably better to just let them get wet and not worry about the canopy.

The red can close the child into their own little room with cover. Nice for winter hiking or bright sunny days when they need shade. I bought the red for $120.... after owning it I'd be willing to pay $150-160... $300 is ridiculous. Check Ebay and they're trading for $80.

Keeping the "shade" part open to just have the netting covering your baby should keep it cooler inside. Putting the solid covering over will make it quite warmer in there. I wouldn't recommend that during summer heat

My daughter is 16 m.o.,and we are using the stroller every single day,rain or snow. Sometimes for few hours. My girl loves it. The seat is secure and comfy, tbe canopy is really big and protects well from sun/rain. I do have few things i would want to be different .1. The storage basket is tiny, almost unusable.2. No snack tray for baby, no cup holder for parent.3. It is hard to fold the stroller,impossible with one hand.

the way ours is set up the kids face the same way as the slide when on the swings- we have a wall behind the swings and there is about 5 feet beyond the farthest that any of the swingset parts reach so the kids still have plenty of room not to hit the wall...FYI this is our 3rd year with this set sitting through the Arizona summers 120+ degrees in full sun all day and it still looks great! very durable. Money well spent!
