I'm seeing conflicting reviews/answers on the sun protection of the Vent...How much protection does it actually provide? Think totally bald underneath

I have had no issues personally. I have a mowing business on the side and I have not burned at all.

It does not completely block the sun as, for example, a solid canvas would. Bur it blocks a significant amount. My deck is very sunny, and the sun beats into my sliding glass doors in the afternoon, so I do use it to block the sun. It casts a strong shadow, but does not block all light. You would not get a tan under this umbrella. BTW. I have had it quite a while, and it has stood up to the weather very well. Looks and works like new, even after being blown off my deck by hurricane winds.

For me, I never feel like my head is getting hot. It is perfect with the vents, it is enough for the air to come in and makes it like you are not wearing anything. You can never go wrong with this one. I promised. Good luck...

Direct sun nothing can take that over some time. here in GA, highest we get is about 104.. mine is under a pergola which still allows some sun. it should last you about 2 years in direct sun but most likely depends on how many times you take it on and off. me, maybe 8-10 times a year for parties. it is the best cover out but they all suck against mother nature

I keep it out completely exposed all summer and it's fine. I expected it to break after the first season because of the low price compared to the others. However this will be my 3 rd summer coming up and no issues. Enjoy! Wow I must saw the other answer and all I can say is I guess I was lucky. No negative comments here. FYI I live in the northeast so summers are 90-100 on certain days and it keeps cool.

While I agree with the other response that it does not stick all that well to the window (make sure you put the right side to the window), nevertheless I am grateful for it. I use it on my side windows and just stick it up into the window crevice. It is easy to put up and down. In this way I can have protection from the sun in the front and side. I have no idea if it blocks the UV rays; I just need blockage from the sun in my eyes while driving. I use it all the time.

I have the half windshield... and I liked it because it directed the wind up over your head. Dust NO! You'll get your backside pretty dirty. I recently installed a roof on it and now the windshield directs the wind right in my face... along with any rain too. Don't get me wrong.. I like it but didn't expect to get a face full. It does pull a lot of dust up from the back. I even tried laying the tailgate down... no good there either. I feel like a trail hand after a long cattle drive when I get to my destination.

It's a tan booster , I would most definitely wear sun screen underneath! If you burn naturally you will probably burn with this.

Easy to install well worth the purchase , and you will be happy for the vent cover !!!

The Exhaust vent is in a very good spot on this computer in my opinion. It would be very hard to plug this vent accidentally. The warm air exits in the middle under the monitor towards the screen side. I have done a lot of gaming and so far have not noticed any excessive heat.

Heat comes out the back. (which would be the bottom if you are trying to put the image on the celing) As long as you can keep the vent free of obstructions you should be good, but if you can't do that then you may have a problem.

I've had mine for over a year and it still works good even in the Arizona sun. If you're looking for minimal protection like to just keep things out of the elements this will work good. If you want some sort of anti theft protection look elsewhere. Hope this helps.

I live in Florida and is been pretty brutal the last few weeks. I've had this visor for maybe a week? At work, there is no shade I can park my car under, and mine hasn't melted. It does get pretty pliable after baking in the car all day, but so far, no melting. I don't know how bad it is in Arizona, though.

Visor generally works great, but I agree that it doesn't totally shield intense sunlight you get in the mornings and late afternoons when you face it. I'm not blinded by it, but I'm aware of it.

Yes, this worked very well for me, but be very patient and be careful with the vent side and do not put any pressure on the slots from where the air is blown out. Other than that, follow the instructions carefully so as not to break any contacts. This was really a good investment for me.

Unfortunately no, it covers the whole top of the canopy and blocks your vent/view window if you have one. It's also not waterproof as it is made with stretch lycra (swim/spandex) material. It is great for extending shade coverage, protecting your precious cargo from the sun :)
