Once you have this adjusted for your vehicle, how do you store it safely when not in use, without collapsing it back down to its in-box configuration?

I just loosen the strap which frees it from the door and just wrap them to keep from getting scratched and store it in our travel trailer when not using them. I do not completely brake down. They just kind of fold up.

Robert, I remove the adjustable mirror arm with the mirror attached. I store the mirrors in one of the forward compartments in my Wells Cargo enclosed trailer. I leave the mounting brackets set as the configuration is the same on both my trucks, and set them behind the seat of my 2500 Dodge, or the slide storage in the rear of the Dodge Nitro.

Hi Robert, I simply loosen the strap to remove it from the door and store it "as is" inside my camper. That way, I don't need to re-adjust it each time I use it. I may end up getting a plastic tote that it would fit in and keep it there when not in use.

Hi Robert, I have two canvas bags, I put one in each and hang them in my storage shed. This way I don't have to re-adjust them each time.

I just lay them in the storage compartment of my camper. I make sure they're sitting on top of anything else that might be in there. 2 years later, they are still fine.

Robert, I easily stored these in my garage by hanging them by the strap, I simply hooked the metal bracket off from a ladder I have on the wall. I do not break them down all the way.

When you loosen frame to take it off, you only have to give it an inch of slack. It will then go on easily and can be tightened to where it needs to be. It helps to pad strap where it contacts door to avoid wind vibration and friction.

I don't, I have a large garage and I hang it on my pegboard. Or you can put it on it's own shelf in a storage cabinet.

I have a special attachment on my key ring where I am able to tuck in the drive. Understand your concern about exposure to dust and moisture. So far, so good.

Is it ok to store in the vehicle? I read the manual and it says never to let it freeze and store at room temperature.

Pull down those 2 black tabs & push the front panel towards the inside. Do the same in the back. The sides will collapse on their own.Hope this helps. I use a bungee cord to keep it together when collapsed

In my case, it stayed behind the head unit, inside the dash. Out of view and hidden. There's usually enough space for it to be wedged in.

No, I also have an Escape and if you move the passenger seat up a bit it fits fine. Also, you can always drop the back seats down and store it in the back.

you would have to semi disassemble it to store it. It is a great product though!

I haven't tried to store it but the legs should collapse if you take it down

I would put it in an milk crate and secure the crate to the truck. Also put something In the crate to restrict it from rattling around

No, I collapsed mine just fine with the car seat adapter attached. It sticks out quite a bit so it might be difficult to put in a trunk. I have a CRV and it it fit fine in the back.

I keep mine in the car and have not picked it up. It may fold into itself if I did that.

You probably need screws; strong velcro would work too. I actually keep mine in the glove box.

This item can be stored flat or upright. It is important to have the lock in place for security.

Twist (like you would a jar top) and turn it. It will go down and then secure it by turning it into place.

Yes, we've done that. It folds up easily and locks nicely in position. You'll hear a bit of rattling around back there but nothing to worry about.

we watched a video,lol. My husband folds it in half (longways) and starts by grabbing the bottom and cramming it into the storage bag...just keep cramming! don't try to be neat, stuff it and stuff it. It all fits in ! We have done it several times, don't be gently :) good luck !

The best way to transport it is in the trunk of your vehicle. Remove. The basket and lay it flat in the trunk and it shouldn't shift or unfold again.
