Perfect fit, stay cool!

They played a big part in reducing the amount of heat that passed through the skylights in our RV. They are easy to install and look like they came with an RV. If you want to stay cool, this works great!

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Hard to say

THE BEST Best on the outside

There is a skylight just above the bed in our camper that has been driving my husband and I insane for YEARS. I don't know why we didn't buy it sooner but it was worth the money. Super easy to install and very easy to use. We love it and I can only recommend it.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Requires an electrical outlet

Blocks Light

I bought two of these lampshades to keep out the light coming in through the skylights in our RV bedroom. They work very well. I wish they had made one about 8 inches longer to cover the skylight in the shower. This would reduce much of the heat entering the interior when direct sunlight passes through them. They seem fairly sturdy and align with the screw holes on the skylights so I didn't have to drill new holes and was able to use mounting screws to install them. The tabs on the mountingโ€ฆ

Great idea, but there are a few design issues.

Like the others mentioned here, they do not completely cover the hole. I think someone who didn't understand RVs measured the inside of the opening. The fabric hangs down slightly and leaves a slight gradient. Second, the fabric is still somewhat transparent. Do they work at all? Of course. And I use mine. Making them great would be easy. Make them a little wider (they still mount the same way). And maybe use a different material. It's a shame because the concept is really good and travelersโ€ฆ

Seals smoothly and quickly!

I bought it for our bedroom ceiling window in the camper. Although the window doesn't let in much light, we still hope that this will be enough to eliminate strong heating in summer and maintain an even temperature and lower light at all times. (we love the coolness and the dim lighting in the bedroom). It is very easy to install. We removed the screw from the frame as recommended and installed it quickly and easily. I took a 3M hook, hooked it to the outside of the window frame and attachedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Everything was great

easy to install and effectively darkens the room

Good product with subtle room darkening. It's not 100% but still better than using tape and cardboard which fall off in the middle of the night waking you up and defeating the purpose of darkening the room. Another cool thing is that since it is attached to the ceiling, you don't have to worry about storing another item or else it will be lost. Ease of installation. It comes with mounting screws, but as my air vents were recently replaced I reused my existing screws and used the ones that cameโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Empty

Works for us on covers

We also bought this to use in our caravan to cover the vented window in the roof. On the front, we installed this retractable ventilation screen. It was really easy to install by simply removing the existing screws holding the frame in place, lining up the holes in the screen and replacing the screws and wall. It has a small screw that can be added on the other side to keep it closed. It works like a curtain in a house, just pull it out and when you're ready to close it there's a little buttonโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Some difficulties

It works very well as a cheap retractable lampshade

It works very well as a cheap retractable lampshade. Seriously, what do people expect for like ten bucks? What I expect for the money is a cheap plastic product that basically does what it says on the tin and if not abused will last a year or so or little use before breaking and needing replacement. they that i bought suit me. I used them to shade windows in my RV doors. I needed a shade small enough to fit between the door and the screen door, so it had to stick out an inch or less. They fitโ€ฆ
