How's this cover under sunlight? Will it be very hot?

well, the sun does not appear to be an issue; it gets to 100 degrees here pretty regularly but these are mesh so they dont really hold the heat; not a problem

Hello, It will still hold the warmth; however it will not be as warm as if it were in full sun.

A previous responder said about 40%. That sounded too little to me, so I just checked; considering straight up as 90 degrees, this goes to about 45, so the other answer is about right. In eyeballing it, I would also say you would not get full sun if it is directly above you but most of the time you can have full sun, moving it a little bit, if you need to; it is very light and moves easily.

It is a pretty thick fabric so I guess it would hold up to sunlight. I covered it with mulch and stones when I used it.

Hey there Ms Amanda Well I actually bought that steering wheel cover for my lil brother as birthday gift. I can not answer this question based off of my own experience BUT I called my lil brother and he said even when his car is sitting directly in the sun the steering wheel never too hot to touch just a lil warm. So all in all I say this is a great buy for the price. I hope this answered helped. :-)

I haven't noticed it getting hot but I have cushions on the seat. It doesn't seem like it would get too hot but my patio doesn't have direct sun. The chairs seemed to be higher than typical bar height and were a little tricky getting in them. It looks great sitting on my patio hahaha

I didn't find it hot. I had it comfortably adjusted to block out light and still had air circulating. And it never felt sticky. The material is smooth and satiny, so feels good.

no-it is very comfortable, although I have not used it in direct sunlight. I do use it in 90 degree weather in the shade and it is very comfortable.

I don't think it overly traps heat, I don't think it has a cool gel. In the summer will be the true test

They do get hot, but as long as I remember to drape it with a sheet (fitted crib sheets work great!), it shades it from direct sunlight and we have no problem.

yes, but it's designed to protect from the elements so expect it to be warmer beneath

I live in the central valley of Ca. During the summer the sun will blacken exposed 2x4s. The point being that those UV rays eventually win. We have a horse trailer with a fiberglass roof and I bought one of these four years ago and one year ago. Eventually the sun wins, I will buy another of these covers in a year or two. In other words, I am happy with it, but the sun will win.

The cover and sides gets very hot to the touch- However, to answer your question, there is negligible impact on the ambient temperature

It's hard to say if it will be too hot for you because I don't know what the ambient temperature you want it for. It definitely is lighter and cooler than my lightweight genuine down duvet.

Took this tent to burning man last year, which is daytime temps of 85+ everyday for 10 days -- stood up very well to the wind, the canvas kept the playa (the fine dust) out and we had a battery powered fan going inside the tent for when we needed to knock out during the day. We had our tent pitched in the shade, and it worked out well for us. I won't say it was particularly pleasant to be inside during the hottest part of the day, even being in the shade with a fan, but it worked for us. That said, when this tent is closed up and in the sun it heats up mighty fast. If you don't have any shade to put it under and it's going to be 85 out I would recommend something that isn't made of canvas -- if keeping cool during the day is important to you.

It's pretty dark, but doesn't really seem to heat up too much in the sun! My kid stay comfy in there.

So far we have had no problems with the cover. It is in the sun for most of the day.
