In the summer, when driving, does the cover also get really hot or does it stay cool?

It doesn't seem to get AS hot as my steering wheel, but still gets pretty hot. I try to remember to throw a towel over it before getting out of the car.

It stays the same temp as starring wheel, the pictures on this came off on my hands the first day. The seller made no attempt to rectify this situation either. I would not recommend purchasing this item.

It gets hot when car turned off, but not as hot as without the cover. And then, when you turn the AC on, it gets cool very quickly. So I would recommend getting it because it keeps the wheel cool when driving.

It gets hot but touchable. Worse, if you use The Club, it sticks to the wheel cover. I am sad because the cover looks cute and feels good but now I have little holes in the surface.

No it does not heat up like the steering wheel. It maintains cool and easy to manage.

My sister uses it to travel to work and back, but she lives where it reaches a high of 100 for summer. It doesn't blow cold air, it circulates what cool air there is in the car. So it would blow hot air around, if you don't have a/c.

No, it's for hot weather. The slightest breeze cools you off when you have it on.

The cover is vented. I haven't ever noticed a variation in temperature at all.

It isn't too hot unless you leave it sitting in the hot car without any air movement. The top is all mesh so I can put both windows in the back down and it creates a nice breeze for my dog when he is in his "den". My dog has never been so quiet as when he is in his "den". Love this product ... my 100lb GS does just fine !!!

I think it depends on your carseat. It covers my bucket seat just fine. The back is just a strip does not cover the entire back of the seat. I like it and does keep my seat cool.

I have not noticed it getting too hot. We went to the zoo on an 85 degree day and my son was comfortable especially being covered up with the awesome shade.

Yes it stays cool and doesn't get hotat all. Also, there's enough grip room to hold it with your fingers

My son has used this for 2 full years, so summer included, and it has never been too hot for him. If you park in direct sunlight, I would cover the seat as it is black and absorbs heat if the sun hits it directly. I just throw a small blanket or sweatshirt over it and it has never been too hot doing that.

No. Not at all. I had mine outside in an average if 70 degree heat and the cover rotted right off my car. I contacted the company and although it says it's fine in mild weather they don't recommend it for outside. Apparently this happens a lot as the customer service person knew exactly what I was talking about. Terrible product.

No, it is NOT normal for the booster to get hot. Mine has been in successful operation for over a year handling a good deal of traffic during the day.

As mentioned the cool part isn't just the cover in fact I doubt the cover has anything to do with that. It's the actual pillow on 1 side that stays cool. I've had this is another plain cover and yes it still stays cool.

I think the fabric has little to do with the temperature of the car seat. That said, inside of any vehicle is hot during the summer time.

Really depends on the outside temperature but in a car it is like a fridge and in 90-95 temps it stays pretty cool. I will check temp next time to see.

I keep it outside and the cover works fine. It is tight enough so I don't have to worry about it blowing away. I would recommend getting it.

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