Hi Hope,I'm not quite sure I understand your question. If you mean does it roll up like a window shade, the answer is 'no'. It does roll up when you are not using it and stays put with a piece of velcro. I really like mine. You unroll it, and place it on the windshield, then secure the top with the visors. Good luck!

The second item on the description said:Rolls up with a velcro tie when not in use

I don't know about all the shades but mine is also a rollup but it works very well.

I would have to agree with some other comments that this shade takes a little getting used because it rolls instead of folding. but once you use it a few times it really does go up and down pretty easy, and it really makes a difference keeping the car cool.

It also happened with me, and I like the foldable ones better myself, but since it fitted perfectly on my car's shield and works properly that I forgot about this.

We are pleased with the sunshade. It is a roll up, but we don't roll it up, we just fold it - which is great for easy storage. Once you keep using it, it becomes easy.

Hope ...apparently you didn't read *all* of the description. Found under the "Features":"Rolls up with a velcro tie when not in use"To answer your question:No, not every sunshade out there is a roll up.
931807
Yeah, mine is roll up too. Its not that inconvenient. However what I noticed is that it didnt fit my subaru 2013.
931808
Yeah, it's a roll up. I didn't like it at first, but got use to it. I use it every day. Once you get the hang of rolling it, it's easy.

WE have purchased sunshades for many different cars and they have all been "roll-ups"

It's a perfect fit and it comes rolled up in long box. I roll my shade up when I am not using it,it has a Velcro strap to keep it secured and put it back what it was wrapped in then back into the box it came in. I am going to buy side window deflectors, The deflectors keep out the snow or rain so you can crack open the window and let the fresh air in. I noticed when I cracked my windows a little with the shade it was a lot cooler, but if it rained it would get into my escape.

Sun Shade just slips over the GPS from the top. Should not interfere with dash mounting; with that being said, GPS unit is huge. I bought it for my RV. it would look strange in a mid size car.

Hi there, With the sun shade it comes with, it casts a long shadow. We take it to track meets and it is super duper lightweight to carry. It's just me and my daughter, but there are always people who use "our" shade. We just spin the pole to move the shade. It's not huge but shade is made bigger by the panel. You can also buy an extra panel for bigger shade. I love it!

The mounting is tricky and you have to improvise if you aren't mounting it the way it was made. My husband is very good at making things work in places most people couldn't. My suggestion is to contact coolaroo and see if they have another way to mount the shade. The shade is great and worth the effort. It's the only shade that we have had that can stand lots of direct sunlight without falling apart, plus, it looks good. kathyPS Looks like others know the different ways to mount the shade.

The shade should be fine in mild to moderate wind and rain. The manufacturer recommends that in a heavy storm, roll up the shade. The shades are porous, so a lot of wind will dissipate through it. But to be on the safe side, if you start to see the shade moving strongly even with it opened tautly, then roll it up.

I cannot see how this is hanging because the picture at the top is too dark. If this is the one that hocks over the rear view mirror post, we have had the hanger break off a couple of times trying to get it up and over. If it is the one that fold up out of the way on the sun visor I wouldn't know since we have not used that one. We have had to learn not to be in a hurry to get it on or off.

A sunshade hood came with mine, even though they made no mention of it. Stays on.Or you can use a Picatinny Protector & Mount. If you go that route, the hood won't go on.

I wouldn't call it a sunshade but it does have some kind of hatched grid that came with it and I don't have the slightest idea how it fits on or just how it's supposed to work. Best I can suggest is to call Nikon and question them.

No, but I use it on my 2013 C-Max and I really like it a lot. I'm not a huge fan of the roll up type of shades, but this one is very thick and does a great job of repelling the sun's heat!

It is on the right side, and I suppose it's a bit cumbersome to roll up, but Sunshades are GREAT! This is the third car I've bought one for, and it's worth every penny to have one that's custom-made for each model, esp. with the big windshield on the CR-V.

Ask a better question next time. You didn't state you were seeking answers from only those that have a solar system. Neither Dan M. or I were wrong - we just answered within the context of the item we purchased. Or, better yet, rather than chastise people who offer up their knowledge when asked and are trying to help you, leave it alone and don't say a thing rather than being disrespectful. Talking about people who should not post......

I guess that could be true as all the windows probably won't be covered. BUT...it definitely lessens the heat on myself after I put them up. I have even put one on top of another at times when I wanted more shade. They are so versatile, awesome and cheap! You can put them up quickly and take them down quickly (which I often do when we change direction and sun is in a different place or if blocking view for driver). I also often fold one in half and stick it on part of my passenger side window when I don't need the whole window covered. TIP: I found when I put them on the dash in the sun to warm up for awhile before putting them up, they cling better. Hope that helps!

yes, it comes with a 4 inch sunshade. i see someone else has posted that it comes with a 3 inch shade but the product i ordered and received, advertised and came with a 4 inch shade.

yes, it's the roll up style you can find in Walmart. this one fits the windshield perfectly and is of much better quality.

I emailed Orbit in regards to the sunshade for our new toddler car seat and they said they hadn't yet made one but would be soon. I don't have the stroller seat so I'm not sure if it's interchangeable.

short answer yes :) long answer is that I bought one of these when they came up as a lightening deal (9 dollars) fell in love with it and bought 3 more. What you can't see very well is that there are snap buttons (2 on each elastic side, top and bottom) that connect them together. I wish I had this for my other 2 kiddos. I would recommend this product to anyone over the pull down shades. And do plan on buying these for baby showers. :) I have had mine since Nov 2013 the others since Dec 2013. They are still holding up well. :)
