Hi everyone, I wanted to follow-up on my experience with Snap Shades and explain that I do not believe they should be trusted and you should be incredibly careful when purchasing from them.
You can read above that I was not very happy with the shades, which, not surprisingly, left me grumpy. The more salient point here is their website described the Safari shades to "Retain full functionality of car windows when stationary with Snap Shades installed. Car windows can be open partially for ventilation when driving." Now I'm not a lawyer, but it sure sounds like I should be able to open and close my windows without having the remove the shade. Per my experience and customers service, the shades cannot be in place while opening or closing the window. Following my complaint, they seem to have removed this description from the product page.
Where Snap Shades becomes malicious is their refusal to refund the original shipping cost or pay for return shipping for a product that they know they misrepresented.
I can forgive a company for offering something that maybe isn't their best designed product, and I can even look the other way when they say something incorrect, but then take it back without issue. However, Snap Shades goes above and beyond to say it's my responsibility to pay for their poor behavior. That's a lifetime strike from me, and I hope you feel the same.
) A good purchase until more aftermarket options show up - goal is not to block the sun but filter its intensity thru the windows. 17"x14" as squarely positioned as possible.
