So, I grabbed these magnetic car shades hoping they’d be a game-changer for road trips and naps. Here’s the real deal:

Fit Issues: First off, the sizing is a gamble. Amazon said they’d fit my car (spoiler: they didn’t). The rear shades were comically oversized, and the fronts? Not even close to matching my window shapes. Double-check your measurements, folks!

Sun Blocking: When they *do* fit, though? Magic. The material is thick enough to block sunlight like a champ—no squinting or sweaty seats. Privacy is solid too; nosy parkers can’t peek in.

Magnet Drama: The magnets are strong… until they’re not. They slide around like they’ve got a mind of their own, and after a few weeks, some just gave up sticking altogether. Pro tip: Don’t use these with windows down—wind turns them into kites.

Installation Headache: If your car has non-metal frames (looking at you, newer models), these are basically fancy trash bags. You’ll need to open doors to attach them, which kills the convenience.

Verdict: Decent for short-term use if you luck out on sizing, but don’t expect longevity. Maybe stick to old-school suction cups if you drive in windy areas or have modern windows.
