Prompt windsheild sunscreen

I am strongly considering getting a prompt sunscreen for my new motorhome. Had snap on before and wasn't crazy about need for ladder. This looks like great solution. I will have mid door so that is not an issue. Anyone who has one who would be willing to share an opinion?

We used our for many years before buying our current coach. It worked great and looks good too. The people are great to work with as they will send material samples or replace any parts in question. They are nice to look through when facing the sun. They also help keep the coach much cooler. We left ours on for three months every year in the strong sun and after eight years they look like new.

We've used ours since 2004 - easy to put up. We went with the dark brown after being in a couple RVs with light colors. The dark color gives a crisper image of things outside. We'd definitely recommend them.

Keep them on year around-I assume you live in motorhome year around but do take them off when traveling between stops.

I have had dark brown and beige, to color match the trim on our coaches. Both obstructed the view into the coach during day light, NONE will provide privacy at night. I think the dark colors will draw more heat in during the day, so that is one consideration.

Wonderful. Those are strong endorsements for any product. Anyone have any preference for color based on functionality? I am thinking black as it seemed to screen out viewing from outside and solar heat very well. Of course not very scientific as it is the only color I have had.

I have had the prompt sunscreen using the kwik klips since 2006 instead of the suction cups.

Just did not want to deal with potential suction cup failures. The commercial type prompt uses may be trouble free.

The Kwip Klips have been trouble free. The rubber straps can be easily replaced if needed. Mine have had a lot of full time use and still work great.

I will be able to use the clips so suction cup won't be an issue. Think I will go with black.

Still using mine purchased in 2002 no problems, go for it good product. I find if I use a damp paper towel and clean area for suction cup before putting down the suction cup no problems with it coming off even in heavy winds. I keep mine in the basement of MH in 4 in. white PVC pipe with push on end caps.

Been using them since 2000 and very satisfied. They stand behind their product and it is easy to install.

I have had mine since 2005. I would recommend them based on no holes to drill but the suction cup does release sometimes. No big deal.
