1.0 out of 5 stars Not so great, September 10, 2010

This fan simply does not move enough air to be effective. It's a good idea, but even in full sun the fan isn't powerful enough to keep the car cool. I removed the fan and used a windshield sunshade and the sunshade made a big difference.

I installed the solar coolar as instructed - and though I have tinted windows (tinted shade that was recommended by state of Missouri) and the fan responded immediately. I have to leave my car in a exposed area and it gets extremely hot - this device really helps. I use it along with a sun reflector shade.

2.0 out of 5 stars Fan power is too small and ineffective, September 8, 2010

Tried the fan for a week. Didn't make a difference. Product is advertised "to keep your parked car cool and comfortable upon re-entry"... fails to do that! Can barely feel the fan (really can't feel it but I give it the benefit of the doubt). Needs full/direct sun. Doesn't work even with a small tree leaf in the way. Item looks sleek and very nice. Great idea. Wished it would work the way it was advertised to... but sadly it doesn't and will return it back to amazon.com. Purchased for $28 + FREE SHIP.
