   Does anyone have one?? Are they easy to use?? Do they fit on any pram?? I think i'm going to need to get one with the amount of walking I have planned for this summer, but I don't know if it will fit on my pram (its an old model Mothers' Choice one - 3 wheeler). Can anyone help?? |

   Hi I bought a universal one and it fits my 3 wheeler. I use it a lot, am out nearly everyday. Yes it is fairly easy to use, it has velcro straps everywhere though (cos of it being designed to fit any pram) but after using it a couple of times I got the hang of it. The make is out look.
 Edit cos I put the wrong make

   I got one from baby city.. universal one as well. Next time you are round here you can try mine on your pram if you want. It's good cause it protects them from the miggies, sun and wind etc.

   I got a valco universal sunshade and it has "flaps" as well as antireflect mesh.  cost me $48.  I had been looking for a universal one for ages and our farmers and red shed haven't had any in for a long time.  I really like mine, easy to use and folds up into a pouch.

   We have the outlook one and it fits well on our Mothers Choice 3 wheeler.  I would be checking out the universal one though cause I find ours a bit of pain.  So many little velcro straps and it's a mission to get to Sam if she loses the dummy or the hat goes over the eyes   |

   I bought a universal one yesterday from Winkalotts and it seems to fit well on our 3-wheel Steelcraft stroller.  It was $45 with free delivery & arrived the same day I ordered it.     It's an outlook too & has a zipped section at the front for easy access to baby if needed.

 ETA: sorry I don't know how to post links properly.
