I don't know what I would have done without these awesome window shades. My electric bill was sky high in the summer until I put these in, about 12 years ago. I live in the mountains and my house is on top of a small hill, facing almost directly west. There are no trees on that side of the house to block the sun coming straight in in the summer. Until I put these shades on the windows, I couldn't cook at all in the summer because my kitchen was just too hot. Buying these was the best decision I've ever made. I have them on 3 windows and I just recently ordered new snaps to replace the old ones. The screens are still in great condition after all these years.

We needed window coverings for 3 large odd shaped trapezoid windows in our great room. The available options for traditional window coverings were very limited and really didn’t achieve the look or function we needed. EZ Snap was our solution. The ability to custom trim EZ Snap to fit our windows was a definite plus! We’ve had the product installed about 3 weeks now and are very pleased. EZ Snap blocks the sun & heat with out blocking our view. The filtered sunlight is perfect. Super easy to install and affordable as well. Online ordering was easy, customer service was very helpful and the product was shipped & delivered to our home quickly. We highly recommend EZ Snap.

The EZ Snap is surprisingly easy to install, even to a non-DIY. The product was delivered quickly and everything needed was included. The product was chosen for two very different reasons. The first, and most obvious, is the Florida sun. We needed to reduce the UV rays that were pounding our back room. When we moved in there was a similar product already installed. It was white and was showing signs of age. We weren’t impressed with it! We ordered a EZ Snap black screen as a replacement and are very happy with it!

The second reason for the purchase is our home being on the 11th fairway of a golf course. The house has been hit by golf balls by really bad slicers. About two months ago one of our large windows got hit, resulting in a shattered glass. We had previously considered replacing the entire wall of windows with new, but we needed something to reduce the chances of breakage. Our window salesperson made a unique suggestion, installing a shade screen at least 1” from the outer surface of the window. With the strength of this screen, most of the kinetic energy should be absorbed prior to the contact with the glass.

We did the research and found that the way the EZ Snap screen is designed, it should do the trick! We have not been hit yet, but feel confident that this simple solution will be the answer.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my EZ Snaps! I have been using them for many years now and they are as strong now, as when I first applied them. I just bought more in order to cover my last two windows, with screens and EZ Snaps, that get our very hot afternoon sun.

It helps to cool my house down at least 10 degrees!

I am so impressed by these snaps and how easy it is to take them off, in the fall and then replace them again in the spring. Thank you!

I purchased two EZ snap for the back windows on our house.

I'm seriously impressed with the results. My husband had no troubles at all with the installation.

I bought these for two reasons. One, they really cut down the heat in the state of Georgia. Two, they make our windows look nicer from across the lake.

I highly recommend EZ snap!

We will probably purchase more before Spring 2024. If you're on the EZ snap website reading all about it just go for it. I promise you will not be disappointed with your purchase. EZ snap is a really great product.

PS. It was so easy ordering off the EZ snap website. I didn't need any assistance at all concerning what size we needed. If you need assistance just call them up. They really do stand by the product.

WOW WHAT A DIFFERENCE IN THE HOT SUN OF FLORIDA WE INSTALLED ON 5 WINDOWS FROM THE INSIDE YOU SEE OUT JUST FINE AND THE TEMP DIFFERENCE IS AMAZING THANKS SO MUCH FOR A PRODUCT THAT WORKS

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Kip... nice to hear that EZ Snap is keeping you cooler in Florida.

Hi, I live in southern New Mexico and this summer was brutal. We live in a 1971 mobile home. We removed the metal siding and replaced it with wood siding however, the bedroom has 5 windows, 3 of which face west. Even with 2 fans blowing all night, it just never cooled down in there until close to morning.

I saw your ad on Facebook and decided to check your site to see your reviews and your prices. Even though the cost was a bit over our budget, I made the decision to order the black screens with the wind proof fasteners.

I made sure my husband installed the screen correctly and come evening, could already feel the difference in that room. I am so glad I took a chance and ordered from you.

We are happy and satisfied customers!

Georgia Davis

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the positive review and photo. Nice installation job! Great to hear EZ Snap is keeping you cooler in New Mexico.

I am not one for doing reviews but this product deserves one in a very good way.

I did have a concern that did not become an issue, the box had collapsed during shipment putting creases in the fabric. However after installation you could see the creases from the outside but not the inside so there was not a problem.

Instructions and product parts packaging first class. Very impressed with quality of fabric and parts.

Thank you

Hello,

Wanted to let you know I put my window shade up today and could not be happier about it. It is amazing!!

Thank you,

Diana S.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for letting us know Diana!

OUTSTANDING. My EZ Snap window cover has been nothing short of amazing. Wish we had it years ago.

Used to cover West-facing master bedroom window that was still bringing lots of heat to the upstairs despite custom reflective film on the window + solid sun blocking curtains. Previously, the upstairs would be a good 10-20 degrees warmer than the rest of house in the summer.

With the EZ Snap cover, even without the curtains and temperatures over 100 degrees, our master bedroom is FINALLY comfortable in the summer!!

My husband was very skeptical, but helped me install (I could've done myself it was so easy but high ladder needed)! Day one after install, it was upper 90s and sunblock curtains were off… my husband walked upstairs and said “WOW, it’s so much cooler upstairs.”

Look is professional (we do need to adjust one corner to fix wrinkle but very easy). HIGHLY recommended.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for

Product is Easy to use and fast to install.

You can easily take it down in the winter and store it away.

I’m happy with the way it looks too.

Justin

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the positive review Justin!

EZ Snap was easy to install and is making a difference in the temperature inside our home.

We are pleased.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for sending us a positive review and photos.

We were pleasantly suprised at how simple this product was to install. Once all the cuts were made installing was a breeze.

It not only looks good but has most definitely helped with the heat.

I will definitely suggest this product to others.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your positive review and photos. Nice installation job!

I am a counselor, and my counseling room gets full afternoon sun. This results in the room being very warm during the summer in Mississippi. I found EZ Snap via a search engine. I could not be more pleased with the purchase.

The shades were easy to install (I did it all by myself), and they have cut the temperature down in this room greatly!

I do recommend having a carpenter square when trimming the mesh—just to make sure your cuts are square. And because I did it all alone, they aren’t the best-looking shades (see pics)—BUT they still perform as promised! I couldn’t be happier.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks

We got er done! We like how simple to place once all the cuts are done. Too bad not all windows and casings are square.
I was disappointed with photocopy of directions and I am wondering why we got so few of the actual combo snaps compared to the fasteners? We are actually short a few and that takes into consideration how many may have dropped and lost.

Thanks,
K.Nice

I believed this would help reduce the heat based on the reviews but this has eliminated the heat.

We bought a home in Las Vegas, 20 year old house. The windows are in need of replacing. When the sun hit the window I could feel the heat coming through the windows. We are not ready to replace yet.

I ordered these. My husband cut based on the instructions. I cleaned the windows and added all the 3M snaps. I suggest two people place screen on larger windows to help ensure it is straight. I could do the smaller ones by myself.

It's summer now and it's 112 degrees today July 4 2023. I cannot feel the heat through the windows anymore. I thought based on reviews it would help with it but I have to touch the window now to know its warm (but its not super hot like before).

6 sets of windows only took us a couple hours cause we worked together.

Try the least seen window first to test out the strategy. Get extra snaps in case you mess up.

My neighbors wants this now. Its the perfect solution.

EZ Snap® Team - Happy to hear that EZ Snap is keeping you cooler in Las Vegas! Thanks for letting us know.

Picture #1: all three bathroom windows completed. As you can see we were able the install your product around the glass block “seashell” shower wall, and the glass block pyramid window made of a different glass block. Both glass block materials were smooth glass on the house exterior. Picture #2: shows the final installation from the inside. The shower seashell wall was done with a 4 foot bottom section with an over lapping 6 foot top section. The over lap was planned so that an entire bock was covered with the overlap creating the dark strip. Picture #3 shows the first and bottom row of the shower only installed. From the inside you can see the mesh but even with a 90% mesh, it doesn’t make the inside dark. Hope this helps. Happy for you to use the pictures just not any information to identify us.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks

As you can see by the picture provided I own a Residental Trailer. The front of the trailer faces right into the morning sun. The windows are duel pain and can get up to 117 degrees or more when the sun hits them directly After installing the EZ Snap screening the temperature has dropped in the windows by 10 to 15 degrees. Now, I know that doesn't sound like all that much but when it comes to cooling the inside of the trailer down it is a considerable amount. It used to be the front of the trailer was way hotter than the rest, know the temperature throughout the trailer is more evenly distributed and the front living area is way more comfortable. This is Florida and anything you can do to reduce the inside temperature is a good thing.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks

A Must for Summer Camping

Installed easily, just takes time and the ability to cut in a straight line. We followed all instructions and it works as intended. The window glass and the metal around it are definitely not as hot inside as they were before the shades went up. Nice product that stops the sone of the heat BEFORE it gets to the window.

The adhesive has survived 113° summer temperatures and stays on without damaging slide out seals when moving.
Slight reduction in vision from inside but no more than a normal screen would do.
We used a mix of white and black snaps so that we could put some on the RV and some on the window glass so they could still be opened but not as visible when the shade wasn't on. Can't even see them until you are extremely close.
We decided to mark out where each snap was going to go with painters tape as cleaning the area with alcohol before priming removed the pencil marks we had made. Worked great for keeping them aligned where we wanted them.
Overall great product that does what it was advertised to do.

I recently had the pleasure of installing the EZ Snap UV Window Shade in my home, and I must say it has been a game-changer. Dealing with excessive heat during the summer months had become a constant struggle with the west facing side of my home, but this remarkable window shade has truly transformed the atmosphere inside my home. Here's a brief review of my experience with the product:

Installation: First and foremost, I was delighted by how easy the installation process was. I worried about beginning the project and would have started it sooner had there been more professional how-to videos. Once I got over the nerves, however, and began to process it was dead-easy and I was able to set it up with my partner, easily. The quality of the materials impressed me, and it was evident that this shade was built to last. The snaps securely held the shade in place, ensuring a tight fit against the window frame. CONS:  I am not sure I would install this on the front of my home, as it is more visible than I the website shows. This DOES NOT impact my happiness with the product as the benefits far outweigh the cons.

Heat Reduction: One of the primary reasons I opted for the EZ Snap UV Window Shade was to combat the intense heat that permeated my home. I am thrilled to report that this shade delivered beyond my expectations. It effectively reduced the amount of heat entering my living space, resulting in a significantly cooler and more comfortable environment. The difference was noticeable almost immediately after installation. Not only did it cut down the heat, but it also helped regulate the temperature throughout the day, allowing me to enjoy a cooler home without relying heavily on air conditioning.

Visibility Impact: The shade cuts down a little more light in the room than a regular shade. When the sun is directly hitting the shade, you still get the light in your room, just not the heat. This reduction is light is not obviously noticeable and does not impact our enjoyment of the reduced heat.

Conclusion: In conclusion, the EZ Snap UV Window Shade has exceeded my expectations on all fronts. The ease of installation, along with its remarkable heat reduction and UV protection capabilities, make it a standout product. It has provided a much-needed respite from the sweltering heat and created a more comfortable living space for my family and me. I highly recommend the EZ Snap UV Window Shade to anyone looking for an effective solution to combat heat and protect their interior from harmful UV rays.

Ez snap window Sun screen is a great product ez to install I will order more soon
Loren

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks

It looks like these covers have to be removed and stored? Is that for winter? When I purchased them, I didn’t understand that we would have to keep taking them off annually. As we have a huge scaffolding to climb to get them up on windows and assumed they would just remain there year-round, and as you said they would last 10 to 15 years. please advise.
Also the kit came with 60 clips. I ordered an extra 25. Total 75. Yet looks like we need them spaced out 5” apart?... With the triangles we have 600” total of photo I sent to you. Would we would be looking at 120 of the clips?... Did you and I decide 75 was right? 8” apart?
Many thx!

Installed EZ Snap shades on two large sets of west facing windows last summer. We had trouble cooling the living room and kitchen areas due to the late afternoon and evening sun.

Tested with an infrared temp gun before an after install, the shades dropped the temp on the inside of the windows 8 degrees. Didn't solve our cooling problem but definitely helped.

My only complaint (and why 4 stars) is on many of the snaps I was unable to get the backing off the adhesive. Called customer service and they mailed replacements quickly (5 stars for customer service).

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your review. Sorry about the hassles with the adhesive... the 3M employee put the backing paper on backwards on one batch of adhesive.

It is a great product and easy to install. I have 4 windows facing golf course and I am counting on the screen to eliminate the broken glass in the future... So far so good. John

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks

I have covered 2 homes with EZSnap window shades! Absolutely LOVE this product. Not only is it EZ to install - it looks great! The temperature in our house decreases in the summer months and also gives us privacy. Everyone tells us how lovely they look. I would highly recommend EZSnap - do your research and you will see not only price cost vs ugly bamboo is alot less but the ease in ordering, installation and removal is exactly what is says "EZSNAP".
Thank you to Troy and the Team

The product as far as putting snaps on and screen on is a tedious task but doable. However the screening material is junk. You can see thru .. lights and sunlight. I really thought they blocked the sun.. all that work I did and they don’t serve the purpose I spent all this money on..Very Disappointed.. would not buy again

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for letting us know. We do our best to show all the details, photos, and videos of our products on our website and social media. Sorry that our shades were not what you expected.

I decided to invest some money into your product because I live in Sun City AZ year round, and as you can see by the name, it is very sunny here. I was not sure which color of snap I needed so I ordered the sample pack on February 12. The order was processed in a timely manner and turned over to your shipping company. The package made it all the way to Phoenix (which is very close to Sun City) by February 15. Everything seemed in order for delivery the next day. Then the package decided that it had not seen enough of the country and started heading back east. First stop: Texas. So I say to myself, "Self, surely someone in Texas will notice the package and send it back to Phoenix". Nope. On to Missouri it heads. So I say to myself, "Self, surely someone in Missouri will take notice of the package and send back this way". Nope. On to New Stanton, Pennsylvania goes the package. So I say to myself, "Self, surely this time someone will notice the package is heading in the wrong direction and will send it back the other way". Nope. Next stop: Warwick Pennsylvania. Still going east. I figure at this rate, the package will be in Austria sometime next week. I hear Austria is nice this time of year and I fear package may decide to just stay there. Which leaves me with the same problem I started with. Which color of snap will work best for me? I guess I will never know.

Still Sunny In Sun City,

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks

Very easy install. Installed black shades on all windows in the back of my house to protect my artificial turf.

Been through extreme heat, thunderstorms and strong wind and rain and my shades did very well. Still look new.

I will definately recommend. Only issue i have is it would be nice the have a beige color shade for the front of my house.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the 5 stars. We used to have beige shades; however, they were a very slow seller and the custom manufacturing run for beige was not worth it in the end.

We had custom exterior louvred window shutters made for our house in 2015 ... fast forward to 2020 and the intensity of the sun increased enough to be a problem, even with all the shutters deployed. EZSnap was the solution.

We can now return to the river view side of the house (with the translucency intact to enjoy the view and UV shading to lower the temperature restored) thanks to this top-of-class shade fabric.

The relative ease of fitting and attachment to the shutter frames was icing on the cake, as was the ordering and sales support and quick turn around on ordering to shipping.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the review. Great to hear EZ Snap is keeping you cooler... with the river view!

The product went on like a "snap" !

Looks great and makes a substantial difference in the amount of heat absorbed into my home.

It is well secured and I am so happy to have it.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for letting us know Raymond!

The ordering of the EZ Snap product was a breeze with the online product calculator to determine the correct size panel with cut instructions to purchase optimizing material usage. Ordering the extra recommended fasteners was also a wise move.

After measuring twice and cutting once the product was easy to install. Just use the guide and grease pencil to mark the location of the fasteners, if using adhesive fasteners like me, wait one day for the adhesive to bond.

Cut the screen to size per the layout. Then start your first window by holding the screen at the top and move from left to right to push the screen onto the fasteners keeping it taught but not to stretch the fabric.

Recommend a second pair of hands on larger windows. Then push on the fastener caps. You're done.

See attached picture of the finished product installation.

Enjoying the screens on windows, lower the temperature, on our new western facing double pane windows.

Texas heat 100 + The 4 o'clock Western sun on Inside glass window temperature (using IR gun) 98 degrees.

After installing your not as easy as described screens. Temperature was 86 degrees and viewable and cool not warm (to the touch) through the window.

Very meticulous and exact cutting screen and installation.

Terry Mahoney

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your review. Nice to hear that EZ Snap is keeping you cooler in Texas!

I have plans to get more for both my houses and my office.

A bedroom that was burning up from the sun literally stopped rising in temperature and started dropping the day I installed it.

I don't think you can find a product that is as custom.

Just a follow up regarding the EZ snap window coverings. We were looking for ways to keep the heat out of our windows. Last year, we had the first ever heat dome that took the interior of the house to over 50 C (122 F) and with the possibility of this trend being repeated with global warming, something had to be done to ensure the house was comfortable.

The kits were received within a few days of being sent from your warehouse. The installation was very simple, my hubby measured the windows and we installed all the coverings within a day. The process was very well explained, simple to do and the outcome is beyond fantastic.

When the fabric is off, the stainless-steel screws are barely noticeable around the window frames. The fabric was easily cut to install, the whole process was simple and quick. We did lose a few screw sets in the process as we would drop them on installation.

Today is 27 C (87 F) outside. When placing a temperature probe against the office interior windows that have no cover, the temp is 41 C (105 F) the window that has cover is 34.5 C (94 F). That is a substantial difference between shaded and no shade! We also installed central air conditioning this week to ensure the interior is cooler.

I do find the rooms slightly darker, but can still see out and will get used to the difference in lighting in no time. there is definitely more light coming through the windows with the screens on than having to close the blinds and curtains all together during the day.

Thank you for the great service you provided. I highly recommend you to promote and advertise at the home shows that usually happen in the fall around the Vancouver area. My brother from Kelowna is also sending in a quote request after seeing how easy these were to install and how much heat they block.

kind regards,

I purchased my EZ Snap covering for RV windows. However, I used the covering for a window screening in my older mobile home kitchen windows.

I live in Redding, CA, where the summer temps can reach 115 degrees easily. The windows are south facing so it gets very hot.

The coverings have been perfect, not only do they keep my kitchen at least 10-15 degrees cooler, they also offer privacy.

If you are thinking about purchasing, just do it. You will not be sorry.

Way to go EZ Snap for offering such a fantastic product at a reasonable price.

Janet

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the positive review and photos Janet. Nice to hear that EZ Snap is keeping your kitchen cooler!

Ordered everything we needed for 4 skylights and two windows.

Excited to start the project right before leaving for the summer. Then full-stop.

The adhesive studs sent to us were faulty. Trying as hard as we could to get the simple little covering off to reveal the adhesive. We thought we must be doing something wrong.

Finally asked our kids who are now grown to try. They said the studs were messed up.

We call EZ Snap who quickly agreed and understood - turns out 3M gave them a shipment of useless faulty reversed adhesive studs - made incorrectly, and we got them. Good grief.

The best part of this story is that we asked EZ snap to deliver correct, working adhesive studs express shipping as we were leaving for the summer and needed to install asap.

EZ snap express mailed the correct studs, and our son helped install the night before we left. It went flawlessly.

We would have liked to give the adhesive studs more time to set per the instructions but we were out of time. As it is, we live in a very hot and dry state- so after cleaning and priming the area once the adhesive studs were attached - husband said those things weren’t going anywhere!

Looking forward to a cooler home, maybe a cheaper electric bill. We shall see!

Bonnie Jones

EZ Snap® Team - Sorry about the issue with the adhesive... glad to hear we were able to get the replacement parts delivered in time!

Really pleased with the product. Used the extra to cover the windows on my garage. Dropped the temp in the afternoon greatly.

Thank you

Was satisfied with purchase of EzSnap.

Completed install last weekend which was pretty simple. Packaging of snaps could be improved upon by putting in individual ziplock type bags for resealing, etc.

Overall very pleased with quality and ease of use. Looks attractive, like it belongs/came that way.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the positive review and packaging feedback Colette.

We live in a mountain home that has two large awkward windows.

We had too much sun coming in and also too many bird strikes to count. It was heartbreaking for us to see so many beautiful birds fly right into these windows.

I researched on line and found ez snap screens and we are thrilled with the results! The house is cooler, we have no more sun in our eyes while sitting on the couch and the birds fly over the house not into the windows.

The hardest part was for my 71 year old husband to get up the ladder, the rest really was ez!

Thank you ez snap for a great and reasonable solution. Our birds thank you too!

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the update Gale! We are happy to hear that EZ Snap is keeping you cooler and saving birds at the same time.

We are very happy with the EZ Snaps. We used them on our Rockwood trailer front window to attach clear Marine Vinyl to protect from road rocks.

Jean L.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for letting us know.

We have a nice three season room we like to use year round if possible. Had roll up blinds installed on main windows, so we could open them.

There were 2 small, irregular shaped windows up top though that needed to be covered to block the hot summer sun.

Contacted the company that installed the blinds, and they quoted me $1200.00 each, for the 2 windows.

Researched and found EZ Snap, and was able to cover the windows in a very nice manner to block the sun. All for MUCH less than the blinds I was quoted for.

Very easy to install, look great, and have received several nice comments from family on how they look.

They do a great job of filtering the light and heat.

Very pleased.

Hey look I am here to review the EZ snap coverings that I installed on my RV coach over this summer. Being factual and to the point with no bias.

#1 yes it did indeed lower the temps on my windows 10 to 15 degrees.
#2 Yes easy to install (make sure you use 2 around the corners)
#3 follow the prep and use the alcohol and pen to make a clean installation.
#4 save the boxes they came in to roll up and store (easy to store without wrinkles and put away).

I am quite impressed with them for the cost. I researched many alternatives and came to the conclusion that this was the best in class and price. I have even had a 40LB solar panel blow off my rig but the screens still held.

So if you’re a DIY this is the way to go. There are some vision concerns that come with them but nothing that really amounts to vision obstruction.

Bottom line I would purchase and recommend again and again.

Terry W.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your positive feedback and recommendation Terry.

It's simple. Just simple. Simple to buy, simple to install, simple to take on and off. Simple to Store. The one word for EZ snap is simple.

Also it's affordable.

Hi, sorry for late review, had to go to eastern Canada to look after a family member.

We are very happy with our EZ Snap.

It kept our house much cooler, and that’s a plus with large south facing windows.

I’ve been gone since July 21st but my husband says screens work as indicated. I’m happy.

We are interested in screens for our Arizona property, god willing, we’ll get there this fall.

Thanks so much to our contact Troy Assaly in BC Canada. He was very helpful & personable.

Cheers & Thanks for the product.

They are easy to install and seem to make it easier on air conditioning ... so happy so far.

Was the best thing we bought this summer. Works good.

This product is everything the website said and much more. One of the best things I have done in a long while.

I absolutely love it!

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for letting us know. We're glad you are happy with your EZ Snap Shades!

For all who might feel intimidated by a home project, EZ Snap will build your confidence and you will walk away from a project your neighbors will like.

It not only looks like a professional installation, it noticeably blocks out so much of my west facing heat. Prior to EZ Snap, my living room and dining room would reach 93° from the western exposure. Since I’ve installed EZ Snap, my highest temperature has been 78°. I don’t have AC and a fan can keep it cool.

Installation is very easy. Measure twice, cut once. Apply the 3M studs and attach the fabric. It’s really that simple.

As for privacy, what an added bonus. I can see out of the window easily, but people walking up to my front door cannot see in.

I haven’t had to remove the mesh yet since we are still in the summer’s heat, but the comfort I have gained will far outweigh having to remove it for winter.

It really is a great product, high quality mesh and easy installation. I would recommend EZ Snap every time without hesitation.

Sincerely,

Linda

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your review Linda. We are happy to know that EZ Snap is keeping you cooler... and looking good too!

The adhesives which this company claims work and last if you install them correctly DO NOT last. I followed all directions and they only lasted a few weeks and started falling down. Instead of just sending me more this company sent long ridiculous emails about how the product works to make it such a complex and terrible process communicating with them. I spent around $200 on this product and because they are putting themselves first to save $35, they have lost this customer and all the referrals I would have given them. This company should be ashamed of themselves.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your feedback. Sorry to hear that the 3M adhesive was not appropriate for your project. Our team works closely with customers to correct installation issues and problems. Part of our support process is to get photos and email descriptions of the situation, to help us determine the best way to fix it. With photos, email exchange, and cooperation, we always find a solution and get customers on track to use their EZ Snap products for years to come.

Very easy to use... took no time to install window shades.

Thank you for a very well made product.

Diana

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the compliments Diana.

I found EZSnap relatively easy to install.

With good planning, an adequate place to layout your materials, measure and cut... it went smoothly.

Tom

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for reporting back Tom.

We purchased e EZ Snap window coverings for our children’s bedrooms and our large family room window.

They were easy to install, and went up very quickly with two people.

We noticed a 2-3 degree decrease in the house temperature. Definitely has been welcomed with the warm summer we are having!

We have been so happy with the product that we are ordering more for our cabin now.

Alex & Christy

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for sharing your experience Alex & Christy. Awesome to hear that EZ Snap Shades are keeping your family cooler.

We have had our shades screens for over 6 years.

The EZ Snaps make it so easy to re-install the shades each year.

The EZ Snaps are readily available to re-order and ship quickly if you need to replace any of them.

The fact that we can remove them at the end of the season, easily store them and re-use the shade screens each year saves money.

They also protect our furniture and carpeting from the sun rays.

Sincerely,
Stan and Pam

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for continued business and your review Stan & Pam!

The summer heat gain in my office was due entirely to the lower half of this east-facing window - one of only two east-facing windows unprotected from the summer sun.

It took some effort to find you but it was worth it; the EZ Snap screen turns out to be the perfect solution. It eliminated entirely the morning heat inside the house.

And, mounted directly on the glass, it is virtually undetectable outside unlike every other solution I considered.

Finally, despite initial trepidation, it was dead easy to trim and install even with last minute adjustments for the irregular shape due to the concrete blocks overlapping the window frame...

K. Hamma

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for telling us about experience with EZ Snap.

We love living on an island in the Mississippi River but early morning sun and water reflection was heating up the house 10 degrees through our 13 feet of windows.

Your window shades have cut that heat gain to zero while keeping our amazing view.

It worked so well last year we added them to our west facing bedroom windows this year.

Great product. Amazingly easy to install and remove.

Gary D.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your review and photos Gary. Glad to hear that EZ Snap Shades are keeping you cooler on the Mississippi River!

I ordered the EZ snap window shades for my exterior windows in the front of my home.

I ordered them because I had installed new turf six months in front prior and realize that the Low E windows were actually reflecting the sun and melting my turf.

Also the front of my home faces the sun midday and I wanted the added benefits of sun blockage and reduction of cooling costs during the summer months here in sunny California.

With the help of my husband, we installed the shades in a couple of hours.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your review and photos. It's nice to know that EZ Snap saved your turf from melting!

The Problem: Melted Vinyl Siding

We ended up discovering EZ Snap when researching what was causing the vinyl siding on our house, as well as our neighbour’s house, to melt. We discovered that the most likely culprit was the sun reflecting off the energy efficient windows that our new house was built with.

In the pictures with this review, you can see how the sunbeam was hitting the neighbour’s house and creating long streaks of melted siding.



After discovering what was causing the problem we set out to find a solution. At first I called several window coating businesses in our city to explain the problem and see if there were any local solutions available, which there were not. So, turning to Google, we found that there were three solutions:

1. Build and screw an actual screen over the window
2. apply a dispersing coating to the window
3. EZ snap screens

We decided very quickly that we did not want to screw anything to the house. With the extreme freeze and thaw we have here in our region of Canada, that seemed like a recipe for disaster to us. We debated for a time over the glass film, or an EZ snap screen, and ultimately went with EZ snap because it seemed like a more forgiving application process. I mean, applying a screen protector to an Ipad or cell phone without bubbles was annoying enough, I didn’t want to have to try to attempt it on a window-size scale, even though our problem window was very small.

The Solution: EZ Snap

Unfortunately our project was so small that we didn’t qualify for free shipping. However, the sizing instructions and ordering platform were very easy to use, and after reading a few of the reviews we decided to also order a couple extra pins for our tiny project. Given that the area we were covering was so small, we probably went a little overboard with the number of pins we used, but we decided it was better to have more pins per surface area than fewer. We placed our order and were expecting it to be delivered in a week to two weeks, given that it was coming from the US. Products from the US coming to Canada are notoriously slow. We were extremely surprised and happy when it arrived within 3 days of being shipped.

The Application: The instructions for application of the screen were clear and easy to follow.

We measured twice and cut once :-). While the screen was on the floor we also laid out the pins around it to determine where we would put them before I was out on the roof again. We also determined that we wanted to attach the pins to the 3M studs BEFORE I went out on the roof again. This went against the instructions, but our reasoning was that I could only just barely reach the top left corner of the window, and the snaps to attach the pins to the studs were so tight it would have been impossible, and very unsafe, for me to do stretching on my toes on a steeply sloped roof. With a plan of attack in mind and armed with a ruler, I went back out and placed dots with a Sharpie at the predetermined spacing. I kept the studs with their pins applied in a bag that I clipped to my jeans so I had easy access to them, and easily applied the studs to their pre-marked locations. We waited 24 hours before applying the screen to the pins, as per the instructions. The screen was a little tough to jam over the pins, but the only truly difficult area was the top left, which was entirely due to my reach, not the product. The caps snapped onto the pins easily after the screen was applied.

Click on the video, below, to see for yourself:



The Conclusion: Overall we feel quite pleased with our choice to go with EZ Snap to protect our house and the neighbour’s house from further solar damage.

Shipping was fast, installation was easy, and the black screen is practically unnoticeable due to how dark our windows usually look against the dark siding of our house. Unless you knew it was there you wouldn’t notice the screen so I feel that it doesn’t diminish the aesthetics of our home at all.

10/10 would recommend EZ Snap.

Shannon S.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your review, video, and photos Shannon. We're happy to help stop your siding from melting and we're glad you found us!

Very happy with my purchase of a 10 foot roll.

Window is 8x5 feet.

I ordered extra fasteners and the high wind ones with screws for a total of 66 for 5 inch spacing.

Installation was very straightforward and easy. Definitely need 2 people if installing on a large window.

Can't see in but can see out. Pictures on the website are very accurate.

Window faces west so it gets hot evening sun. After putting up the mesh hardly any heat getting inside the house. Have not had any high winds yet so cannot attest to that feature.

Would recommend it to others.

Chris

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the positive review and photos. Nice installation!

Hi Troy,

... When I got up this morning, I really noticed a difference in the light in the living room. That’s going to be an unexpected benefit for me as I’ve just been diagnosed with macular degeneration in one eye and the sun is one of the main causes, after heredity. So less sunlight in the house is a great benefit to me.

Thank you again.

Linda

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the update Linda.

Living in SW Florida in the summer is tough. The sun is intense and temperatures are in the 90’s and can reach 100.

We did 3 windows facing the hot setting sun. Here are photos of 2 of the windows. The round one is in the TV room and the one on the right is the kitchen window.

The round one is my fish stain-glass. When the sun hits it, it is so hot on the inside that it hurts to touch and the heat being given off into the room is unbelievable. It makes watching TV uncomfortable and the room heats up .

Now the glass is just barely warm and the room does not heat up.

The kitchen window was above the sink and the heat made it uncomfortable to do dishes. Now I have no excuse when my wife asks me to clean up after dinner.

This stuff works.

James Steed

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for sending photos and a great review James. We are very happy to hear that EZ Snap Shades are keeping you cooler in SW Florida!

We live in California and when the sun beats on the windows, it gets very 🔥.

We have triangular/quadrilateral windows and there was no modern option to block the heat while maintaining the beautiful view of the back yard...until EZ snap.

The website provides all the information and any handy person can do this with a partner (Smaller windows can be done by one). One of our windows is 143 inches long and it came out great!

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for reporting back. Nice to hear that EZ Snap shades are keeping you cooler in California!

We have mega windows in our TV room that overlooks the backyard.

In the summer, the windows turn to magnifying glasses and amplify the heat and it becomes intolerable without air conditioning.

In the winter, the sun comes down in the afternoon and is blinding.

Finding anything modern to block the heat and the glare and still provide a view seemed impossible until, you got it, EZ snap.

I followed the instructions, rented a tall ladder and we got it done in a snap. One unanticipated benefit is that the window looks really clean on the inside because the glare has been reduced significantly.



I love the windows, I love the view and I love EZ Snap!

Thanks a bunch!

Karine

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your positive review and photo Karine. Glad to hear that EZ Snap Shades are helping with heat and glare while keeping your great view!

The EZ Snap system was extremely easy to install. The directions provided were clear and the kit had everything that was needed for installation.

This kit is being used to stop window reflection that is melting the neighbors siding and has the great benefits of blocking UV/heat.

Paul Fryrear

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for positive review Paul.

I recently purchased, and finally installed my EZ Snap window covering.

It was easy to install and looks better than I imagined.

Hopefully, it will do the job of reducing window glare and save my outdoor plants!

John Sprengelmeyer

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for reporting back John. Your plants will love you for installing EZ Snap shades to block the reflection from the sun!

Here in eastern Nevada, the wind is constant and gusts from 50 to 70mph regularly. The sun can be brutal, and we live on a golf course, perfectly distanced 120 yards from a tee box. Golf balls have taken 6 windows in the last two years. At $180 per window, your product showed promise.

I have enclosed pictures of the installation and finished look.

Installation of your product was perfect, the pins and screen have been super durable and look great. The wind hardly affects the screens, they block the heat wonderfully, and golf balls are stopped dead with no damage to the screens or windows.

Thank you and wish you more well deserved success with your product.

Doug Kendrick

EZ Snap® Team - Great installation Doug! Thanks for the photos and endorsement... We get a lot of requests for golf ball protection shades and your photos will be very useful for other customers with stucco homes on golf courses.

The product was easy to install on standard 3x5 foot windows. I found EZ Snap after looking for something to protect a newly installed artificial turf from reflections from the windows.

The most time consuming part was the prep and cleaning for the adhesive. The actual install was very fast.

It's only been a few weeks, but I would recommend these to anyone.

--David

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the recommendation David...

This is my second purchase of EZ Snap shades. The product provides not only heat reduction but privacy throughout the day.

Very simple to install and so far all the shades are holding up great.

My neighbors were very curious about the product as they are looking into purchasing some shades for their new home.

Highly recommend this quality product for anyone looking to save money on AC bills. I feel that we are better prepared for another Arizona summer as temps tend to rise in the upper 100s.

Josh Bucur

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your repeat business and positive review Josh... we appreciate it!

I have waited 3 years to write this review. I live in Tucson, Arizona where temps reach 110. I have HUGE ( 8 feet by 13 feet) south facing windows and and a 9 by 12 foot skylight. We moved to Tucson 3 years ago, hence my purchase of ezsnap.

So here are the pros... they do block the heat and allow in the light. The material is stiff and substantial. It is easy to remove the screen when you want to.

Here are the cons... the little adhesive disc do not work in temp about 95 degree. I had to restore to super glue and some still have come off. I did not have the option to drill holes into my house.

If you buy this, buy A LOT OF THE DISC replacement SETS. Because the little caps you snap on/ off become brittle and break in the desert heat. The second year, I learned it cost me as much to ship replacements to me as to pay for the replacements.

The screen you get is great but after 3 years, it began to crack and has become brittle as well...especially the one on the skylight. So there is no 10 years of use out of this. However the screens I put on windows under my porch and my doors (west side of house) are doing great. They do not get that much direct sun. I still needed to use the super glue but the screens are still in tack.

So there you have it. I am looking into another product which will cost half what I paid and ..Yes! I will have to replace every three years but at least they will be easier to attach and not cost me $500.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your feedback Marcie. Your experience with EZ Snap is not typical. The 3M Adhesive and the Shades are designed for extreme heat and UV exposure. We have never heard of the Shades cracking and we've been selling Shades for over 15 years. The mounting surface qualities and installation technique are very important for a good Fastener bond to occur. Here's a video showing the extreme bonding power on 3M Adhesive Fasteners that are installed with correct technique and on a good mounting surface: https://ezsnapdirect.com/3m-adhesive-strength-test/

Application was to cover some SW facing windows in an upstairs air conditioned storage room / art room.

Just got the shades installed this week. Online instructions were useful and everything went to plan.

No blazing hot days yet, but I'm expecting good results.

Suggestion #1: Related to the planning tool. Maybe I missed it but I don't think so... The planing tool should calculate the required number of snaps, perhaps based on both minimum (10" spacing) as well as maximum (5" spacing) numbers required. This could assist in ensuring sufficient quantity of snaps are ordered. I cut mine too close. I would have installed more if I had them (9" spacing + 2 at corners).

Suggestion #2: I ordered 2 adhesive pens. I did one window, then moved the ladder over to do the other 2. By the time I got to the other 2, the liquid in the pen had evaporated, and I did not dilly-dally. You might want to give folks some guidance on how long the liquid will be available once opened. If you did this, I didn't see it anywhere.

Packaging comment: Both ends of the box had ripped tape. I was lucky the snaps had not fallen out. Perhaps you should tape it to the inside of the box to ensure it doesn't slide out???

I think I'll be very happy with it. More windows possible depending on how we like it this summer.

Kind Regards,
Mike

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your feedback and photo Mike. For other customers reading this review... <br><br>The Kit Size Calculator recommends the number of fasteners with appropriate spacing for different sized windows.

EZ-Snap Window shades are a lifesaver! The Arizona heat is impossible to escape but these new window shades have cooled down our home dramatically. They are simple to install and great quality! I was impressed how sticky the adhesive caps were and how much the UV mesh helped with the glare. Applying these shades is a much cheaper alternative than replacing all existing mesh on metal screens. This is an investment that is affordable to just about anyone. After the savings on the AC bill, plan to break even quicker than you anticipate!

EZ Snap® Team - Happy to hear EZ Snap is keeping you cool in Arizona. Thanks for the review.

The attached two pictures show how we corrected our views with “whiteout” (a 5-foot White Mesh Window Shade Kit).

We are using for privacy (not sun shade). As such, shades are mounted on the inside of glass on a window and the upper sections of two doors.

We gain privacy while also giving a little haze to the view of neighboring patios and buildings. The bottom sections of the doors were left open to enjoy a clear view of our patio plants (and where privacy is not needed).

Thank you EZ Snap!

Sincerely,  Jack and Diane McComb

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for sending photos of your innovative door privacy shade. It looks great!

I had problems with heat pouring in my large front window, even with the drapes closed. Since I live in a 600 sq ft house, the living room was a furnace that heated the rest of the house as well. The heat overcame my AC with no problem. With the AC set at 76, it wasn’t uncommon for the house to get to 83 in the late afternoon.

I ordered the EZ Snap product to cover my front window and a west facing bedroom window. I installed them myself over several days. No problem for a 67 yo woman.

The results have been superb. My visibility is fine. The amount of heat has been reduced considerably. I can run my AC at 78 and the house is comfortable.

I have had sunscreens in previous houses, but that entailed custom made screens permanently installed and a custom made bill. These screens accomplish the same effect with a reduced cost.

I am happy with them so far. They have been up about a month.

Laurie Murphy

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Laurie. Happy to hear that EZ Snap Shades are keeping your home cooler!

Hi. Steven and Betty here. The ezsnap sunroom turned out beautifully!

EZ Snap® Team - Nice work Steven and Betty! Looks great... Thanks for the photos and review.

We love your product and it’s been a lifesaver!!

After siding our house this spring/summer we discovered our siding was melting. I decided to see if there were any solutions on the internet to help us with our problem. That’s when I found EZ snap.

We had a part of our house where the dining room extended 5 ft and the windows adjacent were reflecting the sun causing the siding to burn. We love our southwest view but with that comes so much sun. Over the years we’ve always talked about what we could do.

We decided to shade all windows, and with the surplus material we were able to do garage as well to make it all look uniform.

I would compare having shades on our windows to the same difference you see when you put sunglasses on outside. Instead of the sun causing us to squint, we now love sitting in the living room and still enjoy the great views.

I’m so thankful we found your product!

Installation was easy just as explained in the video. One additional comment is how we had to sew an extra piece onto our material to fit our 6ft x 6ft quarter round windows. We’re so happy with our solution, using a thread from a boat marina that is used for making tarps. A thread that can withstand the weather.

I apologize for the photos not including our finished house with decking and rails as the pandemic and shortage of getting boards has halted our ability to finish until supply is available.

But again thank you so much for a quality product and answer to our prayers.

The Poll Family

ps. We sewed a small scrap onto the shades for my large 6ft x 6ft quarter round windows. I did send a photo of the close up to show how it was done. We made sure the material when it came time to connect to the black pin that it didn’t compromise the sewn piece holding the two pieces together. We went to a boat marina who directed us to a gentleman who sews all their tarps for boats. There’s a total of four different sewn lines holding it together. The thread he assured me should last about 10 years. It will hold out through the weather over the years. Just thought I’d pass that along. We were very happy how it turned out.:-)
Thanks again. Cynda

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for all the photos and positive words. Congrats on a totally professional looking installation... nice work!

Hello friends at E Z Snap...

We purchased your product because we lived this year under heat wave conditions and our AC could not help in our two east facing rooms.

We appreciated the fast shipping.

Unfortunately we have not yet been able to install them. My husband and I are both disabled and unable to climb a ladder and have not been able to get assistance with this. With fall, then winter now upon us, we are thinking this may now have to wait until spring. But we thank you and are looking forward to a much cooler summer next year.

Sincerely,

Peg Hardiman

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the update Peg. We hope you can get those shades installed before the next heatwave!

Thanks for such a great product 🙂

Very happy with the EZ Snap shade screens!

We set up a new home office in the spring only to find out after a few days that the heat from the sun made it almost unbearable by midday. A friend recommended EZ Snap, we didn’t think it would make that much of a difference, but it does! The very next day there was a huge difference in temperature (about 10 degrees F).

We made it through the summer thanks to these shades.

The online order was easy and delivery was super-fast. It is very important to read all the instructions but the installation went exactly as described.

Highly recommend this product.

Anne

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for photos and positive review.

Love love love these solar screens.

I am selling my house and during the summer did not want to block out the windows with this insulating foam board I usually put up in the summer months to block out the heat. Searched online and found you.

I couldn’t be happier with the Results.

We had 120 degree temps last week which is unheard of in our area and they help tremendously.

They were easy to install with the directions. And will probably take them with me to my next house and try and use them there if I need them.

Thanks for creating such a great product.

KT

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your compliments and photos. Hope your house sold quickly!

Hello there,

I have received my order and would like to thank you for the excellent service. Hope you had a good weekend.

Darryl Lovie

EZ Snap® Team - Thank you for your review and photos.

Windows on the second floor were melting the neighbor's siding. I found ez snap on the internet. Compared to other companies and other options, I felt this was the best one to go with. Most products are only good for five years, but this one could last ten years or more. I installed it by myself and really did not have any issues. Have had one storm with winds up to sixty miles an hour and it held up well. Going to get hurricane shutters in November which will roll down right over ez snap. This will protect it in high winds

Donald

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the review and photo Donald.

I used my easy snap screen to cover the inside of a door window that is on the west side of my house.

We live in central texas and the temperature has been 105 on alot of days and the heat coming in through that window was tremendous.

Once I put the screen up the difference has been outstanding. It has helped considerably with our ac electric bill.

It was very simple to put up and it removes easily for the winter months.

Thanks EZ Snap

D. Klade

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the feedback. Happy to hear EZ Snap is keeping you cooler in Central Texas!

EZ Snap was definitely the best investment we made for our window coverings.

We had 5 windows that were 14 foot high on the front and back of our house. They were triangle in shape and only accessible by ladder. Because of the truly amazing and easy installation we were able to do this while on the ladder.

The material layout that EZ Snap did for us was right on the money and we had all the material we needed for this project.

This screen cut out the glare and heat from the sun in our living room area but we still have the beautiful view of the sky and trees.

Great product and very easy to install!!

I have attached before and after photos and also a video of installation. Video under separate email.

J. Balusek

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the positive review Janis. Nice to hear.

We bought our ez snap for our new house, the sun sets on the back of the home and heats up the bedrooms and kitchen area... the ez shade has helped tremendously to block some of the heat.

Love your product!! Thank you.

Respectfully,

Tina Pettit

EZ Snap® Team - Nice to hear from you Tina.

The EZ Snap screens were “EASY" and a "SNAP” to install!

Recommend for all window applications.

Mike Lodes

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Mike!

Great customer service, great product, fast delivery... don’t get any better than that!

Darrel

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Darrel.

EZ SNAP made me a great neighbor. I had noticed that my neighbor's vinyl siding had curled or warped for some time.

Recently we met in yard and was discussing a new deck they installed. My neighbor indicated the contractor informed them sun reflecting from my homes window caused the vinyl to melt. I told them that I would research and went on internet to find something to cover window.

I found that EZ SNAP window cover was the best solution, most economical and easiest to install.

My neighbors were really happy that I was able to stop further damage by using EZ SNAP.

Jack Young

EZ Snap® Team - Nice work Jack. Thanks for letting us know.

Absolutely love the product! It is 110 today in Phoenix… Our bedroom window faces south and the EZ Snap window shades completely change the temperature in our house.

The install went well. By the time I finished the third window I felt like an expert installer.

I am not aware of any product as simple and effective as EZ Snap.

The service team was fantastic as well.

You should buy EZ SNAP.

Bruce K.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the endorsement. Great to hear that EZ Snap is keeping you cooler in Phoenix!

Purchased your product and put it to the test last week on the NC shores. 95 degree weather in the middle of a sand pile with the occasional rain and coastal storm.

Your product performed beautifully!

Easy to cut and assemble and even easier to remove.

Fabric is dark enough to offer a great temperature adjustment without totally blacking out your view.

The cost is very affordable and storage in small spaces is an enormous plus.

I try to be fair by giving all products we purchase fair ratings, either good or bad. I was completely satisfied with our experience and EZ Snap.

Best of luck in sales to you guys. Your product is a winner!

Amy

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your compliments Amy. Great to hear!

My EZ Snap experience was exactly what I hoped it would have been.

I was able to easily read the instructions and effortlessly proceed to cover three windows that were in direct sunlight into our home.

The process I felt was well thought out and only took about two hours of actual time.

The screens are perfect for blocking the sun rays but still allow for viewing from the inside of the house.

It is always great to purchase a product that does exactly what is advertised.

Thanks EZ Snap

We love our EZ Snap covering.

We put it on our picture window.

Looks great and does an awesome job of controlling the sun.

Mary Fehlker

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Mary!

We absolutely love our EZ Snap shades.

We had big pull down patio shades that worked great, as long as the wind was not blowing. Living in West Texas, wind is about the only thing you can count on. So much of the day, the shades we were using had to be rolled up. This allowed the sun to essentially bake us alive.

My wife stumbled upon the EZ Snap website while looking for a solution. I immediately measured the windows and placed the order.

The cut pattern that they put together was perfect and installation is a breeze. The first window took a little bit to get in a rhythm, but the other 4 windows were a Snap.

It has made a very noticeable difference in the heat in our den and master bedroom. Considering getting some for our travel trailer now.

Stephen and Janie V.
Amarillo, TX

EZ Snap® Team - Great to hear that you're loving the EZ Snap shades!

Searched the internet for sun screen for skylights. I looked at quite a few different companies before I settled in on EZ Snap. Purchased enough screen for one window and one skylight.

First the room, it is the only room in the house that faces the sun and gets terribly hot.

After a little over a week my wife and I are amazed at how cool our TV room is now. We are in Texas and the sun is intense.

The sun screen is working better than we could ever had expected. The skylight is the same.

Excellent product and highly recommended that anyone needing a cooler home to buy EZ Snap, extra heavy duty screen which is so easy to cut and work with.

Jeff Arnold

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your review Jeff.

I had a real issue with the windows on my home reflecting the summer sun onto my lawn and scorching my grass and even melting a trampoline.

EZ Snap stopped the sun from reflecting onto my lawn and killing it.

I’m looking forward to a nicer lawn and cooler home this summer!

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the positive review Chris. Nice to hear EZ Snap is keeping you cooler in Buford!

Our sunroom was really unbearable, with the sun pounding in all day thru the wall of windows and the 3 skylights! But, we like to watch tv back there. And the sun was just too bright, causing heat and a glare that just didn't work.

We put up outside curtains, which looked sloppy, blew in the wind, and made us feel closed in.

So, we saw the EZ Snap ad, watched the videos and ordered. It was a flawless process, quick and easy. It arrived within a few days. The instructions were great and my wife and I installed it in a day.

We agree, it makes an awesome difference! The temperature is down 10 degrees, we can see out, but the glare inside is greatly reduced and we can watch tv.

No more claustrophobic feeling! It looks great, nice and neat outside on the patio. No more worn, blowing shades!

We are really happy with our purchase. This is a good, solid product. Great service.

Thanks,
James

EZ Snap® Team - Great to hear that EZ Snap cut down on the heat and glare in your sunroom. Thanks for letting us know.

We just installed our EZ snap window screens. The whole project took about 2-3 hours in total for 2 windows.

The room inside does appear to be a bit cooler although we haven't hit the hot part of the summer.

You must be slow and careful in measuring and cutting the screens. This is probably the most important part although each step of installation and preparation is also important.

Our 2 goals in buying this project were to prevent our artificial grass from melting as a result of the sun reflecting off of the windows as well as keeping that room (with a south face) cooler. We'll have a better idea of how well it works in 2-3 months.

It looks good and the screen appears to be of high quality.

R. Smolen

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the positive review Mr. Smolen.

All I have to say is that I am extremely pleased with my EZ Snap purchase!

Before I finished installing the shades, we could feel a pleasant drop in temperature in the rooms where the shades had been put up.

We live in a very windy area and so far, have had no issues with adhesion failure of the snaps.

Thank you for making a great product!

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the great feedback Sandra!

Had the siding melt on my barn due to my windows reflecting the sun onto it. We tried everything to fix it.

After installing your EZ Snap screens it completely took the reflection away and no more melted siding.

Thanks,
Taylor

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the update Taylor. Nice to hear that EZ Snap has stopped the melted siding problem on your barn.

Had just re-sided my house in October 2019. Then in the spring of 2020 we noted a line is warping siding in a diagonal line from a window which is 90 degrees to the left of the siding.

Bought enough to screen 3 of the four windows. Just ordered another kit to cover the fourth window.

Since we covered the initial window we have not seen any increase or worsening of the melted siding.

Paul

EZ Snap® Team - Happy to help you stop the melted vinyl siding Paul.

Is your house vinyl siding melting? I turned to EZ Snap.

The solution was simple: if you have double windows they can reflect the sun. It can become a magnifying glass and ruin the siding.

The experts at EZ Snap and my siding contractor made the difference. Covered the windows with EZSnap. Problem solved.

D. Dituri

EZ Snap® Team - Nice to hear that EZ Snap solved your melted siding problem. Thanks for letting us know Mr. Dituri.

Before EZ Snap Shades:


After EZ Snap Shades:


Installation was much easier than I had expected.

We have already experienced lower temperatures in the house.

We are going to install artificial grass soon and only planned on preventing the grass from getting burned from our dual pane windows reflecting the sun on the grass, but the reduction in temperature is a bigger plus, less AC working to cool inside.

Thank you,
Tom S.

EZ Snap® Team - Nice installation Tom. You can count on EZ Snap to stop the turf melting and keep you cooler for many years to come.

Kit came in good condition.

Had ordered extra snaps as we can be subjected to hurricane strength winds in Florida.

Overall installation was simple and the included tool made cutting a breeze.

Best of all is the performance of the product in reducing heat buildup in our home which receives direct afternoon sun.

Wouldn't hesitate to buy again if needed.

Rich D.

EZ Snap® Team - Glad to hear EZ Snap is keeping you cool in Florida. Thanks for letting us know.

I'm so proud of myself for being able to install the EZ Snap shades all by myself and the result was fantastic due to your easy step by step instructions and your great customer service on guiding me about how much yardage to order.

They turned out great as you can see from the photo and the UV Rays from the windows are no longer burning the new artificial grass. I'm thinking of doing my other windows even though they are not facing the Grass.

Thank you again for your great product and wonderful customer service.

Irene

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Irene. Nice looking install!

Life-Changing!

After barely surviving summer after summer of hot weather, we knew something had to give. If it were 30°C outside, it would easily be 35+ in our west-facing living room and kids' rooms on any given night. We tried blinds, drapes, blackout curtains, heat-reflective film, all at the same time, and the living room was still unbearable. Completely unusable in the summer months.

We also would have 4 (yes, four) air conditioners running constantly in the house: one in each bedroom and one in the kitchen, which we had to cordon off to keep the cool air in. Even then, the living room was too hot to sit in. I've dreaded summers for 5 years!

In comes EZ Snap: a big claim, but worth a shot. After installing the window screens to our front windows, we have been able to weather 30°C days with NO A.C. running in the house, and sit comfortably in the living room with only a fan running.

This has changed our lives. Bravo, EZ Snap, for such an effective product.

Installation was straightforward and easy. My only suggestion would be to give yourself a few more inches than you think when cutting, just in case.

Overall I am very satisfied with the product. We have had neighbour's comment on the look of it, thinking we had our windows tinted.

We were considering installing central air conditioning, but now we don't need to!

Thanks EZ Snap!

A.K.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the photo and positive review.

We are very happy with our purchase of EZ Snap window covering.

The installation was easy and straightforward.

We covered our large picture window in the front of our house. The sun was a constant issue streaming through the window.

Now with EZ Snap installed the light is filtered and we can still enjoy the view.

Thank you

EZ Snap® Team - Great to hear your feedback, thank you.

I have a home office with three bay windows that heat quickly with the strong morning sun here in Colorado. Sun film on the windows was insufficient even with the blinds closed; I needed more heat reduction. EZ Snap Shades to the rescue!

I covered two of the three windows, and the difference in heat gain between the covered and uncovered windows is dramatic. (I left one window uncovered because I need the airflow from my swamp cooler to work properly, and shade cloth cuts down on airflow.)

Installation was straightforward and not beyond this 65-year-old woman.

Some feedback, then some installation tips:

The primer pen ran dry well before the 50-snaps it was supposed to cover.

The fabric was very easy to cut. I left it a bit long and trimmed after installation.

My ratcheting screwdriver, minus the bit, was perfect for popping the pins onto the bases with no broken pins and fingers were unharmed.

A wooden dowel with small hole drilled in center was very helpful for pushing the cloth down onto the pins (thanks to other reviewer who suggested it).

They say "measure twice and cut once" for the fabric; I'd say it also applies to the spacing of the snaps. I nearly screwed it up--had to redo my marks to come out with the right number in the end. I also recommend getting 10% more than you think you need, just in case.

The shades do darken the room. A bit more than I'd like, but it's a worthwhile trade off in my opinion.

All in all, I'm happy with the results at this point. I plan to take it off in the winter when I can benefit from the heat gain, and reinstall in summer.

Meanwhile, I can continue to work in my office through the summer this year!

The call to the sales dept was very helpful. The product was as described.

Had no trouble installing (used a nut driver to push snaps on to make it easier on fingers) on to my storm door.

Does cut down considerably on amount of heat in entrance way which receives direct sun all afternoon in Florida.

David Carroll

EZ Snap® Team - Great feedback. Thank you David.

I have an office in a small commercial building that faces west and that late afternoon Oklahoma sun is incredibly intense.

EZ Snap shade screens make an amazing difference!!!!

They keep the temperature down, reducing energy costs, while still allowing filtered light.

Having a shade screen also protects the carpet and furniture from fading.

Ordering is easy and delivery is fast.

Gail – Tulsa OK

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Gail. Glad to hear that EZ Snap is keeping you cool in Tulsa OK!

Pretty much a waste of money, south exposure window, and very insignificant heat reduction.

Ed

EZ Snap® Team - If you have the EZ Snap Shades mounted on the outside of your window (between the window and the sun) then there will be up to 90% less heat and light hitting the exterior of the window that has the Shades installed.Since there are many sources of heat in any home, it may be difficult to determine exactly how much difference covering only one window with EZ Snap Shades will make.If you are unable to feel any temperature difference inside your home after installing the Shade Material, this would be very unusual.We have thousands of satisfied customers all over North America and get positive feedback on a continual basis.

I purchased a roll of the easy snap material and snaps for the west facing windows of my lower floor. I had already built and installed shutters to deal with the sun for the upper floor.

Installation was very easy and I was able to install the mounting hardware, cut the material and install the blinds in about 3 hours in total.

It truly made a huge difference to the inside temp of the house.

I am going to order more next spring and do the upstairs windows even though I spent money on shutters.

Thanks for a great product.

Sean Z

EZ Snap® Team - Great feedback. Thank you Sean.

I’m sorry to say this product did not work for my customer, all the buttons that where placed on the window fell off they adhesive buttons did not stay on. JS

EZ Snap® Team - Sorry to hear about this. 3M Adhesive Fasteners have a successful track record; however, the mounting surface must be totally smooth, flat, clean, and above 60F for 72 hours (during installation) for a strong bond. Correct spacing between Fasteners is also very important.

EZ SNAP was exactly the solution I needed to prevent further damage to my new, expensive vinyl siding.

The sun reflecting off of the window literally melted and warped the siding it reflected upon.

When I realized what was happening, it was a frantic race to find something that would cover the window and minimize the damage. While I researched, I covered it with newspaper, then ordered a special film. Once I put the film in place and watched for a few sunny days, I was dismayed to see the melting continue.

I went online to research any other possibilities I thought might serve the purpose. I came across this product, studied the options and chose the single window kit.

It was surprisingly easy to put on, holds tight, looks beautiful and I'm proud to say I was able to do it myself.

Best of all, the damage has ceased!!!

I can't put into words what a relief it is to know that my screen is providing the protection I needed.

Thank you for a wonderful product. Please see attached.

Sincerely,
Kimberly Powell

EZ Snap® Team - Happy to help stop melted vinyl siding. Thank you for your review Kimberly.

I only ordered enough for one window because it’s pretty expensive. I have one large window that is in direct sun all day long and that’s the one I chose to cover.

After it was installed I wish the instructions had said to start in the middle and work your way out to each edge. It would have made installation much easier. Some of the little spikes broke while putting the black mesh over them.

All in all I am not sure if there was any difference heat wise although being September I will wait until next summer to make my final decision.

PS there was a reference about taking it down and storing it but I am afraid the little sharp pieces will break if I try to take it down for the winter.

Cheryl B.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Cheryl. Please report back and let us know how the shades handle the summer heat in Regina. Here's a quick video showing how to undo EZ Snap Fasteners correctly without breaking the Pins:https://www.youtube.com/embed/BUS58IuLrI8

I found EZ Snap when googling a screen-like product to fit over my windows on the outside since everything I’d tried on the inside didn’t help. All of the measurement/installation instructions were on the website for me to look over before deciding to make the purchase.

I ordered what I needed and was very excited when all the supplies came, and in a single container! The instructions were precise and easy to follow. I carefully measured, marked the fabric, measured again and cut everything out over a three day period. I made a miscalculation and had to order more fabric, plus there was an unequal number of studs, pins and caps so I had to order more of those just to finish. So when they say to order extra, whatever that number is of extra you need, double it in case of a mistake or you don’t get enough.

Once the window casements were cleaned (or the glass in some places), I put up the studs and waited three days. We get a lot of wind with the daily summer storms in Florida so I wanted them to be as strong as possible. The pins were difficult to fit over the studs because there isn’t a lot of surface to place your fingertips and you have to push VERY HARD. So, I used a ratchet, put a socket on it that fit over the pin perfectly and using the heel of my hand popped in on the stud. This was fast and much less painful.

The fabric went on the pins easily and the removal tool helped to save my fingertips getting the fabric all the way down.

Putting the caps on was a breeze. I now have beautiful shade throughout my home and the difference in temperature is incredible! When my screen door is open (half of the EZ Snap fabric is on the screen door because of the lack of space between the two sliding glass doors - see video) and the sun is shining brightly in the morning, it is hot on your skin and heats up the room quickly, even with the blinds closed. But when I close the screen door with the EZ Snap fabric, the difference in temperature on my skin is like night and day! (I use this to illustrate to others how well it works!) My home doesn’t heat up like it used to and my A/C runs A LOT less.

I highly recommend (and have!) EZ Snap to anyone who wants to save money & keep their homes cooler with immediate results.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your positive review and photos Diane. Great to hear the EZ Snap is keeping your cool in Florida!

Easy to install.

I'm surprised how good the visibility is through the black screen from inside the house.

We no longer have those burning hot reflections from the windows that would burn the grass, our pool liner, or melt the plastic parts on our cars in the driveway!

Thanks EZ Snap! This is the solution I've been seeking for years.

Scott

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Scott. EZ Snap stops those nasty window reflections every time.

I just wanted to start off by saying how much I like the EZ-Snap product.

The installation went very smooth, and the directions were easy to follow.

The product looks great from the outside, and the view from the inside looking out is uninterrupted so my wife loves it too.

This home is in Arizona so we get plenty of sun every day.

I would highly recommend this product for anyone looking for window shade coverings!

As you can see from the one picture inside with the two windows, the one on the left has the EZ-Snap cover on it and the one on the right does not, what a big difference.




Now my wife doesn’t have to cover up the couch with blankets to keep the sun off of it any more.

We also noticed a big difference in the temperature inside the house during the day. This product definitely lives up to its name!

Thank you,
Mark

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the compliments Mark.

Great product...

Very easy installation which was nice, seeing as I was standing on a ladder almost 20 feet off the ground.

Sean D.

EZ Snap® Team - Nice work Sean. Thanks for your review.

I'll be truthful, I was a little surprised at the quality of packaging and the materials.

Because of the very competitive pricing, I feared a bit that I was buying disposable materials.

But, starting with how the box was packed, I am pleasantly surprised. The box was packed well and the fasteners were all neatly sealed in their own compartments.

Using the adhesive backed fixtures, installation was easy.

The sunscreen cut easily. It doesn't stretch (which is good) and looks nice.

My wife loves that we can leave one of the insulated shades up and get daylight in the living room.

I cannot speak to long term durability, but so far, I am very happy.

An important note is that not nearly enough fasteners came with the package. I have larger windows and we do have some high wind days. In order to space according to the instructions, I had to order about $75 more in adhesive type fasteners. But if everything lasts for at least three years, I will be satisfied.

Ed

EZ Snap® Team - Happy to hear EZ Snap exceeded your expectations Ed. Thanks for your feedback.We find most of our customers appreciate the ability to calculate and order exactly how many fasteners their unique project will need, rather than having to pay for a higher priced kit with more fasteners than necessary.During the purchase process, every customer is informed about the importance of calculating the number of fasteners required to install their unique shade project properly.EZ Snap has even developed custom software to calculate the correct fastener count with ease (Seen here: <a href="https://calculator.ezsnapdirect.com/">EZ Kit Size Calculator</a>). This fastener calculator is shown on every shade product page in the online store.If extra fasteners are required for your project, they can be purchased with your kit at a substantial discount over what you would pay if you chose to order just a few more at a later date, not to mention saving on the additional shipping costs.Every customer’s project is a little different and the kit size calculator ensures that each customer is ordering the right number of snaps for their project.

I installed these on eight windows in a living room to reduce the heat and that is exactly what they did.

I would recommend these for reducing heat from the sun.

Our living room is now very pleasant to sit in.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your recommendation and review Timothy.

I was looking for an economical solution for keeping out the summer heat in my front windows. After searching for awnings and shutters, I ran across these shades...

EZ Snap were very practical, not to mention affordable, AND the best part?

I could install them myself! So I’m not out fees for hiring a handyman.

Plus, no over priced mechanical shading systems.

Just size, cut and snap on.. I’ve never been more pleased with something so simple. So glad I found this system.

Thank you!

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Betty.

Last year, after reading the many favorable reviews of your solar window treatments, I purchased enough solar mesh to cover the kitchen and slider window on the east side of my house that are exposed to the sun all year round.

It made a very noticeable difference in the temperature of the kitchen and living room.

This spring I lost a 35-40’ Linden tree that shaded the west side of my house. Since the mesh was very successful on the east side of my house last year, I ordered more to cover the slider window, bedroom window and bathroom window that were now totally exposed on the west side and also 2 upstairs windows on the south side. The mesh was installed in early May.

I had planted the tree over 20 years ago so I had no way of knowing if the mesh was working except to compare my utility bills, which indicated no noticeable increase in the electricity consumption this year and the outdoor temps have been higher.

I’m very satisfied.

Additionally, in mid-July a straight line wind/twister storm hit our town and took out many trees. The west and north sides of the house were pelted with twigs, leaves and branches. I lost the top sash of a double hung window upstairs that was above the slider window on the west side of the house. It did not have your mesh on it and the glass was cracked by flying debris. But the glass in the slider window, bedroom window and bathroom window wasn’t damaged at all.

I am convinced the quality and strength of the mesh across the windows protected them from breaking.

The holes (created at installation in the mesh by the pins) were stretched a bit, but the window glass was unbroken. I had put the studs 7-8” apart. Another reason I think helped during the storm. I am very glad I didn’t have a big mess to clean up in my house. Thank you making a product that stands up to strong winds.

FYI…The slider window needs to be replaced because both thermal pane seals failed during the storm. A replacement window has been ordered, but the original style is no longer available.

I will need to order about 30 adhesive studs, but I want to wait till the new window is installed to make sure of the placement.

Again, I would highly recommend your solar mesh to anyone hesitant to invest the extra money. The quality of your products is well worth it.

Karen O.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Karen. Great to hear that EZ Snap Shades are working well for you.

Mounting screens

Your installation instructions are concise and for the most part work well...

I found that if you don't put uniform pressure on the screen it tends to pull in the direction you're pushing and leaves unwanted ripples. So I made a simple tool, in my case a hole punch with a plastic sleeve insert, to do the job.

End results were excellent and mounting the screens took about 3 minutes each.

A half inch dowel with a hole in the top slightly larger than the pin would do the job and not break pins nor the bank.

Hope this is helpful.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the tip John.

We had a real cooling challenge with our home after our shade tree died. The tree was removed and our single-pane sliding glass doors would now be exposed to western sunlight.

We live in South Florida, and that means significant heat-gain through the glass. Summer was just beginning and we found in the afternoons, you simply could not touch the glass, it was too hot.

My wife found EZ Snap and suggested we try it. I am glad she did.

We covered both panels of our sliding glass doors and have found the glass is no longer too hot to touch, but actually it is merely warm.

We can already tell this will save on power trying to cool that room. Thank you for a great product.

EZ Snaps are the best thing ever, easy to use.

I used them to put solar screens on my house and my travel trailer.

Thank You,
Robin DeGrange

EZ Snap® Team - Happy to hear your comments, thanks.

Worked great for us.

We needed to cover some high trapezoidal windows in sort of an A frame shaped house.

This did the job relatively inexpensively.

It stopped the heat and light on the outside of the house. Light control is better and we do not squint inside as much when it is bright.

We had one windstorm yesterday and they held up fine so far.

Thanks,
Lesley Wong

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the positive review Lesley.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your order and your positive review Greg.

The name is correct. They are very easy to install. Took me about 45 minutes start to finish for 3 windows in the front of my house. Being that my house is west facing and I had to cut down 3 large trees out front in April of 2018, so direct sunlight had been a problem. I figured these would do the trick. We have had a very mild summer this year, so I compared this month with the same month last year and my cooling costs were more expensive. I just don't think these things do quite as much as advertised. They look decent and I guess I'm only out $270 bucks. Don't expect much.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the feedback Tony. Cooling costs are determined by multiple factors including, but not limited to, window coverings. The old shade trees were likely providing lots of cool shade for the walls and roof of the home, as well as the windows, prior to being cut down. Blocking the sun's heat on the windows with EZ Snap Shades definitely helped reduce cooling costs. Unfortunately, window shades won't stop that heat from penetrating the walls and roof that used to have shade from the trees.

Living in Florida, the blinding, hot sun is everpresent. Even with closing the white horizontal blinds covered by blackout curtains, the living room and my office were very uncomfortable in the afternoons, not to mention the bright glare in the mornings on the East side of the house!

When I searched for a product that would stop the sun's intrusion from the outside, EZ Snap was on the results page and after reading the info, reviews and watching the videos, I knew that was exactly what I was looking for.

The application instructions for the fasteners were clear and everything went up as easily and exactly as the instructions stated. The fabric as well.

That said, I can now leave my blinds and curtains open at all times! Standing in front of my sliding glass door in the past felt like I was getting an instant sunburn in the mornings. Now, moving from shade to sun, the difference is SO SLIGHT! Light without heat is a miracle!

I know our A/C system is working less and my office is NO LONGER unbearable in the afternoons!

Thank you to the inventors of this marvellous product and the easy order/shipping process on your website.

I have told several people about your product and hope they too install EZ Snap shade systems on their homes soon!

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your great review Diane. We appreciate the positive feedback from happy customers.

Hi Troy,

The window above the bench is a basement window where we have a desk. We now will not have to keep closing and opening the shutters.

The last pic is the new shades for our bedroom and the first pic is from last years order.....absolutely love it!

Thanks Troy...have a great day!🙂

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the compliments and photos Lesa!

I LOVE this product! I used EZ Snap shade cloth on my worst sun exposed windows 10 years ago. I remove and clean them every fall, and they are still as good as they were 10 years ago! And we live in Sacramento, CA with a handful of days over 100 degrees and many, many over 90 degrees every summer.

A few years later, I bought more and came up with a better way to "install" them... I bought outdoor Velcro in 1 inch wide strips. I cut in half lengthwise to 1/2 inch width and stuck a 4 inch long strip on each side of the corner of the window sash and the soft side of the Velcro on the corner of the shade cloth. (On really wide windows, I also used a 4 inch long, 1 inch wide center piece.)

This way, there's nothing stuck to my window glass (a problem if you have to replace the glass like I did), and taking them off is much easier!

This spring, I invested in a custom roll to finish nearly all my windows! Keeps the house cool without using the A/C so much, and looking through them from the inside, looks just about exactly as looking out windows without the shade cloth/vinyl.

Linnelle

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the review and Velcro suggestion Linnelle.

Troy,

Finally had some dry weather so we could do the install.

We captured what the reflection of the windows looked like on the siding last night. The reflection was so hot that my neighbor could not hold his hand there very long. I regret not grabbing the actual temperature before we install the screen just to find out.

The first pictures are those of what it was like before and the other three are of what it looks like after and shows that the reflection is entirely gone (still a hint there but no heat on the one spot).

The last picture is the install on one of the windows. We have done three west facing windows on the neighbor's house...





If you would like a statement endorsing your product also please let me know.

Have a great weekend.

Brad Wuitchik

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your update and photos Brad. Glad EZ Snap has stopped your melted vinyl siding problem.

I think you give too few ezsnaps for the large amount of material I bought and then you charge way too much for a few more to finish the job.

While it is a good product the mounting cost is way too expensive for small plastic parts that can't cost much to produce.

I first learned about this product almost 10 years ago when Budget Blinds installed on my old dome skylights. It helped tremendously. They lasted almost 10 years!

When we purchased a new roof in 2018, we had the screening replaced! It stayed in place during hurricane Florence in September 2018! Amazing!

So, I decided this senior lady would order and install the screen DIY on all my sunny summer windows and doors!

It is the best product! I highly recommend it! Instantly cooler in my house!

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your great review and video Carolyn.

Dear EZ Snap,

And yes it was a snap. As a 60 year old machinist I am not the easiest person to impress.

I had originally purchased enough material to cover two windows in my mud room and a small kitchen window. I was skeptical as to the ease of install and the ability to see through these heavy looking screens. Judging from the views of the material I really didn't think it would work so well trying to see through. I knew that covering the window to "tame" the heat of the sun would be quite helpful. I did not purchase enough to do my whole house.

The install videos seemed easy enough and the EZ snap system looked like it would work.

Once I received the material, I printed the directions and started to layout my material for the windows. I discovered that I had purchased enough material for 4 full size windows instead of the 2 full size and the small kitchen window, thanks to the reminder in the instructions to "nest" the cutting of my material.

While I am familiar with VHB tape, I decided to go with the stainless steel screw on mounts for the EZ snap system. This worked well, having measured and marked everything to use about 1 for every 8.5 inches.

Cutting the material was a breeze. I was worried about this as I did not want the material to look ragged.

Installation of the material was even easy.

I plan on finishing the rest of my house as soon as possible.

EZ Snap® Team - Nice work Bill. Great review... Thanks!

Love them and so easy to install and really cut down on the sun light and heat build up. Will buy again if I need to again.
Mike C.

EZ Snap® Team - Glad to hear the Shades are working for you Mike.

Having just completed my window shade install, I wanted to let you know how impressed I am with the ease of install.

Also, I can’t remember the last time I assembled anything with as many plastic parts without finding a few errors in manufacturing! Out of the 194 fasteners ordered, all three components of each were in working order. Thank you for a well made product!

I did find it a little uncomfortable pressing on the studs, pins and shades. I’m sending pics of my self made install tools. Hope they can be help for other installers.



Wanda Hylton

EZ Snap® Team - Thank you Wanda for your great review and tips.

Love your product and the ease of installing.
My thumbs have cuts and I used a large washer to snap on the pin to the base. Made the job super simple.
Thank you.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the tip!

Thank you again for your product!

Before and After Photos...

  

EZ Snap® Team - Nice installation Chad... Thanks for sending photos!

I do think that my house was cooler this past summer in 2018.

I used screws plus the adhesive on the hooks because the summer sun is very hot where I live.

In 2019, I am ordering more for the full glass storm doors.

I like that I can open the curtains during the daylight hours and can look outside, but no one can look inside.

Thank you very much EZ Snap.

Judy

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Judy. Happy to hear that your Window Shades are working well for you.

I am extremely pleased with my EZ Snap project.

I live in California’s beautiful Central Valley, and the summers are scorchers.

I used the EZ Snap system to install shade cloths on my sunroom windows, and I couldn’t be more pleased.

I am 76 years old, and found the installation process to be quick and easy.

Happy customer here.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your positive review!

First off .... Thanks for prompt shipping and UPS is the best out here in northwest, nowhere AZ.

This is an Excellent Product and it does lower the temperature inside our travel trailer.

Installation of the adhesive snap bases and the fabric is not a challenge. I marked all of the adhesive snap base locations prior to installing the snap bases. Ensure that you clean the attachment areas around the windows with isopropyl alcohol before attaching the adhesive bases. I used 70% without mixing additional water without issues to the gelcoat or the designs on the sides of the coach. I waited the full cure time (3 days) for the adhesive backing and used 5" spacing for the snaps because we have winds in excess of 45 mph on occasion.

Installation of the fabric is straightforward with paying attention to the provided installation pamphlet from EZ Snap. I ordered an additional bit of fabric just in case of oooooopps on my part. Adhere to the old adage... "Measure twice, cut once". Take no chances !!

Do not stretch the fabric tight when setting the fabric onto the pins and locking it into place, you could encounter problems later on and have to redo the positioning of the fabric.

Also, the snap removal tool works as advertised and comes in handy!

I will buy this product again and install on our next coach. Thanks EZ Snap for a great product!

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your positive review Brad.

We purchased our second roll of shade mesh to do windows in our second house.

The first roll went fast as we gave pieces to others to try and finished our primary house.

Quite the difference when we put up the ones in the dining room, west facing, it is now much cooler
in the evening... Next summer we will finish the other house, can’t wait.

Carol Marcinowski

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your repeat business Carol.

Really happy with the EZ Snap system.

Really easy to install and remove.

The shade screen has really helped with the heat in the summer. Makes at least 15 degrees difference from windows with the shade to windows without...

Derryl L.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Derryl. Glad the Window Shades are keeping you cooler.

Thanks to EZ Snap I've completed a 14 window project in a Snap and the house holders are so very happy with the look and expecting great heat shun performance next summer as the hot season looks to be over for this year.

Expecting up to 3 other big west facing glass house projects come next June before the real heat of July hits us at our Lake Resort community.

Installation, product and service quality were all outstanding and much appreciated especially when installation promised timing was easily met with quality project results obtained

Thanks EZ Snap for making it a SNAP.

Garret Madell

EZ Snap® Team - Glad to hear it Garret... thanks for your review.

Bought the kits in March and installed per the instructions. Installed adhesive discs on 2 large windows facing east and a door and one large window facing west. We live in Tucson Az. All was fine until the temps climbed to 110. The windows and door facing east began having problems. The discs started to come loose. A few disconnected from the metal they adhered to the middle of July. Today, August 4, 2018, the top part of the window screen came totally off. Temps in 110’s . I am willing to redo but not sure at this point if I can put the disc on in 100 temps. BTW the window facing west?.. is doing fine. But it is under the cover of a porch. Have contacted the company. And will update.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for reporting back Marcie. Sorry to hear about the Fasteners coming off. Without being there to have a look, it's hard to say what may have caused this to happen. The 3M VHB Adhesive is a commercial grade that is designed to withstand high heat applications. Perhaps the mounting surface was not totally smooth, too narrow, or there were too few Fasteners for the large windows. For other customers reading this review, Fastener spacing for windows larger than 24 square feet must be MAX 5 inches apart.

Bought one window kit to try it out in our dining room which was like an oven in the afternoon.

It was shocking how well it worked.

We have plants in that window and I was worried they wouldn't like the lower light. After 5 weeks they're doing great. They're getting plenty of light but no heat.

Just finished installing kits on all our east/west facing windows.

This product does what it promises. I'm so happy I found this.

Follow their directions and installation will be a piece of cake. PLANNING is everything.

One more thing: the caps and studs are slippery and easy to drop. Be careful and you'll save extra trips up and down the ladder and looking for them.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Dale, for the great review and your tips. Happy to hear EZ Snap is working for you.

Folks, you are fabulous!

Just Saw your email. Checked outside my front door. And there was a tall box of EZSNAP items. Yay!

What a pleasant surprise.

Had you not alerted me, the box may have stayed there all night.

Your customer service has been top-notch from the start. Much appreciated.

Kindest regards,
- Larry, Long Island NY

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks Larry, hope the installation goes smoothly for your big project.

While we were hopeful this would be a good solution to lowering the songbird window strikes in our sunroom, these "studs" are pretty poor at staying attached to our vinyl siding outside of the windows. Lasted ALMOST 3 months, then start falling off in sequence. We've replaced four so far and I'm faced with three more, and one of the four needs replacing again. And yes, followed all of the directions and instructions including cleaning the surface with isopropyl. I'm looking at removing these panels before the rest of the studs fall off.

Bottom line is this product pretty much sucks and I threw away around $250 to learn my lesson. Would not recommend these to anyone.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for your feedback Lennie. Sorry to hear that the 3M Adhesive Fasteners did not work for your application. For other customers reading this review, it is important to note that vinyl siding generally has a wood-grain texture and is NOT a good mounting surface for 3M Adhesive. For textured surfaces it is necessary to use one of EZ Snap's Screw-in Fasteners. As an alternative to Screw Fasteners, the 3M Adhesive Studs can be mounted directly onto the glass.

I have been searching for years for an inexpensive way to cool my upstairs. I was almost ready to put in a second HVAC system when I stumbled upon EZ snap.

The windows face west and they get pummelled by the sun.

I just installed these and with my thermal imaging camera there is a 23 degree difference between the window with the solar shade and the one without. I could not even believe it. I went back every hour to check and it was still the same readings!

The install was super easy and it actually looks decent. I was worried they would look like covers over the windows but they appear more like thick window screens. Hopefully they hold up long term, but for the price you really can't beat it!

Thank you so much!



  

EZ Snap® Team - Glad to hear it... thanks for your positive review James.

Best product ever. Finally got a chance to install, with the weather warmer (thanks for the heads up on making sure it was warm enough), Easy to measure, easy to install, and they look amazing. Already our front (west facing) block window is an improvement (not just for the look) in that in the afternoon when before I had to close the thermal curtains, now I can leave them open and actually touch the blocks--absolutely cool instead of incredibly hot.

Our office is on the back and gets the morning sun, and the room is impossible to keep cool. So I'm excited to realize how much cooler it will be. But we really got these for privacy, because the house behind us looks right in. For the first time, I can open the curtains and see the sky, and let the light in, without feeling exposed. Not to mention the same privacy now installed in the master bedroom!

So, I will tell everyone I know what a marvelous product you have. I actually have two more windows to do, and will be ordering another piece.

Thanks again, may you live long and prosper!

EZ Snap® Team - Glad to hear it... thanks for your positive review.

Spent about $ 500 putting EZ Snap solar shades on exterior home windows with a southern exposure. Home is located is located in Southern California. FOllow directions to the “T”, but unfortunately the EZ Snap adhesive tabs only lasted about 4 months before they de-bonded and the screens fell from the window. Wasted enormous amount of time and $ with this solution. Complete loss...moving on to another solution. Waste of money and time with this product.

EZ Snap® Team - Sorry to hear about this. 3M Adhesive Fasteners have a successful track record; however, the mounting surface must be totally smooth, flat, clean, and above 60F for 72 hours (during installation) for a strong bond. Correct spacing between Fasteners is also very important.

You have a great, well thought out product that performs extremely well in the searing Australian sun (we get temperatures up to 46 degrees centigrade or about 115 degrees Fahrenheit - here in Adelaide in summer).

And it looks good when it’s in place, unlike most other shade cloth.

We have 4 windows shaded during last summer and it made a big difference to the temperatures inside our home and helped cut down on air-conditioning costs while adding to our comfort. These are the reasons we have decided to shade some more windows.

The removability is important so that we can maximize winter sun for its warmth.

Regards,
Ken

EZ Snap® Team - Hello Ken from down under. Thanks for your positive review.

I had a hot tub cover with the core being melted and warped my the reflection from my bedroom window. The magnifying effect was so intense.

I put the EZ snap on the window and problem solved.

It was easy to put on. I like the fact it can be taken off in winter.

Great solution and exactly what I needed to save my $500 hot tub cover!

Anthony Ertassi

EZ Snap® Team - Glad to help. Happy to hear your melting problem has been solved.

I moved into this house a few years ago and our kitchen windows face southwest, so we get a lot of sunshine for most of the day. On very hot summer days the air conditioner would not keep up and the house temp would increase a degree or 2.

Sitting by the window, I could also feel how much heat was coming through.

After some research, I purchased the solar screen from EZ Snap.

I just installed the solar screen on the outside of my windows, and waited for a full day of sun to gauge the difference, and both my wife and I were very impressed on the reduction of heat coming through the window.

The install and ordering online was very simple.

Great product

Thanks
L. Remillard

EZ Snap® Team - Great review. Thank you.

Awesome

EZ Snap® Team - That sums it up in one word, thanks.

Worked out great.

Steve T.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for letting us know.

After many hours of research I found this “EZ-Snap” product the perfect solution to the problem of melting artificial turf caused by the concentration of the sunlight from Low-E glass windows. Windows with normal screens in them usually defuse the light enough to keep the reflective heat from melting the turf. However if standard aluminum screens cannot be fitted due to non-operable window or where there is only a screen on the lower opening part of the windows EZ-Snap is the great solution.

All other solutions are either unsightly or come with a 10% chance of window breakage due to the glass itself overheating. If 4 windows are treated with the other film type of solution you would have a 40% chance of having to replace one of the those windows.


Sunlight reflected off my neighbour's south facing windows.


The beam of light hitting my new artificial turf.
The temperature of that light at the turf is above 190 degrees.


The upper panes of the upper window with the EZ-Snap window coverings installed.

Looking out from the inside of the unit looks like a normal screen and does not take the view away. It also knocks the reflective heat down by about 75 %.

NIGHTMARE RESOLVED !!!!

Now I just need to repair the damaged turf.

Tom F.
San Francisco Ca.

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for sending us your review and photos Tom. We are asked about how to fix melting turf all the time.

This product worked EXACTLY as advertised. Very easy to install, and it really helps keep the room cooler in the Las Vegas sun.

I would highly recommend it.

F. Millstead

EZ Snap™ Team - Happy to hear EZ Snap Shades are working for you.

Great for attaching shade material to wood arbors or pergolas when you use the screws.

Makes for easy removal come winter time.

This is my second time using them and I honestly cannot think of another way that would work better.

My application is a south facing wood arbor that catches a lot of breeze and the EZ Snap method holds my shade material down without any issues. I give them a 5 out of 5 stars.

I also use the EZ Snaps to hold down the same shade material on my home's skylights. Again, works great and I have never had the material come loose. Thanks for a great and useful product.

Scott Gibbons

EZ Snap® Team - Your review will be helpful for others looking for do it yourself pergola ideas, thanks.

I found EZ Snap on line while looking for a solution to excess solar gain in our 5th wheel while snow birding in Texas.

As I considered the benefits of their product it occurred to me that I might be able to use it to solve another problem we have at home too. We have a building near our bird feeders that has several windows.

I wondered if installing the EZ Snap Screens on those windows might help prevent bird strikes on the glass. I can say now that it was an easy solution to a heart wrenching problem.

We have not had any bird fatalities since I installed the screening this spring. The screens still allow plenty of daylight into the building and, of course, it allows unobstructed views to the outdoors.

Easy to install and it performs as advertised.

EZ Snap® Team - Saving birds one window at a time... happy to hear about your success story.

Great product!

Easy to install.

Works as advertised.

Cuts down on the heat radiating through your windows and cuts down on the air conditioning cost.

Really satisfied!

D. Lovie
Holland, Manitoba

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for the photos. We are satisfied when our customers are satisfied.

EZ Snap™ Team - Nice installation Wayne. Thanks for sending your before and after photos.

Here are some photos of the installed EZ Snap shades on all of the south-facing windows and doors of our house in central Pennsylvania. We've covered the sunroom (center of the photos) and it has made a minimum 15 degree difference in that room. This has allows me to convert the sunroom to a more useable space - one we can inhabit year-round. Prior to the shades, it used to get into the 90's easily, despite being well insulated. The photos are a bit deceiving as those windows are floor to ceiling.

In the other rooms which are now covered, It's making a huge difference helping the AC keep up in the mid-day heat, and making the house an even temperature throughout.

We're thankful EZ Snap worked with us when we required more snaps than were supplied with our 50' roll. I'd gladly recommend your product for its effectiveness, ease of installation and how we're still able to open and close the windows as weather permits. The only recommendation I'd make is for a much larger number of snaps to be included with the longer rolls.

Thanks so much,
Marsha Clark

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks for letting us know!

Awesome. Saving my siding.

EZ Snap® Team - Glad to hear it... works every time!

EZ Snap was an affordable way for us to solve an issue in our home! We originally looked to replaced older windows in our daughters room and office. These windows face southeast. Each day the sun would rise, these two rooms would go up in temperature significantly and the room would be stale, unbreathable during the summer months in particular.

I did some research on government websites dedicated to energy conservation and they mentioned options for reducing energy costs. One of the options was to have the windows replaced, the other was to use an exterior shade.

After researching and pricing, we found the the EZ Snap product. It was far more affordable and a much quicker solution to our problem. It also did not require us to hire contractors as my husband was able to easily install.

The customer service team was also very helpful when we called with minor questions.

The best news is that I can once again work in my office during the summer months. More importantly, my little one is able to sleep in her room again! Perfect air flow once again. The bonus is that the rest of our home has benefited as well with reduced temperatures throughout. We only have central air so this is a definite plus for us.

This is a wonderful product!

B. Edwards

EZ Snap® Team - Great news. Thanks for letting us know.

My son has just installed the mesh.

Instructions were very easy to follow.

The product was up in no time.

Product works very well.

We are extremely pleased with product.

Thank you,

EZ Snap® Team - Thanks, we appreciate your positive review.

We bought the 50' kit and installed the shades on all our windows and doors in about 8.5 hours, the claim of a reduction in temp. is true fact. This product has reduced our temp. inside at least 15+ degrees.

EZ Snap™ Team - Thanks for your positive feedback Wayne!

This product was very easy to install.

Instructions were easy to follow.

Product has the feel of a durable quality material.

Before Beige Patio Shade Mesh Installation:


After Beige Patio Shade Mesh Installation:

EZ Snap™ Team - Nice work Lance... Beige was definitely the best choice for your patio screens.

This was the best money we spent all summer (if you don’t count my husband’s new boat).

EZ Snap screens have made such a significant difference to the second floor. The whole house has benefitted. We really do love them.

Thank you EZ Snap!

EZ Snap™ Team - Great feedback, thanks.

I was worried that the 3M studs would not stand up, as I had read some negative reviews on the web about them. The more I researched though, I realized that the negative reviews were all about the product that Coolaroo use to sell.

Apparently, the EZ Snap studs that Coolaroo was selling was a discontinued product and used the original version of the studs.

The new and improved studs are bigger and are made differently.

I have had the studs I bought from EZ Snap installed for over 8 months now and they are all sticking just fine. The studs that EZ Snap sold me are 7/8” across and the old Coolaroo ones are only ¾” in diameter. Make sure that where ever you buy your EZ Snap, that they are the new larger ones.

Great product for keeping the sun’s heat out. It has lowered the temperature in both rooms that I put it on.

Great product. Delivered on time by UPS.

This product is what I'd expected. Very easy to install. Thank you.

What a difference! Easy to install and looks great on my windows. I would recommend this to anyone that needs to protect the inside of their home or floors from damaging UV rays in the summer. The adhesive snaps work well on glass or metal, just make sure you wait at least 24 hours for the adhesive to really bite onto the surface, before you install the shade cloth material that comes in the kit.

We are really happy with the EZ Snap System screen. Our house has a room with a with a very large window facing east. I placed a thermometer in that room through the summer. On sunny days, the thermometer commonly read 30c (86f). This was the reading, even though the air conditioner was running and other rooms in the house were being maintained in the low 20 degrees Celsius.

We made sure all vents were completely open in the room. We first installed interior solar shades and even blackout window blinds. These two items did help some, but the room was still unusable and very hot.
We even paid for a HVAC company to do an inspection. They said the insulation, ducting etc was good. The problem was the heat load from the window. This window was only 3 years old and so we thought the only way to fix this would be to replace the window with a smaller one. That solution solution was going to be a huge project, as well as very expensive, as that section of the house has a stone exterior.

Before we downsized the window, I thought I would research one more time and look for a less expensive option. I found the EZ Snap exterior shades and figured for less than $200, it was worth a try, especially compared to the new window, which was going to cost thousands.

THIS SHADE SYSTEM IS FANTASTIC.

The shades look good on the house, although I noticed that when I installed them that I put a few wrinkles into the fabric in the corners. Most important though is that they are the functionality and they work. We put the shades up on a hot Summer weekend.

On day 1 (Saturday), before the screens went up, the room was 29 degrees by 10:30 AM.
The outside temperature was 25 degrees Celsius.

On day 2 ( Sunday), with the screens up, the room never got warmer than 23 degrees.
The outside temperature was also 25 degrees Celsius.

ONE MONTH LATER.
Since installing EZ Snap, the thermometer in that room shows the temperature is now remaining the same as the rest of the house. I'm a little shocked every time I walk into the room, as I expect to be hit by a heat wave. Problem Solved.

Love this stuff, made a huge difference in the heat allowed into the house.

56 years and female what a breeze to install. I did it myself. I had just poured US $2,500 into re-insulating my attic and still was not getting relief from our 105 degree temps this year…

“…The package arrived promptly and then I realized I also needed some stick on snaps, they arrived in three days. Total time to cover all my windows on a 2500 square foot patio home, about one day. Instantly my air conditioner is able to get my home to about 75 degrees. It was not breaking 83-85 before and it NEVER turned off.

Best US $400 ever spent, that’s including the special tool to install the screw in caps.

Thank you from Houston, Texas and our hottest summer so far on record.

I love the solar screen and it is really helping with the intense sun coming into my window.
Cheers

Hi guys. I spoke to you on the phone last week regarding the EZ Snap shade screens we installed on our windows. Wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the coverings.

We live overlooking Okanagan Lake with our living room, dining room and kitchen windows all all having a southern exposure. We decided to cover all the south and west facing windows with the shade screens. Wow, what a difference it has made to the temperature in our home! In past summers we would normally run the air conditioning from around 11:00 in the morning till later in the evening but since we have had the screens on our windows we have only had the air conditioning on for 2 or 3 days this summer and then only in the later part of the afternoon on the really hot days.

Generally, with the screens installed, it keeps the house temperature at around 25 degrees Celsius (77 F). This is the temperature we would normally have set our air conditioning at! My wife and I figure it has dropped the inside temperature about 4 or 5 degrees. So our house now stays cool, we still enjoy our incredible view, and we hardly use the air conditioning.

Lastly, installation was easy. I had my son help me with the higher windows and we got the windows covered in a day. Its a great product for the hot Okanagan climate, that is effective, easy to install and a cost saver. I would have no problem recommending the screens to my friends.

We are very pleased.

Cath, my wife, is very pleased.

She feels the lower temperature already and likes the view outside.

I like how easy EZ Snap was to install and the temperature reduction.

EZ Snap™ Team - We're pleased when our customers are pleased!

Living in Vernon, B.C. during the intense heat of summer use to mean, being secluded in a closed curtain home, trying to keep the heat out.





Now with our new EZ snap solar blinds, it means enjoying the beautiful views of our sunny garden. Cheers to you EZ Snap for inventing this eco friendly alternative to air conditioning our home. Bamboo blinds are so 1980, we love our new blinds!

I think these shades are a very ingenious idea – keeps the heat out in hot weather – no more ugly bamboo blinds in front of my windows to block the heat – I Love it.

Hello,

Here are a couple of pictures of the screens I put on my house.

I sure love them!

EZ Snap™ Team - Thanks for the photos. Glad to hear you love them.

Thank you again for the Sunshade my wife and I recently purchased from you.

The installation was a snap.

My wife is very pleased at how it looks on the windows and how well it keeps the heat out.

Just wanted to let you know I recently installed the window sun screens on my home here in Arizona. The shades were extremely easy to install and with the amount of heat and sun we get here the screens are fantastic…

…I have already seen a dramatic decrease in indoor temperature and with summer coming I am sure the shades will reduce my AC costs significantly. If the sun screens work here they will work anywhere, guaranteed!

Your product works great and saves $$$. I estimate I saved over $1000 over conventional aluminum sun shades. In fact if anyone in the area wanted to see the shades I would be happy to show them.

Feel free to give out my e-mail address [email protected] for contact.

P.S. My friend was so impressed with the shades he will be ordering materials to do his home in Scottsdale.

EZ Snap™ Team - Thanks for your great review. We appreciate your support and referrals.

Another suggestion is for sliding doors. I have attached with the sticking fasteners to the stationary side of the door and then replaced the screen on the screen door for the other side of the door.

As long as the screen door is kept closed (and the sliding door) then we are covered. This idea might be a suggestion for others to try too.

I like the product for windows that we never remove the screening. I have used it for about 6 years and it still looks the same as the day I put it on.

Hello EZ Snap, I received my order and installed the same.

Wow, what a great reduction in heat transfer.

I installed EZ-Snap on my south and east facing windows last year (west windows are shaded by a porch). I agree completely with the other testimonials about the temperature decrease and added comfort.

Also I have to mention the reduced glare. We have a large east-facing dining room window that was impossible to look out of in the morning hours due to the brightness. We always had to keep the shades drawn.

No more -- it's great to be able to enjoy our east view in the morning hours.

Another compliment -- living the USA Midwest we experience hot summers and cold winters. Last fall I removed the shades because we want to let the sun in during the cold winter months. I removed 3 standard window shades and the large dining room shade (which requires a 24 foot extension ladder) in less than 30 minutes -- that includes rolling and storing the shades.

I made sure to indicate the location and position of the shades. Using the tool made the job very simple. I just reinstalled the screens - absolutely no problems. All snaps stayed attached and the reinstall was less than 30 minutes also. Great product!

Tom Z. Missouri.”


UPDATE FROM TOM Z - (June 2012) -


I have just reinstalled my screens for their 4th summer. I have to mention that out of 72 peel & stick fasteners on my vinyl windows only 2 have failed.

They have endured temps ranging from 100+ to -16 below. I'm amazed at their performance. Also there has been absolutely no degradation of the shade material itself - it looks and performs as good today as it did when first installed.
