What ice? fantastic time saver!
What can I say, I looked at so many of these on Amazon, I couldn't decide. I wanted a good quality one that would fit my 2016 Peugeot Boxer. Most were simply too small and I nearly bought a truck one. This one had no reviews and seemed a reasonable price so I took a chance. BETTER than I expected! A good quality cover in a nice little flat bag - it doesn't require much storage which is excellent. It is so easy to fit, it really is. This thing is huge and would be suitable for any Large van or 4x4. It has four good magnets sewn into each corner so it can't scratch your paintwork. Just attach one side and pull the cover over to the other and do the same. The magnets keep the cover nice and taught across your screen which is what is important. It has big flaps on the sides so you can close the doors on them to keep it secure in case of a strong wind. It also has long ties on the two top corners to tie together inside the vehicle or on the headrests (but I don't bother its secure enough). Just pop your wipers over the bottom and its even more secure. It takes one to two minutes to put on (if that). I have used it for a few days now when the temperature here in the UK has been minus three. The screen was perfectly clear when the cover is taken off, no ice beneath at all. Takes less than 30 seconds to take it off and give it a shake, which I do later in the day also to make sure its dry. I wouldn't be without it now. It saves me so much time in the morning rather than running the engine for 20-30 minutes with the screen fan on to try and clear the screen or using loads of de-icer. A really nice, well thought out quality product, really impressed. Thank-you very much!

Huge!
The material quality is good, it's nice and thick. It folds down into a nice little bag which fits down between my door and driver seat so I can always remember to put it on at night. The magnets are strong and will withstand a lot of wind (I'm in Scotland and we have had a storm since I got it!).My car (BMW 5 Series Tourer) is a big old bus and no windscreen covers seemed to fit it. This one is HUGE however! Putting it on, I line the bottom seam up with the bottom of my my front window (well the vents under it), and the top reaches at least 1/3 of the way back on the roof! This is secure what with there being a magnet right in the middle at the top, but here lies a problem for a wee shortie like myself. To get the cover off, I can't reach the magnet on the roof to lift it off, so have to pull the cover to slide the magnet down towards the windscreen. Him in doors is already complaining about the magnets scratching his roof (THEY HAVE NOT so far!). You know how men are with their cars (rolls eyes).The size is great for also covering the side windows so the lazy me getting up at 0330 on a Scottish winter morning finds this cover fantastic for just jumping in the car and going.Well worth purchasing (particularly by short people who can't see if it scratches the roof anyway).(Disclaimer - for avoidance of doubt, this cover and it's magnets HAVE CAUSED ZERO DAMAGE TO MY CAR'S PAINTWORK)

A suggestion
So large that if it's windy you have a bit of a fight to fit, particularly if you have a small car! But it this is far better quality than any other frost protectors I've had and when it's NOT windy is a doddle to fit and secure. It's already in a class of its own, but maybe a couple more magnets along the top and bottom could make it even better?? If you could position the cover using the car roof first then it might be easier to fit, particularly on a small car (mine's a Corsa)

Be careful, scratch the car
A clever idea but unfortunately the magnets scratch your car if to pull the cover.The magnets are strong and fix to the car very easily, however as you are fitting the cover to the screen you easily pull the cover, magnets attached to the bodywork of your car and….. you end up with a scratch… the magnets should be more protected…. But it does work as would any cover on a screen in winter… just now have to pay for the body work repair…

Fitted, to a Chrysler Voyager 08
Brought for a big car, as most don't fit my measurements for our car.And actually, I was skeptical because of the price, but it is totally worth it.Magnets work, very well and woke up with it working perfectly, infact the car was warm with temps being minus outside.

OK
I don't agree with the manufacturer's claim that it is made of "heavy duty" material, it seems thin and flimsy to me and I had quite a job fitting it to my Freelander in a light summer breeze!The magnets seem quite weak and there needs to be more of them, on my car the two in the top corners are in the door shuts.I bought this to protect my car in the heatwave, I'm waiting for a better (I hope!) two part sunshield which is on order with Amazon USA.Hopefully this one will be a better fit on my Focus when the new one arrives.... I have just discovered that the magnets are polarised and when using the sunshade the fabric needs to be turned over so that the silver covering is next to the bodywork, otherwise the cover blows around in the wind, no mention of that in the "instructions", not impressed.

Great product which fits my car very well
Great product which fits my car very well. It has magnets on all corners which means that is stays firmly on the car. It covers the whole windscreen of my nissan xtrail. Great product - unfortunately the weather improved when I got the product so have only used once and there was no frost or snow...Sure it will work well when the frost comes. Great product - looking forward to not having to scrape ice and snow off my car ever again!

Purchased this, too big for my car, more suitable for a van.
Bought this for my car. Too big, more suitable for a van. Great quality, comes with its own storage bag, but a bit of a struggle to fit on screen and again to fold up. I gave it to my Son for his works van. Hopefully will be good in Winter as it fits to the outside of the window screen and claims to stop it being iced up?
