> 3 dayThis product was a life saver this summer for my son who started off the summer rear facing. We live in Vegas and the triple digits we’re making it impossible to keep my kid cool and he was always so sweaty by the time we would reach any destination regardless of distance. Now he forward faces and this product is still coming in handy with keeping him cool. My only gripe about this is the hose sits in the passenger seat making it a little uncomfortable for anyone riding in passenger seat other then that no other complaints.

Greater than one weekYou can’t hook the noggle with the zip ties to every cent. We duct taped ours and it works but it was a bummer.

> 3 dayThese are absolutely necessary in the Phoenix heat as temperatures rise. They keep my twins comfortable and give me peace of mind which is worth the price.

> 3 dayIts definitely easy to install. It does offer some relief but more like a trickle of cool air.

> 3 dayOh man, do I love our Noggle. Driving with my new baby in our car (Pontiac Vibe) used to cause me so much anxiety because it got so hot in the back seat. The Noggle directs a good amount of air back there and I feel so much relief (Now I just stress because my baby cries the whole time because he doesnt like being alone back there.) Installation was a little bit tricky and time consuming because its difficult to get the zip ties around the air vent (it may just be the design of the vents in our car, though.) The ties are removable though, which is awesome. I do recommend purchasing the rubber gasket from the Noggle site. Our dash is quite contoured, so quite a bit air was escaping around the top and bottom and not much got to the back seat. I tried super gluing some weather stripping to the inside, which worked okay. I ended up having to purchase a new vent cover because the original broke, and saw the gasket for sale on their site and decided to purchase it. It created a great seal and increased the amount of air to the back seat considerably. I recommend this for anyone without backseat vents!

> 3 dayFirst, the good -- this absolutely helps air reach my daughter who is still rear-facing and keeps her cooler than before. We live in the Deep South, which is seeing one of the hottest summers on record, and her head definitely isnt as sweaty as before we bought the Noggle. It was very easy to set up the Noggle and we had extra air flowing to the backseat in minutes. Now the bad -- I was disappointed that, even with the air on high, the air being released from the Noggle comes out at a pressure less than our air conditioner on low. I knew some pressure would be lost, of course, but was surprised it was that much. Also, I wasnt too thrilled when the purple dye bled off onto my leather seat, but a little packing tape on the areas of the Noggle that brush against the seat prevented that from happening again. All in all, this item is definitely a must have during hot summer months, especially if you have a child in a rear-facing car seat.

> 3 dayNever realized my new SUV didnt have 3rd row air until my twins and all of their friends piled into it to head to the first football game of the season. 110 degrees and no air in the 3rd row?! Totally unavceptable! The poor kids stuck in the back were heat sick by the time I dopped them off. I searched online for a solution that night and found the Noggle. It arrived 2 days later. It was easy to install, stretched all the way to the back, and kept the kids in the 3rd row ice cold for the following Fridays game - our high temperature was 112 that day and there wasnt a single complaint about the temp in the car! Detaches easily to store out of sight, has a velcro loop to attach to 2nd row headrest. Great invention!

> 3 dayI purchased this after seeing some commercial or other for it on facebook and thought it would solve an important issue my family has, that our back seats in the van dont have their own ac/heat. How it is that my brilliant husband with such a high IQ managed to buy a brand new van without checking to see if our most precious cargo would be comfortable in the back of it? Why are vans in this day and age even made without rear AC/Heat? Alas, by the time this flaw was discovered the deal was done and no way to correct it. So we all suffer, the small minions are uncomfortable depending on the time of year and of course my heart hurts for them and my head hurts from the complaining. So we got this thing! What the kids call the elephant hose. It wasnt hard to install in our dodge caravan and it is effective, some what. With 5 kids and them all wanting heat or AC at the same time of course it creates more infighting and no one, specially Moms want that. Dont make me pull over and give the elephant to your sister! Share nicely! is a phrase I admit has happened on more than one occasion. Of course the baby gets it first, the smallest and most helpless, and loudest if our bunch. Getting her cool or warm quickly is very important and to this product I am thankful for that help. However unless the weather is extreme, most often we all kind of just suffer as this is bulky and annoying to transport and often left in the garage. I wish it fit in the glove box! Do I recommend it for this issue? Yes. Be practical though, if you already have a very full van or SUV, how much space can you give up and will storing this become more trouble than it is worth at some point?

Greater than one weekIt says 30 seconds to install on the box, but it was very frustrating trying to get the zip tie in the vent the way it needed to be to attach the plastic thing. Then I had to play with it for awhile to figure out how to make it stay in place and actually blow air on my baby. Set up was very frustrating for me, but it does work very well and kept my baby cool on our two hour drive today. So 5 stars for functionality, 1 star for installation lol.

> 3 dayThe product works exactly as advertised but it connects to your vents with zip ties. Because of this it can damage your vehicle and ended up breaking out vent and now is no longer connected. We are taking the car to the dealership to fix the vent next week. Overall a disappointment since we couldnt use it for more than 2 weeks.
