Not known where you are located I am not sure just what you expect the shade to do. With me it was to keep snow off from me while I am blowing it away. I also have the weatherbreak and add heavy gauge plastic to close off the sides to keep the snow and cold out during the winter months.
If I was to buy another one I would look for one that the ribs run front to back as it would hold the snow and rain from coming down the sides and onto the driver.
I take the weatherbreak off in the spring but leave the sun shade on. This is the third winter with it and still holding up strong so no complaints from me.
I have this one as I needed one that folds down easily to make it into the garage. Also, when you run into a tree it just bends and snaps back. TuffTOP : The Smartest Sun Shade on the Market
