I need to sun cover for my new baby and don't want to faff around with a sun parasol, can anyone recommend one of the following as I'm not sure which one to go for. Thanks!

The 1st link offers better coverage but babies/toddlers tend not to like being enclosed once they get to 6-9mths.

I have a Protect-a-bub for DS 14mths which is fab, you can pull it into all sorts of positions to keep them out of the sun. Similar to you 2nd link, but maybe more flexible??

Vote against the shade a babe. Expensive and dd did not much like not being able to see out, even though she was a baby when we had it. Good resale on eBay though this week so whatever you choose you might nearly get your money back!

Go for a rayshade by kiddipotamus (or something like that). Can't do links but I think they are brilliant and people are always asking about mine. £25. It has spf 50 and the baby can see out as it fits over the hood of the buggy. just realised it's like your 2nd link but better imo because it can be made to cover more of the buggy and therefore baby/childs feet.
