> 24 hourI was so thankful to finally be able to turn my little guy around and be forward facing...and then his sister came along. After two sweaty summers we were thankful to have a forward facet that could feel the AC blowing on his face for once! Then his sister came along and here we are again. I just couldn’t do another summer of hot sweaty baby screaming in the back of the car. The AC in my Jeep Grand Cherokee is located on the center console towards your feet and it just cannot blow hard enough to reach a rear facing infant. We have hot summers here (over 100 a lot of days) and I have to go out sometimes to run errands. It sucks having two sweaty babies in the car! So...I found this device and it has helped a lot! It connects easily to the back vents with zip ties and then the hose connects to that vent clip. I have found that the hose can come unattached to the vent clip and then, obviously no air will come out of the hose. So, you have to watch that. My son likes to hold onto it too when Sis isn’t in the car with us.

> 24 hourBought this for my infant daughter. She is rear facing and would just sweat her little butt off in the backseat. Now she has her own little personal air vent and she is much more comfortable!

> 24 hourOne could be forgiven for thinking that a Toyota Corolla LE would be a small enough vehicle where air flow could make it to the back of the car. Thats unfortunately not the case. At least not in the Texas heat. My kids come out of the backseat with faces redder than tomatoes and sweating buckets. So, I got this. The smallest size that I could find comes at 6 ft in length. That is a HUGE size for this vehicle. The other issue I had was with the velcro strap. Either it is too long for my cars small size, or the velcro strap I had was bogus, because it wouldnt stay stuck together. And when I finally did get it to stick together, the vent droops down with the vent aimed at the floor. The price is also ridiculous. I could have bought a short garden hose for 10 bucks to do this same thing. I paid $70 and had to jerry-rig this thing to fit. Honestly Im going to give it a go today when I pick up the kids from school but I have my doubts that this is going to work. Im probably going to end up returning this by the end of the day. Im disappointed this didnt work out for my car. Im sure it works great for other vehicles. My friend loves hers and gave it a 5 star review, which is why I bought one. But she has an SUV where this hose fit like a glove. I do not. Like I said, it probably was designed for larger vehicles. I read that this company is just starting out with making these so I hope in the future they include hoses for compact vehicles. A 4 ft, or even a 2 ft hose would have worked just fine for my car. With a smaller Velcro strap to fit the narrow space between the front and back seats.

> 24 hourAs a parent, Im always looking for ways to keep my kids comfortable and happy during long car rides, especially in the summer heat. Thats why I was excited to try out the NOGGLE Kids Personal Air Conditioning System. This product is designed to keep kids cool and comfortable in the back seat of the car by providing a steady stream of cool air directly to them. The NOGGLE is easy to install, with a six-foot hose that connects to the cars AC vent and extends to the back seat. I was impressed with the quality of the product - it feels sturdy and well-made, and the hose is long enough to reach my kids in their car seats without any trouble. The black ice color looks sleek and modern, and the NOGGLE blends in nicely with the interior of my car. But most importantly, the NOGGLE really works! My kids were thrilled to have cool air blowing directly on them during our car ride, and it made a noticeable difference in their comfort level. The NOGGLE has multiple vents that allow you to adjust the direction and flow of the air, so you can customize it to your childs needs. Overall, I would highly recommend the NOGGLE Kids Personal Air Conditioning System to any parent looking for a way to keep their kids cool and comfortable in the car. Its a well-designed, high-quality product that really works, and its made our car rides so much more enjoyable for everyone.

> 24 hourI currently drive a Chevy Equinox that isnt equipped with cooling for the back-seat. My son is still rear-facing in his car-seat and in the Texas heat it is almost unbearable for him. What I love: The obvious easy/in-expensive solution for solving for no back-seat AC The fact it can easily detach and reattached to the air unit so a passenger can sit in the seat without climbing over it Color - black goes nicely in my car so it doesnt stick out crazy like a sore thumb What I would improve on: I wish instead of cloth, velcro loops for hanging there was clamps. Its a little tricky to get the perfect angel for air flow when its hanging Security to the vent - I wish the vent connecter would secure better to the vents. Currently it moves all over the place if hit Otherwise great product! Would highly recommend!

> 24 hourThe noggle is a genius concept! I have a Nissan Xterra and the backseat gets very hot for the passengers. I bought the 8 foot size and I would actually say, another foot would been nice. If you buy the 6 foot, you will not be able to run under the seat. I attached the noggle to the passenger front middle vent, and ran it under the seat and up along the back side of the passenger seat. Passengers can get in the front, or back, without kicking the noggle around. Now heres my product suggestions - The square and round covers dont completely cover the vent in the Xterra. The manufacturer should consider a design change to accommodate all vehicles. It still works, but there would be alot more air flow if the connector covered the entire entire vent. The second suggestion is that instead of the tube being corrugated and round, a flat noggle tube would be better to put under the seat and if you choose not to run under the seat, would be much less intrusive overall. The last suggestion would be an option for a split connector. If there was a split connector, you could split the noggle to be directed at both passengers (one on the left, one on the right). Even with the design flaws, it was still a good purchase and is helping to keep back seat passengers cooler.

> 24 hourI dont have ceiling vents in my car so I had to find a solution to getting air-flow to my daughters rear-facing carseat. No matter the brand or length you get theres still a significant drop in air flow by the time it makes it through the tube. Set-up is a pain because you have to zip-tie the frame to the air vent. It may have been easier with a different color zip-tie or a different color vent, but with black on black and smaller vent opening, I was struggling to not only see the zip-tie but also to actually get my fingers in there to grab it. Unforunately, my vent is now broken because my husband shoved a suitcase slightly too hard and the zip-tie broke the vent blinds off.

> 24 hourThis thing is awesome is you really want to cool down the babies car seat. We tried a vented car seat pad, hah, we actually tried two and they were both way to small for American sized rear facing car seats with little to no air blowing. The 8 ft Noggle was perfect for getting cool air directly to the babies car seat. The flange attachment to the vent takes a little figuring out.

> 24 hourIf you dont have air vents in your back seats you must get this! It was a bit challenging to initially get the one part connected to the vent but once that is done with the zip ties- its easy to disconnect and reconnect. My son loved this in my old car. My only regret, not getting it sooner. Its the best!

> 24 hourI have a cargo van that has turned into a wheelchair accessible van so it does not have AC in the back. My daughter is 23 years old and in the hot Florida sun so it’s hot inside. I talked to a wheelchair company that would put an AC unit in the back of my van it was about $1200. So when I saw this I had to give it a try and it did exactly what it said it was going to do. So easy to install it’s a no-brainer. I usually have no one riding in the passenger front seat but when I have it’s so easy to detach and to reattach .
