The awning is not really recommended in everyday use when the baby is bigger. The field of view is limited. It's really only recommended if the baby is still very small and is only and do not want to really look around. We use it not at all more - bad buy. In retrospect, I would still prefer to buy an umbrella. The awning One must also constantly slipping from left to right, depending on how the sun is. An umbrella you can think more easily adjust.
