As the warmer days approach, so does the sun.
The perfect time to take your child on a trip aboard their YOYO stroller.
But one thing threatens to spoil the fun: the sun and its UV rays on your child.
Fortunately, our favorite stroller brand has created an anti-UV parasol specifically for our sunny outings, the YOYO Special UV Protection Parasol.
But how effective is this sun protection for the stroller?
I own a sun protection parasol for my YOYO, specifically the Babyzen YOYO parasol.
A gift that proves to be very, very practical when the beautiful days arrive and during our sunny trips.
These good times will be rare with your baby.
So make sure everything goes well for your baby and yourself.
Here is my detailed opinion and my feedback on the YOYO parasol.
I hope it can help you.
Does the YOYO anti-UV parasol effectively protect from the sun ?
After several years of use, I have never had sunburns on my child during stroller rides.
Even in Greece and Italy in the middle of summer where it is sunny all day (unlike Brittany where I live).
With its UPF 50+ protection, which is the highest sun protection rating achieved and means that the YOYO parasol protects covered areas up to 97.5% against UV-A and UVB radiation.
It’s hard to do better in protection.
Parasol + Sunscreen in summer, the perfect combo for a serene stroll with your stroller and baby all day.
How to attach the YOYO Babyzen parasol ?
Yes, as you can read, we are indeed talking about attaching the parasol, that is, attaching it and not touching it anymore.
And thus, fully enjoy your stroll with your baby in the middle of summer.
Via an attachment, supplied with the parasol, it attaches very easily to the frame (chassis) of the YOYO stroller.
And this on all YOYO models:
- Newborn Pack 0+
- Bassinet Pack
- 6+ Pack
- And even the car seat
Once installed, all you have to do is tilt the parasol to protect your child from the sun and UV rays.
What colors are available for the YOYO parsol ?
There are 9 colors of YOYO stroller parasols.
- YOYO aqua parasol
- YOYO taupe parasol
- YOYO peppermint parasol
- YOYO black parasol
- YOYO toffee parasol
- YOYO Air France (navy blue) parasol
- YOYO ginger (pink) parasol
- YOYO stone (gray) parasol
- YOYO olive parasol
So one more color than the colors of the fabrics in the YOYO 6+ pack and/or the bassinet. Indeed, the color “peppermint” is not present in the YOYO 6+ pack and/or bassinet.
Be careful not to make a mistake if you want to match the parasol to the colors of your YOYO stroller.
And for your information, the most requested color is the YOYO aqua parasol. This is the one I personally use to match the fabric of my YOYO 6+ pack and my bassinet.
Is the YOYO parasol also a YOYO umbrella ?
The YOYO parasol is not an umbrella for your YOYO stroller.
So where can you find a YOYO umbrella ?
There is no Babyzen brand umbrella for your YOYO. This product is not yet marketed by the brand.
Ask yourself a question, do you use your parasol as an umbrella ?
And your parasol as a parasol in summer?
The answer is NO.
To protect baby from the sun, opt for the YOYO parasol.
To protect baby from the rain, opt for the YOYO stroller rain cover.
Where to find an parasol for the YOYO stroller ?
Well, I can only advise you to equip yourself with an anti-UV parasol for your YOYO stroller, especially to protect your baby during the sunny days.
Moreover, when they are small and therefore in the stroller, believe me, they hate having the slightest sun in their eyes.
With the YOYO parasol, protect your child from the sun and yourself from your baby’s cries when they have the sun in their eyes.
I recommend it 100%.
You can either choose an Official YOYO Babyzen parasol or a universal stroller parasol that will perfectly fit your YOYO.
