Clearing your car off snow, frost and ice in this weather can be both time consuming and a nuisance – especially if you need to head to work.
Since it’s always safe to make sure your windscreen is clear when setting off on your journey, you can save some time by investing in a windscreen cover. If you don’t want to do some digging, we have spotted one Amazon users are currently raving over.
It’s this £18.99 AQhui Car Windscreen Cover that is said to “protect” against the winter weather conditions. Boasting hundreds of five-star reviews and a 4.6 Amazon rating, this gadget is said to “save a lot of time” defrosting and de-icing your car.
The cover attaches to your windscreen using eight small built-in magnets. To help be more versatile, it measures 126x156cm, making it suitable for a wide range of cars sizes that also include SUV’s and minivans.
Crafted from four layers of aluminium foil, it is “strong enough” to withstand the likes of snow, frost and even strong winds. It’s also “sturdy” enough to keep your windscreen clear from damage that may be caused by heavy hail or falling tree pine needles.
Amazon users who have purchased the AQhui Magnetic Frost Protector have raved over it in glowing reviews, as they say that it is “perfect for the job” and is also “great over the winter period”.
One five-star review read: “Easy to put in place and saves time not having to scrape windscreen in the morning.”
Someone else who said it was “good quality” wrote: “These will be useful in the dark winter mornings to save spending time clearing frost/snow and also keep our cars cooler in the summer to prevent the harsh sun heating the car interior too much.
“The fact that they cover the wing mirrors is a bonus and actually helps keep it in place. Cannot fault this product at all actually. Perfect for the job.”

Another shopper added: “This car cover was great over the winter period. It was easy to put on & kept the window clear of snow & ice. Unlike other ones I’ve had in the past when the window still iced up. I would highly recommend.”
Someone else said: “It’s the best thing I have get, it’s saving a lot if time in the icy weather.”
Meanwhile, a three-star critique read: “The magnets didn’t grip that well on my car, but I understand why they’re not super strong. (Was windy). But magnets could do with more power perhaps. The build quality, packaging and fit is superb – so it maybe it’s me and my motor.”
