How to Install the M+ Stroller Mosquito Net

Quick Answer

Attach the M+ Stroller Mosquito Net by stretching the elastic hem over the stroller seat canopy and footrest area, then secure the bottom hooks to the frame for a snug fit.

Installation Steps

1. Prepare the Stroller: Park the stroller on a flat surface and engage the brake. Fully recline the seat if you plan to use the net with a sleeping child. Remove any toys or accessories that might snag the mesh. A common mistake is leaving the canopy partially open—close it fully so the net sits flush against the fabric.
2. Position the Net Over the Seat: Hold the net by the elastic hem and drape it over the top of the stroller canopy. Pull the mesh downward so it covers the entire seat opening, including the footrest area. Make sure the net’s seamed edge faces outward—the smoother side should be against the stroller fabric to avoid irritation.
3. Secure the Bottom Hooks: Locate the two small hooks sewn into the bottom hem of the net. Hook each one onto the stroller frame near the footrest hinge points. Tug gently to ensure both are firmly attached. If one hook pops off, the net will sag and create an entry point for insects. Double-check both hooks before moving on.
4. Adjust the Elastic Hem for a Snug Fit: Run your fingers along the elastic hem, smoothing out any wrinkles. The hem should sit just below the canopy edge and wrap around the seat sides without gaping. Avoid overstretching the elastic—it should grip the stroller fabric without pulling the canopy out of shape.
5. Perform a Final Check: Stand at the front of the stroller and look for any openings between the net and the stroller frame. Gently press the mesh near your child’s face to confirm there’s enough clearance for airflow. A properly installed net should feel snug but not tight against your child. If the mesh touches their face, adjust the canopy recline slightly.
