Beachshadow was first launched into the beach shelter and beach shade market in June 2007 in the United Kingdom. It was featured in the Sunday Times Good Gear Guide in August 2007. Here is some of the feedback we've received since launching the product. Click here to see the protection quality of the Beachshadow fabric. "Well the feedback is - well just - Fab! We really loved it and it provided us with such piece of mind as it was our first foreign holiday with our first and only child (so you can imagine I was a little nervous). Ellie is only 18 months old so I was worried about her being exposed to harmful rays, getting burnt etc." Karen, mother of 18 month old Ellie. "Having had problems with skin cancer for the past 4 years it has been absolutely fantastic for me as I travel in hot climates regularly and it goes in my bag everywhere I go. I recommend Beachshadow to all my friends. The shade it gives in glaring sun is phenomenal; anyone who has not been under a Beachshadow and experienced how cool it is would not believe it." Grant T, Derbyshire (Mature Traveller!)
"The shade it provided was excellent and it was easy to put up. We were able to spend all day on the beach without worrying about our little boy who is 15 months." Amanda, childminder and mother of three.
"We are just back from 7 weeks on Portugal's west coast - very windy and extremely sunny and hot. The Beachshadow was a great success! Easy to put up (ignore the curious stares) and fun to use." Martin G, Surrey "Have you ever heard of beach envy? It worked fantastically well - we were very cool under it despite the heatwave in Greece when they were suffering from the fires. With two redheads in our family we can't take any risks - so thank you it was superb and I don't know what we would have done without it." Gill, Middlesex "Just returned from Melbourne and wanted to report our Beachshadow was a success on its first outing. We found it very simple to erect and had no problems. There is certainly nothing like it on the beaches there and we would have loved to have approached families with little babies in flimsy tents, probably not being protected much at all." Jen and Roy, Happy UK customers visiting their daughter in Melbourne "Very effective sun screening, elegantly simple loop tensioner system on top of the ground peg." M Neilsen, "a satisfied user" 
| Sheila on holiday in Maspalomas, Canary Islands "The Beachshadow was fantastic, particularly near the dunes of Maspalomas, where there are no umbrellas. Simple, light and practical." |
| Fiona on holiday near Dubrovnik, Croatia "We used it on the pebble stones and shingle in Croatia where it was 32 degrees. We used the hard ground pegs and once secured it worked a treat. It took the heat out of the strong sun and with the sea breeze it enabled us to stay out all day." |
| Andrew on holiday in Nevis, Carribean "The beachshadow was certainly useful and caused quite a stir amongst the locals. Most of the time there were quite strong winds. I was never able to use the roof frame.... with a little practice it worked perfectly with either 2 poles or 2 long & 2 short. I can certainly testify to the quality of the product. Many thanks for an excellent product... next stop Malta next year!" |
