Great Summer Idea: The Shade Wagon!

It seems like we are always hauling “stuff” on our family outings. Yesterday, for example, one of my sons was participating in a swim meet out of town. All the families set up little “camping areas” in the grass by the pool to help make a long day in the sun as pleasant as possible. So, we hauled three chairs, a cooler, a duffle bag, extra towels, and much more to our little plot of land. It was a hassle! We go through the same thing whenever we go to the beach. Living in south Florida, we go quite frequently, and we’re always juggling the chairs, boogie boards, refreshments, towels, sand toys and everything else we need for several hours at the beach. Sometimes, we have to make several trips to the car. We don’t even take a beach umbrella because it never seems to stay upright in the sand. One day, somebody else’s umbrella blew across the beach and just barely missed hitting me! So, to be honest, I often dread going to the beach (even though I love it once I’m there) because it’s such a big production to haul everything there. But I saw a product the other day that would make family outings like this SO much easier! It’s called the Shade Wagon. This is what it does:


There are two types of Shade Wagons: the standard model and the Beach Buggy!

The Shade Wagon


Features of the Shade Wagon:

- Built-in handles for easy lifting
- Heavy-duty metal undercarriages with front and back wheel support rated for up to 800 lbs!
- Large, easy-grip handle that folds and latches under carriage for easy moving and storage
- Auto-steering
- Large pneumatic all-terrain tires
- Center consoles with cup holders open to create a storage place for your keys, wallet, cell phones, etc. Center console is also removable!
- 6.5-foot wind-vented beach umbrella: tiltable, SPF30, pole detaches into two parts for easy hauling, goes through the center console and acts as an anchor wherever you are and on any surface (concrete, asphalt, sand, grass, etc.)
- Side of wagon folds down to instantly give you a table surface
- Drop the table surface with the quick-release straps to convert wagon into two additional seats
- Comes in five stylish colors: Yellow, Fuchsia, Sky Blue, Deep Blue and Lime Green!

The Beach Buggy


The Shade Wagon Beach Buggy comes with all of the same fantastic features of the standard Shade Wagon, except that it is equipped with 4 Wheeleez® beach wheels! These unique, pliable, pneumatic tires will roll, even glide, over soft sand, turf and other challenging terrain. The tire’s low pressure permits rolling heavy loads over unstable/uneven ground with ease. These balloon wheels will not sink or plow into soft ground. They are great for use on delicate surfaces preventing indentations, as well as providing shock-absorbing qualities.

My family’s outings would be so much easier with a Shade Wagon! They are a bit of an investment, but they’re designed to last for years of family fun. Please visit www.theshadewagonstore.com to learn more and order your own Shade Wagon or Beach Buggy!
