The Primrose Kookaburra Woven Shade Sail is designed for individuals seeking maximum UV protection and shelter from the elements. Its key benefit is the ultra-tight, UPF50+ certified weave that blocks over 98% of harmful UV rays and offers waterproofing. A potential caveat for some users in very hot climates is the tighter weave, which minimizes airflow to enhance rain protection, potentially leading to warmer conditions underneath compared to more breathable fabrics.

The Kookaburra Woven Shade Sail has a UPF 50+ rating, independently tested to block over 98% of harmful UV rays.
Yes, the material is waterproof and designed to provide shelter from rain.
You can machine wash it at 40 degrees Celsius, or for spot cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water.
It is made of high-density polyester (160gsm) that is UV stabilized and rot-proof.
The D-rings are made of Grade 304 stainless steel, which is corrosion-resistant.
While it offers excellent UV protection, the tight weave designed for rain protection might reduce airflow. In extremely hot climates, it may feel warmer underneath than more breathable shade fabrics.
Yes, the product description indicates it comes with free rope for installation.
This specific model is 3 meters by 2 meters.
Increase tension on the ropes. Ensure all anchor points are secure and at the correct height. Consider using tensioning hardware like turnbuckles for a tighter fit.
Ensure the sail is installed with a slight slope or 'fall' in one direction to allow water to run off. Re-tension the sail to remove slack.
Clean the sail with a mild detergent and water, then rinse thoroughly. Ensure the sail is completely dry before re-installing or storing.
Check the stitching around the D-rings. If the issue persists and the sail is within warranty, contact the manufacturer. Ensure you are not over-tensioning to the point of stressing the D-rings.
Setup: To set up your shade sail, identify strong anchor points such as sturdy posts, existing structures, or trees. Use the provided rope and the stainless steel D rings at each corner to attach the sail. Ensure the sail is tensioned evenly across all sides to prevent sagging and maximize its effectiveness. Additional hardware like turnbuckles or carabiners may be purchased separately for more adjustable tensioning.
Compatibility: This shade sail is compatible with various attachment methods and hardware. Ensure any structures used for anchoring are sound and capable of bearing the tension. It is suitable for use over patios, decks, play areas, gardens, and driveways.
Care: The shade sail is machine washable at 40 degrees Celsius. For routine cleaning, a simple wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap is usually sufficient. Allow the sail to dry completely before storing it to prevent mildew. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
