“Tadpole Paisley” eCoddle Versa

Description

There is nothing else like the eCoddle — the 100% natural e-device holder. It was invented by an environmentally sensitive woman, Gayla Groom, who searched far and wide but could not find a non-toxic way to comfortably use her e-devices while working at her desk, or eating lunch, or reading in bed.

She created eCoddles to elegantly solve the problem. eCoddles are great at holding e-readers and smartphones — while being all-natural, user-friendly, Earth-friendly, sensory-friendly, and beautiful! The unique patent-pending design is simple yet ingenious.

The eCoddle Versa

The eCoddle Versa is like a heftier eCoddle Classic (“a plump little cotton and buckwheat confection of magically complementary width, height, and weight”), but instead of having permanently sewn corners, the configuration is left up to you — you’ll have four twill tape strings (one on each corner). You can tie the Versa into portrait or landscape mode, loosely or tightly, creating a variety of scenarios. You can make a comfy couch and invite a couple of e-devices to hang out. Try tying only one side for an expansive and cavalier experience.

With the help of the four loops (one on each side) you can truss the eCoddle or even hang it (in which case, consider securing your device with a piece of hemp twine). The eCoddle Versa is always up for you getting in touch with your natural genius and affinity for innovation. See our Versa demo video.

100% Natural

eCoddle Versas are made from natural-fiber fabrics, 100% cotton thread, sustainably grown buckwheat hulls, and 100% cotton twill tape strings, loops, and label. That’s it. We are careful to use 0% plastic or synthetics, and to make sure every step of sourcing, production, and distribution creates eCoddles you can welcome with open arms. Some of our fabrics are organic or OEKO-TEX-certified, and all of them are approved by our chemically sensitive founder as something she would welcome into her life.

Effective

eCoddle Versas securely hold most e-readers and phones, and some tablets, while you’re using them and while they’re resting — offering naturally responsive, ergonomic support for Kindles, iPhones, and other e-devices. They are a superb, soft device holder for readers, and a game-changer for reading in bed. The Versa’s landscape capability and its strings and loops extend its effectiveness in tune with your creativity.

eCoddles hold your devices just where you want them. They accommodate themselves to your touch, shifting their buckwheat obligingly. They seem to know just what to do — it’s like they have a physics degree! Three-dimensional angles — however rakish — and rough terrain are their specialties.

User-Friendly

An eCoddle is a pleasure to use, especially since you know it’s completely non-toxic. Just grab it by a seam and plop it down and then put your device in the groove. A solid base and a groove and protective lip form naturally. If you want to adjust the position, just give the eCoddle a nudge and a poke. Using an eCoddle can reconnect you to your ancestral roots, when the things we used in our daily lives were closely connected with the physical world. And it’s fun to carry around by its joined-corner handles. Also fun to play with.

The Versa brings extra versatility to the original eCoddle Classic. It lets you loosen and tighten the tension, change orientations, and just generally arrange everything to your needs and satisfaction. It has a bit more weight than the Classic so it can support devices well even in landscape mode (if they’re not too big and tall), and there’s enough room for a couple of devices to hang out side by side. See our Versa demo video.

Sensory-Friendly

eCoddles are friendly and soft. No rough edges. Nothing cold or hard. Despite the “ah”s in the eCoddle Classic demo video, eCoddles are actually very quiet. The only sounds you’ll hear are an occasional soft sigh of buckwheat hulls contentedly nestling against each other. What a wonderful companion for reading on a rainy day. We’re careful about not using fragrances, too. People are sensitive to a wide range of things these days — increasingly so — but if you value serene, non-toxic living, your odds of being happy with an eCoddle are super-high compared to any other e-device holder you could find.

Earth-Friendly

eCoddles (and their packaging) are 100% natural and 100% recyclable and plastic-free. eCoddle LLC’s founder has a long history of working with ecovillages, and her consciousness of the respect we owe to the Earth infuses every decision we make. eCoddles are low impact, low waste, and long-lasting, supporting sustainable, nature-centered living. They are uniquely qualified to be a part of every eco-conscious lifestyle.

Beautiful

eCoddles come in ever-changing designs, created from the world’s most beautiful all-natural fabrics, including rare and designer prints. They can be made of one fabric, or they can be made of two different fabrics. They are easily reversible — you can feature one fabric or the other as you prefer. Our upcoming Mix and Match Generator will take these capabilities to the max. The potential for beauty, art, and deep satisfaction is mind-blowing!

A lot of people find that eCoddles have personalities. They’re like little creatures born from the choice of fabric and style, and when they get owners they develop further, in tune with the person whose devices they hold. So it’s been said!

Ethical

At eCoddle LLC we believe that our products — and the way we run our company — should make the world a better place. Ethical is of the essence. We don’t want to bring junk into the world, nor anything that doesn’t justify its existence. We want to bring authentic value and pleasure. We want our product to have a light footprint and a big impact. It’s important that what we make doesn’t harm the Earth but instead promotes Earth-friendly practices. It’s important that it doesn’t harm the user but instead helps them, and that it doesn’t victimize workers but instead provides them with good livelihoods they enjoy.
