My place is pretty windy. It holds up fine 70 of the time. When the wind is strong, the umbrella still swing left and right.
In case you wonder, there is no 360 rotation for this square umbrella.
The biggest problem of this umbrella is the height. First, it tilts downwards from the side of the base to the other end. The shortest height is on the edge of the umbrella which is around 6ft. Once you stepped inside towards the center, it gradually trend higher, but still under 7ft. To people who are tall, it is not comfortable.
It is relatively easy to put together if you are strong enough to lift the umbrella. Otherwise, two people is better for the job.
If you buy this with the base, it is 1k. It is overpriced to me given the height issue. If the total package is 600 to 700, I think it is fair.
Try to see if there is a better choice before you go with this one. We had no choice because of the side requirement in our home.
Beaware of the height
