March 2022 update: Customer service is aming. Umbrella has withstood wind, ran, and sun. This is the first piece of outdoor furniture that Ive been impressed with.
Great looking, high quality, sturdy umbrella. This has really extended the use of our patio. This isnt a cheap big/box store umbrella. The 360 rotation and tilting means you can control where the shade lands: During the high noon sun we leave it horizontal (flat). When the sun is lower on the horizon we tilt it vertically. It handles light breezy days but at 11 wide it can act as a sail so be extra careful when its tilted completely vertical. We added four bags of sand for extra weight and place a rubber mat under the base so it wouldnt slide on our smooth concrete patio. This is not cheap, especially after adding the base (not included). But its very nice and the manufacturer immediately addressed an issue I had and they also followed up.
Not your big box umbrella / 100 Worth it
