Weve had the product for about a week and it looks like it is designed to last.
Background: we ordered a different umbrella prior to this and it never arrived. We bit the bullet and decided to go with a more expensive model. Im guessing that the extra cost was worth it based on the quality.
Out of the box the product arrives basically assembled and you only need to assemble the stand and put the umbrella in the stand. No weights are included for the feet, so it is necessary to purchase those separately. We bought 4 square (18) garden stones from Home Depot and those worked perfectly as weights.
The umbrella is super easy to slide up and down (tilt) and has a crank to open it and another crank go swing it from side to side. Both cranks are very easy to operate.
The umbrella itself is very big. Easily enough to cover 4/6 chairs around our fire pit. Because its big, it can catch some wind, so I wouldnt open it if its windy. I cant comment on the durability of the fabric, but it looks very good (high quality). The main post and other hardware is also high quality. We hope to have this for years
High Quality, easy setup
