It's heavy and seems to hold my umbrella. When you tighten the screw holding the pole, it leaves a gap (see photo). I worry about water getting in here and rusting. note: If you don't tighten it enough and grab it by the umbrella, the pole can slip out. I learned the hard way when the stand landed on my foot.

Perfect exactly what I need and bought the red umbrella too and loving it

We bought this base in April 2026, we had a slight gust of wind, and the umbrella became detached, lifted and shattered our glass table into 1 million pieces. We have regularly checked the base to make sure that it was secure but it still came apart. Personally, I would not recommend this product.

This base is beautiful. Heavy to hold any umbrella. A must have.

very strong hold for umbrella.
