Love this umbrella base. I added two sandbags contents to add extra weight - as it was designed. We have had several windy storms come through, but the 11 umbrella - closed but upright- has been solidly anchored by the base and been undamaged by the storms.

Good stand which by itself is heavy - the sand bag adds incremental assurance that your umbrella will fare well during relatively strong winds, easy to set up I do like the dual pinch wheels to even further secure umbrella

Great quality umbrella base! It’s very sturdy and looks like it will last for a long time.

If needing a heavy base to help with the sturdiness of your umbrella, this stand is perfect. It held around 100lbs. of sand and with the base weight of 50lbs. it handles any burst of wind.
