Very poor design. Crank not easily accessible with umbrella fabric reaching table level when closed. Balance point of weight distribution too high and as a result the umbrella rocks and creaks even in the most minimal winds of 5-8MPH. Tilt point of umbrella out of reach over even me as a 6’-2” guy and the umbrella tends to snap into an angled position on a stronger wind. Not a good product.

Beautiful umbrella!
