Quite possibly the best umbrella I have ever owned. After watching so many overpriced aluminum market umbrellas get destroyed by wind, this one is extra strong and durable. I highly recommend this unit for the quality and price.

Guess I am more frustrated at myself that I didn't see that the umbrella base wasn't included. But what good is the umbrella without a base? Dig a hole to shove the umbrella into - that doesn't really make sense. Quality of product was fine.

I highly recommend this umbrella! The SPF is very high, completely blocking out UV rays even in the sweltering summer heat. The fabric feels sturdy and hasn't faded at all in this season. It looks like great quality, and the style is perfect for the pool. I love it.
