This umbrella turned out to be bigger than I anticipated. It was super easy to build, instructions were very clear. I did need help to attach the umbrella to the bottom stand but overall, it took about 40 minutes to put together. I had to hold it down with some weights due to my yard not being level but the umbrella is heavy duty.

Wow, this umbrella is huge and heavy duty! Love, Love, Love! Umbrella has hand crank that lets the umbrella up and down with ease. There is a handle on the pole that allows you to adjust the height of the umbrella. Again, handle moves with ease. Bottom of stand has a lever that allows you to rotate the umbrella in any direction. This umbrella is the most functional umbrella that I have ever seen. All pieces are super easy to operate. Umbrella needs a heavy duty weighted stand or else it will have to be bolted to a strong foundation. Highly, Highly Recommend!

So perfect for our outdoor area. We placed this umbrella at the end of our pool to help with shade. It was easy to assemble and the blue color is so pretty. It did not come with the base so we added our own and it appears to be sturdy. I may add more weight to the base because the umbrella is pretty heavy. Love the addition to our pool area.

This is a very heavy and very large Cantilever Umbrella. It's perfect for covering an open side area of my patio where I have a lot of potted plants boiling in the Arizona sun. You have to have two people to put this together ! It does not come with a base which is stated . I had to get very creative to mount this on flat ground. The umbrella is very well made and super adjustable. I does what I wanted it for and I now that it is up I can move it easily to follow the sun.
