I love this umbrella and stand. The stand is light weight but sturdy. I did purchase weights to hold the base down in the wind. The umbrella is easy to extend and put away. This provides great shade for the back of my home.

This is our first cantilever umbrella and we have decided we like it. The stand is behind us so we don’t have to worry about tripping on poles or looking around the pole. I do have concerns about the flimsy feet stand that supposedly going to hold this umbrella up and in place. It will definitely need attachment to the deck or ground….we will be placing a couple of sandbags on it to help it stand.

This is one of the best made umbrellas. It’s super large and easy to move into several positions. It comes with the hardware to hold it place. It’s nicely easy to rotate and withholds during the bad weather

The base has started to fall apart after one year and it leaning heavily. Not sure it will last much longer.

Umbrella is a perfect fit for my patio and stores well. I gave it 4 stars only because I ordered the navy blue color and it’s not that dark blue as expected. Overall a very good buy!
