Hard to fill completely but will a little effort and determination it was doable and it is solid. I love it and would buy it again if I get another umbrella. We have it paired with a huge umbrella.

Nice umbrella. Good size. Worth more than what I paid as I compared prices. Recommend buying weights for the base or anchoring the base to the floor. Any strong breeze takes it off balance and it falls.Recommend seller. Recommend product.

I bought these weighted bases and it was easy to fill with water and fit perfectly in place with the stand of the umbrella. I made sure these were the recommended ones when I bought the umbrella. I will be curious to see if these bases actually hold the umbrella in place as I do get gusts of wind from time to time. I love how it looks!

It was exactly what we needed. We have a large umbrella and it handles the weight well.

Love it ..... But this is the 2nd one I’ve owned the first one the cord broke and now the sliding support bracket broke
