The 10x6.5 ft umbrella was just what I was looking for to fill in a gap between my new gazebo and back door. Perfect fit. Umbrella seems of good quality and easy to raise up and down. Does need a weighted base to hold the stand (as noted in the descriptions). Material is good, and beige nice lighter color - didn't want to darken the area, just block the sun.

Without a base, it is absolutely not wind resistant. Not sure if i missed the note, but you definitely need a separate base with this.

Large rectangular cantilever umbrella seems great and folds up nicely. Took less than 10 minutes to assemble with 2 people. One caveat - it does NOT come with weighted base. We purchased that separately to keep umbrella stable.

This umbrella is a pretty nice quality. It opens and closes smoothly. It was easy to install, the base bolts on and screws onto the deck. The charcoal color matches my patio furniture exactly which was a nice surprise. It's a rich color charcoal and hopefully will hold up nicely. The only downside was that the base doesnt rotate to allow it to move. Once mounted, its in a fixed position. Our last umbrella that this one replaced rotated which was a nice feature for our area, so we will miss that with this umbrella not having that feature.

The umbrella crank didn't stay when you cranked it, it rolled back around once you let go of it. The umbrella itself was not taunt enough when you try to fully extend it.
