I received this item in exchange for a review from Wayfair. I was so excited to get this cantilever umbrella! It's just what we were looking for for a super sunny playground at the daycare I teach at. This thing is huge! It went up super easy and provides a wonderful amount of shade. It's so wonderful to have. The children and teachers alike are so happy to have the shade! We filled the base with sand and that is working well. We chose a light beige color with the thinking that the lighter color may feel cooler underneath than a darker one.

This is a huge umbrella that covers two chairs. Or it could go over a big table or pool for additional shade. It required two people to put together but maybe strong person could do it. Instructions made it easy

Massive, beautiful umbrella! This umbrella is such great quality. I didn't realize how much this umbrella would cover on my deck until I got it put together! It comes 2 poles to make the height and then the base come in a few simple parts. The base does require sand bags or we use cement bags. Don't try and start putting it together without the sand or cement because it will not stay up.

This 13 ft cantilevered navy umbrella is perfect for our pool and grill area. It was very easy to set up right out of the box, and the quality really stands out. The materials feel sturdy and well made, and it easily covers a large group of people or furniture with great shade. Can’t wait to add some twinkling lights for night!

This table umbrella arrived very soon after it was ordered. I always get great shipping from Wayfair. My problem was the back patio in the summer is so hot that you cannot sit on it. I was looking for a temporary measure until we buy a little gazebo. The umbrella is so big and we love it so much we may not get the gazebo. I love it and I can sit in the shade now with my doggies.
