Sunnyglade 9' Patio Umbrella Outdoor Table Umbrella with 8 Sturdy Ribs (Beige)

This Umbrella has held up well. It’s retained it’s dark green color, and is easy to open and close.

I have purchased three of these. The first is over a year old and I recently purchased 2 more.SETUP: They can be assembled in seconds. Just insert one pipe into the other until the locking pin clicks.USE: They are very easy to raise, lower, tilt, and tie up. There is a crank that opens and closes the umbrella. It is connected to a small rope that runs up through the pole to a pully that then pulls the umbrella mechanism up or down. I'm sure there is a limited lifespan on that cord, but after a year, mine looks fine. You can tilt the umbrella when it is open by push a button. It has 3 angles that it can lock in at. Some other umbrellas can hit any angle you want, but I never need that precise of an angle. The umbrella has ties so that when closed, you can tie it shut to avoid wind blowing up into it. Finally, the umbrellas has the double umbrellas on top to allow wind to blow out when you get a stronger gust. It works pretty well. My 35lb base works for most wind. I haven't tried it in strong winds, but you would need at least 50lb base to even attempt.QUALITY: It's not built like a $300+ umbrella, but it looks nice, holds it's color after a year in the sun, and seems like it will last for 3-5 years which is pretty standard for even expensive umbrellas. at 1/6 the price, these are a much better option.

Very prompt delivery. The mechanism seems adequate and easy to use. Fabric is not heavy canvas, but a lighter polyester synthetic. Only time will tell if it can stand up to the SoCal sun. Because of inadequate packing protection, the plastic cap on the top of the umbrella was cracked in transit, but this should not be a problem in actual use (Amazon or manufacturer needs to cushion the cap for transit).

We just reordered this same umbrella after our previous one started looking rough after 6 years. We have the beige one so fading was never an issue, but we left it open during a storm, causing an arm to bend after the wind pulled the umbrella out of the stand and threw it off the deck. Then we left it out all last year, including winter, to find the umbrella wearing thin in several spots and ripped in one. The crank and tilt still work great, though. If you don't neglect your umbrella like we did it can easily last 10+ years.

I've been buying this exact umbrella from Amazon for years. They only last about 2 years on my deck, and then the UV fade makes them look sad, so I just buy another. Mechanically they are well made, and the overall quality is great. For the price Amazon charges I think they are a great value. Recommended.

First and foremost, let's talk about the appearance. The orange color is absolutely phenomenal! It adds a vibrant and eye-catching touch to my outdoor space, instantly brightening up the patio and making it feel like a lively oasis. The quality of the fabric and construction is evident, giving it a premium look and feel that complements any outdoor setting beautifully.Furthermore, I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly the umbrella arrived after placing my order. The rapid shipping provided by the seller ensured that I didn't have to wait long to start enjoying the benefits of this fantastic addition to my patio.In terms of functionality, the umbrella is top-notch. It provides ample shade and protection from the sun, allowing me to relax outdoors comfortably even on the hottest days. The sturdy construction and easy-to-use design make it a breeze to set up and adjust as needed.Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase. This orange patio umbrella not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of my outdoor space but also provides practical sun protection and comfort. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to elevate their outdoor experience with style and convenience!

great umbrella, easy to setup and use

Top plastic crown cracked. Not sure why, wind maybe? So will have to try to fix since it does hold the fabric in place.
