Best Choice Products 10x10ft Cantilever Patio Umbrella w/Base Included, Solar LED Lights 360 Rotation Large Offset Hanging Outdoor Shade for Deck Pool Backyard w/Stand – Navy Blue

My wife and I have and 12x20 stone patio that gets full direct sunlight from 10am-5pm. We considered getting a sunsetter awning ($4-5k) or doing a DIY shade sail (but wouldn’t have enough mounting points). Ultimately we discovered and settled on this umbrella and we’re so glad we did!Its very sturdy and easy to assemble. The canopy material is high quality and durable and I really appreciate the design of the 4 piece base which makes it really easy to fill and even move around if needed. Color was accurate. The value for the money is just unbeatable. It can get pretty windy here and so far its stood up well to the elements, but you definitely need to be mindful of the wind and close it if its getting too windy.Everyone is impressed with how incredibly easy it is to open and close (takes just a few seconds). Even though our patio is 12x20, this 10x10 umbrella provides sufficient shade and in the afternoon the entire patio is actually shaded! The solar powered lights work nicely in the dark. Not too bright, but certainly enough to see yourself and others in the dark.I highly recommend this product if you need an affordable shade solution!

We were over having to take down our gazebo for every hurricane. It was grueling & exhausting each take down. So after researching so many other options & tons of cantilever umbrellas out there, we chose this seller/product & we are so happy we did. Their price was beyond comparison & included all, base, cover, cool lights & a real vented top.We opened our package immediately to check for damages/missing parts…all was great! We then sprayed the umbrella canvas with scotch-guard & let it dry.You definitely need 2 people to get it all put up but it was quick and easy! Lights were already on & working BUT the center light…wt? It does not at all screw in nor stay in place. This was the only defect. We did use double-sided tape so let’s so if that holds up! When getting the umbrella all setup/opened, it down-poured but no rain seeped thru the umbrella so not sure if that’s because of the waterproofing or if it would’ve done that anyways (umbrella material is thick, not cheap material).This umbrella & all its parts are built extremely well & sturdy! The base is massive & awesome. We filled it up with water, then put 4 sandbags on top the base that we had leftover from Hurricane Milton. Also, we purchased straps to secure the umbrella to the pole (another seller’s product found) & this umbrella stays put, no swaying, not much movement at all (we had 20 mph winds with 25 mph gusts). For even more stability, we got a second set of straps to hook onto the opposite side of the umbrella - perfect!If pondering, do not anymore….choose this one! My review is not part of any promotion, it is a sincere review from what we experienced and it’s only to help others out there!

Fantastic umbrella, all around. Super sturdy and easy to move. Just ordered our second! The 1st is still perfect, we just needed more shade. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I am done with those cheap 60-100 umbrellas (plus the stand).This is the one you want and worth every penny.

The instructions for setting up are excellent until the insertion into the base. That part could have been clearer. The umbrella works well mechanically. It is easy to raise and lower, so the design is very good. The canvass rocks back and forth in a slight breeze and the base, filled with water, unexpectedly lifted up in a strong wind. I recommend lowering and strapping the umbrella when not in use and do not use unless it is perfectly calm.

I was looking for an umbrella that can withstand the high wind area I live in-gusts that come out of nowhere. This umbrellas is well suited for this-it has a floating arm that moves with the wind making it less likely to break. Very sturdy compared to our old one that kept falling down. The span of this is 10 feet for some good coverage. Another nice feature is the cover to keep it clean when not in use is well designed with a pole to cover the highest section-really smart design. The only complaints I have are the base is huge! But that is required if you want it to be sturdy. It just is a bit of an eyesore. The solar lights are good but not very bright-basically just for esthetics and not to really light up a place. Overall-love it so far.

If you're going to put this in a place that will be subject to ANYTHING OVER 5 MPH (using water in the supplied 'weight' tanks') it will blow right over. This is what happened to me. We installed this on a day that produced max winds of 5-10 mph, which can be verified through places like NOAA. Highest recorded winds that day were 11 mph at 3:00 PM. My awning blew over well before 3:00 PM in about 4-5 mph. In doing so, it bent the heck out of the awning support system parts. Parts that are not easily repaired. It also allowed me to investigate the actual construction on the awning. All I can say is, IT'S VERY CHEAPLY MADE. Now moving on. The the crossbrace at the bottom to support it is standard black painted steel. I put this on my brand new dock July 4th, and having looked at it today there are big rust stains all over my new PVC dock. I don't think I have to tell you how unhappy I am with that. Now there are some nice things about it. The canvas, although not Sunbrella, looks like it would hold up for a year or two outside in the weather. The lights are nice, but I never got to test them at night to see how long they last. They do supply you with a cover and a 5 foot long fiberglass pole to reach the top of the awing to help with installing the protective cover while not in use. It tilts and swivels around to aid in getting the thing in a good position while using wherever you have it installed. And they have a nice selection of colors. So that's my $0.02 evaluation. Buyer beware.

Great product. Good quality. Easy to assemble.

So beautiful so large so sturdy!!!!! Glad I chose another item from this brand. Never disappoints would def recommend!
