Its a good umbrella, not great. The pieces that allow it to move up/down and open/close are plastic and feel flimsy, like the could break if you’re not really careful. So we tend to leave it open all the time which was not the original plan. Also it’s smaller than I thought - not able to properly cover our couch and chairs. But overall it provides good shade and looks nice. And I knew at this price point we weren’t getting a high-end umbrella. Also must buy separate base with weights for it to stand up
