I bought it to replace an older cantilever umbrella. I love this umbrella! It is larger than I thought but that is a good thing! The quality is top notch.  I casts a great shadow near the edge of the pool for the not so sun loving people (also a great place to keep the cell phones out of the sun). I was amazed how fast it arrived!  This was my first order with Wayfair and will not be my last!!
