We love the size. The 10ft span allows us to generate tons of shade over our table and chairs. We ordered the orange/red color which gives us the pop of color we wanted to compliment our patio set which has muted neutrals. The material the umbrella is made from is a silky, shiny texture. The venting controls the amount of wind affecting the stability of the umbrella allowing the umbrella to stay put more so than our previous one which had to be stored when the wind kicked up. 
The umbrella fits nicely into our previously purchased umbrella stand. It is easy to open and close and the tilting mechanism 
allows us to redirect the amount of shade where we need it most.  We are excited to use this new addition to our backyard for years to come.
