I love the look of the umbrella and it holds up well so far in a windy location (it’s been about 2 months). My only complaint is the auto tilt. You’re supposed to be able to keep cranking the handle in order for it to tilt, but it doesn’t seem to lock in place so just “uncranks” itself and there is no tilt. Kind of a bummer because we need it desperately to block out the sun from one direction during dinner.
