Consider this umbrella as a short term investment. Bought 2. Loved the tropical feel they gave my pool however I’m only providing 3 stars because they don’t last. The plastic used to create the fringed palm eroded with the breezes and within 3 months…and the fringe scattered everywhere like hay, including into my pool. They are too heavy to tilt on the cantilever — broke the pole the first time. Be sure to use straight only up as shown in the manufacture’s pic . At the end of the summer both umbrellas went into the trash.
