I needed an umbrella that would fit into a port in my pool. The size is 1.5 inches in circumference. This looked like a well made attractive umbrella. The beige shade I chose was a very light, the fabric very thin. Upon attempting to assemble, the final at top would not fit into the pole. I inspected the top only to find the opening ajar, impossible to screw in. I contacted Mayfair that I wanted to return it, instead they're sending another SAME umbrella which is not what I wanted.Ridiculous.
