This is a beautiful umbrella!!  I love that there are a variety of colors to pick ….I searched for a nice looking navy market umbrella for some time and happy I ordered this one. Assembly is simply opening the box, attaching the pole and placing it in the stand. Very awesome that there is a switch on the pole to turn the lights on and off. The lights are perfect and not too bright.  The crank works smoothly and it is easy to put in a tilt 
position.
