Looks exactly as pictured and the lights are a nice touch. However the structure of the stand is not very sturdy. The first day we assembled it the wind whipped the umbrella over and the upper section of pole came right out of the base even though it was locked. The base has no weight as well and must be bolted down to a deck or sandbags placed around it to stay in place. I dont recommend using it in a windy area because its easily flipped or sways back and forth.
