We got this umbrella and it was great. It seemed very sturdy and well made. However, after less than  a week of having it, it snapped in half when a light breeze came by when it was out. I was surprised that it couldn't withstand more wind and am hoping to get credit back from Wayfair. If you live in a place that doesn't get any wind, this will be a great item for you this summer. However, if you live where there is even a slight wind you would be better off getting something else.
