This patio umbrella is just as expected.  It seems like fairly sturdy construction with no obvious defects beyond a loose thread end or 2.  It’s got a tie-down which I always like to have, though it’s manual knotting vs velcro. I wonder if I’ll be “5-star happy” after it’s spent several months in the sun  Or will it fade like all the others  I tend to (unwillingly) think of them as single season items any more.
