We love this umbrella!  The pivot 360 is very convenient as well as the 5 set points for angling.  It makes it very easy to use this umbrella during the entire day.  The color (sea green) compliments our new deck very well.  The only warning I would give is this:  I am not very good at judging size, width, etc.  The 11 X 11 covers quite a bit of our 20 X 12 porch, so if you do not want that much coverage, a smaller size would work well.
