The umbrella seems to be well made and the fabric looks heavy. My big concern is whether or not it will fade. Time will tell. The reason that I only gave it 3 stars is because there was a small round burn mark in the fabric. Looks like a cigarette burn. Trying to decide whether or not to return or try to patch it with a small piece of fabric as one of the ribs of the umbrella covers it when the umbrella is open.
