This umbrella is really nice and a great “bang for your buck!” I love how big and wide it is. I have larger family get togethers and I am happy this will be able to shade a lot of people. The solar powered lights are so gorgeous a night, but not too bright to attract mosquitoes-something my husband is deathly afraid of as he believes each and every mosquito on the planet carries west Nile and malaria-but that’s a topic for a different chat!

It’s perfect that it has an off/on button for the lights, so if you want to go incognito you can. The tilt feature is wonderful too. You can tilt the umbrella towards the family members you don’t like and now you don’t have to ignore them on purpose, now you really can make it seem like it’s by accident!

Overall, this umbrella has a lot of great uses- besides shading out the sun!
