This patio umbrella is perfect for my needs.  I purchased it for my patio and extra shade during garage sales.  It’s light weight and easy to move around but good quality.  I had purchased a base before it arrived and it fit it like a glove. It opens and closes with ease. The material is thick and provides the right amount of shade.  The style and striped pattern being character to my area.   Great purchase for an umbrella that I can move around the yard to where I need it.
