This umbrella is exactly what is advertised.  I looked all over and could not find a cheaper ($) one.  There are some things about it (it only tilts in one direction, a little hard to reach the crank for shorter people), BUT, for the price you get what you pay for.  If I wanted something that tilted in every direction and was easier to use, I'd have to have paid at least $300.  I'm very happy with what I got for the price.
