Nice, smart, well built umbrella so looking good so far, but this is only after 3 days. This item is actually a replacement for an umbrella that was just 6 weeks old but which had faded drastically in the sun. 

Excellent customer service process for getting a fast replacement, but jury is still out on whether this item is good value for money and displays the same level of performance as the last one. 

Star rating based on combination of bad initial product, good service & optimism.
