I love the color! This umbrella is good. I really wish they would not make all umbrellas tiltable, we have high winds and because of that the mechanism as well as the string to crank is not very durable. Most umbrellas are made the same though. We maybe need commercial umbrellas at our house because of our winds. All in all is is very comparable to most that you would purchase anywhere else. We usually have to but new umbrellas for our pool area every year.
