The fabric seems durable and the color very vibrant. **UPDATE** have used a little less than a month and one of the rods snapped. I’m not sure if it’s a one off or if the metal is poorly made. I will say it did break at the joint, so it’s possible it was just weak from opening and closing. Thankfully wayfair is awesome and are assisting in replacing this piece. I still love this umbrella despite this incident, it’s large and provides a lot of shade in the California summer heat.
