I’m totally thrilled with this! I spent a few hours researching the best size, materials, and price for it and was even hesitant that something hundreds of dollars less than market price would be of good quality. I read the reviews and knew that if it wasn’t right, I could easily return it. No Way!!! it’s perfect!!! It has totally transformed our back yard, providing shade from the midday sun and heat to my flowers, dog and my family. It also keeps the back of the house cooler... added bonus! And the bright red adds real flare in contrast to the sky and pool. I would not that due to the size of the umbrella, 11ft, the fabric almost touches our patio dining table when it is lowered and the crank is hidden within. Not a big worry but a bit challenging as the table has to be cleared off to open or lower it so the fabric doesn’t knock things over.

I absolutely recommend this product...without hesitation!
