This fits on my back deck perfectly! It puts shade over the patio furniture, and my 92 year old mother in law can sit outside during the day without the sun roasting her. I have already spent a few evenings outside for a change under it, and it makes for a tranquil setting. I was worried that it wouldnt fit through the hole in my table, or in the stand, but it went without a hitch after I took the plastic grommets out.
