Bought several of these umbrella for a commercial property. They look gorgeous but don't function well. The wood pole connection in the center is flimsy and causes the umbrella to bend and not stand straight which causes the pole to eventually snap. They are very heavy since they are wooden which makes the  the pulley system used to pull the umbrella ribs up very difficult. I replaced these umbrellas with others made by the same manufacturer (California Umbrella). Their 9' Olefin Round Umbrella have poles made of commercial grade aluminum frame and fiberglass rib framework and I have been extremely impressed with their performance. 

Pros: Look Great but don't function well. 
Cons: Wooden frame is heavy and does not fit well together
