It’s a fine patio umbrella, but the quality isn’t as nice as I was hoping it’d be. The fabric is cheaper-looking and the mechanics aren’t as sturdy as the other patio umbrella I have (which has more of a high-end canvas or sail cloth material look). I plan to keep it to use for parties, placing it in the yard over some Adirondack chairs, away from the other patio umbrella so that the comparison isn’t as drastic.
