I wanted to love this umbrella. The wire ring that held one of the circular branch connections was broken. Did not know until we try to stand it up to put it on the pole and the branches just fell apart. Fortunately, Wayfair refunded immediately. The item is no longer in stock so I'll have to find another somewhere else :-( That wire was thin, and I hope they will improve that design in the future. Otherwise, it was a pretty navy blue and very classy looking.
