Yes, for safety reasons you must always use a parasol with a suitable base, regardless of whether it’s being used through a table/parasol hole or not. You can find the exact specifications for our parasols and bases in the products section of this website.
Please note that our Berrington 120cm tables will not permit the use of a parasol base due to the low design of their pedestals. In this instance only, it is safe to use a parasol without a base.
