Sunnyglade 10x13Ft Cantilever Patio Umbrella Rectangular Deluxe Offset 360°Rotation & Integrated Tilting System Hanging Umbrella for Market Garden Deck Pool Backyard Patio (Tan)

This product is well worth the money. It was spendy for me, but it has been a real life saver in keeping my house cooler during the hot summer months. I do take down the umbrella and store it during the winter to help it to last longer. Having said that, the material is high quality. It's easy to open and use. I'd definitely recommend this product.

I have had this for a few years now. In our hot sun the color is still great . Works still like new . You do have to weight it down pretty heavily in our winds

Have a 12x16 foot deck out the back doorwall (that's Michigan-speak for sliding glass door). I was looking for a way to cover the whole thing during hot summer days, since I had just invested in new patio furniture. Most retail cantilever umbrellas are more expensive than a cheap gazebo, but when I found this at a much more reasonable price at Amazon, I thought I'd try it.The umbrella comes with instructions that aren't the clearest. If you're like me, you'll scratch your head wondering "which direction do I put this?" etc. You'll attach something, then 2 minutes later realize you have to unfasten it and turn it around to face the other direction. That said, I never had any issue with bolts or holes being misaligned - when I finally realized how everything went together, it went together nicely. I did have the help of another person, holding the base, etc.When finally assembled, the umbrella was MASSIVE, and nearly covered my deck. I was so happy. But, because you have to assemble the extension ribs, you have to assemble the umbrella half-open. Eventually, when I was done sitting in my patio shade, basking in the glory of the comfort from the sun, I stood up and started to close the umbrella. It was then I realized my mistake. This would not work for me.You see, the umbrella wouldn't close. The long-side (13-foot) ribs would catch on the furniture, or the railing of the deck. It was just too big. When you close it, you have to lower the cantilever, otherwise the canopy actually catches on the lever. And if I lower it, then it's low enough to catch like I mentioned. So here I was, with this horrible dilemma - keep something for which I paid a lot of money, having to walk around and manipulate the ribs every time I closed it, pulling them around furniture and around the railing, etc., or return it. I chose the latter.My advice to other buyers - make sure you don't plan to have anything that will sit reasonably close to the umbrella, or under it, lest you'll be in the same boat. The point that it was catching on my furniture was on the arms, not the backs of the furniture. A knee-height coffee table would be fine.I'm sad I had to return it. It felt sturdy, the material was decent, and it gave a lot of shade. I just wish there was some way to retract the long-side (13-foot) ribs as it closes. The same manufacturer sells a 10x10 footer on Amazon, which would have no problem in the same location on my deck. I plan to consider that.

I barely write reviews, especially years later however, this was such a great product I had to come back and let people know. I live in the suburban Windy City of Chicago and this umbrella is now going on It’s fourth year. The color is still vibrant red, no leaks and I’m purchasing a second one because of the great quality for another area in my yard. The umbrella has been outside since purchased but covered with an umbrella cover when not in use and during the winter months. I have used this umbrella a ton and have had some really questionable wind. I did purchase the water filled weights. You must keep them full with water in order for them to support the umbrella weight- Refill every few months. I do need to replace them after being outside 7/24/365 for the last four years as there are some small holes that leak if it’s not full. Great umbrella and reasonable price! Buy it!!!

This is a wonderful umbrella, unless it gets a rip in the canopy. Then what? You have a well-built skeleton of metal, and no replacement canopy exists from this company. Why wouldn't you offer a replacement? Don't buy it. Find a company that offers replacement canopies before you buy a monsterous umbrella like this.

Love this umbrella.Once you get used to how it works, you'll find it's super flexible for different angles and positions. It is sturdy yet bends in the wind to avoid breaking. I mistakenly left it wide open when a strong wind storm hit. Even though the wind blew it out if the base and onto the ground, hitting the pergola on the way down, there was no damage to the arms or fabric because of the way the arms bent with the wind and fall.Fantastic product engineering. Genius design for moving up, down, spreading out, as well as securing in the base.It covers a pretty wide area when up full. I invested in several cans of Scotchgard to waterproof it - you'll need six+ 42 ounce cans to cover it well; I just did the top, not the underside. Good enough I think.It's easy to assemble, although the directions are pretty lacking; typical for these kinds of products. If you are used to assembling this kind of stuff and use common sense, you'll have it together in under 1/2 hour. You'll need two people when it comes to inserting the main pole into the base; it's heavy and needs to be guided in, so one person lifts and the other guides. The rest can be done by one person.I'm also adding a shout out to their customer service. When it arrived it was missing the base piece that holds the center pole. I was pretty miffed as I had already taken everything out of the box and did not want to send it back. I went through Amazon vendor contact, explained, sent pictures and asked that they send me the missing piece. They are in China. They sent another complete umbrella that arrived a few days later, no charge (!). Now I have a 100% backup if anything breaks, and if not, a total 2nd umbrella free. Not bad!Can't beat it for the price (plus base and Scotchgard). If you're hesitating, don't - great product. And be sure to buy the base, which you simply fill up with water for the weight, which is enough to secure it unless you leave it open in high winds like I did. Don't skimp on the base - oher umbrella bases will not work.
