Good for the price
This umbrella comes as advertised. It seems solidly built and assembly is easy. It is large and you will need some decent room on your patio/deck to make it work. I think some of the problems noted in negative comments have been fixed by adding support "wings" to the base tube and stronger parachute cord for the cable. I was amused by the negative comments that mentioned that the umbrella wasn't stable. This type of offset system MUST include weights on the legs or it will not stand up. The weights are clearly not included with the umbrella and there is a combo deal to by both together. Even with this additional cost the price of the total set up is VERY reasonable when you do some comparison shopping. Finally, if you can't take care of your purchase by lowering it when not in use, taking it in for the winter or buying a cover, or not raising it during hurricane winds, you probably deserve whatever happens to it. Take reasonable care of it and you'll be happy.

Get It
Wow, for the price this is great. It is much larger than I expected in person. I bought the matching base and filled it up with water and now feel like I am on a resort. I like that it tilts. It is pretty well made for the price, great material on the shade itself. The crank is a little flimsy feeling but it is not a bad tradeoff for the price. I feel like it will easily last a few seasons if you take care of it.

Nice looking, sturdy umbrella (base required) that met our needs!
After researching umbrella options, I decided on cantilever/stand-alone vs in-the-table so that we could move it around the patio as needed and because you can’t use a tablecloth easily with an in-the-table umbrella.I chose this one as it seems to be the cheapest on Amazon while still having several thousand 4-5 star reviews.Unless you go for the top tier $500 umbrellas, it seems like all the cantilevers need an additional base to weigh them down. I went with this sand base as it was about $27 vs. the water ones which start at $60.Gravipod Duo Direct Detachable Umbrella Base Weight Bags - Up to 100 lbs. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089SBZJNK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_drW1yHk8YAB8iI had also read a review that the water ones could be hard to fill up. Also, this sand one can hold a full bag of sand without having to pour it out and has handles to really easy to move.Unfortunately I had some problems with the umbrella, but they have been resolved. First, it came with 2 “left legs” for the base so they couldn’t click into each other. I called the seller and they sent me a new whole umbrella a few days later. The new one had a crack in a plastic piece on top of the canopy (which didn’t impact anything) but because I had the other umbrella, I mixed and matched pieces from the 2 sets. The metal feels sturdy, the cloth feels thick. There are a few plastic pieces which make it feel a little cheap but not enough to stop me from buying it again.The raising and tilting mechanism isn’t as straightforward as you’d think; it basically only has 1 position it locks in at each height level. Hard to explain, but in essence it doesn’t have as many angle options as I thought it would, but still enough to provide the shade we wanted.Very happy with final product and it held up well in a light wind on my first day. The canopy sways in the wind which is a little annoying but I think that’s intentional so it doesn’t tip over. The sand base didn’t move at all, so overall it felt secure.

Nice but not easy
The Umbrella is nice but does not rotate like we thought it would. it is NOT easy to raise and lower. feels a little flimsy but we love the minimal space it takes up. We love that the base is not 5 times bigger than the umbrella and did not take sand to hold it down. We put it on a deck and screwed it in. It provides great shade. It is huge and when not open takes up very small amount of space.

No need to shop around
I recently purchased this outdoor umbrella, and I couldn't be more pleased with my decision. Not only is it incredibly easy to put together, but it's also hands down the best deal I've found compared to other options on the market.Firstly, assembly was a breeze. The instructions were clear and straightforward, and all the necessary tools were included. Within minutes, I had the umbrella set up and ready to provide much-needed shade in my outdoor space. It's designed with user-friendliness in mind, making it accessible for anyone, regardless of their DIY skills.The umbrella itself is sturdy and well-made. The frame feels durable, and the fabric is high-quality, providing excellent UV protection. I particularly like the crank mechanism, which allows for smooth opening and closing without any hassle.In terms of value, this umbrella exceeds expectations. It's competitively priced compared to similar products, yet it doesn't compromise on quality. I've seen other umbrellas that cost significantly more but don't offer the same level of durability or ease of use.Beyond functionality, the design is attractive and complements my outdoor decor perfectly. Whether I'm enjoying a sunny day or seeking shelter from a passing shower, this umbrella has become an essential addition to my outdoor setup.Overall, I highly recommend this outdoor umbrella to anyone looking for a hassle-free solution to enhance their outdoor living space. It's easy to assemble, offers exceptional value for money, and delivers on both performance and style. It's truly a standout product that has made a positive difference in my enjoyment of my outdoor area.

Easy assembly and great coverage!
This umbrella assembly was fairly easy and straightforward, took about 15-20 minutes putting it together myself. Instead of buying the separate weights I used four 50lb sandbags on the base. This umbrella is large and seems pretty sturdy, I’ll update the review if my opinion should change after having it a while.Also, I have no clue what this extra metal piece is for (pictured). I’ve seen others also have this issue. If anyone figures it out, please put it in your review.

broke in less than one year
We bought this umbrella one year ago. Most of the time i do not use this umbrella. We have used it only for a few times This product has a cone shape that guides the umbrella into its position. The cone has come loose and come out of place each and every time. This causes the string to rub on a sharp edge and cuts the string. This is not a well made product since it is expensive and broke so easily. Now I have an umbrella screwed to the deck with no use. All buyers should be beware of the defect in this product and I would NOT BUY if I know that there is such a huge defect.

Good while it lasted; it just didn’t last.
This was a good looking umbrella that provided decent shade, but we only got one summer of use. Despite being covered with a custom made umbrella cover from early fall through late spring, the string that opens the umbrella rotted and snapped, and the winding mechanism rusted and broke. See attached photo. iTech Canada said, “ unfortunately, we cannot do anything in your case as the manufacturer's warranty for the umbrella is 90 days after the delivery date.” I’ve had far cheaper umbrellas that lasted many seasons. This one is not fit for purpose. It’s a nice looking piece of junk. I suggest finding another one.
