This is a fun umbrella. I like the striped design. It opens and closes really smoothly. Lowering the umbrella is silent, but raising the umbrella is rather load. I'm used to patio umbrellas clicking up, but this one's a bit louder. The fabric seems very durable.

This umbrella has a sturdy metal build that feels durable. I appreciate the ability to angle the shade, allowing for customized coverage throughout the day. Adjusting it was simple which makes it even more convenient to use. Overall, it's a well-made, the sun doesn't penetrate at all!

We love the new umbrella! Our very old 12' umbrella finally failed after 20 years of service. I settled for the 10' version and with the auto tilt mechanism find it quite a suitable replacement at a reasonable price. It is also beautiful. Thanx Sam's store!

(1) The color was not as expected, but it is still attractive and works well for us. (2) It is relatively easy to open and close, as well as to tilt. (3) For the price, it's great. (4) BUT we have had this umbrella for just a few weeks and have used it just once when it was breezy but not windy, so we cannot address how well it will hold up. However, it seems to be well constructed and we don't anticipate any problems with it. We would recommend this umbrella to our friends.

"Shrinkflation" has hit these market umbrellas: the fabric is thinner, the pole is thinner, etc. if on sale, it's the only way to justify this purchase. We bought these from Sam's a few year ago, and they lasted several brutal Arizona seasons. Don't have much hope for these to last more than 1 year. Bring back the old market umbrellas!

I wouldn’t buy any other brand of umbrella for a dining outdoor table. I have been buying Members Mark umbrellas for at least 20 years now, and they never disappoint. I just purchased on clearance, one red and one navy to replace the same red one that I must have had for at least 12 years. Because it is next to my pool, it indoors, a lot of sun, as well as rain. The fact that this identical umbrella lasted me, as I said, at least 12 years, is impressive. Other than a little fading of the fabric, the only reason we had to , replace the one we had was because the cord dry rotted. We do not leave the umbrellas outside during the winter, so that may have helped. The ease of using the crank tilt on MM umbrellas, the vibrance of the color, the metal ribs, and overall aesthetics make this my umbrella of choice

Good umbrella. I had one of these for three year and although it still worked I had a patch on it because of a wind storm that threw it into bushes and ripped the canopy in a small spot. This one was picked up by wind the second week I had it and landed in the pool. The only damage was a rip in one of the sleave ends that held the umbrella braces. An easy fix to resew. It was a 50 mile an hour wind so it was tossed pretty hard and survived.

easy to assemble, have it on a rolling 50 lbs base, mechanism is great, limited tilt but ok. i have a sunbrella from high end furn store, fabrick not quite as thick but i acutually like it equally and the ribs and pole is almost exact 400 dollars cheaper

This umbrella is great

Beautiful patio umbrella replacing the older one.
