The Sunbrella fabric is thinner than my past Sam's Umbrella from 3yrs ago. The crank, ribs and pole feel lighter also. No LEDs while my last one's had Solar LED setups at this same price. The price $140 in my opinion is little high, I would rate this umbrella at the $99 level, because of no LEDs, thinner materials. Will this hold to the test of time, don't know.

Very pleased with the easy-snap pole connection and the auto-tilt feature built into the crank mechanism. Both are improvements over older umbrellas we have had. No longer need to fight with a threaded connection or to go get a stool to reach the tilt mechanism. Chose because of the Sunbrella fabric and the ten foot size. The other two features described above were a bonus.

Best Umbrella Ever! What else could you say about an umbrella that rises easily by turning the handle and when it gets to the top.... wait for it.... tilts automatically by continuing to turn the handle! That's right - you don't have to reach up inside and push a button or something else that pinches the skin on your fingers! Great shade - great purchase! Definitely get the stand, too - this has a lot of fabric to catch wind and you'll need the stout (60-lb) stand to offset the sail!

My 3 year old umbrella succumbed to a little windstorm, leaving my deck in the sun. Sam’s had a nice end of season clearance sale. I found a replacement umbrella for a good price. Red was the only available color , so I got an outdoor rug with red in it for the deck. Now I’m in the shade again! The umbrella required no assembly other than inserting and securing the pole into the base. It works really well. Crank it one way to open, and continue to crank if you want the tilt. Crank it in reverse to close it. Super easy! I can’t be without my shady deck.

Great well made umbrella. I only buy ones with Sunbrella fabric because they do not fade.

I bought three. Enough said

Returned two of these umbrellas and customer service on the second return was terrible.

Nice quality. Pipe diameter is 1 inch, so, it needed a larger sleeve to support it through the larger hold in the table top and the support base.

It's a pretty color. It says it will protect against UV rays. As it's 8 feet high, I can't take the cover off and on unless I take it apart or stand on a ladder. I have yet to use the tilt. Especially if you have to manually do it.

I have had several of these over the years. Always been good quality. With the latest one I bought the material is thinner than in the past and it diffuses the sun, not blocking it out. So you are not shaded totally under it.
