[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the design of this umbrella. I like that I can use the remote control to open and close it. It has a Solar light inside that lights up. The solar panel charges it all day to light up at night. I love the layered style. It looks great on my patio. It was easy to put up with simple to understand instructions. It dresses up my outdoor area really nice.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a way to provide shielding from the direct sunlight that my deck receives, while also considering our frequent and strong gusts of wind. To complicate matters further, I don’t have a convenient way of stowing away conventional umbrellas when severe weather comes. I am so happy to report that the Height Series Smart Umbrella from ABOVE singlehandedly solved all of my problems! I had no idea that smart umbrellas exist, and it is so rich with features that it is truly the most comprehensively and intelligently designed protection from the outdoors I have ever seen. Firstly, the standard qualities of an outdoor umbrella are done exceptionally well here. Opened or closed, the structure is extremely solid yet lightweight, and I have absolutely no concerns about the umbrella’s arms bending or the fabric tearing. The fabric is anti-UV and is stated to resist fading for at least 5 years, which is great. The fabric layers are tiered so that wind is able to pass through, but rain will not. A weighted base is not included, but any standard base should fit the bill without issue. I measured nearly 9 feet of height from the ground to the bottom tier of the umbrella when opened, so any sized adult will fit with generous room. The diameter of coverage is 11 feet. Minimal assembly was required and I was up and running in 15 minutes. If we stopped at the above features I’d be satisfied, but the umbrella leaps ahead of standard versions by adding key smart features that I had no idea I was missing. A wind sensor is built into the top and triggers the umbrella to automatically close when a high wind threshold is met. Atop this sensor are solar cells that not only powers the remote control-triggered opening and closing features (and the wind triggered auto close), but also an LED light on the pole that provides a just-right amount of light. The remote control is nice, and the motor is strong enough that it does not require any human assistance. Can you tell I’m impressed? The Height Series from ABOVE has helped transform my deck experience for the better and the quality of the product is very apparent even on first look. I am expecting to purchase another umbrella to compliment this one because after experiencing it I realized how much unnecessary work a conventional umbrella truly is. Awesome job, ABOVE.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This umbrella does it all, remote control, solar powered, wind sensor and the very best fabric Sunbrella. Installation was easy instructions were easy to read and follow.The 11 foot open spread covers my patio table nicely. I can even sit on patio when it raining. The remote control is a great feature no more cranking just push a button and your umbrella opens and closes so smoothly. The sun will provide all the charging you need with the solar panel located on top of the umbrella. I have the red color is full and solid goes great with my red seat cushions. This umbrella will provide years of summer shade on your patio.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's an umbrella for your garden or patio , and it does the job. Right? Well the remote and additional features are almost transformative to how simple it is to use, and how much stress it takes away from using it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a hard time trying to find the base for the Umbrella but I finally did. Ya Lowe's. Both the Base and Umbrella were easy to assemble and the instructions were written well. Quick set up, looks Great. I love the color of the Canvas. It's really well made. We will use this for years. Thank you.

Bought this umbrella at a great price. it worked great for the first 1 1/2 months but stopped opening and closing past two weeks. I read how to troubleshoot the issue, and it opened once and got stuck again. If it came with a crank as an alternative in such cases, I would have kept it but instead I returned it today. I am sure the one you buy will eventually have the same issues. Great idea bad product. Do yourself a big favor and just buy a cheaper umbrella and crank it open and closed.

Purchased 4, one came broken. Set up the other 3, the wind sensors do not drop them, yes we calibrated them many times. Took an outdoor blower to the wind sensors, they only dropped on high and not every time. Defeats the purpose of having them. The poles are too small to support the 11' foot umbrellas. The concept is great! The umbrellas themselves are nice but if they don't automatically drop in the wind it's not worth having. One quit dropping by the remote, my husband found at the pole itself was broken. Figured it was from the wind and to small of a pole, not sure. Not worth the price paid. They're going back.

Very disappointed in this product, it is cheaply made, the canvas you can see through it. You have to use a USB-C charger. You have to take the top mechanism off on the 11' high umbrella in order to do that It is overpriced for what you're getting. There is no quality to it. There was nothing in the description to define the quality of the canvas and what you have to do to charge it. The review isn't allowing me to submit the photos where you can clearly see through the canvas

Lovely umbrella but it quit working and is locked in the open position after 2 months!

umbrella cord frays and breaks rendering the umbrella useless agter a very short time!
