Our previous Sunbrella's tilting feature bit the dust after about ten years, so this was purchased as a replacement. The blue/green shade was the only one in stock, and while the color is lighter and not as vibrant as I would have liked, it is fine and the umbrella provides a nice amount of shade. Everything works great -- we do use an umbrella stand. It came in a protective slide-on case, presumably for storage, but I don't know how it would ever fit in there again, so that's kind of worthless. Anyway, so far, so good!

this is a very durable umbrella. the materials feel like high quality. the fabric feels thick and heftier than past patio umbrellas I've owned. I predict this will last longer and keep the color longer than most in the market. highly recommended without a doubt.

These umbrellas are really nice but sometimes the mechanism doesn't hold it open, and you watch the handle turn by itself

I haven't put it up outside yet, but in the house, it doesn't stand up completely straight and it's wobbly. I will probably be returning this thing.

Took the umbrella out to put it on the stand and the push button inside feel out of the pole. We never used it once. Super disappointed.

Perfect match to two other umbrellas purchased at least four years ago .... therefore no fading at all?

Outstanding, we love it! I would describe it as heavy duty. It has Sunbrella fabric, sturdy metal pole, and the ribs are held in place by pockets at each point instead of staples. It has held up great on days with heavy wind gusts.

You can't go wrong with this umbrella. Sunbrella is the best fabric to use. Being in Florida, vew things last in the sun. This umbrella will last longer the rest.

Great umbrella. I purchased the haze color. It's like a dusty blue. The umbrella comes wrapped with a cover that you can use to store it. Good quality.

The material is thick and sturdy on the umbrella. I put it up every day as it shades my glass sliding doors from the Sun and heat. It has with stood some winds without any damage to it.
