Wonderful product! I had one for several years identical to this one. The “straw” never got thin and held up well. Unfortunately, I left up in a very windy storm which bent it so I replaced with this new one. It looks so good up and has a tropical feel to eat. Highly recommend!

We almost ordered one of these umbrellas last year and decided to definitely order one this year since we were hosting a Luau Themed Bridal Shower. What better excuse? Just glad to see that they were still available on Sams.com. "We Are Happy" with the initial quality. It is really tough to open up though and IMPOSSIBLE if you are older or short :0( 6'1" hubby managed to get it pushed up and I inserted the pin. Not sure if this would ever be a 'one man job.' We have not closed it since we set it up last week. We have had rain and a lot of wind (20-30+ mph) and it is doing just fine. Repels rain for quite a while - so it is possible to sit under it during a light shower - although we have not done that. At least the chairs stay fairly dry. Thankfully, we kept our heavy duty base from a previous patio table umbrella. It Works great! You absolutely MUST have a heavy base to hold it. For the price - this is a nice addition to any backyard. We are very happy with our purchase so far. We do wish Sam's still offered free shipping over a certain dollar amount instead of trying to coerce customers into buying into their 'plus' deal. That is my ONLY complaint so far.

Well made Hula umbrella! We purchased two of these a few seasons ago and seen that they were back in stock so we purchased two more. Our original two are in almost new condition being outdoors all year long. We do take it down before any heavy storms.

Very happy with this product.Which is the second one we've owned. It certainly got a lot of attention during a recent garden tour. All the things you hate about canvas umbrellas don't pertain. No fading and these do not get visibly dirty. Visitors to our yard love the look. A western jay has made a next below the canopy.

Love it but very heavy and hard to open

2nd one we got from Sams. It last us 8 years in our back yard.

Perfect addition to our beach-at-home

Very sturdy and looks great!

Star of the event, everyone loves the look that it brought to our patio.

Withstands 25-35mph wind gusts. Super solidly made. Great price.Super satisfied.
