Best Choice Products 10ft Offset Hanging Market Patio Umbrella w/Easy Tilt Adjustment, Polyester Shade, 8 Ribs for Backyard, Poolside, Lawn and Garden

I recently purchased this outdoor umbrella, and I couldn't be more pleased with my decision. Not only is it incredibly easy to put together, but it's also hands down the best deal I've found compared to other options on the market.Firstly, assembly was a breeze. The instructions were clear and straightforward, and all the necessary tools were included. Within minutes, I had the umbrella set up and ready to provide much-needed shade in my outdoor space. It's designed with user-friendliness in mind, making it accessible for anyone, regardless of their DIY skills.The umbrella itself is sturdy and well-made. The frame feels durable, and the fabric is high-quality, providing excellent UV protection. I particularly like the crank mechanism, which allows for smooth opening and closing without any hassle.In terms of value, this umbrella exceeds expectations. It's competitively priced compared to similar products, yet it doesn't compromise on quality. I've seen other umbrellas that cost significantly more but don't offer the same level of durability or ease of use.Beyond functionality, the design is attractive and complements my outdoor decor perfectly. Whether I'm enjoying a sunny day or seeking shelter from a passing shower, this umbrella has become an essential addition to my outdoor setup.Overall, I highly recommend this outdoor umbrella to anyone looking for a hassle-free solution to enhance their outdoor living space. It's easy to assemble, offers exceptional value for money, and delivers on both performance and style. It's truly a standout product that has made a positive difference in my enjoyment of my outdoor area.

This is such a great umbrella, easy to put together baby blue color is perfect and it fits amazingly in the spot I put it in!!!Thanks!!!

TLDR: Easy Assembly. Low cost, quality and longevity remains questionable.UPDATE: After a couple weeks of what I would call casual use, the plastic guard preventing the mechanism from going too far upwards and letting the umbrella too low, broke and fell out of its place completely with the weight of the umbrella pushing it up the pole, scratching it along the way. ALSO, it doesn't even work as an umbrella, as water just drips right down the center assembly underneath the umbrella. I have a hammock under mine right now and I was pretty surprised when i felt the center of it and it was sopping wet after a light rain. Not sure whats happening there, might be related to the umbrella hanging too low.Changing review from 3 starts to 1 star, and will probably request a return or replacement.*original review*Pros: Very easy to assemble, very easy to operate, does exactly what you expected it to do.Neutral: if your area isn't PERFECTLY balanced on a horizontal plane facing the umbrella, it will lean off to the side. Old umbrella was not this noticeable, but this is easily solved by slightly rotating the base. The way that offset umbrellas are designed makes this pretty negligible considering gravity will always balance out the umbrella portion.Cons:Wobbly. I understand offset umbrella's have a bit of play, but this is a little more than whats expected; Definitely not a deal breaker though, no issues from this, just an observation.*Con which prompted review*After a bit of use (less than 2 weeks), the mechanism that locks the umbrella in its height position very quickly lost a bit of its former vigor and when you lock the umbrella towards the beam's highest position, the mechanism does not have enough hold to keep it in place, and the assembly slides upwards.*My solution*I'm probably going to have to buy a locking Oil Filter wrench and see if I can use that to keep it locked in position on the pole. The issue with this is that it obviously is going to scratch it up like crazy over time, but I don't see much of a choice being that the entire pole/arm/umbrella assembly is provided as one factory assembled piece.Love offset umbrellas and I want to give this a better review, which I would have if the lever was better at locking it in position.

After researching umbrella options, I decided on cantilever/stand-alone vs in-the-table so that we could move it around the patio as needed and because you can’t use a tablecloth easily with an in-the-table umbrella.I chose this one as it seems to be the cheapest on Amazon while still having several thousand 4-5 star reviews.Unless you go for the top tier $500 umbrellas, it seems like all the cantilevers need an additional base to weigh them down. I went with this sand base as it was about $27 vs. the water ones which start at $60.Gravipod Duo Direct Detachable Umbrella Base Weight Bags - Up to 100 lbs. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089SBZJNK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_drW1yHk8YAB8iI had also read a review that the water ones could be hard to fill up. Also, this sand one can hold a full bag of sand without having to pour it out and has handles to really easy to move.Unfortunately I had some problems with the umbrella, but they have been resolved. First, it came with 2 “left legs” for the base so they couldn’t click into each other. I called the seller and they sent me a new whole umbrella a few days later. The new one had a crack in a plastic piece on top of the canopy (which didn’t impact anything) but because I had the other umbrella, I mixed and matched pieces from the 2 sets. The metal feels sturdy, the cloth feels thick. There are a few plastic pieces which make it feel a little cheap but not enough to stop me from buying it again.The raising and tilting mechanism isn’t as straightforward as you’d think; it basically only has 1 position it locks in at each height level. Hard to explain, but in essence it doesn’t have as many angle options as I thought it would, but still enough to provide the shade we wanted.Very happy with final product and it held up well in a light wind on my first day. The canopy sways in the wind which is a little annoying but I think that’s intentional so it doesn’t tip over. The sand base didn’t move at all, so overall it felt secure.
