This was the #1 patio unbrella for 2024 as rated by thespruce.com. I'm always sceptical of online reviews because of kick backs, but I decided to try, as Amazon allows for free returns. Wow! was I impressed. I purchased the macaw green color, 3-tier with LED lights and love it. Very tropical looking! I am so tired of dry, hot, brown colors for summer patio furniture and this company gives a lot of color choices. Product arrived very fast and packaging was great. 9 foot coverage covers most of my 4 patio chairs and 1 table set. Buying another for my patio dining table. The tilt works great and I need this for sun protection as my patio is west facing and gets very hot as the sun is setting. The material seems very sturdy, stitching is solid and the LED lights seem very secure. The price cannot be beat. COSTCO wanted double this price. Time will tell how well if it holds up or any fading issue. Company claims 10 year non-fading, but I wouldn't expect the umbrella parts to hold up that long. Note that this does not include the base. I purchaed this one from Elite shade. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TW4BF2K?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 Total price $306 when COSTCO wanted $599 Read more

We wanted a second umbrella on our large patio and went to a home seller that has a large TV ad budget. Our original umbrella is 20+ years old and it's black Sunbrella fabric has not faded despite intense direct sun. Couldn't find what we wanted with Sunbrella , but ordered a $300 umbrella. It arrived looking and feeling skimpy and the pole broke when we first attempted to tilt. We decided to go to Amazon, found this seller using Sunbrella and promising superior engineering. It didn't disappoint. The pole feels sturdy, the frame is clearly strong and better constructed. The more refined engineering of the solar lights also makes the umbrella look more elegant. It even came in a well designed box that made unpacking and setup easy. This company has clearly put good engineering into crafting a superior product and we are now planning to order another to have an identical pair on our patio. Worth every penny and an excellent value compared to other products out there that are both more expensive and more cheaply made. Recommend without reservation. Read more

The umbrella is fine; it's attractive, it feels sturdy, and the lights and crank work well so far. It's not a problem for me, but for those who take the product's non-fading claims seriously ("10 years non-fading top", "fadeproof"), you should know that what the mfr is actually offering is a pro-rated discount on purchase of a replacement cover: 90% discount year 1, 80% year 2,etc., on up to a mere 10% discount in year 9. 6 month warranty on the frame, "10 years" on the canopy (meaning just the pro-rated discount? 10 yrs actual replacement warranty for issues other than fading? Unclear.) Read more

I was happy with these for awhile. We live in Phoenix where it rains very little. But it does rain occasionally. I went to move these 2 umbrellas from our pool side KoolDeck patio in preparation for some paint work. Shockingly I was to soon learn umbrellas had been storing rainwater somewhere and as I picked them up to move them dark, rusty water poured out on my clothes and new white sneakers while staining the Kool Deck, throw rugs, and cement floor in my store room. The water kept coming out and I had nowhere to go with the umbrella and no way to stop it. Im an old guy abd have had patio umbrellas my whole adult life. An umbrella is not supposed to store water let alone rust!!! The stains are not coming out of the concrete, Kool Deck, or my new shoes. Thanks EliteShade! Read more

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Sunbrella has always been an excellent brand name. I wanted a sturdy umbrella for our deck as well as for the ventilation and solar lights. I have owned this now for 4 years and it still looks great. Only one light no longer works, but there are many, so it is not that noticeable. The fabric is excellent quality, durable, good weight, the color has not faded, and it functions perfectly! It was a great choice. I would highly recommend this product. Thank you. Read more

Love this patio umbrella with the sunbrella material. Replaced one that is 11 yrs used everyday in SC with the hot southern weather and lots of sun, faded very little, lights still work and no rips or tears. Well worth the money. Read more
