Customer Review
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 June 2020Good quality, attractive parasolI bought this parasol after my old parasol snapped in the wind. My husband put it up and this seemed to be a straight forward process. It is large so provides a good level of shade. It is also attractive and is good quality. It doesn't tilt but I was unconcerned about this. When a parasol is tilted, it tends to swing about in the slightest breeze and this is how my last parasol got broken. As a result, I was quite happy this didn't tilt. Please note that you will need to buy a base to use with the parasol. A lightweight base will suffice if you intend to insert the parasol through the centre of a patio table. However, if you intend the parasol to standalone, you will need a heavier base in order to provide stability. I bought a base which can be filled with water or sand thus making it nice and heavy. Please also make sure that you buy a base which fits the parasol as I found that my old base did not fit this parasol and I was forced to buy a new base. All in all, this parasol was a good buy and I am happy to recommend it.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 June 2019Beautiful itemI bought the beige/stone one so that it will not change much in colour when the sun bleaches it as it did my green one.It very good quality and looks stunning. It has an open flap part at the top so that the wind can go through so much more steady than the normal ones. Nice thick pole great value, really pleased with it.I have mine through a hole in the middle of a Rectangular table for 6, covers the table but not the end chairs which suits me fine. Under my table is a heavy metal umbrella holder which holds it tight.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 May 2021Excellent sturdy parasolThe service from the supplier was absolutely outstanding. Delivery was within 24 hours, in lockdown in a pandemic! The product is equally excellent. We had a brilliant one previously that needed replacing and we were worried we wouldn’t get such a good one but this is just a strong and sturdy. Easy to put together as there are only two pieces and it winds up and down with great ease. We decided to purchase the 2.4 metre size after a lot of deliberation and are very pleased it sits perfectly above our table and chairs. I believe this will last the test of time. Highly recommended.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 July 2018Smooth Easy Opening Garden UmbrellaThis is the perfect garden umbrella. I have always had to struggle when wanting to open up a garden umbrella so this year thought that I would try making things easier for myself by getting one with a handle/crank. Its so so easy to open and only takes a minute. Highly recommend this item.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 June 2021More robust than the tilting versionPurchased a tilting version of this last year thinking it was a good idea. I was wrong! As others have observed, when tilted, it becomes unsteady due to uneven weight distribution and it also catches any breeze like a sail. This puts considerable stress on the hinge and led to it’s premature failure without the parasol even falling over. It didn’t even last the summer sadly.So went back to this ‘non tilting’ version. It looks well made and of good quality. Everything works as it should and the pole fits our existing stand.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 August 2020Ideal budget garden parasoleasy to assemble, and take down for storage if neded.The handle is a good size and the mechanism feels sturdy, but it isn't to heavy to turn meaning it's easy to put up even with reduced limb strength or poor grip. The fabric of the parasol seems to sturdy, we've had ours up for a few months and no sign of wear, tear or discolouration yet.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 August 2021The Perefct Garden ParasolIt looks great and is very smart but I can't believe how easy it has been to assemble. From getting it out of it's box, in three minutes I'd clicked it into place, cranked up the sun shade umbrella and sat beneath it with a cup of tea! And I'm 77 and disabled! Well done Christow!!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 April 2019Thick poleAs other reviewers have mentioned on here the pole on this parasol is very thick and wont fit into most cast iron bases. I had to cut 2 feet off the bottom of my pole with a grinder and slide a thinner pole inside from my old parasol so that it would fit In my cast iron base. In all fairness though the parasol looks good and is of a decent build and is sturdy.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 May 2020Seller does not reply to meThis item arrived damaged - it was for a very special occasion - a picnic in the garden yesterday on what should have been their wedding day - cancelled due to pandemic. The umbrella looks nice but arrived with damage. I contacted the seller - no response.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 July 2018perfectthis is strong and sturdy well worth the money bought for my husband as he is a kidney transplant recipient so has to stay out of the sun also great for my white German Shepherd who also has to be careful money well spent
Customer questions and answers
- does come whit the base ?No it doesn't come with a base and check carefully if you buy a separate base as the stem is wider than your average garden umbrella.
- Does it collapse for storage?Yes, you can wind the canopy down and remove the bottom half of the pole if necessary
- What is your return policy?Try asking the supplier not another customer!!!
- Why does it say it tilts? When p hendry says it doesn’t?No idea but mine doesn’t. You get what you pay for. This is very cheap, light weight, plastic BUT it’s serviceable and the crank works fine.
