“Got it out for its first day of use and so far so good. Seems good and sturdy. The winding handle is a useful feature for putting up and down. Being able to tilt the top toward the angle of the sun also makes a huge difference for all day sessions. All I would say is plan to purchase a stand at the same time you buy this umbrella. It isn’t much good without one. I bought a 15kg, 450mm concrete stand, and in hindsight, I’d buy something heavier / wider. Learn from my mistake.”
