The umbrella is big but I wish the base of it was not in the middle. It should be on the outside so it is out of the way from my middle table that I have to put to the side. The umbrella has to be in the middle to get it to cover my small patio chairs.
I love the size and the portability. It was easy to put together and looks nice on my back porch. I wanted something to grow herbs and chose this planter.
Umbrella arrived quickly however it was missing the base. Wayfair is sending new one. Umbrella material is not as thick as I thought it would be. When we get base and can open will report more.
We haven't done anything with this yet. Still working on finishing project so we can install handrail. Shipping was fast. Will try to update review after install.
Although quite large with an even larger than pictured base, a light wind toppled it and it rested sideways on my deck rail. Sadly it broke the first hour of putting it up. It didn't even blow away, one of the metal bracket that holds up the umbrella just snapped and broke. Very disappointed, cheaply made. Even had heavy paint cans at the base just to test it out. Just a 70 degree day the last week of February with slight breeze Will not purchase again.

I purchased in December 2020 so didn't test it out until February 2021 with decent weather. Otherwise I would ask for a refund.
