PURPLE LEAF 9ft Patio Umbrella Outdoor Square Umbrellas Large Cantilever Umbrella Windproof Offset Heavy Duty Sun Umbrellas for Garden Deck Pool Patio, Beige

We bought two 10x10 umbrellas, and honestly, the price was amazing. Even better, the customer service from Purple Leaf has been absolutely outstanding, some of the best I’ve experienced. Square Iron Base: The day after placing my order, I realized the umbrellas didn’t come with bases, which explained the great price. But honestly, I’m glad they weren’t included because it gave me the chance to find something more solid and long-lasting. I didn’t want to deal with filling a base with water or sand, or worry about replacing it in a couple of years. After doing some research, I ended up going with the Purple Leaf Square Iron Patio Umbrella Base. It’s not the cheapest option out there, but it's definitely worth every penny. It’s heavy-duty, super sturdy, and I’ve been able to move the umbrellas around the yard without needing a second person, though my wife and some friends have done it too without any problem. Instead of using rocks like you might see in some online pictures (from Amazon or Home Depot), I used four 18"x18" pavers and eight 12"x12" pavers per base. Lowe’s happened to have a sale on pavers at the time, which was a nice bonus. Cantilever Umbrella: I should’ve bought these umbrellas years ago. Every summer I used to buy one of those pop-up canopies, and without fail, they’d get damaged, either flying into the pool, tearing apart, or just falling apart from weak frames or broken plastic parts. These cantilever umbrellas are a whole different story. The fabric feels high quality, they have a vent at the top for airflow (which really helps with the wind), and they’ve proven to be super durable. I love the overall design and how easy they are to use. Customer Service: Out of the two umbrellas I bought, only one had a couple of issues, and to be clear, neither one was Purple Leaf’s fault. The first umbrella set up perfectly. With the second, I noticed a small hole in the canopy fabric right out of the box. When I looked closer, the box itself had a puncture in the exact same spot, clearly damage from shipping. I reached out to Purple Leaf’s customer service on a Sunday afternoon, and they replied within an hour. They asked for a few details and, by the very next day, they had already shipped me a replacement canopy at no cost. Swapping out the old fabric for the new one was super easy. Later on, I ran into another minor issue: the canopy on the same umbrella started getting harder to close, and eventually it locked up halfway while I was trying to shut it. I had actually noticed something seemed off when I first assembled it, but we’d always been able to close it, until then. Again, I contacted customer service and explained the problem. They asked me to send a quick video showing the issue. Right away, they identified what was wrong and sent me a replacement handle. That fixed the problem, and swapping it out was quick and simple. I worked with a rep named Alex and the Purple Leaf Team, and they were incredibly helpful and professional every step of the way.

I had done months of researching different brands and styles, reading through hours and hours of their reviews and adding them to my list. This including the Purple Leaf brand. Then, Prime Day came and this one was over 50% off and I just couldn't pass up the deal. Especially after already reading about this company and seeing that their products received such high reviews from others. To be fair, I was already leaning towards Purple Leaf and now that we have it, I would have been just as pleased had I paid full price. Honestly, I wouldn't have batted an eye. The Prime Day discount just helped speed along my actual purchase. Next thing I did was order the Purple Leaf in-ground base (separate from the umbrella order). We previously had a Costco Sunbrella that we had inserted through a patio table hole and into a base rated up to 140lbs but because of the steady breezes and (more often than not) occasional gusts, the Costco umbrella base wasn't nearly strong enough causing the umbrella to tip over, usually taking the table with it. I knew that because of the winds we get, a bolted or in-ground base would be more practical and safe for our particular environment. That is not to imply in any way that the Purple Leaf water/sand fillable bases wouldn't adequately hold up against breezes. I just knew the issues we had with our previous umbrella stand blowing over and didn't want to have to use the giant base required for this cantilevered umbrella simply due to it's large footprint and knowing the kind of winds that can come through our property. However, having the option to move the umbrella around on our patio would've been ideal but I just didn't want to chance it. Bolting it down to the patio would've been a slighty cheaper route too but there's always that trip hazard if we decide to store the umbrella inside so, in-ground with cement made the most sense for us. Just know, depending on your soil conditions, digging to the recommended depth and width isn't always an easy task so do keep that in mind. Order and Delivery: Upon ordering on July 12th, I had to choose from a list of delivery days. The soonest date available was Sat July 29th between 8am-8pm via CEVA Logistics and it stated that a signature was required at the time of delivery. Once it finally shipped (from Florida) I was able to start tracking the shipment through Ceva's website. As a side note, I did become a bit concerned about possible shipping issues after noticing that most reviews, mainly from Amazon customers, for this particular carrier were dang near all negative. Most mentioning that the logistic company would call the customer to confirm the time and day but then they'd never show or even call to reschedule. There were plenty of stories that sounded like complete nightmares so I prepared myself for that as best I could. Once the tracking showed that the shipment had arrived at SeaTac Airport and was picked up by CEVA's ground transportation in Seattle, I was able to go online through the CEVA website, click "change my delivery date" and was able to pick a new delivery date 3 days earlier than originally scheduled. The new date also updated through Amazon's tracking as well. The day of delivery, I'd read that I'd be getting a call from their driver at least 30 minutes prior to arriving and a signature would still be required but that call never came. While I was out running a quick errand that day, my Amazon app updated my order status as "delivered" which did surprise me since nobody was actually home to sign for it. They had dropped the box off on my back patio. The box itself definitely looked a little worse for wear so I took plenty of pictures of the damaged packaging knowing that until we got the hole dug and base cemented, I wouldn't be able to open up to inspect for damage to the umbrella itself. IN GROUND BASE: *ORDERED SEPERATE* We did use the Purple Leaf in-ground base. It was sold out on the Purple Leaf website but I did find them available on Amazon for the same exact price. According to Purple Leaf, their in-ground base will fit ANY of their purple leaf umbrellas but that bases from any differing brand, would not. I simply typed in Purple Leaf in-ground base and it popped right up. I also saw in past reviews where someone else had successfully made their own in-ground cement base to mount the base tube assembly by matching its bolt pattern which I'll touch more on a little further down in my review. My husband dug our hole 33" deep x 25" wide. This is a bit deeper than the required 28" depth but he wanted to cement it in with 800lbs vs 500lb of fast-setting Quikrete. Probably overkill but the base wasn't going to be coming back out of the ground one way or the other so the extra 300lbs was for peace of mind only. We let the base set up overnight in the concrete and next day my husband bolted the base tube assembly onto the (cured) in-ground base plate. Then he lifted and installed the actual umbrella main base by sliding it over the mounted base tube assembly he had just bolted on. He did this by himself but since the umbrella is attached to it's main base tube, you may need two people to help lift it up and onto the short base tube assembly since the umbrella and main tube is quite heavy. I wanted to be clear on this process because I saw alot of questions about whether a Purple Leaf umbrella stand itself could fit into or bolted onto any base (water/sand filled, bolted plate base or in-ground base) made by another brand or company. See, there are TWO base components that come with these umbrellas. The "main" base tube which comes attached to the umbrella itself and a short base "assembly" piece. The short base "assembly" piece which is about 2 ft tall has to first, be bolted or attached to whichever type of base (in-ground, water or bolted plate, etc) you choose. But again, the main base itself must be bought SEPERATE and is not included when you purchase the umbrella. The shorter base tube "assembly" piece must be installed for your umbrella to work properly. I did attach illustrations from the umbrella manual itself that I also typed a short explanation next to on how the main tube slides over the short base tube assembly, regardless of the type of base it's being installed on. Just remember, unless you're able to engineer something that the shorter base tube assembly piece can bolt directly onto and it's sturdy enough to hold the weight of the umbrella up under breezes you'd be better off to just buy one of their bases that they recommended depending on the size of your umbrella. Their in-ground base and bolt to structure plate systems can be used on all their cantilevered umbrella's. But not all of their water/sand bases are interchangeable so be sure to go to the Purple Leaf website to confirm which one they recommend based on the umbrella and size you're buying. The base that may show up as "other customers also bought with this item" on the Amazon app isn't the route you should go. Do yourself a favor and just go to the Purple Leaf website or their store on Amazon. After Installing: There is foam packaging that is wrapped around each individual umbrella rib that will prevent you from opening the umbrella after you've installed it onto the base. Be sure to remove that before cranking the handle to open the umbrella. Also, somehow we missed this in the manual, but the main umbrella base is intended to lean backwards 2.5°. So don't spend 5 minutes scratching your head and double checking the bubble on your level like we did before referring back to the manual. Derp! The handle moves quite easily up and down the tube, locking into whatever hole I need depending on the angle I want the umbrella raised or lowered at. For me, it takes both hands to raise the handle when the umbrella is closed. But once it's cranked open, the counter weight seems to be what helps the handle glide up and down the tube so easily. It does spin around 360° by turning the botton crank at the foot of the umbrella base. This also turns nice and easy. To open or close umbrella, you will turn the crank on the side of the main handle. When cranking to open or close there's a center black plastic piece inside the umbrella that disconnects when closing or connects when opening (see last 2 pictures). It may seem like you have no tension on the crank when opening until it's cranked enough times to slide up into the main center tube. So if it feel like you've been turning alot to open the umbrella, make sure you check that it's pulling itself back up into that center tube. The last two pictures will show you what center tube and plastic connector piece I'm talking about. First Impression: Upon first opening up the umbrella to inspect the fabric and supports, I noticed a very small hole in the double top fabric piece. I took pictures and emailed their customer service requesting a replacement fabric for the top piece. If there's any issues in getting that replaced free of charge, I'll be sure to update but I truly don't expect that there will be. Other than the minor hole in the fabric, I am absolutely thrilled with quality and look of this umbrella! I especially love the wood grain finished look on the tube and frame. The fact that it was over 50% off for Prime Day was just an added bonus! The one I purchased is just as beautiful and built as sturdy as the commercial ones you see at the resorts. It's gorgeous! I am so relieved that all the great reviews I read here on Amazon actually do match the product I recieved! I won't even hesitate a little bit when we're ready to buy another one for the seating area on the other side of yard! Get your base figured out and buy the umbrella! You won't be disappointed! Enjoy! 🌞 Hopefully the illustrations and pictures I added can help those trying to understand how this umbrella attaches to the seperate base.

Quality is the key. I purchased this cantilever umbrella to replace an existing one. My old umbrella was hard to open and position. I wanted an umbrella that was attractive, durable, and easy to use. I was able to assemble the umbrella and stand by myself, though I would recommend help. I was surprised at the quality of the materials and even more surprised at how easy it is to open and adjust to the proper angle and position. And yes, it does easily rotate 360 degrees. I also bought the umbrella cover and found it also easy to use - easy on, easy off. In my opinion, the umbrella costs more than most but the difference in quality is more than worth the difference.

We are absolutely thrilled with this 10x10 umbrella. It’s very solid and stable, with a 360-degree rotation that makes it easy to adjust the shade throughout the day. It perfectly covers our patio area and adds both comfort and elegance to the space. Instead of using a portable base, we chose the permanent installation option with the base that bolts directly into the concrete. That was a fantastic decision — the base is much smaller, significantly stronger, and holds everything firmly in place. Ideal if you know exactly where you want it. Assembly wasn’t super easy due to the weight of the structure, but my husband was able to do it without any issues. The quality is excellent, the design is thoughtful, and the overall performance has exceeded our expectations. Once winter arrives, we plan to remove the upper part and leave only the base installed, so the umbrella can be stored safely in the shed or garage. Highly, highly recommended. We’re extremely happy with this purchase.

La couleur est magnifique et quasi impossible de trouver ce genre de produit et cette couleur en magasin. Belle finition, le bois est du plus bel effet !

Assez facile à manipuler et élégant

Despite being a bit pricey it is reflected in the quality. Fabric thickness is tough and waterproof. Functionality quite heavy so you need to be relatively strong to push up the lifting mechanism but parasol withstands light wind buffeting well. Fit was easy. Made the mistake of leaving off the rain protection cover for a couple of weeks which resulted in green mildew marks on the fabric. I contacted Purple Leaf to ask them to recommend a cleaning product. As the parasol was still within guarantee, they sent us new parasol fabric set. Alex at Purple Leaf Customer Service was an excellent communicator; kept us advised throughout and we received new fabric within four days from China to UK! Amazing.

Pour le prix, les explications et le mode d'emploi pour le montage mériteraient d'être traduits en français. Le produit est livré avec un étui permettant de le ranger en saisons moins propices. Pour les personnes qui habitent en maison il n'est pas nécessaire d'acheter le socle si vous disposer d'une surface bétonnée car il peut être vissé. J'habite en appartement avec très grande terrasse où il y a beaucoup de vent. La terrasse est pavée de dalles en béton, et là donc impossible de fixer le parasol sur ces dalles qui, avec la force d'un petit vent ne tiendront pas au sol, le parasol étant très lourd. Donc il faut acheter le socle et le remplir d'eau, ou de sable car là aussi en période hivernale, un socle rempli d'eau peut faire des dégâts. Ce parasol reste néanmoins un très bon produit, solide et de qualité mais pour moi il est bien trop cher. Qui plus est, si vous habitez un endroit où il y a beaucoup de vent, il faudra fixer le parasol à plusieurs endroits au niveau des baleines pour éviter qu'il ne tourne et ne s'envole.

Je suis vraiment très satisfait de cet achat, le parasol est beau et est de bonne fabrication. Le rapport qualité prix est excellent selon moi.
