A market umbrella needs a hole in a table. Loungers, day beds and corner sofas have nothing of the kind, and a floor stand planted in the middle of them ruins the reason you bought the furniture.

The aluminum column stands on its own loaded base to one side and the braced arm carries the canopy across the top of whatever you have put underneath. The foot pedal turns the shade as the sun moves, and six tilt positions lean it into low light.

Everything on one edge

Post, arm and four base plates on the left, 10 feet of red canopy on the right. That is the whole idea of a cantilever and the reason its base is so much heavier than a table umbrella's. The top down view shows the round canopy with LED strips along the ribs.

Over the loungers, from the side

Seen from above, the canopy covers both loungers and the table between them while the column stands back on dry paving. There is nothing to walk around and nothing between the chairs. At 6.4 feet the rim is low enough to block a late sun and high enough to sit up under.

After the sun has gone

Four insets show the lighting: the bright light at the hub, 35 beads along the ribs, the solar panel that charges them and the switch on the post. Roughly 6 to 8 hours from a full day, on the manufacturer's figure, with nothing plugged in anywhere.

Moving a hundred pounds of shade

Six tilt positions stepping down, and a pedal that releases the whole canopy to swing around the post. With a 212 lb base on the ground, this is the only practical way to move the shade, and it takes one person a few seconds.

Four plates of 20 by 20 by 3 inches on a 40 inch cross frame, put at 212 lb on the manufacturer's drawing.

Beads run the ribs with a brighter light at the hub, rated at roughly 6 to 8 hours from a full charge.

The arm steps through six settings, so the canopy can lean into a low sun and stay where you leave it.

Step on the pedal, hold the post, turn. Two hundred pounds of base stays planted while the shade moves.

Eight metal ribs carry the 10 foot canopy from the hub, keeping the fabric taut instead of loose at the rim.

A stout aluminum column with a triangular brace behind the arm, which is what stops a long overhang nodding.

The vent lets air climb out through the top of the canopy rather than pushing against the whole underside.

Wind it open or shut from waist height, then strap the folded canopy so it sits tidy against the post.

A round canopy over a round table wastes nothing, and with the post outside the group the table top stays clear.

Base and lighting are both part of the product, so there is no second order and no waiting to use it.

Thirty five beads and a bright central light run about 6 to 8 hours off the day's charge, with nothing plugged in.

What we stand behind

• The base is stated as included on the manufacturer's own dimension drawing, with its weight and plate sizes printed there.
• Rib count, LED count and runtime are the manufacturer's published figures and agree across its text and images.
• Ships from our United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
• 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

Will it shade a pair of loungers?

Yes. Ten feet of round canopy covers two loungers with a small table between them, or a round dining table of about 60 inches with six chairs. The rim sits 6.4 feet above the ground and the crown 8.4 feet, so you can sit up under it without meeting fabric.

Does the base come with it?

Yes. The manufacturer's dimension drawing states a four piece base is included for secure anchoring and puts it at 212 lb, with plates measuring 20 by 20 by 3 inches sitting on a 40 inch cross frame. The product title rounds that figure to 220 lb, so the two numbers in the record differ slightly. 212 lb is the figure printed on the drawing and it is the one we publish.

Can the canopy be tilted as well as turned?

Yes, and they are separate controls. Six tilt positions lean the canopy over and hold it there, and the foot pedal at the base swings the whole canopy around the post. Use tilt against a low sun and rotation to move the shade elsewhere.

What is the winter routine?

Crank it closed, put the fixing strap round the folded canopy, let the fabric dry right through and store it dry. The manufacturer's own note on the dimension drawing asks you to close the umbrella in severe weather, and Canadian care guides add the rest: snow load bends ribs, and damp fabric folded away grows mildew.
