Astella 98" Hunter Green Solid Print Hexagon Market Patio Umbrella

I love the look it's steady and beautiful

Its HUGE... but... it doesnt tilt as shown in the picture and that was a deal breaker for me because of how the sun shines down in the afternoon. The price was great (under $30) and it arrived quickly. It is the size of a restaurant patio umbrella. The color is beautiful: hot brick. Love it all except for the deceptive advertising.

The color is nice and it does provide shade. The pole is a flaw, it is relatively flimsy. Other reviewers have complained that it does not have a crank but that is clearly stated in the description. However, the umbrella pole provided was not drilled through for the pin to be inserted.

So here is my big gripe... I can't reach high enough to open it up. I had to stand on a chair to even try and once I was up there, I wasn't strong enough to stand on a chair, lean off, and try to lift it high enough to open it. My husband is a couple inches taller than me and he can get it. So it lost a bunch of points with me because I can't do it by myself. How annoying. Also the "wood look" is very fake wood look. if I was able to open this, it would probably be a one season only umbrella, I couldn't see it lasting longer than that honestly. But since I can't open it, it might last 2 years folded up on my patio. (wasn't the goal when I bought it).

The umbrella was most difficult to push up because the material is obviously not cut big enough to push up and stay open. I was able to finally push it up to stay only by leaving one of the prongs uncovered by the material that otherwise would allow it to open completely. I wish I had read all the reviews before purchasing this umbrella. Thr material appears to be strong but is obviously cut wrong. It took me a while to realize why I could not open the umbrella completely.

First of all it's not wood it's steel painted to look like wood. The material is thin there's no tie to keep the umbrella from going up and you have to stand on a chair because there's no pulley for you to set what height you want the umbrella at and of course you have to do the same to close it I'm extremely disappointed I bought two and I ordered a cream or off-white and two beige came so there's I guess I got what I paid for

Difficult to put up. It looks nice when its open but literally my husband has to stand on a ladder to put the pin in. Its almost like its a defect in the pole. I wouldnt recommend this particular umbrella.

There is not a crank or pulley to open the umbrella. Other than standing on the table, you must take down the umbrella, push it down and insert the pin, then place it back up. How crazy is this.

I purchased this umbrella last June and this is the day (07-30) that I'm still waiting for this item. Looking at the reviews I believe that not only this item is going to come when summer is over, but I won't be happy with the quality. Can't understand how something can take so long if is coming from CALIFORNIA!!!! is not coming from China or Australia for god's sake.

This is a worthless piece of junk. The material is vibrant and decent, but there is no way it is possible to get it up high enough to put the peg in the hole. Its probably at LEAST 3-4 inches off to even make the lowest hole. Do not waste your money.
