CASTLECREEK 8' Half Round Patio Umbrella Khaki

This umbrella is perfect for patios that don't have a lot of floor space. I purchased 2 - one fits against the house and the other against our privacy fence. Using the base that is specifically for the half umbrella saves even more floor space.

Worked perfect for my needs. I like the way it hugs the wall. I have been waiting for something like this and I am so happy I purchased it.

The half umbrella is good quality. The umbrella is a medium wt.. canvas and the arms, shaft and handle are metal. The elevation mech, is plastic but it seems sturdy and it raises and lowers by a cord pulley system attached to a crank. So far it seems durable. It raises and lowers easily. Noticed some small tearing around the stitching by the pockets that contain the umbrella arms but it is very tiny and I don't see it being a problem. It covers about 90% of a 5 by 10 ft. deck. Be sure to get a semi circle base so the umbrella sits flush against the patio or wall. Its a shame SG doesn't offer one, its the perfect complement

We received our half patio umbrella just when the sun and warm weather had finally arrived in Michigan. The unit was Very reasonable in cost and works flawlessly. We are very pleased with this item .It fits right up tight next to the side wall of our home.

Arrived just in time for a week long heat wave. I live on the top floor of a condo complex. The sun beats down on my patio door, turning my unit into a sauna. My nine foot deep balcony was too narrow to fit a full size umbrella. The half size is perfect. The length is the exact size of my patio door. I marked down one star on quality because the crank part plastic is formed in a way that it originally will not crank correctly. You have to force the handle around, breaking some side plastic, in order to get the handle to work to lift the umbrella up.

This umbrella exceeded my expectations! Looks like durable material, quality built. I didn't realize you could take the fabric off to replace it if you needed to, which is a nice bonus; although I didn't see a replacement fabric top as an option. We plan to spray it with the water repellant spray even though it says water resistant and UV resistant (we do live in FL, = sun and rain on a daily basis). Already have it up on our picnic table, the hunter green color is very rich, looks awesome! Hope it lasts a couple years.

At first I couldn't fathom why anyone would want a half umbrella? Then it struck me that this was the solution to circumventing my town's not allowing any awning or canopy over one's driveway. Using adjustable 1/4" diameter threaded rods with turnbuckles and eye-bolts, the half umbrella serves as a removable wind proof awning atop my garage door shading the hood of my truck and my feral cat pals. It's a win all solution that also enhances my garage door rear truk mural. The addition of a four step seat and adjustable height table will complete the Tale-G8 demonstration fraud N.C.B.Y. Heel-icopter patrol.

We've been toying with the idea of a half umbrella for about 3 years, but kept thinking "what for"? Until 2 trees were removed from our yard. Long story short, without the 2 trees the people in the apartment building behind us can look right into our ground floor windows. With a 1/2 umbrella, we park it directly between our 2 back windows and, like magic, their view disappears. Another advantage, it keeps the sun from beating down on my window unit A/C so it doesn't work as hard. Only suggestion - a 1/2 umbrella stand. Or a stand that will sit flush against a wall so the umbrella is flush against the house.

The color description is way off or I was sent the incorrect item. It's listed as “khaki” but the umbrella is definitely brown. Doesn't even match my town home which is what I need.

The umbrella was much smaller than I had thought so I took the time to drive to the retail store to have them do a refund at location. They took the information for the refund and never credited my account now I am stuck in a big fiasco trying to get my money back on this item.
