PURPLE LEAF Offset Patio Umbrella Base Sand/Water Filled Square

Product Information

Not all parasols come with a cover, and even some that do aren’t exactly offering you the best covers you can get. I’ve had zips come straight off the first time I tried to close them, with some of the really cheap models, and some covers that weren’t even big enough to cover the parasols that they came with!

I would have liked to have seen more than two screws on the mounting as this is effectively when most of the stability comes from, but through our tests, they held up well so I guess I can’t grumble too much. Then again, we haven’t seen how well it handles a sudden storm, and I wouldn’t leave it outside if the weather looks to be changing, just to be on the safe side. Also known as an offset umbrella, the cantilever umbrella is used to keep the elements at bay for outdoor seating. Its uniqueness stems from its canopy. Words are not enough to express the efficacy of the Divine Style Royal Purple Garden Cantilever Parasol. Due to its waterproof cover, you can use the parasol under the rain without any hassles. Besides, the waterproof cover is coated with anti-UV materials to ensure you are safe from harmful sun rays while keeping you safe from moistures. Interestingly, the UV-coating prevent the cover from fade and thus enhancing long time use.
