Worst Choice -- And I made it twice!

A little over a year ago when -- based on size, color, and reviews stressing minimal fading and flexible positioning -- I bought 2 tilting patio umbrellas. The umbrellas were used for a few months, then carefully stored inside for the hottest months of the Florida summer. A few weeks after their first usage this year, the tilting mechanism fell off, taking an internal spring with it. Literally -- fell off! There is no way it could have been abused or operated in a manner other than that specified. The umbrella would then neither tilt nor open and close. Foolishly, in an attempt to match the color of the remaining umbrella, I purchased another one. Once it arrived, it was glaringly obvious how much the first one had faded. (There doesn't appear to be a way to attach a photo here.) In addition, the little interior lights on the new umbrella don't work, even after the solar device was exposed to the sun for many hours -- AND the handle to open and close the umbrella keeps catching when I try to open it fully, making me skeptical that it will be working for long.
The solar lighted umbrella is beautiful! It’s like having another room in which to relax and enjoy a day or evening. The color (gray) is perfect with my new outdoor color scheme. And the price was excellent!
This umbrella is well made & easy to assemble! It was bigger than I realized it would be but works well & provides lots of shade Color is bright red & the built- in solar lights work well I would recommend highly ! Delivery was actually 2 days earlier than expected !!
