We love the solar umbrella
So far good. Although, we don't use the umbrella at night much it look beautiful when we tested it. It solar and that to me is the best. Looking forward to the cooler months to take advantage out my outdoor patio. It is set so beautifully that I get compliments often. It's going into the hot summer months and I ran from the heat. I will give an update in a few months

Good product
Looks good and functions well. Filled the base with 100lbs of sand and high winds haven’t toppled it when it’s closed. The LED light strips are pretty good too!

Large, well-made shade umbrella
At 10-foot diameter, this is fantastic for providing needed shade during scorching Texas summers and, with the design, depending on the orientation, allows a wide, versatile arrangement for continued adjustments as the sun moves across the sky. Note: It does not rotate side to side, only up and down so, early morning or late afternoon shade might be limited.).It is really easy and simple to set up, the tilt mechanism is simple to use, and the material of the canopy and the frame should last. The base, when weighted sandbags are used, is sturdy and keeps it secure. However, once placed it is not really easily repositioned so, take your time deciding how you will place it taking into account the sun track during the day. Although not mentioned in the manual, each base cross piece has a hole in the top which I personally think could be used to secure the umbrella permanently to a deck.Overall, I am VERY pleased with this umbrella. A neighbor came over and after inspecting it, he asked for a link as he now wants one too.PRO:1. Very well made and is quick and easy to assemble by one person. Only 4 bolts are required for the base (a 14mm tool is provided if you do not have a 14mm wrench or socket).2. Easy to adjust the angle and position of the umbrella from horizontal to 45 degrees up.3. LARGE 10ft diameter provides a good deal of shade area for at least two lounge chairs.4. Included are 2 sandbags (sand not included) and a top cover to streamline the base5. While not mentioned, the base could also be bolted to the deck below for a cleaner and more permanent look by either using the holes on top of each cross brace (rather small though) or, drilling holes in the horizontal base braces to secure it to the deck.6. The solar rechargeable battery is a Ni-mh AA battery which is easily replaceable.Neutral1. Base requires sand, or gravel, to supply enough stability and, once set into position, it is not really moveable like some of those plastic bases that you fill with water and have wheels ... but those plastic bases are an added expense. Each sandbag takes approximately 1-1/2 50 lbs sand if you want each full (figure on 3 50# bags)2. While the solar lights are a decent touch, they are not bright and, IMO, they are more for mood than for lighting.Con:1. Base is not rotatable. While this tilts from horizontal to 45 degrees up, it does not rotate left to right so, placement in relation to the sun tract is paramount.One other thing to note is that the umbrella attaches in either of two 180-degree positions to the top. Initially I just plugged it in, and raised it, only to find that the ON/OFF switch and the black strip, that attaches the umbrella to the pole, was on the opposite side from the pole and could not be reached if tilted UP. I had to take it apart again, disconnect the umbrella from the top and rotate the umbrella 180 degree. Just make use when attaching the umbrella to the top you ensure the black Velcro strap, and the ON/OFF switch are located against the pole.

Good, with limitations
Good umbrella that works great for shade, but is not stable. Assembled according to instructions but the umbrella blew off in <15mph winds. Will keep it because I’m past the return window but can only use it on very calm days.

Looks Awesome!!!
So I was finally able to get it set up, and I'm so happy with it!!I had to get sand for the base, and that was a bit of work getting the sand into it, but once I had that done, it was super stable, and it casts a WIDE shadow!!It gets really hot out here in the summer, and only half my back yard gets shade. This turned the area that was formerly a desert wasteland of heat and misery into a shady oasis that I can put patio furniture under!I'd forgotten about the solar lights, so when I saw those, I was even more happy lol. They actually give off a lot of light in the dark, which is great for being able to actually entertain on a summer night!It's very well made, the shade material seems like it's good quality, sturdy material, and I'm REALLY pleased with it, and I'm looking forward to years of wonderful shade under it!!

Glowy Vibes All Evening Long
This HOMSHADE 10ft Cantilever Umbrella is massive, smooth to tilt, and the solar lights give off the perfect ambient glow for late dinners. I anchored the base with sandbags and it hasn’t budged in wind. Love that it provides UPF protection too—makes my deck feel resort-y.
