Most gardens have no power near the seating. The evening ends when the light goes, or an extension cord gets run out through a door.

A panel on top of the arm charges the beads along the ribs while the sun is up. A manual switch turns them on after dark. Nothing is plugged in and nothing trails across the paving.

Every part, labelled

The manufacturer's callouts name the parts: a 360 degree rotatable joint, the solar panel that charges automatically, a vertical tilt adjuster, a light switch, eight rustproof steel ribs, an aluminum pole and a crank handle. That is the whole list of controls.

The numbers that matter

This drawing gives the useful heights. The canopy spans 10.00 feet, the arm reaches 6.43 feet out from the post, the rim sits 6.72 feet off the ground and the top is 8.03 feet. The cross base is 3.28 feet across.

What the panel buys you

Here is the evening the panel is for. The beads outline every rib and light the table below, with no cord back to the house. Switch them off when you go in, and they keep what the panel collected.

Clear of the tablecloth

By day the canopy hangs over a round courtyard table from the side. The tablecloth has no hole in it and needs none. The rotating joint lets the canopy follow the sun across the courtyard.

LED beads run along each rib and charge from a small panel on top of the arm. A switch turns them on, no cord needed.

The canopy hangs from a curved arm, so the post stands beside the seating instead of through it.

A rotating joint on the post lets the canopy swing right round to follow the sun.

A separate adjuster on the post leans the canopy down on one side against low light.

A crank handle raises and lowers the canopy without reaching overhead.

Eight rustproof steel ribs on a powder-coated aluminum pole hold the 10 foot canopy open.

The canopy hangs over from the side, so a table without an umbrella hole is no problem at all. Stone, glass and teak tops stay exactly as they are, with nothing drilled.

The lights along the ribs charge by day, so the table stays usable after sunset without an extension cord running across the paving or through a door left open.

It ships with a cross base but no weights, which suits someone reusing weights from an old umbrella or buying a proper cantilever base separately.

What we stand behind

• The LED count is withheld because the listing gives two different numbers.
• Every height quoted is taken from a dimension drawing, and we say which one.
• Ships from our United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
• 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

How much headroom is there?

This listing's drawing puts the rim at 6.72 feet and the top of the canopy at 8.03 feet, with a 10.00 foot canopy and a 6.43 foot arm reach. The middle is easy to walk under; a tall guest will duck at the edge. Size guides pair a 10 foot canopy with a round table of about 60 inches.

How many LEDs does it have?

This colour's own specification list says 24, while the shared lighting paragraph for the line says 32. Because the listing disagrees with itself we have not published a number.

Is a weighted base included?

No. The cross base comes with it and the weights do not. A side post umbrella carries its canopy off centre, so it needs noticeably more ballast than a centre-pole umbrella of the same width. No base weight is published for this model.

What should I do in strong wind and over winter?

The manufacturer's own image says to close it in strong winds, so crank it shut when a front comes through. For winter, let the canopy dry right through and store it dry, since damp fabric packed away is what starts mildew.
