I ordered one of these umbrellas and was so pleased with its quality and appearance that I ordered two additional ones. They are sturdy,easy to raise and lower, and look great surround my pool. By day, their shade is good for sitting under, and at night the lighting is appealing.

I liked everything about this 10’ lighted umbrella except the bad reviews on the lights not working. I let it charge all day and tried the lights when it got dark out . They didn’t work and I was disappointed but not surprised. This morning I figured I would look at it and the solar panel twisted off under the solar panel the wire harness was not plugged it . I plugged it in and the lights work perfectly. So I’m gonna day that they maybe can’t ship it connected to the batteries or someone was to lazy to plug it in at the factory . Wasn’t a big deal it took me about 2 minutes .

I have been wanting an umbrella for my outdoor table for a long time, I just couldn't stomach paying such a high price. When I saw this one I took a chance. It's fantastic! Assembly took maybe 3 minutes. I'm glad I read the reviews about the solar pack on the top. Basically take the top off carefully, if it doesn't automatically come off. There is a wire clip in the umbrella that needs to connect to the solar power connection. Then Ta-da, the lights work. Seriously, this makes me so happy! I purchased the orange and it's lovely.

I have only had mine for a few weeks, so can't say how it will hold up long term, but as of right now, I am impressed! The quality seems good, it looks quality, not cheap looking. The solar lights all work with soft light, not blinding. I got the orange color and it is really pretty! The price was great when compared to most others. I have no problem in saying "buy one!" Update: I still like the umbrella, but it has faded pretty bad in just about 3 months. I would say it has lost half its color. I still would probably buy it again because most all umbrella's do fade. 2nd update: The color has continued to fade badly. It is just now end of September and so in just one season it has lost almost all of its color. The fabric seems to be in good condition as far as strength, meaning it hasn't torn anywhere yet and the solar lights still work well. So my suggestion would be that if you buy one of these, get a light color to start with so that the fade won't be so noticeable. I know the light colors are not as pretty, but neither are noticeably faded umbrella's either. I think if you live further south than me (Ky) that the fade would be twice as fast too. Right now I think when I need another umbrella, I will go back to Menard's, pay a little more but get better quality. Those usually will last several years if you put them in storage during the winter months.

This umbrella is perfect: strong, wind-vented, beautiful color (we got the rust shade), and the lights work perfectly. At first we thought the lights didn't work, but then I went back through the reviews and read that the wires in the very top of the umbrella need to be inserted into the solar panel. I would never have known this if some thoughtful reviewer had not posted it in the past. Unfortunately, there were no enclosed directions advising the recipient to do this. SO...before you get frustrated and condemn this product, connect those wires! We are very happy with ours.

The sun protection is wonderful. Lots of coverage. It’s very sturdy and heavy. I’ve been using my umbrella almost daily for 2 months of writing this review and I’ve had no issues. The solar lights aren’t bright enough to give off enough light for reading, but they give a great ambiance. I’m very pleased with this umbrella. Side Note: As stated before it’s a heavy umbrella, so if you’re using it free-standing (not in the center of a patio table) then be sure to get a very sturdy umbrella stand (at least 20 pounds). Also, I saw complaints about color fading, so I did purchase an umbrella cover just to be on the safe side. I love the umbrella and would like it to remain beautiful for as long as possible, so spend an extra $20 and get an umbrella cover if your umbrella will be exposed to the weather year-around.

it came in less than 24hrs,its ten foot span is awesome, Beautiful red that matches my deck and chairs,of course it tilts and has on off button for lights,came with poles long enough for 6.5ft man to stand under,does not come with base,built in strap with Velcro when stored down postion ,virtually no assembly just one 5ft pole that clicks into top part.and u have to attach solar panel on top,just plug in module and twist on like a jar,completely satisfied with the brilliant color, and overall quality of umbrella,no buyers remorse,the lights last six hours after dark very calming and adds so much high end look.ManleyMan

I was looking for an affordable umbrella . I was fortunate to find this one at half the price of a regular umbrella at Lowes. When I saw that it also had LED solar lights, I was sold ! $85 was in my price range . I wasn’t expecting a quality product but only one that would offer some shade by day and light by night. Well I was shocked 😳 when I opened the product. It was Fabulous! It is sturdy and well made . The fabric is good quality. … btw they offer a huge selection of fabric colors …..It is so beautiful. All my guests admired it and some are getting the same umbrella. I had some trouble with my product at first, getting the lights to work the second use and needed assistance from the manufacturer. They immediately emailed me within the hour, and made sure I was satisfied with a replacement and even sent a follow up email What I did not realize that is helpful is that when you close the umbrella be very careful the lights do not switch on or the battery can burn out . If it does, it is an easy fix with a single AA battery that goes in the very top of the umbrella where the solar panel is . I could not be more happy my purchase . I will be sure to check out more products by this company because I know they care about quality and their customers. I am just a regular customer and do not get any compensation for reviews. I really hate buying home goods by mail because it is so difficult to make a decision based on a tiny photo . I am a photo - stylist by trade so I know how the photos taken by professionals are so much better than the reality of the product. This is why I was so shocked at the quality. It is even better better in person .

I must say for the price this umbrella was perfect the lights add a nice look to it in charge by solar power

I have bought several umbrella's over the years and I have to say this is the best one yet. The quality is so much better then the others I have purchased. The solar lighting is bright and very solid. My recommendation is to buy this if you are looking for something like this.
