Things to Consider
• If you are using the umbrella with a table, make sure the hole is large enough to accomodate the umbrella's pole diameter.
• A base is required for most umbrellas - simply placing an umbrella in a hole in your table will not especially if there's any wind.
• Not all patio umbrellas are created equal! There are a variety of fabrics, frame materials, lift methods, tilt features, and canopy styles. Our Patio Umbrella Buying Guide provides useful information about all of your options.
