Great buy for the money
This is a very large umbrella. For the price you can't beat it. It has a metal pole instead of wood which is great and should last much longer. I'm really please with this and the color is so rich. It looks great on my patio. Easy to open and close.

Disapointed
This umbrella looked great "on paper: It came in a couple of days after ordering. The shipping cost was way too high. When all merchants are shipping for free or for a very nominal fee this was over $20 to ship. (I just ordered an entire baby crib and the shipping was $9) Would have still beeen worth it if the umbrella was a good buy--However the umbrella has a cheap rope pulley system to
raise up an down several screws were missing and the main screw was warped and didn't fit. We aren't paying ro ship it back-so we are stuck with it. You would be wiser to pay more and get something better made and better quality.

cheap thrills
This umbrella looks great! It even has a crank! I have it
alongside a much more expensive umbrella and it holds it's own.
It doesn't absorb rainwater so when you close it you might
get a wet arm! For the money this is a winner!

GREAT SERVICE
My order was here before I had time to realize I ordered it (fast service). I like the umbrella seems solid love the color - it is bright lime green brighter than I expected but very pretty and I am very satisfied with everything. Good buy!!

Not worth it!
I was so disappointed with this umbrella. I know its a great price but I was at least expecting it to work. The umbrella was made mostly of plastic and when I put it up to use it it broke! I am not sure if mine was defective but it is not worth purchasing regardless. I did get a refund without any trouble so I am happy about that! This was the only piece of the set that was not good. Everything else is great.

9' outdoor square umbrella
Item received in excellent condition. Unbenounced to me the pole diameter was 2" whereas standard pole sizes are 1 1/2" or less. It did not fit into the hole of my patio table and had to be modified.

Terrible
We ordered two of these umbrellas. First the color is completely off - they're actually grey. Second they are cheaply made using composite wood not real wood. One of the umbrellas just snapped in half - literally. It was closed and it was slightly windy outside. I'm hoping to return these for a full refund.

Great Umbrella
We've had this umbrella for about 2 years now and it's held up beautifully. It stays outside all year round (we don't get snow - and lately we don't get rain either but I digress). We do keep the cover on it when we're not using it. The cover has faded but it's still in good shape. My kids love to make it go up and down.

The Best Shade You Could Ever Find
The Oxford Garden 9' market umbrella outshades all others. The attention to detail is incredible. All materials...the poly-canvas the shorea wood and the real brass fittings are top quality. The umbrella is designed with 8 ribs which provides more strength. You won't have to worry about it breaking on a windy day. The use of a two pulley system makes it so easy to raise and lower the umbrella. I poured over similar umbrellas on auctions sites that were a third of the price but kept
coming back to the Oxford Garden. I even contacted the manufacturer before my purchase. They were right on target with the description of the quality of their product. I live in a resort area. As a final test before my purchase I visited a local resort. They had two similar market umbrellas around the pool which were purchased at a local discount retailer for a third of the price. After only one season both had broken ribs that were rigged with aluminum tubing. The wood was cracking and the finish was all but gone. The sectioned pole was loose and wobbly. I could not be happier with my purchase.More detail ...

Super Fast Shipping
Very fast shipping. I am impressed! Umbrella is OK nothing special but very nice for the money. I have a vacation rental and we go through a lot of umbrellas: guests do not close the umbrellas when they leave a burst of wind and umbrella snaps in half! I am so glad I can find a regular 9 ft umbrella for a very cheap price. Makes it almost disposable! I am going to order a bunch of these keep them in storage and not worry about breakage so much. Thanks Amazon!
