SONGMICS Cantilever Garden Parasol with Solar-Powered LED Lights, 3 m Banana Patio Umbrella with Base, Crank for Opening Closing, Sunshade with Protection UPF 50+, Taupe GPU118K01

Great deal, needs a weight though unless can screw into floor. Very nice looking, large coverage, lights make it look really pretty.

Easy to put together, sturdy and the lights look great. Will need weights as obviously top heavy. Looking forward to spending time in the garden hopefully with some warm summer nights!

Slightly awkward to erect but eventually figured it out and it does appear to be very well made despite some naysayers! You definitely need to use a sandbag ( possibly two if you’re in a windy spot) unless you’re bolting it into a solid concrete base ( which I didn’t have). I used builders sand after researching which is cheapest and all you need. Finally you need to be tall ( or use a step of some sort) to wind/ unwind the canopy). I’m just over 6 feet tall and am only just able to reach it comfortably. The LEDs are a nice decorative touch but not really suitable if you want to read, etc., so you’ll need something else if more light is required.

Quality and size is good and the lights work well although it is very unstable when open with out any weight on the base so is virtually un-useable unless you either purchase the base weights or have some heavy slabs ready.

Really lovely parasol and easy to put together. Feels well made. Will definitely need heavy weights to secure but feels quite sturdy and easy to put away if there is bad weather.

After 3months of use last year it was stored in garage until 3days ago and the solar lights do not work it is not damaged and all cables in tact solar lights tend to last between 2/5 years depending on usage and weather damageIt was good when it worked but knowing what I know now it's not worth it shame.The quality of umbrella is amazing and frame work sturdy true to other reviews a slight gust and it flaps if not drilled or weighted it would fall down and damage

These things are brilliant, but you need to make sure you have the weights for the stand base, else this thing will be face down on your patio in seconds.Once you get past that, the shade it provides is brilliant, as you'd expect for a 3 meter umbrella!! the lights are a nice touch for night time usage, which is surprisingly good with a heat source underneath, we had a firepit, it actually retained a good amount of heat.

Brilliant parasol perfect for summer easy to set up and very large really impressive
