Best Choice Products 10ft Solar Polyester LED Lighted Patio Umbrella w/Tilt Adjustment and UV-Resistant Fabric - Tan

Works great, easy to set up. Brightness is not very bright, but sets a nice ambiance.

This is a lovely, well-built patio umbrella. The pole is made of thick metal. The canvas fabric at the top is heavy and durable. Although I didn't initially care about them, the solar LED lights are a nice touch. They help light up the patio just enough at the end of the day. 10' diameter is a great size. Not too big, but big enough to block out a good amount of sun. Offering some lovely, comfortable shade to enjoy on a hot summer day. The buttons and crank are very user-friendly. I have my 10-year-old son operate it most of the time. Not to mention the price is fantastic. This umbrella is about $50 less than anything else I've seen of similar size and features.

Love our umbrella! Light weight but sturdy. The Red color looks great in our yard. Easy to use and the lighting is just enough, not too bright. Great choice at a great price.

Purchased this umbrella in 2023 and overall, have been satisfied with it. The 10 foot wide canopy is perfect for our large dining table set. The weight is heavy enough but be sure to lock it down with the stand screw because the 10 foot span makes a great sail..... The cranking mechanism has held up well and the tilt mechanism is easy enough to use. Tilting isn't as easy to release and return to upright as other umbrellas we have, but to be fair, this one is also larger so we assume that's the nature of the umbrella. The frame has integral LED lights along each spine and a built-in switch on the pole. The system works fine, I but I was a little disappointed in the brightness. Its poor in my opinion but friends have commented that not being so bright is more desirable so go figure. The solar device is a twist-on type with a rechargeable battery. The description stated the charge was good for 4-5 hours but ours lasted closer to two. I swapped the battery with a name-brand rechargeable and now the lights stay on closer to five hours. I did have a couple of instances where the lights just wouldn't turn on at all, even on full charge. I eventually realized it was whenever I had the canopy tilted. I don't know why that might effect things but one other reviewer commented on this issue but it doesn't happen every time and if I do lose the lights, it's not a big deal to me. One thing I do not like is how quickly the canopy faded. The description indicated the material was virtually fade resistant so we purchased a red one and it looked great for a month or so but by the end of the summer, it had faded to a dull "pink". I rated it a four for that reason. Otherwise, I still like the umbrella and given that our other umbrellas also fade, it doesn't bother me too much. If I have to replace the canopy, I'll order grey or tan.

My patio has almost no shade, and sitting at the patio table when the sun is out can get fairly brutal. The table is glass, and aside from the sun roasting you from overhead, the reflected light from the table top is enough to blind you.I didn't expect much from this umbrella when I bought it. I'd had a couple of others in the past and they tend to last 2 or 3 years before the UV destroys the fabric. If the UV doesn't get them, surprise gusts of wind will bend them into exciting new shapes. However, in the 4 years I've owned it, this has been the best patio umbrella I've had so far. Here are the high and low points:The good:-The umbrella opens using a crank mechanism, which pulls a cord that opens up all the arms. After oiling the crank, it operates very smoothly. I didn't expect the cord to last this long but it has and it shows no signs of fraying. You can set it to whatever opening you want and it stays in place until you decide to close the umbrella back up. Very well done.-The tilt mechanism allows me to angle the umbrella to block the sun as it rises in the morning. This means that if the weather is nice I get to have breakfast outside with the dogs without getting hit with a ton of direct sunlight. I didn't know I wanted this feature until I had it. Again, I recommend oiling the pivot and the button that locks it in place. Doing so made operation a lot smoother. I used regular household oil similar to 3 in 1 for this and it works fine.-LED lights inside the umbrella are nice to have. I'm not sure they're bright enough to read by but it's nice to have the option to switch them on at night. They recharge with a small solar panel that's built into the top of the umbrella and are maintenance-free.-The umbrella is surprisingly durable. On mine, one of the arms is bent after a gust of wind launched it into the air and then smashed it into the ground. Yep, I forgot to close it again. Unfortunately this little adventure destroyed the solar panel at the top of the umbrella so it no longer charges the batteries and the LEDs no longer work, but the umbrella itself still opens and closes fine and works well. The color has faded quite a bit from the sunlight but it has faded evenly and the fabric is still intact. I'm honestly surprised at the level of abuse it has endured.The bad:-The ONLY bad thing I can say about this umbrella is that the crank is so high up on the main shaft that it's awkward to reach under the closed umbrella to open it. Same thing with closing it-- you end up practically laying on the table and reaching awkwardly up to crank it open or shut. You can sort of get around this by lifting up the arms to get them out of the way and then turning the crank to put tension on the cable, but it always feels like I'm going to bend one of the arms that way.Overall this umbrella has proven to be way more durable and usable than I would have thought. The LEDs are nice to have but not a deal maker/breaker for me, but the quality has been way better than expected. When it comes time to replace it (I'm thinking it will at least last another summer, perhaps longer) I will probably buy another one just like it. This time I'll try to remember to close it during a storm.

There is very little assembly for this attractive and well-made umbrella. It’s very heavy, though, so two of us put it up. I’m not sure I like the tilt feature, but maybe if I do it a few times I’ll get better at that. The lights work, and that’s a great feature for people who use it after dark. I keep it closed unless I’m outside needing it for shade. We purchased a base that’s recommended for a maximum 9’ umbrella, and this one is 10’. I couldn’t find any other base I liked. So, another reason I don’t leave it open when I’m not under it is because I’m worried a gust of wind will tip it over. We might purchase another umbrella just like this, or at least from the same manufacturer, for a table we have on our patio. We’re very well satisfied.

Very reasonably priced. Good quality and a nice size. So far seems to be very durable. The lights are bright enough to play family games on the dark Would definitely recommend.
