Full details

The OHS Palm Print Parasol Umbrella is designed for homeowners and outdoor enthusiasts looking to add a tropical flair and essential sun protection to their garden, patio, or balcony. Its key benefit is providing generous, stylish shade with a vibrant palm leaf print. A potential caveat is that its 1.8-meter diameter is best suited for small to medium-sized outdoor areas. This parasol features a durable, weather-resistant polyester canopy, a sturdy steel pole for stability, and UV-resistant fabric to shield you from the sun.

Troubleshooting

Parasol won't stay open

Check if the canopy has fully extended and if the locking mechanism is engaged properly. Ensure the parasol is securely fixed in its base.

Canopy feels flimsy in the wind

Verify that the parasol base is heavy and stable enough. Ensure the parasol is closed during excessively windy conditions.

Water is pooling on the canopy

Slight tilting of the parasol can help water run off. Ensure the canopy is fully taut. For heavy rain, it's best to close and store the parasol.

Difficulty extending or retracting the canopy

Check for any obstructions or twists in the fabric. Ensure the pole is clean and free of debris. Lubricate moving parts sparingly if needed.
