Product Information
Full details
The Sweeek Offset Round Parasol 350cm is designed for homeowners and garden enthusiasts looking to create a expansive, shaded retreat on a patio or terrace. Its primary benefit is the 350cm octagonal canopy that provides significant coverage, coupled with an offset design that maximizes usable floor space beneath. However, prospective buyers should note that while a cross-shaped base is included, ballast slabs are not provided and are essential for safely securing the structure against wind.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Does this parasol come with the base weights?
No, the cross-shaped base is included, but the heavy slabs required to weigh it down are sold separately.
Can I leave this outside all year round?
It is recommended to store the parasol in a dry place or use a protective waterproof cover during winter months to extend its lifespan.
How do I secure the base to the ground?
You can either use heavy weights (slabs) on the cross-base or screw the base frame directly into a solid wooden deck or concrete patio using appropriate bolts.
What is the diameter of the pole?
The pole has a diameter of 48mm.
Is the fabric machine washable?
No, the fabric should be cleaned while attached to the frame using a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
Troubleshooting
The canopy is difficult to open or close.
Check the crank mechanism for debris and ensure the ribs are not tangled in the fabric. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the hinges if movement is stiff.
The parasol wobbles during light wind.
The base is likely not weighted enough. Ensure you have added the correct number of heavy concrete ballast slabs to the cross-base.
Water is pooling on the fabric.
Ensure the parasol is fully opened and the tension is set correctly via the crank. If water continues to pool, clear any obstructions from the top vent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly requires basic tools to attach the frame to the cross-base. The pole has a diameter of 48mm, so ensure any additional mounting hardware is compatible with this size.
Care Instructions:
- Always close the parasol when not in use or during high winds.
- If the canopy gets wet, allow it to dry completely in the open position before folding to prevent mold and mildew growth.
- Clean the fabric using a soft brush and mild soapy water, avoiding harsh chemicals.
- Periodically check the bolts on the steel frame to ensure they remain tight and free of rust.
