Product Information

Full details

This Harbour Housewares Sun Parasol is designed for homeowners and hosts looking to create a stylish and shaded outdoor gathering space. Its primary benefit is providing substantial shade (nearly 3m diameter) and a degree of water repellency for garden parties or relaxation, though the included base, while functional, might require additional weighting for very windy conditions. This parasol features a durable hardwood frame, a convenient pulley system with multiple open positions, and a water-repellent polyester canvas, all supported by a 12kg concrete-filled base.

Is the canvas waterproof?

The polyester canvas is water-repellent, offering protection from light rain. It is not designed for heavy downpours.

What is the weight of the included base?

The included base is filled with 12kg of concrete for stability.

How many open positions does the parasol have?

The parasol offers three adjustable open positions, controlled by the pulley system.

What material is the frame made of?

The frame is constructed from hard wood.

What is the warranty period for this parasol?

The parasol comes with a 2-year guarantee.

Can I use this parasol in strong winds?

While the 12kg base provides good stability, it is not recommended to use the parasol in strong winds. For safety, close and secure the parasol during high winds.

Troubleshooting

Parasol is unstable in wind

Ensure the parasol is fully opened and locked in one of its three positions. For increased stability, consider adding extra weight to the base or securing it further.

Pulley system is stiff or difficult to operate

Check for any obstructions in the pulley mechanism. Lubricate the rope and pulley wheels with a silicone-based spray if necessary. Ensure the canopy fabric is not caught.

Canvas has developed a mild stain

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely.

Wood shows signs of weathering

Clean the wood with a damp cloth. For protection, consider applying a suitable wood treatment or sealant annually, following product instructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a generous shaded area of nearly 3 meters in diameter.
  • Easy to open and adjust with a simple pulley system.
  • Water-repellent canvas offers protection from light showers.
  • Sturdy hardwood frame and a substantial concrete-filled base for stability.
  • Attractive design with natural wood and gold accents.

Cons

  • The 12kg base may require additional weighting in gusty winds.
  • Two-piece frame construction might be less robust than a single-piece pole in extreme conditions.
  • Color options for the canvas are limited to cream and green (this guide focuses on green).
  • Requires assembly and proper securing to the base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Assemble the two-piece hardwood frame by connecting the sections.
  2. Insert the pole into the provided concrete-filled base.
  3. Ensure the pole is securely fixed and the parasol canopy is properly attached.
  4. Use the pulley system to open the parasol.

Compatibility:

  • The parasol is designed to fit standard parasol bases, but this set includes a specifically matched 12kg concrete-filled base.
  • Ensure the base is placed on a stable, level surface.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Canvas: Wipe the polyester canvas with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow it to dry completely before closing.
  • Wood Frame: Clean the hardwood frame with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Storage: During strong winds, heavy rain, or the off-season, close the parasol and store it in a dry place to prolong its lifespan. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mold or mildew.
  • Base Maintenance: Keep the base clean and dry.
