FAQs

Does this parasol come with a base?

No, the parasol base is sold separately. You will need to purchase a compatible base to secure the parasol.

What is the diameter of the parasol pole?

The parasol pole has a diameter of 3.5cm.

How do I adjust the tilt of the parasol?

The parasol features a push-button tilting mechanism. Simply press the button and adjust the canopy to your desired angle, up to 30°.

Is the canopy fabric waterproof?

The canopy is made from 160gsm fabric and is rated as water-resistant, offering protection from light rain but is not fully waterproof for heavy downpours.

What is the UPF rating of the fabric?

The fabric is rated UPF50+, providing excellent protection against harmful UV rays.

How should I clean the parasol canopy?

Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Rinse and allow to air dry completely before storing.

Can this parasol be used in windy conditions?

The parasol includes integrated air vents to help manage wind. However, it is designed for moderate conditions. For safety, close the parasol during strong winds.

Troubleshooting

Parasol is difficult to open or close.

Ensure the hand crank mechanism is clear of debris. Check that the pole is fully seated in the base and that no obstructions are present within the crank mechanism.

Parasol feels unstable in light wind.

Verify that the parasol base is sufficiently heavy and stable. Check that the canopy is fully closed and secured. Ensure air vents are open to allow wind to pass through.

Canopy fabric has stains or mildew.

Gently clean the fabric with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely before closing. For mildew, a solution of equal parts water and white vinegar can be effective.

Tilting mechanism is stiff.

Check the push-button for any visible obstructions. Ensure the canopy is fully open before attempting to tilt. A light application of a silicone-based lubricant may help if the mechanism is dry, but use sparingly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Easy to operate with a hand crank and tilting feature.
Provides excellent sun protection with UPF50+ rated fabric.
Durable and water-resistant canopy material.
Designed with air vents for improved wind resistance.
Comes with a carry bag for easy storage and transport.

Cons

Requires a separate parasol base (not included) for stability.
The 3.5cm steel pole may require specific base types.
Color might fade over extended, intense sun exposure (typical for outdoor fabrics).
Tilting mechanism could be a point of wear over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up, insert the 3.5cm steel pole into a compatible parasol base (sold separately). Ensure the base is stable and heavy enough to support the parasol, especially in windy conditions. Use the hand crank to fully open the canopy. Once open, use the push-button mechanism to adjust the tilt angle as needed.

Compatibility: This parasol is designed with a 3.5cm diameter pole, which fits most standard parasol bases. Always ensure your chosen base is suitable for the pole size and provides adequate weight for stability.

Care: To clean the canopy, use a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners or high-pressure washing, which can damage the fabric. Allow the parasol to dry completely before closing and storing it in its carry bag to prevent mildew. During prolonged periods of non-use or adverse weather, it is recommended to store the parasol indoors.
