Product Information
Full details
This brown garden parasol is designed for homeowners seeking to create a shaded outdoor space for relaxation and entertainment. Its primary benefit is providing protection from the sun's harmful UV rays and light rain, allowing you to enjoy your garden more comfortably. A key consideration is that it is not fully waterproof and may require additional treatment for heavy rain. The parasol features a durable polyester canopy, a robust support structure, and a convenient crank mechanism for easy operation.

FAQs
What is included with the parasol?
The product includes the garden parasol with its canopy and pole structure. A base is not included and must be purchased separately.
How do I clean the parasol fabric?
You can clean the polyester fabric with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before closing or storing.
Is this parasol waterproof?
The parasol is made from water-resistant polyester and can provide protection from light rain. However, it is not 100% waterproof. For better protection during heavier rainfall, we recommend using a waterproofing spray.
What are the dimensions of the parasol?
The dimensions are H:235 x W:269 x D:269 cm, providing a square shaded area of 269 x 269 cm.
What is the weight of the parasol?
The parasol weighs 13.4 kg. A suitable and sturdy base is required to ensure stability.
Can children use this parasol for playing?
No, this product is not a toy. Children should not use it for playing or climbing to ensure their safety and prevent damage to the parasol.
How do I assemble the parasol?
Assembly is required. Please refer to the included instructions for detailed steps on how to connect the pole and ribs and set up the parasol with your base.
Troubleshooting
Parasol is difficult to open or close.
Ensure the crank mechanism is clean and free of debris. Check that the canopy is not snagged on any objects. Lubricate the crank mechanism lightly if necessary.
Parasol canopy seems loose or sags.
Verify that all support ribs are properly attached and extended. Check that the fabric is evenly distributed. If the issue persists, inspect the fabric for tears.
Parasol feels unstable in light wind.
Ensure the parasol is placed in a heavy and stable base. Check that the pole is securely fastened within the base clamp. Consider using a heavier base or securing the existing base.
Water is pooling on the canopy.
Gently tilt the parasol to allow water to run off. Ensure the parasol is not sagging. For persistent pooling, consider applying a waterproofing spray to maintain fabric tension and water repellency.
