Ace Evert Market Umbrella, Push Button Tilt, 9 ft, Polyester, Beige

(Namely, a couple of months.) The umbrella's arms aren't as sturdy as you might expect. A strong gust, the umbrella topples, the arms snap.Edit: Of the three arms that snapped on mine, all broke at essentially the same point - the riveted connection where the main arms meet the supporting arms. Perhaps something about this joint needs to be improved. Or perhaps one should just consider this a lightweight item and not suitable for windy conditions.

Liked the rating.....loved the size and that it tilts...prefect color ...just love all about this..We live in the Texas Panhandle and have Very strong winds..had no problems...I would recomend that it had a strap t tie around so when down it doesn't flop in wind

Still works well after even after several years. Wind down in high winds. the Santa Ana wind blow pretty strong here in So. Cal

I like the umbrella, but I thought it had a tie down so that a gust of wind doesn't take it off my deck!

It is just what we wanted and needed. It matches great with our patio set and it appears to weather well.

After some assembly issues the umbrella works fine.I had to file the the inner tube to get it into the outside tube. The plasic ring that covers the tube joint was cracked.

We had an Ace Evert umbrella that lasted 4 years, so we replaced it with this one (another ace evert). But unfortunately we bought the polyester one rather than the Olefin one, like we had in the past. Well, the polyester version got black mold all over it after 5 weeks. And it wasn't nearly as thick as the Olefin material, so you could see leaves through it as well as the mold. The push button tilt does work well. Amazon is allowing us to return this one.
