It might cost you a little more but youll get an umbrella that will last and wont fall apart after just a couple of seasons, and it will be made using quality canvas and rod such as brass or aluminum. The nine or ten foot umbrella is a great size. Its large enough to provide both shade and shelter and to get noticed as a dcor statement. That said if you prefer smaller they are certainly available. Watch for fabric that is fade resistant and treated and make sure metal components have all been spayed. Check for warranties. Installing isnt that difficult either.1. Start by extending the tube until it locks.2. Release the snap lock and then assemble the skin to the umbrella cage.3. Insert the internal mast into the tube.4. Slide the base under the spa and make sure it is up tight against the wall.5. Now slip the umbrella into the base.6. Crank open the umbrella.7. When you arent using it crank the umbrella down.8.
