This 9ft umbrella features 8 fiberglass ribs and a 1.5"" steel pole for reliable support. Fiberglass offers better flexibility, and rust resistance than metal ribs. A 9 foot canopy provides wide shade for patios, decks, poolside, gardens, or backyards, with a striped fringe boho design. A built in crank handle allows smooth opening and closing close in strong winds for safety. Push button tilt adjusts the angle as the sun moves. Base not included-use with a compatible weighted base. Ideal for those seeking a durable, lightweight, easy to operate umbrella with flexible tilt and wide shade coverage.
