Four-corner shade from an 8 x 8 in offset square canopy creates a covered zone for dining tables, lounge chairs, or BBQ areas while keeping the support pole off to the side. The double-tier polyester canopy and top air vent promote airflow so heat and wind can escape for a cooler seating area. A crank lift opens and closes the umbrella smoothly, and a simple locking mechanism allows 360° rotation to track the sun. Eight heavy-duty metal ribs support the canopy, while a weighted cross base with two sandbags holds up to 116 lbs for added stability.
