Support your patio umbrella with this Parnell Round Plastic Free Standing Umbrella Base. The steel-lined pole insert and ground-bolting capabilities add strength to this well-constructed base. Designed to withstand strong winds, this base pairs perfectly with a variety of pole diameters with the two different sized inserts to choose from. With the easy-fill spout and easy assembly, you will be worry-free and enjoy your outdoor space in a matter of minutes.
The base is pretty sturdy. It arrived quickly. I like the look of it. I filled with water, but it is recommended to fill with sand. I have yet to find play sand in my neighbourhood - they are also hot commodities these days due to the pandemic, so it's fine for now with water. Plus, we do not put up the umbrella when it gets a little windy.
Unfortunately the packaged was missing a screw that was meant to secure the bottom of the base with the centre steel pole for more stability. Contacted Wayfair, they sent me a replacement and it arrived pretty quickly as well, which is a bonus since we have absolutely no shaded area in our backyard.. Elsie. Maple, ON. Sat Jul 25 2020
