[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very heavy duty umbrella stand. I love how easy it is to roll around on the wheels. It was super easy to put together and I think it will last a long time.

    Durable and stable for your best patio life!
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a true blue 75lb patio umbrella base. It is extremely stable and durable, even where I live - on the West Coast of California. We get a lot of wind and rain, but this umbrella isn't going anywhere.

      Heavy and sturdy
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. I live in a windy area and I'm in need of a sturdy umbrella base for my 9 ft patio umbrella. This umbrella base is definitely heavy and sturdy enough. I actually needed help to move it but it does comes with wheels where you can tilt and roll. I like how the wheels are not sticking out and it's low profile. Overall the shape and design of the umbrella base is simple and classic. No fancy designs. The painting is nice right now and I hope it will stay with all the outdoor elements over time. It says it can hold umbrella up to 11 ft which is great because I may upgrade my umbrella soon.

        I totally recommend this product
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great product. Can’t wait to use it. It’s very heavy so it’s a best base for the heaviest umbrella. Very compact. Great for the summers. I recommend it

          Bought in Sept 2021, Base snapped off today! SCAM!
          californiaumbrella.com/en/terms-of-sales#warranty I called California Umbrella and hey said I voided my warranty due to moving the stand improperly Or I am out of the warranty window which again MEANS THEY KNOW THIS WILL HAPPEN! Two small welds hold the pipe to the base! Also, the bottom is SEALED so you can't just flip it over and figure out a way to make this work again. This company knew this would happen and set it up to fail and steal your money. This company makes me sick.

          Hello, thank you for your review of our base. In regards to our warranty, if this stand was pulled on by the base tube this is voiding the warranty as stated on the base itself. The base pole is designed to hold the umbrella pole. Pulling down on the base tube can result in damaging the interior threading of the base pole and causing the umbrella to tilt or not sit right. It is highly recommended to not use the pole to tilt the base rather to manual tilt the base onto the wheels. Please let us know if you have anymore concerns or questions. Once again we thank you for your review.

            Excellent base
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This umbrella base is built to last. I looks great and has done well in the current cold sometimes wet weather. I live in California and during the summer it gets to be very hot. It is nice to be able to sit out in the yard under an umbrella while my little one plays. This is perfect because you can use the knob to make sure your umbrella is secured in place. There is no chance your umbrella will get blown over with a 75 pound base. It has wheels on one side so you can tip it up and move it to wherever you want it to be. No more tipped over umbrella.

              Disappointment
              Very disappointed in this product. It arrived filthy in the box, had a layer of dust over the entire base. The wheels are useless and don't work. This is not very mobile at all. There is a sticker on the base that instructs you to not use the pole insert to lean back or forward to move it. It asks you to put your hands under the base to lift up onto the wheels. This is practically impossible if you have an umbrella in it, or without. I returned it.

              Hello, thank you for reaching out to us regarding this base. It is not recommended to use the pole to tilt this base back as this will cause the internal threads to be damaged or loosen this base pole. The pole is intended to be used as a holder for the umbrella. Once the base is tilted to onto the wheels this base is easy to move and place in your desired position.

              Dont waste your money on this
              I purchased 2 of these Jan 2022 and both of the bases, where the pole of the umbrella inserts, leans and there is no way to fix this. Now I have 2 leaning umbrellas that dont look good.

              Hello Kmfthea, thank you for your feedback on our base. If possible would you be able to send us an image to our service team so we may see this issues and attempt to remedy it. Please submit the images to our service team on our California umbrella website, californiaumbrella.com. Thank you.
                The weight is good but the screw in connection for the post is questionable and the cheap plastic ring on top to tighten the umbrella cracked on day 2.

                Sturdy, does the job of holding our 9' umbrella steady. The inability to tilt it with the post (would void the warranty) is a drawback so strong hands and fingers are needed to lift it off the ground in order to engage the wheels - others have commented on this. But we like the plastic cover/coating on the stand that wasn't mentioned in the marketing materials - it protects the base from bird poop and water so rusting shouldn't be an issue.

                    Great sturdy stand
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This umbrella stand is very sturdy and heavy, which means it is really good! Your umbrella will not get blown over if it’s in this stand! It has wheels which make it much easier to move. I definitely recommend it, strong sturdy and easy to move when needed.

                      Sturdy base
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This base is super heavy and sturdy and will hold up any umbrella you decide to put in it. I struggled with moving the base because it is so heavy, which makes sense since it is made of concrete. The bronze base color matches any umbrella color.

                        unable to move it
                        unless you have skinny fingers you are not going to roll it

                        Nope
                        It won’t blow over & it does stand up to wind, however if you ever plan to move it go ahead & just realize it’s going to be broken. We even rewelded the holder (after it broke off) & now the bottom is coming off. Not easy to move at all.

                          It was the stand recommend for the umbrella I bought. The umbrella wobbled too much so had to use a smaller umbrella with the stand. Disappointed
