FBFB: I am one year late in writing this review, but better late than never. Attached are a couple of photos so you can see how it looks after a little over a year, still looks great and lights are still working. I stored the umbrella over the winter in the garage, this summer came, opened it up and all was well, then one day, I had a little issue with the umbrella not opening all the way fully. I contacted C-Hopetree, acknowledging that I was well outside of the Amazon return policy. They did not have to respond, but much to my surprise, not only did they respond, they sent very easy to follow instructions on how to get the umbrella back in a fully opened position. I had several email communications with them and really appreciate the fact that they were there "after the sale" a year and half "after the sale"- I am planning a pool remodel this fall, so time for a new C-Hopetree solar powered umbrella - maybe Red this time.

jaxgramma: The umbrella arrived quickly and in good condition. Easy to set up, and I made sure the battery was plugged in as reminded by many reviewers. I really like the options of having either the center light or the rib lights on, or both. It makes the umbrella more versatile - not just for use in the sun during the day, but also in the evening. I purchased this as an addition to my patio to cover a small seating area by the pool that stays in the sun most of the day. Works great. Perfect size. I purchased the teal and it is a very pretty color complementing the pool area and other accents I have. I love the crank tilt feature - I have always had a challenge with the "regular" tilt of umbrellas, and the crank feature makes it super easy. It has a velcro strap to help keep it closed when down, which, in my opinion, makes it look tidier. Other reviewers have mentioned it not seeming sturdy enough and to not use it in any breeze; however, it was up with a light breeze blowing without any issues. I do have it in an umbrella side table, not just a stand, so that may have helped it to be more stable as well. It seems sturdy enough - we will see how long it lasts. ...

Amazon Customer: I ordered two of the umbrellas. I absolutely love the blue color and the bright Solar LED lights. The light in the middle of the umbrella even adds an extra touch. I had a July 4th party and several people asked where I bought these umbrellas. They are more affordable than the ones at Lowe's and Home Depot and are definitely high quality. About a week after the 4th party, there was a storm that came through and it broke one of my lovely umbrellas. It was really my fault because I should have taken the umbrellas down, just to be on the safe side. The next day I contacted C-Hopetree just to see what could be done. I sent some pics to them to see if they could fix it. They couldn't so they offered to ship me another one. I couldn't get the blue one that I wanted because they were out-of-stock but they sent me a beige one. I love that one too. I would definitely recommend the umbrellas. They are good quality and the colors are nice. Plus, the C-Hopetree customer service team is above and beyond many. Thank you again for helping me make my pool area beautiful. :) I will buy from C-Hopetree again!

Fishhead: Sturdy, holding up well to our harsh spring winds. Nice looking, the fabric on the umbrella is nicely colored, seems well made, and durable. Ours arrived with one small light not working, though the impact to the lighting is minimal, and I chose not to return it for a replacement. I deducted one star for that, though the seller was quite responsive, and I think it would have been no problem to quickly get a replacement if I had felt strongly enough to do it. Otherwise, I would've given this item five stars. The lights charge quickly, even in indirect light or on very cloudy days, and the lights stay bright, even if left on all night. Does not seem to attract a ton of bugs surprisingly (though moths do like the center light). The lights are so convenient, and I really like the option to use either the small lights alone, the brighter central light alone, or both together. The lights together are bright enough to read under, or play cards. Or just use the smaller lights for ambiance and enough light to navigate when moving about on the patio. So great to not have an electric cord to trip over! It has a sturdy, wide, velcro strap for securing it when...
