Yeah, I love this umbrella. Its well/made and easy to operate and assemble. However, do not buy it without the matching base unless youre going to bolt it to your patio or deck. When this thing is open, it catches the wind like a sail and must be securely anchored or it will blow away. If youre planning to plunk it down on cement, also plan on buying the matching base / think of it as an essential part of the umbrella. Think of it as a 600 purchase. Dont even think about buying any other base / the matching base is attractive (in a way) and works perfect.
