Outsunny 3(m) Garden Banana Parasol Hanging Cantilever Umbrella with Crank Handle and Cross Base for Outdoor, Sun Shade

Product Information

Stylish Design– The canopy is beautifully neutral and contemporary to suit a variety of garden styles. Please note some larger products are delivered to kerb-side (the street outside your home), it is at the drivers discretion if they can deliver the item to another location on the property. Sitting under a garden parasol doesn’t guarantee sun protection unless it has a specific UPF rating like the CHRISTOW 3m Cantilever Umbrella. Fortunately, the manufacturers have clearly taken the great British weather into account when designing this umbrella as well – made of 220 g polyester it creates decent shade when the sun hits, but is also showerproof for those inevitable cloud bursts. It won’t fade in the sunlight either, which means the contemporary, stylish grey colour remains reliably modern and fresh.

Providing general protection from the sun, this parasol doesn’t have a specific UPF rating; however, it creates standard shade coverage which can still reduce the heat felt from the sun’s rays. It’s also water resistant, so any passing showers will run off the waterproof 180 g polyester canopy without the necessity to dash inside. With a powder coated frame, this piece offers reliability and sturdiness without the risk of rusting or peeling. For added strength, eight ribs connect to the canopy. And to prevent it from blowing inside out, a practical air vent has also been included in the design. Features and Benefits You’ll want to look for a model with UV protection, with a rating of at least UPF 30+. Consider a parasol that offers UPF 50+ if you want increased protection for your family . Most parasol canopies are made from heavyweight polyester, and you should aim for a polyester that is minimum 180 g/m ² . Four-position tilting canopy: Set the garden parasol canopy to different angles - keep protected a way you want. Crank handle to open/close garden umbrella easily.

Sail - a simple way to create shade in the garden by hanging a fabric sail from walls, poles, fences and trees. Great for small plots, but can become troublesome if not fastened properly.

Fabric canopy: 180gsm polyester canopy creates shade, with a top vent to help with trapped wind beneath. movement: Foot pedal moves outdoor parasol canopy to whatever position you want. Easy to control and move. I’ve also included the Sorara Roma Deluxe Parasol as an alternative, as my brother invested in one last year and although it is only a little over a year old, it has proved a great alternative in the same price range as my Purple Leaf Parasol, with a similar level of quality and functionality. What I will say is both of these parasols are very heavy. The bases alone must be 200kg. Let’s just say their not something you want to be physically moving from the patio to the lawn, for example. However, you can do what I do and rotate the parasol 180 degrees from the patio and over the lawn if they are next to each other. Thats what I love about cantilever parasols the ability to be able to rotate them into different positions. The polyester fabric is relatively water resistant, so during light showers it should offer adequate protection – this is particularly useful if the garden parasol is being used to cover outdoor dining tables, bearing in mind the UK’s changeable summer climate. Making sure that the cantilever parasol you are thinking about buying has UPF protection is important. It’s something to look out for especially if you sit outside a lot or have young children.

Outsunny 3m Cantilever Aluminium Frame Outdoor Garden Parasol - Grey - 840-126GY

It’s advisable to store this cantilever parasol away on windy days or if there’s any extreme weather looming. Whilst otherwise strong and well constructed, it can move a lot when things get breezy. So, a little more information about it, this elegant cantilever parasol is available in a variety of colours and sizes. I can confidently say it’s the best one I’ve ever owned. However, it’s worth mentioning that my Jarder Libra 3m parasol is still an excellent, more affordable option, which I also recommend. I continue using my Jarder Libra, which has held up well for nearly four years. That said, the Purple Leaf parasol, being about three times more expensive, is worth every penny for those seeking a premium, commercial-grade cantilever parasol. The parasol keeps you in the shade and protects you from the most harmful of the sun’s rays. It also protects the umbrella stand from sun damage.
