Review on FRUITEAM Plastic Umbrella Base Stand - Fillable, 46.3 lb Water Table Patio Umbrella Base - Weighted, Heavy Duty Outdoor Patio Market Umbrella Stands for Lawn, Garden, Pool (Black, Rattan Weave) by Andrew Mclemore

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Nice idea, but can't withstand softening on sunny days

A+ for concept, D- for practicality. The idea of filling the base stand with water made sense to me. This unit even has little rollers on one side to help move it around. The problem is that when exposed to sunlight, the base stand material (plastic) gets soft as it get warmer outside and cannot support a standard umbrella upright. It's pretty useless.

Pros
  • Works fine but no plug for where the water goes stuffed it with foil for now.
Cons
  • Product didn't come with the plug to keep your water and sand inside. Had to retro fit my own plug.
