This is a very cheap product. I've only used it for a month and its now broken. The cap that sits on the bolt for tightening has a crack. Why? Because its made of plastic, this is the most important part of the bracket, why would you make it of plastic and not metal?Another thing, the rod of the umbrella that goes in the bracket never seems to stay tight. So whenever you have the umbrella set on an angle, it loosens and spins!Don't waste your money!

I bought this umbrella for my husband to put on his beach chair when we go to the beach. He loves it! It easily screws on to the chair and gives him plenty of shade. it also comes with a carrying case which the umbrella slides into and has a strap to place it over your shoulder. We both highly recommend it!
