A standard market umbrella runs its mast up through the middle of the table. The centre seat becomes the worst seat, plates get shuffled around the post, and by late afternoon the shade has slid off onto the lawn.

The post sits to one side and a curved arm carries the canopy 6.43 feet out over the seating. Step on the pedal at the base, hold the post and the shade turns a full circle to follow the sun, and the vertical adjuster tips it down when the light comes in low.

Eight steel ribs on a curved arm

The studio shot shows the shape you are buying. A curved aluminum arm carries the canopy out to one side, eight rustproof steel ribs hold the 10 foot cover open, and a flat cross base sits at the foot. Small LED beads follow each rib, and the solar panel is fitted at the top of the arm where it collects light all day.

Shade that clears the table top

Parked beside a courtyard dining set, the arm swings the canopy out over the table and all four chairs. The table top stays clear for food because nothing rises through the middle of it, and the seats are all equally good. The base stands on the paving a step back from the nearest chair.

After dark on the deck

This is what the panel on top is for. Two dozen small lights trace the ribs and drop a soft white glow over the table, with no cord running back to the house. A switch on the post turns them on when you want them, so they are not burning through the charge every evening you are indoors.

Folded down when the wind picks up

Closed, it drops to a slim column against the post, which is where it should be any time the forecast turns. The crank winds it down in a few turns. Come October, let the canopy dry right through before it goes into storage, because fabric packed away damp is what starts mildew.

Eight steel ribs carry the 10 foot canopy on a powder-coated aluminum post that resists rust and scratching.

Twenty four LEDs run the length of the ribs, charged by the panel on top of the arm. No outlet and no cord.

Press the pedal at the base, hold the post and turn. The canopy swings right around while the base stays where it is.

A separate adjuster on the post drops the canopy on one side, which is what you want against low evening sun.

A hand crank raises and lowers the cover, so nobody is wrestling wet fabric overhead.

Two vents at the crown let gusts pass through the canopy instead of pressing against the whole of it.

Canopy 10.00 ft, arm reach 6.43 ft, 6.72 ft under the rim, 8.03 ft overall, cross base 3.28 ft square.

No weighted base in the box. A side post design puts its load off centre, so size the base generously.

With nothing standing in the middle, the canopy drops over a pair of loungers or a sofa group and leaves the deck clear underneath.

Plenty of outdoor tables have a solid top. This shades one without anybody drilling a hole through the middle of it.

The solar lights keep the table usable after sunset without an extension cord running across the patio.

What we stand behind

• Every measurement here comes off this product's own dimension drawing, not a rounded guess.
• No UPF rating is published for this canopy, so we do not claim one.
• Ships from our United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
• 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

Does a weighted base come with it?

No. This listing is the frame and canopy only, which is what the title means by without weight base. Because the canopy hangs off to one side, a side post umbrella needs considerably more ballast than a centre-pole one of the same width, so buy the base for the style rather than for the canopy size.

How much does a 10 foot canopy cover, and how much headroom is there?

The cover measures 10.00 feet across and the arm reaches 6.43 feet out from the post, so the shaded circle sits beside the stand rather than around it. Underneath, the rim is 6.72 feet off the ground and the crown 8.03 feet, which is enough to walk under at the centre but low enough at the edge that a tall guest will duck. Outdoor furniture size guides line a 10 foot canopy up with a round table of about 62 inches, seating roughly six, and leave a little overhang so the shade still lands on the seats as the sun moves.

Is it 24 lights or 32?

Twenty four. The specification list and the product description paragraph both give 24 LED lights, and that is the figure we carry. A 32 appears once in the older title text and was not carried forward.

Can it live outside all winter?

It is built for outdoor use, but Canadian storage guides are consistent that snow load and weeks of damp are what finish a canopy off. Close it, let the fabric dry right through, wipe the post and store it somewhere dry for the season.
