Will these fit on an umbrella base? I am on the ocean and the storm this week knocked the umbrella over though I had out rocks on the base.

They go around the legs of a pop up tent , my tent has been up for about 5 weeks now and has not moved and I live on long island . The bags are good at what they do, which is hold the tent in place. Hope that answers your question.

I guess I don't know exactly what the umbrella base looks like, and I imagine that strong winds combined with the aerodynamic shape of the umbrella could pull along a hefty weight. I've used these for just one crafts show so far and haven't seen them for a big storm yet.

This should work because you wrap the bag around the base of the pile and then wrap the Velcro around it. I filled mine with plastic ziplock bags of sand. You could also lay the other weights on the base for extra stability.

They will if you have a hole near the bottom of the pole that allows you to use the pin that comes with the bags. Consider drilling a hole to fit the pins if one does not presently exist.

Doubtful. It has a larger, 4-prong base/stand that needs to be weighted down. There are specific offset umbrella bases you can purchases to weigh down the base. I use paving stones. Without being weighed down the umbrella will tip over. A standard, castiron base will likely not have a wide enough base to keep it from tipping over (if it would even fit)

Only if the umbrella is very very light weight. The stand does not have a lot of weight, so it would not be a good choice to hold a typical patio umbrella - it would very likely tip over. Your best bet is to find an Umbrella stand with a larger base. Most patio umbrella stands are either made of heavy material or allow you to fill the base with sand to add weight.

no, you will have to either buy the base separate or if your using it on a wood deck screw it to the deck. I have the white base you use it with, but it takes up so much room and it's real heavy when filled with water.I used deck screws to the deck. If you don't secure it to the deck then it will tip over, the umbrella is heavy and the wind will grab it.

I use them indoors right now, but I would think a strong wind would knock them over. Someone else suggested filling them with sand to keep them steady.

Yes, possibly so, unless you anchor them down somehow. I haven't done that and haven't used them when it's wet, so I can't be sure. Sorry.

The umbrella is not too heavy. The base is very heavy. It would depend on the walking distance to the beach.

Yes, that is correct. They are solid. We had to return ours only because they did not fit with the umbrella we bought. The winds are too strong on our high rise balcony to have an umbrella at all so we returned both. This base however was really nice, sturdy, & beautiful. Even nicer than pictured. I highly recommend as long as you know your umbrella brand will work with it.

Base is a cheap plastic material. I returned it and I don't think it will withstand a very high and strong wind area. Or infact a normal wind too if not filled with sand!!

Yes. Definitely. Depending on how large your umbrella is you might want two or three. That would look really nice too.

Yes, you'll need to get a base for the umbrella. It seems Amazon sells everything, maybe they have them.

I did use a standard umbrella base. Just had to use a little foam to keep it secure.

Not sure because I have never dropped them in the water or had them in the rain, however I do believe they would be waterproof by the way they are made. Sorry I could be of know more help to you in this matter.Regards,Terry L. Shook

I think rain would ruin them. I bought bar chair covers and leave the stools covered except when using them.

Mine broke very quickly. Despite the weight of the base, the cheap plastic bolt under the base that keeps the umbrella upright broke in a bit of gusty wind.

Yes as long as u fill base with sand which can hold over 50 lbs. the only other concern is the screw that holds umbrella only puts pressure against pole so strong wind could blow it out what I did was drill hole in my umbrella pole so that the screw actually went into the pole itself and there was no chance of it slipping out

Umbrellas are at my other house; therefore, cannot measure at moment. However i used them at a convention at Qualcom Stadium...they were average size and adequate for shade. Hope this helps!
