Hello, what is the width of the umbrella pole? Do you recommend a certain weight for an umbrella stand to ensure the umbrella stays put? Thank you.

Not sure what the measurement is on the diameter of the pole, except that it is standard. I believe that most stands can accommodate different widths within a standard range. I went with a heavier base just to be safe. But I'm sure 25 lbs is fine unless you live in a wind-tunnel

The "T" stand it comes with requires square patio pavers to hold it down, otherwise the weight of the umbrella will make the whole thing fall over. My husband inserted a pole larger than the diameter of the umbrella pole into the ground (with concrete), the umbrella pole is then inserted into that as a stand and is very secure. It can still be turned to shade where needed. The original stand would have been fine, we needed the space under the umbrella and did not want to anchor it with concrete patio pavers . I hope this helps.

the pole is smaller than the average outdoor umbrella. i would suggest if you do use a regular umbrella weight that you add something (i.e. foam, crumpled up plastic bags, etc) to keep it in place.

Sorry, I do not know the weight, but, it is VERY heavy and it does not move or tip the umbrella over, even in strong winds. The only complaint is, where the screw meets the cylinder for the umbrella post, it gets rusty and loose. I have to oil and re-tighten it several times a year. Hope this helps!

Dear Dandelion 13,......Please forgive me for being so late at telling about the stand. From the ground up to where the pole starts is 4".The stand is 20" wide at the base,and 15" high from ground to top of the pole. It has an insert that can be taken out if you have a 2" umbrella pole,or leave it in for a 11/2" one.Hope I could help you.

Wt? I purchased 2 and one rusted outWhere the post meets the base. The 2nd one is soon to be replaced. I thought it would be heavy enough but the Florida inland breezes knocked the umbrella down. I would look else where. Try a concrete base.

The pole is the same size as a standard umbrella pole. Nothing is bigger except the amount of shade this enormous umbrella puts up.

This is our second umbrella as the first one lasted year round for probably 4 years. The pole is 1 3/8" in diameter and is aluminum and will last. We have been very pleased with it.

We have a standard 18"x18" base that is about 20 lbs and in NE, it did not stop the umbrella from falling in the NE wind. We are going to look at other options this summer such as a higher support, larger base, or finding a way to add weight to the base.

1 1/2 inches. Umbrella pole that I have is 1" which I believe is pretty standard unless it's one of the larger diameter wooden poles. Hope that this answers your question.

It might be too short... Make sure to look at the pole height in the specs. Otherwise it's a great, sturdy umbrella.

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.

Hi Jane...my pavers are 12" x 12" and 3" thick and weigh about 27 lbs. each. So far they have been more than adequate to hold the stand stable in the winds we have had. Umbrella closed of course since we usually close it if the wind gets too strong, but it holds steady even in the open position. Home Depot has a fairly nice selection of stones and lists the weight on the product tags. Good luck.

The diameter of the umbrella pole is 2". The diameter of the stand section that receives the umbrella pole is 2 1/4-2 1/2" Make sure the stand is securely fastened to what ever it is sitting on. This is a very good umbrella but definitely lower it when there is any kind of wind. This umbrella is the best that you can find now.

Hi! Sorry but our umbrella is stored away for the winter so I can't give you exact measurements, but if you have the whole thing parallel to the ground, then the canvas is about 12" shorter than the total height of the pole. Hope that helps.

The diameter of the pole on my umbrella is 1.5". I measured twice though I do not intend to cut.
