How many pounds does the base need to be to hold this up?

Bronze Resin offset Umbrella Bases you have to buy 4. When the umbrella is down it is awesome but when it is open like any other it will tip. My husband put braces underneath and it is great!

I bought the 4 triangle weights on Amazon I think they each weigh 25lbs. We had a really windy storm the other day and I thought for sure it was going to tip and it didn't! I love this umbrella:)

Has long as you have it properly anchored to the wall it should support up to 75 pounds. It's the hangars that you hang accessories that has to be heavy enough to hold heavy objects.

The base is on the wall, the unit is light. I would say maybe 1to 1 1/2 pounds for both pieces.

Yes, more than heavy enough. I'd say the base is around 50 lbs. I have my lamp fully extended and the base keeps it stable.

Weight Capacity- 300 lbs (also depends on the support from which it is hung on)

I would say approximately 20 lb. You might be able to push it to 30 lb but I would not on mine.

I can't quite honestly say, my fatter cat is about 14lbs and it holds him up no problem. Apply the laws of physics though, the higher the structure the wider your base needs to be or else it will tip over.

i have about 2 lbs on it. max i'd do is 5 lbs. at 10 lbs, i'm confident it would fail.i installed mine through dry wall

I'm not sure of the weight, but our umbrella is huge and we were having all kinds of problems with it moving, tipping, etc. until we changed to this base.

I haven't weighed it, but you will break your umbrella before this base budges an inch. It won't move even if the umbrella was open in a hurricane. It's heavy!

It will safely hold a 200 lb. man. The set-up instructions are sparse but me and my daughters soon figured it out.

hey brian ....i forgot or just did not really read your question....it will hold about anything. small....just move the sides closer....big put them as far apart as you can, just make sure your base is stable when using it for large........john

Pretty well as long as you have the right base to keep it secured meaning at least a 50 pound plus base.

The base is two sections screwed together. Can easily support 175 lbs. It should be fine on flagstone.

I used water in mind, because it was for a 6 year old, but if you want more stability use sand. The diameter of the base is about 24 inches (2 feet), the depth is about 14 inches, I used the below site to calculate the number of lbs needed to completely fill the base, you'll need between 250 to 270 lbs of sand. http://www.kidsafesand.com/Sand%20Calculator.html?diameter (use the Round Sand Boxes calculator on the right).

I have a friend who weighs 275 and it held him. It was a little shaky but it held up with no signs of damage. I weigh 200 and it is no problem, solid as a rock.

Don't know exactly but it's built really solid. I was 250 on it when I started and it wouldn't budge. I'm guessing it holds over 300 lbs easy and that would be a very conservative guess! You won't break this thing.
