can the umbrella be tilted?

No, it cannot be tilted. It has just a clamp for setting on the side or back of a chair. I did NOT see any way to tilt the clamp.
252563
Yes, slightly. There is a portion of the umbrella rob just above the clamp that is a bit flexible. Not really flexible, but slightly. And this does help once you get the clamp where you need it.

No. It cannot be tilted. I would not recommend this umbrella. It is very poorly made.

I wouldn't say it can be tilted. You can take the clamp and change the way it works - Horizontal or Vertical. Note that the Umbrella pole is short. Once clamped to a director's chair with a shorter back, you will need to still duck to get in, so it does do a pretty good job of protrecting your upper half.

No it does not. You don't need a tilt because of it being an offset umbrella. It swivels which ever way you want and give you shade or sun. Hope this helps. If you live in a windy atea I would not purchase this umbrella. Here in Albuquerque we can get bad winds that come out of nowhere and this umbrella is mostly closed when it is windy.

No, it can't tilt in the traditional sense. You can use the sand anchor at an angle to get some degree of tilt, but not much.

Just a foot or so from the top of the pole is a metal cylinder (different color than the pole) Get assertive and press on that and the umbrella will tilt.Let me know if you need to ask me something else.Sara from San Clemente

When the umbrella is fully open the cranking lever will allow you to tilt the umbrella up to about 45 degrees. About 1/2 rotation with the lever will adjust the umbrella to a 45 degree angle. About a 1/4 crank will adjust the tilt to about 22 degrees, and so on. When the umbrella is fully tilted you will feel strong cranking resistance and you will know that the umbrella is at maximum tilt position. There is no "click" to let you know that the umbrella is fully tilted, but you don't need one. You will know by the "feel" of the crank lever and by the angle of the umbrella. It is a pretty smooth, easy to use mechanism and we are happy with ours.

No it does not tilt. Supposidly you can adjust the support arm so fully extended it will tilt open away from the support poll but I've had 3 of these and frankly they are a great product for the money. But to your question tilting... you can get to tilt, but it won't stay tilted in the wind. That is kind of a self-preservation saftey deal. The more it is tilted the more it acts like a sail or parachute! Neither is desirable. Something else, YOU MUST ANCHOR ALL OFFSET UMBRELLAS AND ALL OF THEM RECOMMEND YOU DO SO. WHY ANYONE WOULD THINK THEY WOULD STAND WITHOUT BEING ANCHORED IS BEYOND THE VOICE OF REASON. I mean extend your arms in front of you and lift one foot... how long can you stand in this pose? It's a fulcrum baby. That is what and offest is! But you don't have to bolt them. I've anchored 3 of them with just 4 patio pavers 12"square by 3" thick. I don't know if the skinny ones have enough wt. But the one I was most worried about the wind grabbin I just place 2 concrete foundation blocks stretching over the top of opposite legs resting on the patio pavers. I use these as covers over 3 person hot tubs on raining nights. Wind is always around if it is raining and I never lost one to the wind. BUT THEY DO HAVE TO BE ANCHORED !!! Hell a heavy wt. stumbling will knock them over it you don't anchor them.

Hello,I purchased an 11' auto tilt umbrella from HD. The Costco site indicates it is not recommended for use with cantilevered (off-set) umbrellas, so unfortunately I don't know if an off-set would work, although I would think if you did fill the botom with sand and bricks for maximum weight, perhaps it would.

Yes this umbrella will tilt. There is a push button torwards the top of the pole that you push after the umbrella is open to engage the tilt feature is hard to spot the first time you do it. You also have to push in again while you straighten the umbrella at the same time to get back in the upright postion.

Yes, the umbrella can be adjusted very easily... High or low... It is a nice feature.&#128512;

The umbrella will not rotate - in a way probably good since the umbrella is rather big and any wind would move it around....Used some garden stones to keep the base in place.We just love this umbrella and it gives plenty of sun protection !Easy to install and handle !

There is a pin to hold the raised umbrella in place. There are two positions, but they are almost exactly the same. It does not bend/angle or tilt at the top. You get what you pay for with this umbrella.

Hello Jae You are able to use a tilted umbrella the table with base weight 100LBS However, with any umbrella you should take caution on windy days Thank you

No, it has a foot print a little too small to support the typical offset umbrella. Sorry.

I cannot help with your question I returned the umbrella (reviewed http://www.amazon.com/Coolaroo-Round-Umbrella-Position-Tilt-Aluminum/product-reviews/B000P7FU3A/ref=cm_cr_pr_hist_3?ie=UTF8&filterBy;=addThreeStar&showViewpoints;=0) as soon as I got it and never got to try the mechanism.

Toward top there is a silver colored panel with button you push to make the umbrella tilt make sure to have good hold on top as it will move as one piece hope this helps!

We cannot set it to tilt, however it swivels/rotates 360 degrees so we move it throughout the day to stay shaded. We bought two of them and love the quality.
