Does it prevent umbrella rotating in the wind? Also what is the outside measurement of the pole?

We get quite a bit of wind during severe rain storms and I never had a problem with the umbrella rotating or falling over. My stand did not come with a pole but I have an umbrella with a pole that is 6 inches in diameter in the stand. I love this stand and hope that you will too.

Hello Mamamia, I would say it probably could prevent the umbrella rotating in a light breeze, if you tighten the set screw really hard, but I wouldn't count on it stopping rotation in any sort of stiff breeze, as that umbrella will have lots of leverage to bring to bear on that small area. You may actually want the umbrella to turn in the wind, rather than fall over. The center tube is 1-3/4" diameter on the outside, and comes with inserts to fit two smaller size umbrella poles. By the way, the tube is water-tight, and fills with rain water. It's not a big deal, but it's annoying when you put the umbrella pole in and water gushes out of the tube. Even though it's powder-coated steel, I'd recommend drilling a small hole as close to the bottom of the tube as you can, to let it drain. Otherwise, it's a fine stand!

it is a pretty heavy stand and sturdy, we do get occaisional wind gusts during thunderstorms and even when up we don't have a problem but the patio is partially blocked from the wind from the house.........

Hi,If it's a windy day, you will need some way of weighing the umbrella down. Like any umbrella, the sportbrella will catch the wind. There are 2 large pockets that you can fill with sand or rocks to hold it in place if you tilt the umbrella as shown in the image above, but I've never anchored the umbrella using just those pockets. Also keep in mind, this is a large umbrella; you may be obstructing the view of other families.

I'm unaware of this specific umbrella brand and model. I can only offer my review of the umbrella stand that I posted... This umbrella stand works great I have 9' wide umbrella that uses a pole with a 1.5" diameter. The umbrella stands straight when installed and "support" screw is tightened fully. I notice many reviews do not contain the umbrellas pole diameter. I wonder if these umbrellas have a smaller pole diameter which seems like it would cause the umbrella to lean when installed . I cannot spek to high wind performance as I store my umbrella when not in use. It has handled good casual breezes without tipping over when free standing (umbrella is not inserted through patio table umbrella hole). Stand looks nice and should fit in with any outside decor.

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 enjoyed the umbrella. It tilts enough to keep the sun off of you. It does move up and down on the pole so you can make sure it keeps the sun off of you. I take two kinds of meds that I'm not supposed to be in the sun because it will cause more severe sunburn. This umbrella has kept that from happening.

The pole is not solid. It fits into a sleeve you set into the soil and turns/spins freely within that metal sleeve. If the wind blows with cloths on it, it should spin around. Look on YouTube for videos too! We are not gentle people, but only use this seasonally at a lake cabin. It holds a lot of clothes and is very easy to install, use and we lift out a store away in the snowy winters. Put a cap over hole of the sleeve. All included. A cover too.

Yes the pole hight adjusts and there is a point. We also bought efs sand anchor so it stays put. Easier than trying to jab the umbrella in the sand.

This umbrella has a slit all the way around its center to allow breezes to pass through. That said, it's still an umbrella, so you'd need to keep hold of it in a strong breeze.

There are several holes in the side of the outer pole that allow you to depress a button/dimple (on the inner, telescoping pole) and lock the pole in place. I used this recently on a camping trip with wind, rain, hail and the pole held up nicely.

The distance from the railing is approximately 3 inches. Plenty of clearance for mounting an umbrella. Once the umbrella is attached and securely tightened to the mount the umbrella is there to stay until you release it. Just make sure you tighten the brackets as tight as you can by hand. If the bracket is not tight the wind will twirl the umbrella around. Hope this helps. Enjoy!

We use the stand for a "market umbrella" that's quite large. Not sure what the pole diameter is but I think it's a standard size.Good luck!

It moves with the wind. We had to secure the base with heavy tiles and close the umbrella on windy days.

I looked up the Brown Jordan umbrellas online and their pole is either 1 1/2 or 2 inch in diameter. What I can tell you is that my umbrella pole is 2 in in diameter and it fits well. The diameter of the pole on the umbrella base is big enough to accomodate umbrella poles larger than 2 in or smaller than 1 1/2 in diameter, because it has tightening screws to adjust for any diameter pole. I hope this is helpful information.

the metal part on the bottom witch the base sits on comes with the offset umbrella. pole diameter 2 1/4" ,2 1/2" might fit because the base is plastic and each base might be a little differnt. i hope this help you.

I am not sure of the exact measurement. I can say that it holds a standard umbrella pole with extra room.

Hi Daisy, The pole diameter is 2 inches and the Base measures 39.5 inches by 39.5 inches. Hope I have answered all of your questions. This is a perfect Umbrella for stay in the shade. Sincerely, Exclusive Home & Furniture Inc.

There is a shaft in the center the umbrella pole fits down into. After inserting the umbrella you turn a knob on the side that tightens a screw against the umbrella pole which helps keep the umbrella from moving.
