Does this umbrella fit in a screw in the ground holder? Can it be set up like a normal umbrella?

It does not screw into a holder. There are stakes provided that you can stake down the umbrella. It does not sit up like a normal umbrella, it does tilt off to the side as shown in the picture. What I liked about it I can sit in a chair and still have cover over me.

Yes, it can be set up like a normal umbrella, but I would recommend using the pair of cords that it comes with to attach to stakes in the ground. For the size of this, I don't believe it would be steady enough to safely skip using them.

I purchased The Original Umbrella Stand and the Bleacher Buddy for my umbrella. My daughter plays softball. I find somewhere in the grassy area to use The Original Umbrella Stand (she plays in the middle of summer and it's just cooler in the grass). Unfortunately sometimes I just have to sit in the bleachers or right in front of them and that's when I use the Bleacher Buddy. This umbrella does extremely well in either stand.

Unsure about that due to the peg type end. To really secure it into sand/ soil, purchase a plastic mallet to pound it in the ground. It can be used as a normal umbrella. Check out the YouTube video to view.

Yes, the umbrella pole does lock with a screw bolt near the base. However, when you move the shade mobile around you are holding the umbrella at the pole and this motion over time loosens the screw at its' base so be sure to periodically check the screw that it is tight. I found my umbrella at a neighbors yard one day as a gust of wind blew it away. Now I make sure the screw is tight periodically. Still love my shade mobile and umbrella.

I am sorry to report I don't think so. we live in an area with some breeze and it wasn't able to hold a regular umbrella all the time let alone offset umbrella.

I don't think so. This system needs the umbrella to go into the ground/sand so it is somewhat anchored. If you keep it above ground it would probably get dragged by any wind. Good luck!

It does not have the required hole in the table top for an umbrella. I think you would be better off with a stand alone umbrella with this table anyway because of the height and width of the table.

With the proper base, can the umbrella stand up right next to a lounge chair?

No. I use this for a breeding cage for smaller parrots like plumheads. It is way too small for an Umbrella. It looks bigger in the picture but I was a little disappointed.

Yes, the umbrella is tightened to the base with bolt and it sits in very securely. Just make sure that you check the bolt every time you move the stand as it may come loose due to the movement. Additionally, the table comes with a few inserts of various diameter sizes to secure the umbrella rod to the table as well. We had some pretty strong wind and rain as of lately but absolutely no issues with the umbrella, or the stand. A great product in my opinion.

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.

There IS a hole in the top, which has a matching plug/cover, and the base also has a hole. IT COMES WITH A WARNING NOT TO USE AN UMBRELLA. There is no way this unit can hold it up. An option would be to support the base somehow. This table is extreemely lightweight. Can be lifted with one hand.

Yes, but the umbrella did not stand up to windy days at beach. Very disappointed with it. Probably will send it back.

As the first two responses state, the bottom is a plastic screw that is riveted into the pole and cannot be removed. The widest portion of the screw is about 3" in diameter. That would make it too large to fit in any deck stand that I have seen. Also deck umbrellas typically have longer poles than this beach umbrella. I think that it would be hard to make it work.

Yes, you can add a umbrella to the center of the table if you install the 2X4 cross brace called for in instructions.however, the umbrella would require a ground footing in order that it is anchored by the table and at the floor or ground. A small bucket 6" tall and 9" wide at the top filled with sand would do the job if you are using in on a patio like I am. If you are using it in a grassy area you could dig a hole for umbrella shaft

No it's slightly smaller than a typical patio umbrella. You'd have to tighten whatever screws hold it in the patio stand.

I have 2 of these umbrellas. It should be fine just standing up in the table. It's a pretty tight fit

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.

The inside hole is about 2 in. diameter. If you wanted to put the umbrella pole down through, it would be possible as long as it fit! Good idea!
