The six ribs on my umbrella are 4' 3" long - this doesn't take into account the width of the pole/hub mechanism. Do I need an 8' cover or a 9' cover?

I'm pretty sure you need a 9' cover. Two of the umbrella ribs would measure 8' 6" (the cover size is its diameter).

I never measured the length of the ribs...just counted them. Mine had eight ribs and it fits perfectly. I did purchase covers for my unbrellas to protect them from burning out and fading (under the South Florida sun). Good investment !!!

I would go for 9 ft, we even had to file the ribs down a little to reduce the tension. But please note that this one is made for 8 ribs, you are talking about 6!!!! Don't make a mistake!

I got the 9 feet but the ribs on my umbrella are bigger (4'7) not counting the pole, and the fit was perfect.

I think you should use the 9 foot. It may be a little loose but the pockets are plenty deep and besides, I don't believe the 8 foot will be big enough.

I don't think so- have a half umbrella in mine- which is about 8 ft at widest- the pole is about 1.5 diameter for mine- I don't think would put larger umbrella in it anyway even if it would'fit' because it just holds onto my smaller 'half' umbrella- it's nice looking and works well for my purpose but don't think would put 11 ft. umbrella in it- I also live in windy AZ- 2nd floor condo- have 2 umbrellas on western exposure patios- I don't leave them open on windy day-

I got a great cover that just slides over it. Also Amazon ! Works well but I don't think a tie is necessary because it closes right up to pole. A VERY good quality umbrella - sturdy and well made. Price was excellent.

No,But it will work with 8". But it will not be as a cover due to size difference. Good luck. Saleh

My umbrella is a 6 foot around, the pole is just a standard size. The insert hole for the pole is large with a tightening screw that holds the pole in place, I think it would work well for a large umbrella. When you say 8 foot, do you mean the length of the pole or the width of the umbrella? It may be that all the poles are a standard size. If you mean the umbrella size around but on a standard pole, this anchor should still work well.

Hi David - The 8' wide shade may help, with 6" on each side. I don't believe Coolaroo makes a 9' wide shade,but whatever you get, I can highly recommend the Coolaroo UV sun shades - we put 3 up on our screen porch.The 8' one covers a side which is 11.6, because the 12 foot was too wide, and we did not want to spend $on a 10-foot shade. We put the 8' shade towards the corner where the sun comes up over the trees about3 pm to 7 pm, and it works perfectly. The other 3.6 feet are shaded by trees on the other end. The Coolarooare quality and very easy to install. JKF Hi David - The 8' wide shade may help, with 6" on each side.

these are made for an offset umbrella and your need 4 to complete the circle at the base. You should have prongs at the base that four fit around and base is like a cross so one base fits on each like 4 pie pieces.

yes it will, although a 9 foot umbrella might be too heavy for the stand, increasing the risk of tipping should there be any wind. we use 7 foot umbrellas and have had a few tip overs in 20+ mph winds

Yes, you just need to draw up the screen more along the top. It's easy. Or you would just let the material bag up around the bottom. I think it would be fine. I had mine on the 9' umbrella and wish the screen was bigger so I think the 7' umbrella would be ok.

I don't know the exact dimension, but it will support your pole without any interference from the top rail. I have your standard 2x4 top rail and there is a small gap between the pole and the railwhen my umbrella is install. Make sure you use a base support for your pole, because the wind will move the pole around and make the mount wobble.

My umbrella is 9 ft in diameter...but the diameter of the pole would be the question, I think. I would think they are pretty much standard, and hopefully dimensions of both are online. I really like the base; it's heavy and I leave it out all winter...no sign of rust, etc.

My grandson is 6 ft. tall and he walks under the entrance with about 12" clearance. The corner poles have several notches for adjusting the height. I think we set up with the pole adj. in the middle hole. Set up time with no wind is approx. 30 minutes. You will need the 4 walls to protect from hail. Your vehicle shouldn't be over 8 ft. wide so you would have clearance on each side, but the length being only 15 ft. could be a problem. The supplied bag to hold your unit is approx. 5.6 ft. long.

Since the umbrella is like a dome, it depends on how it is measured. 68" measures the arc inside the dome of the umbrella from end to end, with a tape measure pressed against the material. However, a straight line from spoke to spoke is 56".

My barbeque is 46" high, 68" long and 21" wide and the cover fits easily over it with room to spare. The cover goes all the way to the ground and settles on the ground leaving me to believe that it would still cover my barbeque to the ground even if it was 3-4" taller. I think that it would cover a much shorter power wheelchair. I'm still very happy with the quality of the cover even after 3 or 4 good rain and wind storms. It has weathered well.

I bought three of these to replace the covers originally sent with my 11 foot offset patio umbrellas from Costco. Although not an exact match for the umbrellas, these covers are higher quality and construction. Also, they are very attractive. The measurements on mine when folded over my umbrellas are: 24 inches at the top of the cover gradually increasing to 35 inches at the bottom and 96 inches in length. A bot of my umbrella brace shows but all of my canopies are covered and protected. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your interest. However, the smallest 8 rib replacement canopy we have is for 9 ft umbrellas. It fits umbrellas with rib length from 52" - 54". ~Formosa Covers
