i like how easy it unfolds and folds up. it is thinner than my past umbrellas. not a total black out like a heavier canvas one would be. i kind of like the fact that some light gets through. i am using it in area not affected by wind so i cant tell you how it would hold up under stress. being 10 x 6.5 it is big and you will need a sturdy base for sure. i am very happy with it. should it last 2 years i figure it well worth it. i do believe it will last longer. will just have to see.
nice for the price
