Blue Star Group Off-The-Wall Brella Olefin Half Umbrella, 7.5'-Width, Antique Beige

So when I first ordered Amazon was supposed to deliver and Amazon fell on their face on delivery. I was able to re-order thru Amazon but have the manufacture, BlueStarGroup, ship directly to me. The owner John actually called me to work out some issues on the color of the fabric which was done with ease. Product arrived 2 days earlier than promised. Product is strong/well made. Sunbrella fabric is vibrant and we will get many happy years from it. The best part is this companies customer service, follow up and concern for their end user...you and me. John at Blu Star Group is excellent...THANK YOU JOHN FOR ALL YOUR HELP!! They will always get my business when it comes to patio umbrellas and accrutements. Highly recommend!!

The umbrella matches the description. It is well made. The crank is not entry level. I just don't know how fade resistant it is. It says it is olefin, like Sunbrella but less expensive. Time will tell.

I used this for a shade cover over my camper door, the top of the door to clear is 84" from the ground .very happy with it, tried to show how is fitted without the base, we shortend the pole some ,very easy to put up and wind down in case of wind when away. I have the 7 1/2 foot, but wish I had the 9 , was afraid it would be a giant sale ,but no would have been perfect,Will be another purchase later.

First off, it came almost a week sooner than they said it would so that puts me in a good mood. Secondly, it is just amazing quality. I reviewed the base and reported that it is crazy heavy (almost 50 pounds) and the umbrella went in so easy. The material is so freaking much better than the less expensive umbrellas and because the base is so sturdy, I'm sure I'm going to be able to leave it up all season. It's like getting an awning at a fraction of the cost.It perfectly sheilds my back room from the evening sun and lets me sit out back during these spring rains. This company (with whom I am not affiliated) puts together quality. I'm really happy!

Purchased his umbrella (along with the matching half-umbrella base to shade (3) windows that face east and get sun until early afternoon. Purchase of sudden urgency since the large tree that shaded those windows was ripped out during a major storm. I had a problem in initially opening the umbrella because it got caught on a window lip and became damaged. But was able to repair. Umbrella now gets used every morning from about 9 until 1pm. 1st umbrella I've had to buy in 12 yeara, since my yard was formerly quite shady. Recommend this umbrella if you have a sunny set of windows or doors that need shade from direct sunlight.

We have a narrow third floor balcony that has no cover from the sun/rain and no room to put a standard umbrella. This one was perfect! The base is heavy enough to keep the umbrella stable and it fits nicely against the exterior of our unit. It's allowed us to make better use of our small, outdoor space. We purchased the umbrella from amazon.com, but we also purchased the half-table from the Blue Star Group locally. It works well in the small space with this umbrella. My neighbor (same small balcony)has the table and chair set and had recommended this company. This is a great buy for balconies, but I imagine it could be useful in any outdoor space.

I use this for an awning on my vintage camper and have gotten alot of compliments on it, many people don't know these even exist. It was damaged in shipping, I just have to open it upside down then flip it over or one arm will open backwards. Didn't feel like asking for a replacement since it's easier to open that way anyway.

Love the umbrella and stand, just what I wanted. Have had 15 months and the umbrella is fading and ripping. I have left it opened almost all the time. Perhaps I should have closed it when the wind blew. Really loved it and may even buy it again and close it more often.
