The crank winding mechanism means that you can have your parasol up in a flash to make the most of those sunny days. Then simply tilt to the perfect angle to give you the cover you need. Able to rotate a full 360 degrees, it provides easy shading control throughout the day as the sun moves. The central pole design allows the parasol to sit in the centre of your patio table, making it the perfect centrepiece for any garden party or dining al fresco. To keep things nice and cool, there is a discreet vent at the top of the canopy which aids better airflow. This also helps with stability by reducing wind pressure. Each rib of the parasol is decorated with 4 beautiful cool white LED lights which are conveniently solar powered, so when the sun goes down, you can keep your summer evenings illuminated in an environmentally and financially friendly way. With a built in on/off switch you can quickly light up your parasol to continue enjoying your outdoor spaces. Made from durable powder coated carbon steel and with a pole thickness of 38mm, this parasol is extremely sturdy and is sure to stand the test of time. A patio table can support the parasol but for greater freedom on where you can use your parasol, and to keep it securely anchored, we suggest using a weighted base. Shade from the sun or take the party right through to the night with the magical LED lights. This LED tilt parasol is the perfect accompaniment for every setting.
