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 hanging style of this parasol keeps the stand out of the way allowing you to make the most of your shaded area. 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. A cross-section bottom allows the cantilever to stand freely but to ensure its securely anchored we have included suitable base weights. This parasol base is quick and easy to set up, simply fill with sand or water and you're good to go!
