Shadowspec Retreat™ Wall Mounted Cantilever Umbrella

Perfect, high quality, easy to use umbrella.

I was searching for a quality wall mounted umbrella for my home deck and have always appreciated the durability and craftsmanship of commercial grade products. Although very pricey, I believe it's worth the investment. This umbrella was on sale with an additional 10% off of first purchase. The umbrella was delivered within one week, perfectly packaged in one box. The instructions were clear, however, it took me much longer to install than suggested. Wall bolts specifications are listed in the instructions, but not included. Therefore, I had to go to the hardware store to find the bolts along with a hammer drill. The specs are metric so I had to do conversions to find equivalents. Once I had the umbrella installed, it works great. However, they recommend the wall mount be installed at 7'2". This places the release pin at that height. At 5'4", I need to stand on my toes to reach it.

Although this umbrella is absolutely perfect in functionality for the space I have and seems to be made of solid materials and well as easy to operate, there is one thing. The gas piston that came with the umbrella to help open close it as part of the design was broken. Customer service is in the process of helping but seem to be taking there time sending me a new one leaving me hanging not sure if the part will come in time for the parties this umbrella was ordered for.

Great quality, instructions are understandable and was easy to install and use.
