Where do we get the required weighted umbrella base?
Never mind. I just found one listed further down on the same page.
I use 4 concrete paver stones that you can get at Home Depot for like $3.50/each. They’ve worked well for me on these types of umbrellas for at least 5 years. Never needs replacing, can stay outside in all elements, heavy AF, and if somehow one breaks you can replace it on the cheap.
Thx I was just gonna ask also lol
What kind of pavers did you use? Will it be self explanatory when I see it? Thanks
The umbrella stand listed on the page isn’t big enough for a cantilever umbrella. On the mothership’s listing for the umbrella, the seller says down in the Q&A section that it requires at least a 110 lb. base. Other than the fact that it doesn’t ship with a base, and a few people grumbling about stupid stuff, it seems to have pretty good reviews.
Probably something like this:
Pavestone 16x16 square 16-in L x 16-in W x 2-in H Concrete Patio Stone in the Pavers & Stepping Stones department at Lowes.com
38lbs, so four would be plenty of weight.
But there are others in the 16" to 18" range that would work as well.
