Stay in the Shade with Patio Umbrellas

I hope that I can find my patio umbrellas over the next few weeks. They must be somewhere… I also hope that they are not damaged from that last storm when I failed to close it up and the wind got a hold of it. Well if you are like me there is a good chance you may be looking for patio umbrellas this season.
Pictured here is the FiberBuilt aluminum market umbrella from PatioUmbrellas.com. This model features 9 feet of shade along with a sturdy 1.5 inch aluminum pole. I also, like the wooden pole varieties, but they are more expensive. I prefer the tilt feature which allows you to tilt the umbrella towards the sun if you like. It comes in a no-tilt variety as well. The FiberBuilt also comes with an easy crank mechanism and flexible fiberglass ribs. I really like the fact that there is a warranty offered on this product – one year on the pole and three years on the shade. I have owned too many patio umbrellas in the past that could not even withstand one season of weather. PatioUmbrellas.com offers many models built for commercial use. I really like this since weather can be so unpredictable. Price: $292.99-$379.99.
