Shade Coverage and Wind Resistance
The 9 ft round canopy spans 8.2 ft in overall height with a 6.6 ft edge clearance. Eighteen fiberglass ribs support the frame, giving the umbrella a broad footprint that resists gusts better than models with fewer ribs. The 1.5 in aluminum pole adds rust-resistant strength without adding bulk. At 12 lbs the unit remains light enough to move between garden, poolside and beach settings.
Crank Lift and Tilt Limits
Opening the canopy relies on a manual crank that connects the two pole sections. The tilt mechanism lets you angle the fabric to follow the sun, but the range of motion is fixed by the built-in joint; there is no continuous rotation or automated tracking. Once tilted, the position holds until you crank the handle back to vertical, so adjustments require physical access to the handle each time.
Fabric Capacity and Weather Headroom
The 180G polyester canopy repels light drizzle and resists fading under daily UV exposure. An integrated air vent allows hot air to escape, keeping the shaded area cooler during peak sun. The material is not waterproof; heavy rain will penetrate the weave and pooling water can stress the ribs. In strong sustained winds the large surface area can still catch enough force to topple the umbrella unless it is secured in a weighted base.

Questions about this item
What does the 9 ft diameter and 8.2 ft height mean for my outdoor table setup?
The 9 ft canopy spans a wide seating area while the 8.2 ft overall height fits under most patio ceilings, and the 6.6 ft edge clearance lets adults walk beneath it without stooping.
How does the 180G polyester canopy perform in sun and light rain?
The 180G fabric resists drizzle and fading, and the built-in air vent lets hot air escape so the shaded space stays cooler during peak sun.
What does the 1.5 inch pole diameter limit in terms of base or table compatibility?
The 1.5" aluminum pole fits standard 1.5" table holes and bases; the two-piece pole connects quickly and the crank handle opens the 18-rib canopy without tools.
