About this product
The MasterCanopy 2.7M Patio Umbrella offers a generous amount of shade for your outdoor space. This beige umbrella boasts a diameter of 270 centimetres – sufficient to comfortably cover a square, rectangular, or round table seating four to six people. Designed with ease of use in mind, it features a crank mechanism for opening and closing the canopy, alongside an auto-tilt function that allows you to adjust the shade angle according to the position of the sun.
Constructed for durability, the umbrella utilises an anti-rust powder coated Fe-Al frame supported by eight aluminium ribs. This robust design provides stronger support compared to umbrellas with six ribs, and a single wind vent at the top contributes to stability in breezy conditions. The canopy itself is made from 100% polyester, known for its waterproof, fade-resistant, easy-to-clean properties, and resistance to mildew, stains, tears and UV rays.
This umbrella is suitable for both residential and commercial settings, perfect for enjoying summertime family gatherings or afternoon tea with friends. It's a versatile addition to patios and outdoor areas. Please note that a separate parasol base is required for added stability – this accessory is not included in the package.
The shaft incorporates aluminium alloy and zinc alloy materials, while the handle is chrome-plated iron. The umbrella’s dimensions are 2.7 metres wide by 2.4 metres high, making it a substantial piece of patio furniture.
