EliteShade 9ft Market Patio Umbrella — 10-Year Non-Fading Acrylic, 80 Solar LED Lights, Crank & Tilt (Black)

This patio umbrella from EliteShade is built for long outdoor use: a 1.5" steel pole and reinforced 8-rib frame combine with solution-dyed acrylic fabric rated for up to 10 years of non-fading performance. The integrated solar system powers a dual-switch hub and 80 LED rib lights for bright evening illumination, while the crank-and-tilt hardware makes opening and adjusting the canopy quick and secure. Designed for yards, decks, poolsides and commercial settings, the umbrella balances weather resistance, UV defense, and convenient lighting.

How does the fabric resist fading and stand up to sun and stains?

The canopy uses 100% solution-dyed acrylic engineered to retain color and repel water and oils. Solution-dyeing saturates fibers with pigment so the color remains stable under prolonged UV exposure, giving you years of consistent shade rather than rapid fading.

• 10-year non-fading top backed by high-grade acrylic construction
• 260 GSM fabric weight for durable heat insulation
• Water- and oil-resistant surface for easier maintenance

What lighting does the umbrella include and how is it powered?

This model features 80 LED lights mounted along the ribs plus a center hub light, controlled with dual switches for flexible brightness and runtime. A solar-rechargeable battery stores daytime energy so the LEDs can run after dusk without external wiring, making it ideal for patios and areas without power access.

• 80 rib-mounted LEDs for even canopy illumination
• Dual switches: separate control for rib lights and hub light
• Solar panel charges the included rechargeable battery—no cords required

How sturdy and weather-ready is the frame?

The umbrella's frame is a heavy-duty steel construction with rust-resistant brown powder coating and eight reinforced ribs. A 1.5-inch diameter pole and robust rib design increase stability and durability compared with standard poles, and the crank-and-tilt mechanism makes it simple to open, close, and angle the canopy to block low sun.

• 1.5" steel pole for stronger support than typical poles
• Rust-free powder coating and 8-rib reinforcement
• Crank-open and push-button tilt for easy operation and shade control

Do I need to buy a base separately and what bases fit?

The umbrella base is sold separately so you can choose a weight and style that suits your installation—table-mount, freestanding, or commercial-grade weighted bases will work. Select a base rated for outdoor use and matched to a 1.5" pole for safe, wind-resistant anchoring.

• Base not included—choose a compatible base for a 1.5" pole
• Recommended to use heavy or bolted bases for windy locations
• Search EliteShade base model numbers for compatible options if needed
