Used four times last summer, put it up yesterday, it collapsed this evening. One of the ‘plastic ‘strut connectors has broken. Good job I wasn’t sitting in that chair I’d probably be in hospital. Yes there was a six mile an hour breeze. It was hot. I was pleased with this initially not any more I expected it to last longer than half a summer! Absolute rubbish !

Beautiful, vibrant colour and strong, easy to manouevre cantilever mechanism. The only negative is that you also need to purchase the weighted stand which makes it quite expensive, hence only 4\5 stars.

VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS!! I have came back on here to re-write my review. I did rate this 5*, at first but should of waited. Everything was great to begin with, like most things but after a couple of uses the main center piece of the parasol cracked. I do not put it up when it is windy either.

So delivery took way too long but it was easy to assemble and looks fabulous so I’m happy! So far it’s totally waterproof too.

Fabulous quality, colour perfect with our grey corner garden furniture. Exactly what we have been looking for.

Excellent quality and looks gorgeous

The parasol itself is fantastic coverage. However, the cantilever design makes the central of gravity of the whole structure un-balance. The vertical spine structure actually bends towards the parasol and make the whole frame unsafe.

Really gorgeous colour and easy to put up and down. Not easy to manoeuvre around the garden though which would have been ideal. The only reason it didn’t get a 5* was the length of time it took to deliver.

This parasol is everything and more than we had expected. The recent beautifully hot spring weather, whilst hugely welcome, very quickly rendered our sheltered West facing terrace in London almost unusable for much of the day, so after exhaustive online research, we hit upon the very sturdily built and ingeniously versatile Rhodos Junior. Seamlessly delivered, stylish and fairly easy to put together (although understandably heavy), it provides welcome shade at all the different angles we need during the day on our sun-trap of a terrace. I would highly recommend it to anyone needing a large and moveable source of shade. Do make sure first though that you have enough room for the substantial base (1mx1m square) if you're using it in a smaller space. What I would warn any potential buyer of is how difficult it is to find the 4x25kg paving stones which are required to balance it at the bottom. I spent days trying to find them online and finally my builder friend had to locate them for me. Note to Wayfair: either supply these to purchase separately on your site or provide a list of known suppliers - you would be helping your customers greatly!

Well made , Easy to assemble , but needs 2 persons, once in use seems larger than the 2.7m , easy to change position, after sales services excellent, all in all very good buy, worth the money
