European Side-mount Umbrella 4.4 5 228 238
European Umbrella...bad design and quality. I purchased two of these umbrellas. Basically, they are worthless...a small breeze will tilt the canopy to an unusable position. The canopy turns with the wind, so it cannot be positioned over a table or sitting area. The cover came complete apart during the winter. FG should be ashamed to offer this product. June 25, 2011
side mount umbrella awesome This is an awesome umbrella to go over all of your furniture and stay in the shade. Easy to assemble and beautiful to look at. June 24, 2011
OK ALL GOOD EXCEPT UMBRELLA SHIFTS IN WIND. THE TIGHTNING MECHANISM IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO KEEP IT STABLE. June 24, 2011
Shade Easy to assemble, great backyard umbrella June 24, 2011
Nice umbrella once we got it put together, the umbrella was great. However, it took three of us to do it. Instructions were very sparse. Also I noticed that in a wind, the umbrella turns by itself. The base can't be tightened enough to ensure that a wind won't turn it around. June 23, 2011
GREAT PRODUCT We live in Florida and it gets unbearably hot by the pool, this product allows us to enjoy our pool in the summer heat, would highly recommend, expensive but worth it June 23, 2011
great sun block! A great solution to afternoon sun on the patio! Not the easiest to open. Sure would be great to have a remote control! June 23, 2011
Umbrella Really good/ Easy to assemble, once you get the sand in the base. Upper half moves smoothly and umbrella covers a goos area. The only soft spot is the linkage between the pole and the base. It is supposed to be held still from rotation by a big plastic screw-down dome, but the mechanism does not hold well in a wind. June 22, 2011
Best Shade Provider Received the European Side-mount 11' Umbrella that I ordered. It arrived and has performed as expected with easy operation and an unique look. The kiwi color is just the right color not too bold and not too light. June 22, 2011
LOVE this umbrella! Not sure what some of the other reviewers are talking about. Yes, the crank thing is pretty high up and you have to stand on the base to reach it, but no this umbrella was not a huge deal to assemble. Buy 200 lbs play sand at the store, gradually fill the base alternating with water, then get a friend to help you put the umbrella into the base. I like how it swivels all the way around to cover either my deck seating area or my deck dining table. Price seems expensive until you price out similar low quality ones at pool/hot tub stores. High quality canvas, sturdy metal base, easy adjustments. Fast ground shipping, excellent packaging. Glad the UPS guy left it behind my house near the deck instead of on the front porch (very heavy box). I'm expecting this to last many years and hope to enjoy it as much as I have these first two weeks. June 22, 2011
GREAT PURCHASE Love the flexibility of being able to turn the umbrella to cover either a table or a different area of my patio. The umbrella itself looks great and the opening and closing operation works well. The only minor problem I had was the lack of instructions on how to put the cover on. After a few tries , we finally got it on. June 22, 2011
SUPER Umbrella We're very pleased with this purchase. Looks wonderful, and operates smoothly. Just what we were looking for! June 21, 2011
umbrella its fine but it shipped wo a piece so i cant use it to you ship me the new piece June 21, 2011
Great Umbrella!! We have had a few umbrellas over the years and this by far is the best. Living in Chicago it is very windy, this umbrella stands up to high winds great. Thank you Frontgate June 19, 2011
european umbrella problems Unfortunately, the top pole aluminum retainer bent relatively easily in a wind with the lower swivel engaged and the umbrella folded away in its cover. The swivel should be left loosened when not in use. No instructions were given with the umbrella to do this. Also the upgraded cover does not come with any mounting device or pole to make it easy to cover the umbrella. June 18, 2011
Fantastic Quality Beautiful umbrella! Great quality and ease of operation. Provides fantastic shade and looks beautiful! June 18, 2011
LOVE IT... I am very pleased with the quality of our umbrella. It sure will stand the test of time, beats WalMart any day. Really impressed with the range of motion and tilt factor. We have yet to have a bad product from your company. Extremely Pleased Julie June 17, 2011
Amazing Umbrella This is well worth the $$. Shopped around for a long time. Excellent square footage coverage...very large. Very high quality materials. Great piece of engineering in terms of the neck extending. Simple, simple set up. Love this item. Also, Frontgate shipped this incredibly fast. I had it 3 days after ordering. June 17, 2011
It's beautiful...love it I love this umbrella. It's a nice quality product. It definitely takes two adults to assemble but once up you're all set. Make sure you have where you want it the base is heavy if you have to move it.I'm glad I spent the money on this. June 16, 2011
Best Purchase Ever! Simple assembly. The umbrella looks beautiful and works with an easy crank of the handle to adjust and position the umbrella in practically any position. We absolutely love it!! June 16, 2011
European 11' Umbrella Looks good and should be whay we wanted. June 16, 2011
Great Umbrella! Wish I had ordered it sooner! Looked at this umbrella in the catalog last summer and finally made a purchase. I couldn't be happier with the quality and function. The instructions didn't seem as difficult as other reviewers had mentioned. In fact, my husband and I had it standing over our pool in just over 30 minutes - including the time it took to fill the base with sand. It rotates easily and provides much shade. The base is compact and unobtrusive -- the overall look of the umbrella is definitely high-quality. My husband had no problem with the crank mechanism, but I can see how it may be hard to reach for someone 5ft 5" or shorter. This umbrella will make enjoying our backyard much easier when the temperature climbs! June 15, 2011
Dining under a canopy We recently received this umbrella and it already survived the first Floridian rainstorm that caught us by surprise. The umbrella did not fold or tip over. Nonethless, when expecting heavy winds, I would collaps the canopy as I would any other umbrella. This is truely a beautiful umbrella that offers plenty of shade. We are very pleased! The base is sturdy and big enough to support the canopy without being in the way. Rotating, opening, and closing the umbrella is very simple. Assembly is easy, although the instructions confused us more than they helped. Maybe that is why they were not included in the package and we had to download them. Make sure you have all parts. In our case the crank handle to open the canopy was missing, but Frontgate shipped overnight. Customer service was very helpful. June 13, 2011
Great quality and utility This sets the standard for what an umbrella should do. It is easy to assemble (a two person task but an easy one for two folks), beautiful addition to your patio and a very functional design. June 11, 2011
European Side-mount 11' Umbrella Great product. Very sturdy and it works as advertised. The manual could be a bit more detailed as far as how to put it together. I do wish it could tilt from side to side. Regardless, we are very happy with it and it provides great shade for our pool. June 9, 2011
Love This Umbrella! We were looking for something that would provide a good amount of shade for our patio. Since we live in PA, we also need to be able to store it for winter. We absolutely love this umbrella. The quality cant be beat. I ordered the auburn and the color is perfect, not too bright. I am 5'4" tall and although the crank is a little high, i can reach it without problem standing on the base. I can also get the cover on myslef. Very easy to assemble. Would recommend this for sure. June 2, 2011
Great Sun Blocking Umbrella The finished product has impressed us so far. Set up was fairly simple but required some effort. Filling the base with sand was time consuming and then placing the pole in the stand requires 2 strong men! Our only complaint is the hand cranks are too high for someone under 5'4" without standing on the base. And due to the base footprint, using a footstool is impossible. Will provide an update on the durability of the base. May 14, 2011
Very attractive umbrella Does exactly what it says it does Looks beautifull, keeps sun away. Just a little high to put the cover on. Delivered within 5 days. Worth the $$$. May 11, 2011
Great product and great service. I can easily see this product costing twice as much. Very high quality, good instructions and very easy to install. May 10, 2011
The best umbrella you will ever own! This umbrella is absolutely wonderful! We had an older version of this umbrella for years and it held up great. We just bought this newer version to match our new patio furniture and we are still in love with it. It shades wonderfully and even on the windest of days, it has NEVER blown over! Great product and worth the $$$ May 3, 2011

Answer: 
You may need a ladder.

First, close the umbrella canopy and move it as close as possible to the tubular arm.

Place the cover on top of the umbrella canopy (the zipper should close downward and the ties should be at the bottom)..

Move the cover down, while enclosing the umbrella and the tubular arm, close the zipper.

Tie the ties around the bottom of the cover. Click on picture below to see the cover on the umbrella.

This umbrella tilts some when the wind blows but I have had it a month and have not found a way to secure it into a tilted position to block the late afternoon sun. How do you make it tilt?

Answers

Answer: 
A little late for this... but you need to decide first which way you want to block the sun before you place the umbrella and fill it up with the 200 lbs of sand. The umbrella only tilts one way and that is with the back to the tubular base.

Extend the umbrella and open the canopy like you normally do (placing the crank handle in Socket A (upper hole), extending all the way and then in Socket B (lower hole), opening the canopy all the way.

Then to tilt it, go back to Socket A (upper hole) and using the crank handle move it counter-clockwise until you achieve the desired tilt.

Click on "Overview" (Umbrella, website) to see last sentence "View simple...", instruction manual, page 4 for complete instructions.
