With most of our sets we offer a free parasol. Often people associate “free” with poorer quality but with our parasols this is certainly not the case.
Why do we say this? Well… the parasol hole in our tables is approximately 50mm while the majority of parasols on the market use a wooden 38mm pole, so they will rattle around in the hole in the wind and the canopy will spin, making a parasol ‘take off’ more likely in gusty winds.
Whereas, all our parasols come with a 48mm pole and fit the drilled hole snuggly, thus preventing any rattling. We offer various parasol canopy colours, all in a substantial 3m diameter.
In addition, our poles are powder coated aluminium, with a crank handle system making it easy to put the parasol up and let it down. No fiddling about under the parasol trying to physically push the canopy up, which can be quite an effort!
Believe us when we say we have trialled many, many different parasol designs and sizes and then one we have now is, we believe, definitely the best for our dining sets, offering good protection from the sun with the latest tilt feature. Not at all bad for a freebie!
Within our parasol range, we also offer an LED version, it is more expensive but here are the reasons why:
- A stronger, heavier structural design
- A top-quality powder coated finish
- Very robust winding mechanism
- Features magical built in LED lighting, controlled by USB battery pack and topped up using solar power
The LED parasol really does offer a luxurious upgrade with the appealing addition of mood lighting for those wonderful nights of entertaining family and friends, in a the long, warm summer evenings.
