“Withstands rooftop deck winds with ease”

10/15/18

I've had too many blow over cracking table glass, then later plastic. Although it looks a little fragile fabric, actually very durable. Wish there were a tie down though. Crank works fine. Size as requested. The 30 mph wind resistance is no joke.

Top Critical Review

“Awful product and return policy - don't buy!”

Do not order from this company! Low quality and the worst customer service. Our umbrella faded (see photo) after 3 months. They wanted to charge us $40 for the umbrella to be replaced under warranty.

I hate to write another review for the same company, when I would never buy from them again, but this company needs to be shut down! First, it's a fake website-made to look legitimate. Second, they are selling BEST CHOICE umbrellas-Google it they are $89- NOT $150. Third, they WILL NOT WORK WITH YOU. Fourth, customer service is non-existent! Stay away!

Tip for consumers:
DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE!

This is one of the umbrellas that we have been planning to buy from time to time. It worked well with our gazebo idea and for that, its a recommended product when you are performing exterior design.

75 days after delivery, my $200 umbrella was so faded it will never last a few seasons. Sale, delivery and install went well but the product is NOT AS ADVERTISED. Save yourself some time and the landfill space and only buy Sunbrella® fabrics, because the umbrellas from PatioSunUmbrellas are NOT UV resistant.

Tip for consumers:
Love value on umbrellas as they do not use UV protected material

Products used:
6.5'-10' umbrella and base

My room remains always very spacious, and the innovative bed design has proved that to be extremely helpful, is to accommodate any visitor or guest. Take a bow, The Patio.

Lazy customer service. Inefficient processes. My order was out of stock (but nowhere in their site did it say it was running low) and it took 4 lengthy calls, 3 weeks to receive 1 out of 3 items. And I did not even know there were issues on the other items until my 4th call and no other resolution than a refund. Willing to bet I will have to call another time at least to see that refund and probably another 3 weeks. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SITE. THEY ARE NOT WORTH ALL THE TROUBLE.

Tip for consumers:
Dont buy here! They are not worth all the pain after you placed that order and they already got your money.

Products used:
Nothing! Everything did not get to me in time!

I ordered 5 umbrellas from this company and one was shipped broken. I have sent over 75 emails to this company and several phone calls. They refuse to send out an new umbrella. I have offered to send the broken one back and they want me to pay $40.00 for shipping to return there broken product. There customer service is horrible and there products are very low quality. I finally ended up disputing the charges with my charge card company and you will to. STAY AWAY THERE A FLY BY NIGHT COMPANY AND WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY! I will be posting all my emails between me and patio sun umbrellas so everybody can see what kind of company this really is.

Dimensions of umbrella given were totally wrong. Called before purchasing to verify and given wrong information - ordered the umbrella and looked at the photo closely - cancelled order and returned - that was 2 years ago and they refuse to refund money! Do not answer phone, even from delivery company!
It came from Canada so there's not much stateside that can be done - DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY - cheap junk too- so many corporate names- sketchy

I purchased 2 umbrellas from this place on March 24,2020. After we used them four times (within the first two weeks) the bottoms began to rust. I called to request replacement. They stated I met the qualifications for a replacement but it would cost 40 dollars per umbrella to ship me new ones. The website clearly states that if there are any issues at all with your umbrella they will ship a new one out "free of charge." Well... after dozens of emails, numerous phone calls I cannot seem to get a response from anyone in management. I finally received a response that stated they would lower the shipping fee to 30 dollars. When I attempted to call them to pay the 30 dollars they told me it was 30 for each umbrella. It clearly does not say that in the email and they refused to stand by what they wrote saying "it was a typo." I requested to speak to a manager and after waiting for almost 5 minutes I was hung up on and now they are not answering my calls. The customer service of this place is terrible! Their warranty is fraud, the customer service is terrible, and they are not willing to stand by what THEY wrote in their email. If I could give this place negative stars I would. They do not stand by their product and I would highly recommend going anywhere but here for your outdoor needs! Terrible!

These umbrellas are rugged and the base is secure. When we had an issue with ours that we couldn't remedy ourselves, they promptly sent us a replacement umbrella.

I had the same experience as everyone else, although they did send one replacement umbrella after much complaining, and it was as cheap as the other and broke within 24 hours of putting it up. The cord broke both times leaving me with a limp, umbrella that tilted, nothing seems to keep it upright.

They had a real catch 22, they will not accept any returns except from US Postal service, unfortunately USPS will not ship a box the size of this one! I received it through FedEx.
After the first exchange, they would no longer respond to me.

The only redeeming thing I did was buy with an American Express card. If you buy through American Express, you can dispute the charge and because they won't let you return it and they won't honor their bogus lifetime warranty, Amex refunded my money.

Now I have to find out where to dispose of these beasts!

UPDATE: Recently I was contacted by Patio Sun Umbrellas by email and was asked to retract my review. I declined and they emailed me a couple more times asking me to remove my review. I responded and said no, but it was as if they had never read my response. They continue to contact me asking me to reconsider my review. I stand by my review, it is not unfair, it is a statement of facts.

Their new 5 star reviews are a bit suspicious, lots of grammatical errors and misspellings...

I ordered 2 umbrellas from this company. Everything was fine until I received the order, and I only got ONE umbrella. SO i sent an email to the company, never heard back, called the company talked with customer service rep who says she will try to get the rest of the order shipped and look for an email, no email, call again, same response, again no email, finally called for the supervisor, at this point 2 WEEKS have gone by and I can't get the rest of my order shipped. I just want umbrellas, so I ordered from another company and I talk with David to get a refund and cancel my order and he was very unapologetic and told me i had to pay for the umbrella I received. Um, NO! I want to return it, and he said I could at my own expense, and that I would be charged for the umbrella otherwise. In the end he issued me a partial refund, but im still stuck with an umbrella I dont want and being charged 40 bucks for it! I asked for a call tag, he says the company doesn't issue call tags. So I'm left paying for their mistake. What should have been an easy fix (send out missing product) has turned into a very unhappy experience.

I ordered a 9' tilting umbrella for $99... seems too good to be true... WELL IT WAS.

The umbrella opened in a gust of wind within the first couple of weeks (as they do not have ties on the umbrella fabric) and it busted the CHEAP metal ring at the top of the umbrella. The metal is only slightly thicker than a paperclip.

When I showed photos (see attached) and asked for my money back (or a replacement with which I would just tie some rope around) they gave me two options. 1) only 20% of my money back or 2) they would reimburse me only AFTER I mailed the umbrella to them in Canada! Not having the ripped box that it came in... the cost of a new box that shape and shipping to Canada would have been more than the $99 I spent originally!

They produce a CHEAP product... are too cheap to add a velcro tie... and then after busting a couple weeks after purchase do not stand up to their big/bold "LIFETIME GUARANTEE" plastered over their entire website.

DO NOT... I repeat DO NOT purchase from this company. Spend the extra few bucks to get a higher quality product (with a tie string) from a reputable company that truly stands behind their product.

One star is entirely too generous!

Giving a 4 star because I found it difficult to reach the company after I received the wrong color. They did fix the issue by sending me the right color, so no worries there.

I contacted customer service via email and within 2 days I received a response. A replacement is on its way. This was hassle free. I wish all businesses were this simple and pleasing.

Received an opened box with many missing parts. Within 24 hours of my e-mail to consumer support, I received a reply that the missing parts are on the way.

I ordered an umbrella over a week ago and received a tracking number saying it was shipped but it was never shipped! Called and they said it was out of stock but had no problem taking my money.

When designing my Patio I was wondering n what type of Patio Umbrella I should go for. My Husband recommended to go for the white round Patio Offset Cantilever Umbrella and believe me once we did the installation of the product I could actually see the audacity and authentic beauty that it did to my Patio.

I ordered a new umbrella and when it arrived it was broken. I sent an email and they said they would replace it for free. Do not have to send broken one back.

I received my order quickly and am pleased with the umbrellas. I wasn't real happy with customer service regarding a return, but they did comply with my request. Very reasonable prices.
