Highlights
Quality
And their fabric and umbrella frame-rib quality is excellent and quite heavy duty.
Extremely happy with fruitree product and customer support.
I have found in mass manufacturing it feels so impersonal and quality is often missing.
I do wish the solar lights were a little brighter but overall, i am happy with the umbrella.
Price
The fruiteam, as the other low cost umbrellas that came in, do not include a weighted base.
Packaging/appearance
The leds are bright, all of them worked right out of the box.
Competitiveness
This is a good looking umbrella with a few features you don't find on some of the competition.
We also have two 11ft umbrellas in the yard area with this and the other three umbrellas.

It does not come with a base so i kind of just buried it in the ground inside the cinderblocks in our patio

Nothing in the instructions showed there is an onoff switch on one of the ribs of the umbrella so i initially just put it up and waited to see the lights

Most items like this have a light sensor so the solar lights only come on when it is dark

Turning the switch to off during the day does let the battery fully charge but even then the lights are not at all bright

They provide a subtle glow to the umbrella which makes for enhanced ambience but not usable light to read or see what you might be about to eat or drink

The lights though the main feature of this particular umbrella they do not work well enough to merit any stars
