Which style of umbrella is best for me?
If cost is a factor, Standard Crank & Tilt Patio Umbrellas are less expensive than Market Umbrellas.
Additionally, solid fabrics are less expensive than striped fabrics.
Umbrellas should be made to match your existing decor, in elegant, contemporary, or fun styles, for
example. Pagoda-shaped umbrellas are a distinctive style, perfect for certain decorating situations.
If your umbrella will be used in a windy environment, you might want to consider a Market Umbrella,
which comes with a vent for extra protection. The standard crank & tilt umbrella can have a vent added for
an additional cost. Vents allow moving air to escape from underneath, making a more stable umbrella.
Of course, if you are buying umbrellas that will have to withstand weather conditions constantly (and not
be taken down and set up again), Commercial Umbrellas are the best choice.
