9-11' umbrella for deck?

Nice deck! We just ordered this one off Amazon. I can't speak to durability because I've only had it a month, but I'm really impressed with the quality. And it tilts. And comes in lots of colors.

The deck looks great!

Not that helpful, but we have pottery barn cushions that are in the sunbrella fabric and they have faded. I would consider a lighter color that is less likely to fade.

We have had two PB umbrellas. I love them. The pole on our first one snapped in a strong wind storm when we forgot to put it down & it also faded after a couple years (it was green). The one we have now (Morgan Stripe) has lasted four or five years & just started fading this year. We actually leave it out all year long (in Seattle area). I think we are going to replace just the fabric part next summer due to the fading, but it has no other issues (no holes, mildew, fraying, pole issues, etc.). I'm too cheap to pay full price, but I think they're totally worth the sale price.

I just got a 9 ft umbrella from Target for $30 on clearance. It was too good of a deal to pass up. I make sure to put it down when we are not using it but It seems like it will hold up well until we build a pergola next year.

Do you have the wood or metal one now?

FYI, the replacement canopies are on sale too.

Oohh! Thanks! We have the wood one.

Your deck is gorgeous! Where is your furniture from?

I've had good luck with Target umbrellas.
