The recommended filler is sand. I used playground sand and it was dry. Nearly impossible to get into the tiny fill hole. I live in a warm climate so I filled it with water instead. I do like the color much more than the black.

Great product. Made of quality material.

The wind was barely blowing and it broke the top off and the umbrella tilled always and broke ?

[Rewarded Review] I would like to return both of these items

I did not receive these due to something messed up with my bank. I do not use a bank I use American Express

Lightweight and Not Sturdy

We tried these bases on two umbrellas - a 6-foot wide patio umbrella and a 15-foot wide patio umbrella. It would not hold either. We filled it with water, sand, and stones to try and adjust the weight. Nothing worked. The water and stone are challenging to get out of the base so we had to return it with some water in it.

As advertised. Perfect.

Lighter weight than bronze base. Water keeps it sturdy. Nice looking. Great deal.

Was the perfect color (brass, not black) ...matches my furniture perfectly. Who would think you would get compliments on the stand, but I did...very stylish and right size.

[Rewarded Review] Sturdy and looks good

The base was easy to fill. The brown basket fit my color scheme. It was very windy on Sat.

[Rewarded Review] The umbrella stand is perfect size

We like the stand out I’m really fits perfectly

umbrella base

this base looks great and easy to fill. when emptying the water at the end of the season, some of the water is trapped inside. i used the recommended umbrella size to pair with it and it holds the umbrella just fine.

[Rewarded Review] seems sturdy

I've only had it for a day but I like it

[Rewarded Review] Very happy with this base!

Works as advertised. The color is very close to the cafe set I ordered from Walmart. I am very please with this, with one minor exception. The drain hole is not in the most ideal place, It makes it very hard to get all of the water out.

Easy to fill, sturdy, has brace 0n back to hold umbrella pipe steady.

This umbrella base works and was a good price point, however it is a but cumbersome for the limited space under my deck table.

Easy to set up and fill

AWFUL

Too many negative things to say, but the worst being that I'm going to wind up returning it with some water in it, as I CAN NOT get it all out.."easy drain"? maybe if you cut a hole somewhere under it.
