Yescom Beach Umbrella Tilt 8 ft 12-rib w/ Anchor

Stand recommendation for Yescom Patio Umbrella

Choosing the right base or stand is critical to ensure that your patio umbrella is stable and upright under a gentle breeze weather condition. Center pole umbrellas can use either mobile or fixed bases, but most people like a mobile base because it can be easily moved from one spot to another. Most mobile bases are round, there are also hollow plastic ones that require you to add sand or water to create the weightiness. When selecting an appropriate umbrella stand, you will need to know the exact diameter of your umbrella's center pole.

Learning how to set up a beach umbrella properly is important, as if you do not secure it properly, it is easy to fly off and hurt somebody/something. We have some tips to help you set up your beach umbrella as secure as possible.
Bury the pole deeper
The deeper you get the pole, the more secure your umbrella. A good rule of thumb is about 1/3 the height of the pole.
Use an Umbrella Anchor
All our beach umbrellas come with an anchor already. You can simply turn this into the sand and let the threaded stem provide some extra grip and security. You can also pour some water on the sand to firm it up.

Normally the pole of a patio umbrella has a has a flat bottom and it requires a heavy base/stand, however, a beach umbrella does not need a stand, it has a threaded sand anchor at the end which can help screw the pole in the sand.
