Product Information

Made from powder-coated aluminium, the frame is lightweight, rust-resistant and robust. Plus, with eight ribs to support the canopy itself, it’s strong too. Whether you’re having a family gathering in the daytime, or friends over for an evening soiree, the Greenbay Cantilever Parasol with Solar LED Lights is the perfect accompaniment to the party – just as useful in the night-time as it is in the day, its 3 x 3 m canopy is fitted with 32 LED lights. Lastly, if you’re interested in having a parasol with an added ‘wow’ factor, you may want to look out for one with features like lights inside the canopy. This can create a really special ambiance and can be a great way to make use of your parasol even when night draws in. You can also put lights inside the parasol yourself. With an overhanging 3 m canopy, this CHRISTOW cantilever umbrella is large enough to cover larger dining areas, as well as sun loungers and paddling pools outside.

Firstly, the basics: look out for a crank mechanism. This will make it easy to raise and lower your parasol. A smooth, robust mechanism will do wonders. If colour schemes are important in your garden, or you’re looking for a garden parasol that will add a bit of variety to your landscape, the Costway Outdoor Cantilever Parasol comes in a range of attractive colours. It’s a great way to provide shade for your patio whilst also acting as a decorative feature (plus, did I mention it’s the best budget option?). In terms of the parasol itself, offering 360 ° rotation and various ‘tilt’ angles, it can be positioned as required – this offers you the flexibility to sit where you want, without the necessity of constantly moving to stay in the shade.

My Top Recommended Cantilever Parasols

Whether it’s raining or 35°C blazing sun outside, Purple Leaf have created a garden parasol that will protect from both extremes. The 240 g polyester canopy is water repellent as well as UV resistant – water will run off instead of seeping through and the colour won’t fade over time. A ultra-durable cover to protect 3m wide overhanging parasols when left outside all year round. Robust PVC material is completely tear-resistant for long lasting use. A drawstring fastening with adjustable toggle allows the cover to be used on various parasol designs. The secure closure at the bottom also prevents ballooning from the wind. Complete with an easy to use design to ensure all users can simply install & remove the cover when required. With four different colours to choose from, including beige and orange, there are options available for both the understated, modern garden and those with livelier themes. In fact, with colours like dark blue on offer as well, it’s even possible to tailor the canopy to match the colours of the flowers in the garden. Although not waterproof, this parasol is water resistant and protects from the odd drizzle – well suited to the British summertime when you’re never quite sure where the next shower will come from. The parasol has a modern tilting cantilever design & 360° rotation, meaning that you can position the shade and the parasol exactly where you need to, without the pole getting in the way.

Thanks to the crank system, it can be put up and down without too much fuss and is easy to adjust depending on the current weather. The benefit of buying a set is that these items can be quite expensive when bought separately. Therefore, a set can help keep costs low. Furthermore, if you buy these items separately, you have to go to the extra effort of making sure they all fit your parasol correctly. In a set, compatibility is ensured.It’s easy to assemble, with a manageable weight of 12.8 kg – the aluminium construction helps keep things light. The canopy itself is made from 180 g polyester fabric – this is both durable and long-lasting, able to stand up to frequent use as well as the elements. Framework (as a whole): Electro zinc plated & polyester powder coated for rust/corrosion-resistance Solar LED Lights: Add 1.2w solar powered lights to your parasol – perfect for those late evenings. Coming with an on/off switch included, these garden lights use sunlight to charge, so are always ready to use.

The Greenbay 3m Banana Parasol requires limited assembly and can easily be put up or down depending on the weather. It’s an inexpensive option that offers great value for money. The polyester fabric is relatively water resistant, so during light showers it should offer adequate protection – this is particularly useful if the garden parasol is being used to cover outdoor dining tables, bearing in mind the UK’s changeable summer climate. This parasol stands 2.5 m high (8ft 2in) and provides ample shade with a large 3 m (10ft) x 3 m (10ft) umbrella. Making sure that the cantilever parasol you are thinking about buying has UPF protection is important. It’s something to look out for especially if you sit outside a lot or have young children. One other thing to be aware of is how much space the base with weights attached will take up – it measures over 1 m across, so it’s worth being sure that you have the room to accommodate this.

Harrier Parasol Table/Shelf

The majority of the best cantilever parasols that I have reviewed in this list have a 3 m canopy. This is quite common, and is a generous size. It gives enough shade for several people to sit comfortably under. Of course, if you can angle the canopy, you can create a longer shadow and more shade, which is a plus. Although there is no ‘tilt’ mechanism, the crank handle makes it easy to put up and down, and it can be shifted from side to side depending on where the sun is. A cover is also provided, meaning the parasol can be folded down neatly at the side of the house when not in use.
