US Weight Durable 50 Pound Fillable Umbrella Base Designed to be Used with a Patio Table

So far this seems to be a well-made and good-looking fillable umbrella weight. It has a nice carrying handle so it is easier to move when filled with sand or stones. It also comes with a tool-free, extra-long thumb screw for securing the umbrella pole. I actually bought this to add stability to a metal towel rack I got on Amazon (see attached picture). The towel rack seems somewhat unstable, and I noticed other similar towel racks have a weight like this attached, Note that the center hole for this umbrella stand actually has a stopper about 1.25 inches up from the bottom. This is a nice feature to keep the umbrella pole up off of your deck surface so it doesn’t scratch or rust on the deck surface. Unfortunately I will have to cut it out with a hole saw to slide it over the towel rack pole. But however you plan to use this stand, I would recommend it without question.

This umbrella base is exactly what a patio setup needs when you want stability without dealing with rust or leaks. Once filled (I used sand), it becomes impressively sturdy and keeps the umbrella pole locked in place with no wobble at all. The design is clearly meant for use under a patio table, and it does that job flawlessly. The grip handle makes it surprisingly easy to move around even after filling. I also appreciate the clear guidance on weight differences depending on whether you use concrete, gravel, or sand. I fully recommend.

You should weight it with more than water. Perhaps some sand also

Great product and glad we got right away. We been doing some reorganizing and needed to buy new umbrella and stand. Stand and pole matches although different product sellers. You may add sand or water. We like to use water because we get high winds in Sept and water stabilizes. Sturdy, easy to use, fits poles 1-1 1/2”. Looks great!

Very sturdy when filled and doesn't rust. Yay.

The base is fine, not great but works for what I needed. I filled with dry cement and added water. It’s not completely full at the moment and I will probably HAVE to fill it up the rest of the way because it’s not strong enough as is. My patio umbrella tilts as a functionality and I can’t tilt the umbrella while using this stand because even a small breeze will tip it over. I added a nut and washer to help stabilize the pole in place when tightened. I also added some foam around the pole as well to try to help with stability.

We bought a 50lb bag of washed 3/8” pea gravel at the hardware store for this and that worked great. You want something heavy that will pour easily through the 1-1/4” filler hole and will stay dry or dry out easily so things don’t grow in it. We may try some cat tongue rubber grip tape on the bottom to keep it from twisting on our redwood deck, and maybe some to help the thumbscrew keep the pole from twisting. Update, the cat tongue tape works great, both on the stand bottom and on the inside surface of the socket for the umbrella pole, it all keeps the umbrella from rotating in the wind.

This is a PIA to fill first of all. I had to makeshift a funnel and the hole in the stand was very small. It took forever to even fill in halfway with bagged small rocks I bought just for the purpose of filling this stand. Then when I set up my umbrella there is only one tightening screw so the umbrella stands crooked. I tried wedging a piece of wood on the other side of the umbrella but to no avail. The box had already been thrown out so I guess I’m just stuck with it. UGH

No viene pre llenada, ahora tengo que conseguir grava y ver como la lleno. Fuera de eso se ve adecuada.

Nice handle for carrying when filled.

I was using it to support a Davis weather station on a 20 foot pole. It worked out great. I was a bit nervous but I couldn't ask for more. Filled it with sand and it was easy to level.

Concepto muy práctico, se rellena con arena y mantiene la sombrilla siempre en su lugar. No recomiendo que usen agua.

Only one pin on one side to hold the umbrella pole up so unless you use a really lightweight beach umbrella, it doesn’t hold it straight. Leans so much it doesn’t work on a standard garden umbrella. Needs a screw on the other side to hold it in place
