Backyard Expressions 26.5 Lb Umbrella Stand, Patio Umbrella
This is a free standing umbrella base, not an umbrella. It weighs 26.5 pounds and measures 15 inches across, and its job is to hold a patio umbrella pole upright on a deck, a balcony or a paved terrace where you cannot drill into anything.
The weight is the whole point. It is enough to keep a pole steady in an ordinary breeze, and light enough that one person can move it from the dining set to the loungers without a struggle. The footprint stays tight at 15 inches, so it tucks under a table rather than becoming something to step around.
It cleans with a hose or a damp cloth and lives outside through the season. Setup is a matter of standing it where you want it and dropping the pole in, with no tools needed.
Meet Backyard Expressions 26.5 Lb Umbrella Stand, Patio Umbrella
A patio umbrella is only as steady as the thing holding it, and this base puts 26.5 pounds over a 15 inch footprint to do that on a deck or a balcony. It needs no tools and no drilling.
This 26.5 lb stand keeps your umbrella upright through gusts that move through tight city yards and rooftop decks, so lunch stays put even when the wind picks up between buildings.
The 15 inch diameter base is sized for standard umbrella poles, so it slides on and locks without shims or workarounds on a small patio or balcony.
The finish resists mildew and staining, so it keeps its look through a full season of city sun and rain without special care.

Rinse the base with a hose or wipe it with a damp cloth when dust or pollen collects. Let it dry fully before it goes into storage at the end of the season. No sealing or special treatment is needed.

This stand is built for a 15 inch diameter opening, which matches most standard market and patio umbrella poles, so it should slide on and hold without an adapter.
Yes, the weight is sized to keep a standard patio umbrella upright in typical city wind, including the gusts that funnel between buildings on a rooftop or narrow yard.
No, setup is minimal and needs no tools beyond what ships in the box, so you can have it in place on your patio in minutes.
A hose rinse or a damp cloth is all it needs, which keeps it looking sharp without adding a chore to your weekend.
Materials are chosen to resist mildew and staining rather than just hide it, so it holds its appearance through a full season of direct sun and rain in a small city outdoor space.
Both work. Under a table it sits on the ground and adds weight below the pole, which the table ring on its own does not provide. Check the listed diameter against the space between your table legs before you order.
No, this is a stand for a center pole umbrella that matches the pole sizes it is listed for. Cantilever models hang the canopy off to one side and need their own weighted base designed for that offset load. Check which type of umbrella you have before pairing it with a stand.
Put a mat or a pad underneath if the surface matters to you, since any weighted stand can leave a mark where it sits for a whole season. Lift it rather than dragging it, which is what actually scratches boards and stone. Shifting it now and then also stops a ring forming in one spot.
Under a table it stays out of the traffic by default. Free standing, keep it at the edge of a seating group rather than in the path to the door, and clear of where chair legs slide back. It sits at ankle height, so anywhere people walk in the dark is the wrong spot.
It can, though water left in the pole socket is what causes trouble when it freezes. Empty the socket, keep the stand off ground that stays wet, and cover it or store it under shelter if you have the space. A quick check in autumn saves a cracked socket in spring.
