JYSK VISEĆI SUNCOBRAN TRONDHEIM Ø300 PRLJAVO BIJELA

Pros

• Robust and durable construction: Frequently mentioned as a strong and sturdy parasol, able to withstand at least some wind. The eight-segment design contributes to stability.
• Easy assembly and disassembly: Multiple reviews highlight the straightforward setup and takedown process.
• Good value for the price: Several users considered it excellent value, especially considering the included base and protective cover.
• Nice appearance: Described as aesthetically pleasing and elegant.
• Includes protective cover: A convenient and appreciated addition.
• Stable base: The weighted base, though large, provides good stability, especially when filled with water or weighted down with other materials like salt. The design prevents easy spinning in the wind.

Cons

• Non-rotating design: A common criticism is the inability to rotate the parasol''s canopy around its central axis. This requires moving the entire, heavy base to adjust for sun position.
• Large and bulky base: The size of the water-fillable base is frequently mentioned as cumbersome and limits maneuverability. Some users found the base''s aesthetics less desirable than a stone-based alternative.
• Potential for rusting base: At least one user reported rusting of the base, damaging their patio.
• Mechanism failure: One user reported the mechanism failing after three months, and a lack of warranty due to invoice purchase.
• Poor quality plastic parts: One review mentioned many plastic parts supporting the heavy canopy, leading to breakage after just two days of use.
• Uneven welding: At least one review reported receiving a parasol with an unevenly welded base, occurring in multiple purchased units.

Comments

The included base, though large and potentially visually unappealing to some, is deemed necessary to balance the parasol and is generally seen as a positive aspect. Some users advise checking the size of the packaging before collecting in person to ensure it fits in their vehicle. The protective cover is also a frequently mentioned positive feature. Consideration should be given to alternative weighting methods for the base besides water, as several users have experimented with salt to keep the parasol stable through winter.
