BEACHBUB Umbrella System - 7.5 Foot (50+ UPF) Oversized Beach Accessories for Families & Beach Goers, Includes Bag, Base & Accessory Kit

Excelente, muy fácil de armar

I was hesitant to buy a beach umbrella due to always seeing them folding up and ripping. This year I decided to do some research since we were making our first beach trip with our 14 month old son and a shady spot on the beach was a priority. Searching Amazon showed many different options which I further researched. BeachBub was by far the best product as far as reviews on YouTube and Amazon so I decided to get one. When it arrived, I was very impressed by the quality (the poles and canopy were top quality and all of the arms underneath were sturdy and thick (not the usual bendable metal that snaps and tears through the canopy.). The items included were clearly labeled which made setup a breeze!!! The only setup that is required prior to the first use is to secure the ring which holds the sand tarp which provides extra weight to the post which makes the umbrella very secure! (One thing I recommend is to push aside the first few inches of loose sand prior to using the sand gopher to dig the hole…I also believe that is mentioned in the directions.) Beach setup is 3 minutes. The provided towel hooks were of superior quality just like everything else about this product and was great to not only hold towels, but a Bluetooth speaker which I hung from a net bag to keep items that I did not want exposed to the sand such as my sunglasses and GoPro camera available for quick access out of the sun and sand right under the canopy. I was so impressed with the quality of this product that I ordered the BeachBub tray table add on accessories. This also was built with the same quality as everything else! It was nice to set up quick and easy and know that my umbrella would still be standing strong when I returned from a walk!!! The shade provided by the canopy is great! There is no floundering of the canopy even in heavy breezes. Sturdy sturdy sturdy! If you are in the market for a quality umbrella system which will last you many seasons at the beach, BEACH BUB IS FOR YOU! Another testament to how good this product is was that it exceeded every expectation that I had with beach umbrellas that I also felt compelled to contact BeachBub via email upon returning from my trip just to thank this company which is MADE IN THE USA, about how impressed I was with their product that they stand behind 100% Thank you again, BEACHBUB!

2024 update. Still using and luving my beach buns. If you are in Garden City Beach SC then you have seen these. This July 4th was one of the most windy weeks I can remember. By the end of the day mine and a few other bubs were the only ones standing. The customer service over the years has been exceptional. I can honestly say this company cares about its customers and stands behind their product. If you want to relax in the beach no matter what comes up. Get the system. It just works. Update:7/6/2016- After a week of sand and surf this thing is still rockin. We have had 20mph winds most every afternoon. No problem here. Lots of people wonderin why mine is still up. Yesterday lifeguard tower blew over in a gust. BeachBUB didn't flinch. Thought I could post a video but guess not. On my way to order another. I don't leave many reviews, but felt compelled to do so here.I am a professional beach contractor. I set up early and am there all day during the summer weekends. I have been hauling beach gear for 11 years now. Several years ago, our beach banned anything but single point of contact umbrellas. Thus begin my quest for the perfect umbrella. Suffering with $20-30 stuff that usually only last a season, I knew it was time to make an investment. I looked towards the style the beach service puts out. I found one here on Amazon made by Franklin. Ordered it upgraded with 8mm fiberglass ribs to ensure strength. Why? because of WIND. I have seen countless injury's and embarrassment from fly-aways and inversion. I want to come to the beach and relax, not panic everytime a breeze picks up. The Franklin performs well, and has proven itself. I set out to find another. Searching here I came across this product and was intrigued. Those of you that know, the market style of umbrella performs very well in pushing winds. The Franklin and others need to be slightly tilted in the direction to work effectively. beachBUB has continually improved their product. After asking for some addtional info I was shocked to learn that beachBUB upgraded from steel ribs to 10mm fiberglass ribs! Bring on the wind. Also no rust! I don't care how well painted sealed etc, after a season on the coast and being stored in the corrosive beach air, anything steel will rust. Here you have fiberglass. The pole? Aluminum. No ordinary pole size either, look at the pictures. They didn't stop there. There is a pin that locks the poles together. No chance of them being pulled apart. Love that it is attached and you don't have to hunt for it the next time. I have long stared at the plastic lever and clamp system wondering how long it would take to come apart. No worries here. The base was all setup right out of the box. Filled up and went up as expected. Everything you need is included. You can even add addtional weight with the included pole hooks. Get that beach bag out of the sand and hang it up! A huge bonus for me was the clearance under the umbrella. I could finally stand up in the shade. The others must be inserted so far that you are crouching most of the time. But the really huge selling point for me was the shade itself. The Franklin is nice, no question. Fade resistant fabric, heavy duty canvas,etc. However, when sitting underneath on a sunny day I could see light through the material. Not so with the beachBUB. Its coated and heavy duty. The system preformed well. I typically use a drill and auger to create the holes needed by most umbrellas to ensure they don't move. This system does away with all that creating a stable base and minimal penatration. Its ideal for my older parents who when I am not around, struggle with the setup of most umbrellas. This quick and easy system ensures that they can enjoy the shade with confidence, no matter what blows through. Thats one of the reasons I get to the coast early. Setup is usually time consuming. Now if I want to take a quick run I am only a minutes away from a safe setup. Take down was just as easy. No sand anchors locked to the poles by rust or sand. I will be purchasing another soon..... for the price you can't beat it.

Great beach umbrella! It is very simple to use, easy to carry, and quick to put up! The materials are durable and handled with care, should last a long time or many seasons at the beach! It complies with beaches that require umbrellas to sustain high winds. We bought a second one for additional shade...very happy with our purchases! Thank you!

First, I own a condo at the beach in OC Maryland. I go to the beach frequently! I've had two other umbrellas since purchasing the condo 5 years ago. They both were damaged by wind and had to be replaced. You can buy the canvas umbrellas with the wooden pole for about $250-$300. These appear to be exactly like the ones that you can rent from the folks at the beach. I have seen these umbrellas come out of the sand in around 30 MPH winds, so I was looking for other options, and I did not want to spend that much money. I almost went with the canvas umbrella when I came across the BEACHBUB. I watched all of the videos and read a lot of the reviews on Amazon. Being an engineer, now retired, I was fascinated with the design of the BEACHBUB and very impressed innovative solution to ensure the umbrella will not blow away. Also, it appeared to be constructed from very sturdy materials to ensure the umbrella did not collapse or invert under wind pressure. So I purchased it. Went to the beach the last week of August. Used the umbrella. The first thing you notice is how well the umbrella is made. Very sturdy and made with high-quality materials. Secondly, how easy it is to set up. I did not use the tool to remove sand to insert the umbrella pole. Instead, I pushed it down to the indicated mark on the pole just by wiggling back and forth. Very easy to do. Filling the vynnl, triangular base up with sand took no time at all, but I used a small bucket instead of the shovel that was provided. After that, the BEACHBUB was rock solid!!! One day the wind kicked up to about 20-25 MPH. Not really high winds, but pretty high for other umbrellas. Most people had to take down their umbrellas. One time a person next to me had their umbrella blow away, which was quite dangerous. The BEACHBUB was barely moving in the wind!!! If I could give it 25 stars I would!!! I highly, highly recommend the BEACHBUB beach umbrella!!!!
