Anyone have any knowledge on MODERN LOOKING outdoor umbrellas?

last modified: 6 years ago

Any suggestions or pics? Besides Tucci which is too expensive. Hoping for the flat modern canopy look. Was going to just get Treasure Garden Cantilever 10x13 but hoping it isn't too "umbrellaee" LOL flattest profile with roller base is what I am trying to decide on. Anyone have any knowledge in this? Many Thanks! Tiffany

IMO Tucci is most suited to commercial spaces and the price point reflects that. I think you need to look for one that does what you want like being able to roll around. I have found the choice of more tan one umbrella works for us instead of trying to move a huge one all the time.

Frankly, I think the Tuuci® umbrellas (other than those really flat ones) don't look all that different from any "market" umbrellas considering the price differential.

Thank you. I think they're gorgeous especially the low profile, but they can be a little less warm and possibly better suited for commercial especially given the price wven with a steep discount. I will go to with Treasure Island in Sunbrella Natural as I've had mine for 18 years and 7 moves.. and just now should replace. Thank you for your help...you people are so kind to help

I think that is a great choice (and not just because I have the same-ha)!

Also, before Tucci, one may want to consider a brand called Jardinico. I'm thinking for home cantilevers, I prefer no silver or chrome looking hardware and pole. I thought I did, but now I think it looks too...industrial. Bronze really blends well with trees and things..thinking of doing the "chrome" look with my 8x8 baja shelf umbrella. By the way all, from what I've seen, when you measure an open umbrella, you will see that is is NOT the size stated, rather it is smaller due to the fabric angles using inches I guess once it is up in the hardware etc..Maybe the more modern flatter umbrellas are more accurate-not sure if anyone else has measured and noticed this?

cyn427: does your Treasure Garden Cantilever look pretty low profile/clean or more traditional wish? Any pic to post? Is it white, by chance? I sure wish I could see one, but due to pandemic lockdown a little harder..would love a real pic hard to tell on sites..

Oh yes, that's tough. Are you in So Cal? I know of some places you may be able to get in...I will not receive my umbrellas until the end of August(2020) since it is a popular time and I waited..I will post pic. Going with 2 rectangle Treasure Garden umbrellas-not returnable!! 10x13 "natural" color cantalievers! and a 10x10 Galtech for the Baja shelf in the pool with chrome looking pole(aluminum)cantilevers. The current one I have is a round cantilever Treasure Island but like 17 years old(ordered new canopy) I can send pics when I get it or of the old one...call the shops and see if you can make an appt to come in with a mask!
