La Mesa Cove 13' Natural Outdoor Curve Cantilever Umbrella with Base and Stand

This 13-foot octagonal umbrella is designed to provide substantial, flexible coverage, making it an ideal choice for larger outdoor settings. It comfortably shades rectangular dining tables up to 108 inches in length. Because it uses a cantilever (or side-post) design, you can position the shade directly over your seating or dining area without a central pole obstructing your view or limiting your furniture arrangement.

Stability is critical for a large-scale shade, and this model is specifically engineered for it. It includes a heavy-duty, 400-pound sand-weighted base constructed from durable high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic and powder-coated aluminum. This significant weight capacity provides the necessary counterbalance to keep the 13-foot arm secure. While no umbrella should be left open during severe storms, this robust base and curved frame design offer exceptional stability for standard outdoor use.

This umbrella features a highly versatile adjustment system designed for effortless operation. You can achieve full 360-degree rotation by simply using the integrated foot pedal, allowing you to track the sun without moving the heavy base. Additionally, it features a hand-crank opening mechanism and a sophisticated front-to-back tilting feature. Once you find the perfect angle to block the glare, the canopy can be locked into place for consistent shade.

The canopy is crafted from 100% Sunbrella® fabric, which is widely recognized for its superior outdoor performance. This material offers 98% UV protection and is solution-dyed, meaning the color is integrated into the core of the fibers to resist fading even in intense sunlight. Based on our expertise with high-end outdoor materials, we recommend Sunbrella because it is also inherently resistant to mold and mildew. To maintain its appearance, our care guide suggests simply cleaning the fabric with a soft brush and a mild soap solution.

Yes, the pole and structural components are crafted from rust-proof, powder-coated aluminum with a durable bronze finish. Aluminum is naturally resistant to corrosion, making this umbrella an excellent choice for humid environments, lakeside properties, or coastal homes where salt air can quickly degrade lesser materials like steel. The use of HDPE plastic for the base further ensures that the entire unit remains weather-resistant and maintains its structural integrity over time.
