Seaport 9' Octagon Dolce Oasis Outdoor Umbrella

This umbrella is engineered for intense sun exposure, featuring 100% Sunbrella fabric that provides 98% UV protection. Sunbrella is a premium, solution-dyed acrylic known for its exceptional colorfastness; because the dye is saturated to the core of every fiber, the fabric is highly resistant to fading even after years of direct exposure to harsh ultraviolet rays.

Maintaining the appearance of your umbrella is simple. Our care guidelines recommend brushing off loose dirt and cleaning the Sunbrella fabric with a solution of mild soap and lukewarm water using a soft bristle brush. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue and allow the fabric to air dry completely before closing. To preserve the life of the mechanism, we recommend closing and covering the umbrella during storms or when not in use.

A 9-foot market umbrella provides optimal shade coverage for patio tables up to 54 inches in diameter. This size is ideal for standard four-person dining sets, as it ensures the canopy extends roughly 2 feet beyond the table edges to keep all guests comfortably shielded from the sun.

Adjusting your shade is effortless thanks to the integrated auto-tilt mechanism. By simply continuing to rotate the crank handle once the umbrella is fully open, you can tilt the canopy to your desired angle. For long-term reliability, the internal lifting system utilizes a 100% Kevlar cord, selected for its incredible strength and resistance to stretching under tension.

Yes. The frame is constructed from powder-coated aluminum, a material naturally resistant to rust and corrosion, making it an excellent choice for coastal regions with salt air or high-humidity areas. Furthermore, the Sunbrella canopy is specifically designed to resist the growth of mold and mildew, ensuring it remains clean and fresh in damp conditions.

For a 9-foot umbrella used with a patio table, we recommend a base weighing at least 50 lbs to ensure proper stability. If you plan to use the umbrella in a freestanding setup or live in a particularly wind-prone area, a heavier base is advisable to prevent tipping during sudden gusts.
