Having to lose an apple tree due to sever Canker and need shade. Any recommendations for large cantilever parasols that are not just crap that'll break in 2 years. Happy to spend up to £500 ish for quality. Might put a concrete hole down for it.

Just when I browse everything seems the same, just priced differently - the world of Chinese drop shipping!

I have one from ruma.co.uk which has been very good. Got the heavy granite base to go with it as I was sick of previous parasols falling over.

John Lewis sell decent ones - I am sure with a bit of google-fu you could figure out who the supplier is.

I bought a massive one from IKEA. and it's going strong after 10 years.

It's an old v of this. Same name, different colour, and the optional base was a different design,

3 m by 2.4 metres

edit. reading some of the reviews, sounds like my one (cream fabric) was better quality

I bought one from a brand called Outsunny. 5 years on it’s like new and spends 9 months of the year outside in a coastal environment.

Their stuff tends to be pretty decent for the money.

Ive bought a couple of things of theirs over the years.
