The 9' foot canopy is large enough for many people to sit under, depending on the seating you are using.  If you are sitting in something like a chaise lounge, you could fit 2 loungers under the canopy.  If in single chairs, up to four. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 24 Sep 2011 04:41:44 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: 9' Offset Patio Umbrella - Cantilever | Offset Umbrellas</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/9-offset-cantilever-patio-umbrella/#comment-235615574</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Yes, the T-Base allows for bolting down. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 27 Jun 2011 03:15:10 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Quick Ship Sale! - 9' Fiberglass Rib Patio Umbrella - | Wind Resistant Umbrellas</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/9-fiberglass-rib-patio-umbrella-qs-sale/#comment-229885190</link><description>&lt;p&gt;What you've got is a collar tilt umbrella.

If these are Sunbrella fabrics, these watermarks shouldn't be there at all.  Olefin and Polyester fabrics might experience this.  If Sunbrella fabrics, then contact us and we'd be more than happy to try to help you get replacements. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 14 Jun 2010 01:26:32 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Printed Polyester Fabrics</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/info/guides/outdoor-fabrics/printed-polyester-fabrics/#comment-46301421</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you!

Contact us at cs@cushionsandumbrellas.com or use our online form at &lt;a href="http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/contact/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/contact/"&gt;http://www.cushionsandumbre...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;However, if you're looking for the whole push-button tilt assembly, this isn't readily available.  In most cases, a patio shop can repair this assembly, but they have to cannibalize an old umbrella to do this, and these aren't always around.  We don't really suggest taking apart an umbrella and trying to fix assemblies like this anyway, as it not as easy at it seems.  Contact us and we'll be more than happy to try to help you out. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 24 Mar 2010 02:29:35 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: 50 lb Steel And Cement Patio Umbrella Base | Umbrella Bases And Stands</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/50-lb-steel-umbrella-base/#comment-19677392</link><description>&lt;p&gt;@BuLLDoser - Plastic bases do have their benefits, and good ones at that.  We are working on sourcing the right ones for our products.  However, plastic bases just don't have the look or heft of a steel and concrete base.  Using a plastic base on a more expensive umbrella doesn't really match. &lt;br&gt;Thanks for your input!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 09 Oct 2009 11:39:20 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: 9' Fiberglass Rib Patio Umbrella - Middle Accent Design | Wind Resistant Umbrellas</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/9-fiberglass-rib-wind-resistant-patio-umbrella-mad/#comment-17282791</link><description>&lt;p&gt;@theresamalles - yes, you can get this umbrella in a Dual Wind Vent.

I would say that Brick is a little closer.  However, we do have a Terracota available in Sunbrella fabric.  Please check out the fabrics available on &lt;a href="http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/detail.aspx?ID=172" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/detail.aspx?ID=172"&gt;http://www.cushionsandumbre...&lt;/a&gt;, there is a terracota available. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 11 Aug 2009 17:55:40 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: 9' Offset Patio Umbrella - Cantilever | Offset Umbrellas</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/9-offset-cantilever-patio-umbrella/#comment-14661273</link><description>&lt;p&gt;@patricwaldemar - please contact us at cs@cushionsandumbrellas.com to help you get the fabric color you want. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 11 Aug 2009 17:52:35 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Outdoor Throw Pillow - 17" - Boxed Floor Style | Outdoor Pillows</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/17-outdoor-throw-pillow-boxed-floor-style/#comment-13291129</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Please feel free to contact us directly at cs@cushionsandumbrellas.com so we can take care of your custom order. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 24 Jul 2009 16:51:02 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: 9' Offset Patio Umbrella - Cantilever | Offset Umbrellas</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/9-offset-cantilever-patio-umbrella/#comment-13291010</link><description>&lt;p&gt;@Denise - Yes, the Offset does lock into place.  The wind vents help with wind resistance.  However, no umbrella is perfectly wind resistant.  A strong wind might cause some movement to any umbrella.  That being said, this umbrella has always performed great in slightly windy conditions.  We suggest to all of our customers to close their umbrella in a heavy wind. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 24 Jul 2009 16:48:20 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Wicker Settee Loveseat Cushion - 39" | Patio Outdoor Cushions</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/39-wicker-settee-loveseat-cushion/#comment-12938282</link><description>&lt;p&gt;@mkf -This wicker cushion is 39" until it starts to curve.

The patio blocks are placed in the areas between each bracket of the base, to hold the umbrella down. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">HouseAesthetic</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 19 Jul 2009 00:53:19 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Wood Furniture 4 Foot Bench Cushion - Smooth Edge | Patio Furniture Cushions</title><link>http://www.cushionsandumbrellas.com/4-wood-furniture-bench-cushion-smooth-style/#comment-12602270</link><description>&lt;p&gt;@LauraWoo - Kona Chocolate is an Outdura Fabric.
