purchased 8/2020 still using it 7/2025
By Thrashie on Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2025
I bought this umbrella back in August 2020, and it’s still going strong in July 2025. Just wrapped another beach weekend with it—flawless, as usual. We bring it every single time. It’s been everywhere, used hundreds of times, and it’s held up like a champ. I added one of those umbrella hooks from Amazon that slides on the pole—great for hanging towels and gear. Setup? Stupid simple. Pull it out, twist the base into the sand, pop the top on. Just pay attention to the wind unless you want to reenact Mary Poppins across the shoreline. I switch between upright mode and what I call “tent mode” for windy days. Just tilt it, fill the sand pockets, and boom—rock solid. It shrugs off gusts like it’s no big deal. Yeah, the zipper windows corroded shut years ago—but I never used them anyway. A few threads around the support arms are loosening, but after six years of beach weekends, that’s a badge of honor. Still works perfectly.

Older versions are better. Quality decreased
By Michele A Teschner Kovaleski on Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2025
I had an older sportbrella for over 10 years and I loved it! We used them all the times under some harsh conditions with no issues.The only reason I needed new ones was because my old ones started to get holes in the fabric. Ill start with positives. Great size and easy to put up. Newer is not better. I decided to go back for another 2 sportbrellas and the new design and the quality has completely disappointed me. Let me say where we are at the beach we cannot lay these on the ground and must be used as umbrella. 1. There is no top vent on the umbrella. When the wind hits it is a solid hit to the top and with no top vent the space under the umbrella gets hot. 2. Yes there are the windows but if you click the sides to the top connection you completely cover the windows. 3. If you roll up the sides there is no longer the velcro strap to keep them in place. With no velcro strap you use the tie down but that is only on one side and the sides constantly fall down. 4. Quality is lacking. We had the ropes attached during a slightly windy day and the inner poles still bent! Come on sportsbrella . My older 2 had much more wind with no issues. 5. The screw in bottom broke the first day. I used to sing the praises of sportsbrella but the upgrades are degrades. Hopefully they will go back to the quality and designs that work for beach use Needed.. stronger poles. Put the velcro straps back to hold the sides up. Vent the top of the umbrella Stronger umbrella prongs to keep the umbrella from bending
