Comments about Rio Blue 6.5 ft. Sand Blaster Beach Umbrella:
The umbrella looks perfect. The price was right and delivery came quickly. We'll be taking it to Florida this winter. We haven't had an opportunity to try it on the beach so I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

Love the umbrella and so easy to put into sand with built in sand grabber. Plan on having many years of use. Will be looking for other bargains on BeachChairs.com

Comments about Rio Blue 6.5 ft. Sand Blaster Beach Umbrella:
I was not too happy when I first set up my umbrella. Sand came out of the pole when I took it out of the bag. This leads me to believe that my umbrella is used.

Comments about Rio Blue 6.5 ft. Sand Blaster Beach Umbrella:
Week 1 it worked OK on our beach trip. Week 2 the next year it finally started coming apart in the wind, It's steel ribs are flimsy and flop a lot in the wind. The threads holding the ribs to the underside of the umbrella started to break allowing the ribs to move around on the bottom of the umbrella. Eventually one of the rib supports broke at the point it attached to the rib. We finished the week with a daily duct taping of the loose rib so it would support that side of the umbrella and not flop around loose and injure someone. Bottom line, this product is too flimsy to last in anything but mild breezes.
