 A few models of the same also carry a  tilt and lock feature, sense the abilities for offering shade are almost boundless.

It is a must have choice for poolside. A person can also use the same in the water as well.One more advantage of the same is that it can be used to shade a patio table devoid of the requirement  for a hole in the center of the table. Then everyone seated at the table has a clear view of everyone else.

 Factors to consider
