Serengeti Cantilever Parasols/Off-Set Parasols

Posting date: 4th June 2013 10:00

Dear David

The Serengeti Eclipse Cantilever Parasols in 2.5m Square are bulk order only item and we do not have stock. We do have stock of the 3m Serengeti Eclipse in taupe or natural.

Alternatively, there is the Spectra Off-Set parasol in 2.5m square in natural in sunbrella or premium fabric. The terms "cantilever parasol" and "off-set parasol" are commonly used to describe any side post parasol as compared to a centre post parasol.

The Umbrosa catalogue attached gives details of the Spectra

Having discussed your order with your partner today, I understand that you have a problem with wind gusting on your patio. The best option is always to secure a parasol to the ground, but if you cannot, you can opt for extra weights on your base. A cantilever parasol is more susceptable to wind than a centre pole parasol so you may want to consider a Tradewinds parasol with an extra heavy base, for example, as an alternative.

I look forward to hearing from you - Claire
