Great price for an overhanging cantilever parasol just £39.99 delivered at Aldi.
Available in cream or green for free online delivery or anthracite in store from 18th May as sold out online. Ideal for putting over kids paddling pools or sandpits to keep them out of the sun. Also a few people put them over their lay-z-spas.
We paid about £60 for one in our local Taskers which we thought was a bargain. We bought 4 paving slabs, about £4 each in b&q. Don't leave it up, and get a Velcro tie to stop the wind picking it up when it is down. One downside is that apart from lifting the angle of the parasol up and down, it does not pivot so you cannot swing it around. This means that if you do screw it down or concrete it into a fixed position then you wil never be able to pivot it or move it out the way.

Can't recommend these in UK climate .bolted ours down through decking but a slight breeze will have it bending all over the place with inevitable snapping of plastic hinges.Needless to say it ended up in local tip.
They do look the part though

Isn't that what the 3 year warranty is for?

Various methods of holding these down, in a slight breeze very unstable so be warned!

Perfect for all the rain we've been having and will continue to have!
Heat added for the bargain price though.

Got one of these, had a new patio last year and didn't want to fasten it to that so dug a cross in the garden and cemented the base in to the soil. Used a couple of bags of sand and cement. Definitely need to be fastened or anchored somehow. Heat added.
