PURPLE LEAF Offset Patio Umbrella Base with Wheels, Sand/Water Filled Square, 35.4" X 35.4" X 7.9"

Works perfectly with my purple leaf 11 foot round cantilever umbrella. Base appears to be well made. I appreciated the four removable canisters with very large openings to add sand and water. Sand was relatively easy to fill due to the large openings in the top of the canisters. Many of the other bases I looked at had a very small opening, reportedly making filling difficult. I was quickly and easily able to add 50 pounds of play sand purchased at Home Depot to each canister. However, a 50 pound bag of very dry play sand fully filled each canister preventing me from adding the minimum amount stated in the directions. I chose not to add water to prevent damage due to freezing as the base will be used in below freezing conditions with the umbrella serving as a cover over my hot tub.However, after filling, the base weighs a total of 268 pounds with a large footprint making me confident that it will be heavy enough to keep the umbrella stable on my deck. The mounting bracket that came with the umbrella was easy to install to the base with the provided four bolts. The mechanism to raise and lower the wheels operates very smoothly. With the wheels down the base is relatively easy to move around my deck. This feature will allow me to move the umbrella to serve different areas. While admittedly more expensive than other available umbrella basis, I believe the quality of this base and it’s features make it a great value for my use.

This base is great, works easily exactly as described. We need to leave it out over the winter and the outstanding customer service at Purple Leaf talked us through how to fill it it with a mixture of water, sand, and antifreeze. The best is easy to lift up and roll around, even with the umbrella on top of it, and we use the entire contraption daily. Truly excellent product and great customer service!

After comparing numerous umbrella bases, I’m thrilled with my decision to purchase this one. It’s impressively sturdy—truly built like a tank—but still rolls effortlessly on its wheels. One standout feature is the wide openings on the four tanks, making it far easier to add sand and water compared to other models. That said, proper setup does require some effort. It took two of us about an hour to complete the process, as we filled each container with a 50lb bag of sand and topped it off with water. Using a rod to stir the sand-water mixture is essential to maximize capacity—otherwise, you won’t get as much water into the tanks. Living in Florida, we wanted the maximum weight to ensure stability in the face of sudden storms, and this base delivers. To complement it, I purchased the 11’ Purple Leaf umbrella, which pairs perfectly. After encountering a minor issue with the umbrella, I reached out to Purple Leaf’s customer service team and was incredibly impressed by their responsiveness and support. They made addressing the issue seamless and stress-free. In summary, this product and Purple Leaf’s exceptional customer service have exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend their products for anyone seeking durability, functionality, and outstanding support!

This was exactly what I was looking for to go with Purple Leaf 10x12 umbrella for my deck. It was simple to set up, just add sand and water. Nice they built it with 4 seperate ballast containers in case you ever needed to move it to a different level. It is very simple to raise the wheels with a crank and then just move the base where ever you need it (on the same level). Because of how the sun progresses during the day this is a big deal to make sure you have the shade where you need it. If I had chosen a stationary base, I would have been disappointed. It is pricey, but well made and adds value to the umbrella utility. Would definitely purchase again and recommend.

Well designed system for raising and lowering the base. The frame and mechanism are a welded steel that is powder-coasted steel and heavy duty - including the swivel castors. Liked that it is a clean design with a simple crank mechanism to raise the base on castors and lower it on separate pads once it is positioned. It has 4 separate tanks for adding water/sand with openings that are large enough to add sand only (which we will do to avoid water freezing this winter). This will definitely make moving or positioning our Purple Leaf 8x8 cantilevered umbrella much easier because we are not sure what location on our patio the umbrella should be. Great product and would buy again.

What an amazing product. Easy to install, perfect to move around, stable to stay put. Survived AZ breezes and winds. Simple instructions. 5th purple leaf product. Very pleased with the quality and customer service!

Everything has gone smoothly with this umbrella order. We ordered on a Monday, received it on a Thursday, assembled it easily in an hour on a Friday. Discovered two small holes (looked like from a staple) in the umbrella fabric and reported it that day; and received new umbrella fabric by the next Tuesday. A video about how to replace it was sent and is very easy to understand. Except for the small glitch (thus 4 stars). Customer service very friendly and easy to understand. The umbrella itself? Sturdy, attractive, and making our patio look good.

One of the best purchases I have made. Heavy duty material. Great construction. Easy to assemble. Comes with four separate fill sections. Large hole for easy pouring and removal. I filled each quarter with 60 pounds of sand because I didn’t want yo deal with frozen water expansion and it’s as solid as s rock. What sets this apart is how easy it is to move. Turn the base crank a few times and it lifts everything up a few inches to expose the wheels. You can then easily move it to another location and crank it back down. Works flawlessly. The base works perfectly with a 11’ Purple Leaf umbrella. Purple Leaf is one of the best companies I have ever dealt with. Their communication is outstanding and they follow through every step of the process. My original order was a bundle of a regular stand and umbrella before I found out about this base. They had already shipped it but let me return the first base for this one at no cost. It’s a great company with great products and I will use them again.
