About this product
You know that perfect afternoon when you'd love to sit outside with a book, a laptop or a long lunch - if only the sun wasn't quite so blinding? The Habitat overhanging garden parasol sorts that. It's a generous cantilever parasol that creates instant shade wherever you need it. Position it over your lounger, dining table or even your hot tub. The overhanging design means the pole sits to the side, so you've got uninterrupted space underneath. Black canopy adds sleek, modern style to any garden. This one's built for those glorious summer days when you want proper shade.
The cantilever structure gives you flexible coverage without a central pole getting in the way. Metal frame provides solid support when you need it most. The black finish works with any outdoor colour scheme - contemporary or classic. You'll need a separate base to keep it stable and secure. It's designed for real British summers when the sun finally shows up and you want to make the most of every moment outdoors. Comes with a 1 year manufacturer's guarantee for peace of mind.

Customers Say
Sturdy, stylish parasol with good coverage and easy assembly. Requires separate purchase of four heavy bases for stability, which many found costly and inconvenient. Does not rotate or tilt, limiting sun coverage adjustment.

Good value for money
Good for money! We needed this for our garden to keep our little one shaded throughout the day and it’s done exactly that! Good quality and value for money

Great design
Beautiful and easy to assemble. Great delivery and service. No complaints whatsoever. It even tilts which is a major bonus in a South facing garden

Not sure yet
Quite flimsy connection for such a heavy parasol I’ve the black though and a good size for our garden.

Enjoying the Sun in the Shade
Brought this over the weekend due to the impending heatwave and having young children. Easy to assemble, took just a few minutes. Great colour - will match with any garden. Great coverage.

Not worth the money
I bought this recently, without realising you have to spend another £100 to buy the bases for it, which are sold separately. This is what stops it falling over. Lady on customer service said it was my fault for not reading the description properly. The bases are also completely unavailable to buy either in store or online.

No UV protection
I bought this to for shade in the garden but it doesn’t provide any UV protection. I had to buy UV fabric protection spray separately.

Good Value
Descent quality for the price.
Gruffster, 55 - 64
Does it's job as a sun shade
Overall very good, gives a good amount of shade, excellent quality, should come with the base weights though as it's no good without them, picture shouldn't have it showing a weight plate as it's a bit deceiving.

Hello Katie,
Regarding your recent query about the Habitat 2.5m Overhanging Garden Parasol - Black.
I can confirm to stabilize this parasol, you require a minimum of 50 kg to 60 kg of total ballast weight distributed across its metal cross-base.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hey Suey,
Thanks for getting in touch with us, Please follow these steps.
First, unlock the parasol by releasing the locking handle on the side of the main pole. Then, slide the securing collar up to allow the support arm to move freely.
Next, wind the canopy closed by turning the crank handle in the opposite direction to the one used to open it. Finally, secure the parasol by pushing the locking handle back towards the pole, ensuring it's locked in place.
Thanks for using Q&A.

To return the Parasol to an upright position, you'll need to reverse the actions taken to open it. First, unlock the parasol by releasing the locking handle on the side of the main pole. Then, slide the securing collar up to allow the support arm to move freely. Next, wind the canopy closed by turning the crank handle in the opposite direction to the one used to open it. Finally, secure the parasol by pushing the locking handle back towards the pole, ensuring it's locked in place.
