Umbrella bases can be more than just something to keep umbrellas from falling down. Even when they are for use under a table, their color and style can enhance décor. The figures below can help you decide what size base you need. We recommend the heaviest base possible to help reduce the likelihood of damage due to wind, weather, or other damaging forces.

Umbrella set inside a table:
6 ft. = 30 lb.
7.5 ft. = 30 lb.
8.5 ft. = 50 lb.
9 ft. = 50 lb.
11 ft. = 50 lb.

Freestanding umbrella:
6 ft. = 50 lb.
7.5 ft = 50 lb.
8.5 ft. = 75 lb.
9 ft. = 75 lb.
11 ft. = 75 lb.

Another essential consideration when choosing an umbrella base is its size or diameter. If you are planning to use the base under a table, check to make sure that the space between table legs--or the space needed for chair legs--leaves sufficient room for the base.
