Dear Family Mom and Dad,
You’re not alone in feeling frustrated with wobbly, unreliable patio umbrella bases. So many families have shared your pain.
We’ve all been there—trying to tighten a loose tube for the second or third time, only to have it loosen again. Or worse, the bolt has rusted solid, making it impossible to adjust.
And who hasn’t watched helplessly as their umbrella sways like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, worrying it might take a trip to the neighbor’s yard?
On top of that, moving a heavy umbrella stand feels like a back-breaking chore, especially when you’re just trying to enjoy your patio.
And let’s not forget the worry when little feet are running around, risking a painful collision with hard granite or concrete bases—ouch!
If any of this sounds familiar, don’t worry. The Baser patio umbrella base has been the solution for over 20,312 families just like yours, offering a safe, sturdy, and easy-to-move base that brings peace of mind to your outdoor space.
Grandpa Arne, just like you, went through 10 different patio umbrella bases—each one either rusted, broke, or left him with an aching back.
That's when he said, "Enough!p
He wanted a patio umbrella base that:
1. Was easy to move and simple to put together
2. Fit the patio umbrella perfectly, without needing a tube
3. Stayed stable, even in those strong autumn winds
A patio umbrella base that actually works
That’s why Grandpa Arne decided to make his own. It’s tough, gentle on your toes, and easy to move around. Plus, it features a sleek Danish design that lasts season after season.
Say hello to Grandpa's patio umbrella base.
For the price of a Baser, I could get 7 plastic umbrella bases or almost 2 granite ones!
At Baser, we’re all about honesty — so yes, a Baser costs more than your standard water-filled plastic base or a granite one from China.
Sure, you could buy 7 plastic bases for the same price, or a cheaper granite stone, but we don’t shy away from that.
Comparing Baser to those options? That’s like comparing apples to oranges.
If you can get your 10-foot patio umbrella to stand steady in a little plastic base or a 40-pound cast stone, give me a call—I’d love to see it!
And if saving a few bucks on a 100-pound granite base means you’re okay with lifting that weight every time you need to move your umbrella, then that’s your call.
But wait, don't bases come with wheels?
Yep, but be sure your patio is perfectly flat—those tiny wheels don’t roll so well on uneven surfaces. And don’t be surprised if, over time, the stand's weight crushes the wheels.
If you go with wheels, don’t forget to tighten the pole regularly—it tends to loosen over time. And make sure you don’t overtighten the screw while trying to keep the umbrella from flying off, or you might end up damaging it. Sounds like fun in the summer heat, right?
Now, a Baser base might cost a bit more, but trust me—you won’t regret it. You’ll be thrilled with your purchase, I guarantee it.
And don’t worry, I’ve got your back. If you don’t think your Baser base is stable or meets your expectations, we’ll buy it back—no questions asked, and I’ll even cover return shipping.
But I doubt you’ll need it. The Baser base is top-notch and built to exceed your expectations, just like it has for so many happy customers.
Forget chasing unstable patio umbrellas around the yard. Sit back and relax in the shade with Baser’s patio umbrella stand.
We’ve all been there.

Stability is the most important factor when choosing a patio umbrella base.
This is what comes up most in negative reviews of traditional umbrella stands.
And yes, stability is key—it's what hits the mark.
After all, having a stable base that’s easy to move is pretty important when the sun shifts, or you want shade on the other side of the yard. 😉
And by the way, the Baser patio umbrella stand is super kid-friendly.
The sandbags are soft, perfect for dancing and jumping on. Plus, kids love hosing them off—it’s like an endless source of fun!😄
It doesn’t look like a typical patio umbrella stand!
Different? Absolutely. A Baser patio umbrella base isn’t your ordinary stand...
If it were, it would come with all the same problems most patio umbrella stands have.
According to customer reviews, the Baser patio umbrella base is much smarter and easier to use compared to others on the market.
In fact, the Baser patio umbrella stand has earned a 4.8 out of 5-star rating for its ability to securely hold your umbrella, proving just how well it performs.
So, what’s the patio umbrella base made of?
Grandpa said, “It has to be made of plastic..
And I thought... plastic? Really?
I mean, we’ve all sat in those flimsy white plastic chairs that snap under pressure.
But, as always, Grandpa was ahead of the game.
He suggested using the same type of plastic that’s used in cars and engine parts.
It’s called PA6.30—better known as glass-fiber reinforced nylon.
Little did I know, glass-reinforced nylon is one of the toughest and most widely used thermoplastics in the world.
Using this material for the Baser patio umbrella base makes it incredibly strong and durable, yet flexible enough for outdoor use—whether it’s sunny or rainy.
In short, glass-reinforced nylon is the perfect material for a patio umbrella base, offering the strength and flexibility that metal or granite simply can’t match.
And here’s the best part—it’s sustainable!
Now, you might be wondering—how can plastic be sustainable?
Well, we use Ravamid® ECO polyamide, made from recycled industrial waste and old fishing nets. This material is transformed into new patio umbrella bases in Denmark, powered by wind and solar energy.
So yes, it’s good for you and good for the planet.
When you have a Baser patio umbrella base on your patio, you’ll be helping to recycle about 4.4 lbs of plastic waste and old fishing nets.
What Are the Weight Bags Made Of?
Not only is the frame produced in Denmark using renewable wind energy, but the sandbags are crafted from high-density, 7.1 oz/yd² solution-dyed polyester, made from GRS-certified 100% recycled plastic bottles.
Each sandbag helps recycle an average of 3.6 oz of plastic—that’s the equivalent of about 5.1 plastic bottles.
The weight bags are stitched with industrial-strength thread for long-lasting durability.
We also use a 100% PFAS-free water-repellent to avoid harmful chemicals, making our sandbags not only tough and reliable but also a safe, eco-friendly choice for keeping your umbrella secure and steady.
And no, this isn't greenwashing. Baser is a small family business, and we care about the world we’re leaving behind for our children. That’s why we’re committed to making a positive impact on the environment.
For us, sustainability, ethics, and profitability go hand in hand.
Every time you choose a Baser patio umbrella stand with sandbags, you're taking one small step toward a greener future.
Just throw away the instructions… Grandpa made sure even Grandma could assemble a Baser patio umbrella base.
If you had met Grandpa and Grandma, you’d quickly understand why our stand is so easy to put together.
Because Grandma? She can even manage to assemble Lego the wrong way.
She’s a master at turning simple instructions into a challenge, even when she follows them perfectly!
That’s why Grandpa designed the Baser patio umbrella base to assemble in just 5 easy steps—so simple that even Grandma can do it without feeling like Bambi on ice.
And best of all, say goodbye to screws or bolts that constantly need tightening all summer long.
No more crooked patio umbrellas swaying in the breeze, looking both unstable and unsightly.
Just fill the sandbags, fit the pieces together, attach your umbrella, and press the ring down firmly.
Then your umbrella will stand straighter than ever.
OK, I'm in! Bases with loose tubes isn’t the smartest choice, and sandbags are pretty cool and stylish.
So, what makes a Baser patio umbrella base unique?
Well, for starters, it does exactly what a patio umbrella base should do—keep your umbrella stable so you can enjoy a relaxing summer lunch or barbecue.
The Baser patio umbrella base is designed to fit all pole diameters, making it easy to move and incredibly stable, no matter where you place it.
And the best part? We’ve made it as sustainable as possible.
If you’ve ever owned one of those complicated, heavy, or rust-prone umbrella stands, you’ll know exactly what we’re talking about.
Maybe you already have one of those in your yard—the one with a loose tube or a 100-pound base that’s impossible to move.
If that sounds familiar, check out my video below where I show you which Baser patio umbrella base is perfect for your patio or balcony.
Stop wasting money on stone bases with wobbly tubes!
How Heavy Should the Patio Umbrella Base Be?
The Right Stability in Windy Conditions
The Right Weight is Key
We know that choosing the right base for your patio umbrella can be tricky—especially when it comes to finding the perfect weight.
Here’s a simple rule of thumb:
For smaller patio umbrellas (up to 8 feet), a 66 lb base works just fine. For larger umbrellas (up to 10 feet or 8x8 feet), we recommend an 88-110 lb base to keep things steady. If you live in a windy area, go for a solid 110 lb base to make sure your umbrella stays in place. In less windy spots, a 66 lb base will do the job for patio umbrellas ranging from 8 to 9 feet.
Beyond weight, the design of the base is crucial. It needs to securely hold your umbrella in place—issues like loose tubes and rusted screws can quickly lead to instability. That’s where Baser’s patented umbrella base comes in, offering a firm, long-lasting grip so you can enjoy your outdoor space with confidence
Heavy duty or Original?
Stop it from falling over
Secure and Stable
Remember? Grandpa invented a patio umbrella base after getting fed up with his umbrella constantly toppling over in the breeze. Surprisingly, it’s not just about the weight of the base. A key part of keeping a patio umbrella steady is making sure it’s properly secured. Tightening the tube and screws or locking the ring in place often does the trick.
Living in a breezy area? You might need a heavier patio umbrella stand. Here’s a helpful tip: if your umbrella is tilted, add an extra Baser sandbag to the opposite side for extra support.
At Baser, we offer two types of patio umbrella bases with weight bags: the Original and the Heavy Duty. While our Original model provides solid stability, the Heavy Duty version, with its larger frame, offers even more support — perfect for windier areas. If you live in a gusty spot, the Heavy Duty base will give you that extra peace of mind.
What Makes a Good Patio Umbrella Stand?
The Best Patio umbrella Base
Weather-resistant & a Firm Grip
Wondering what makes the best patio umbrella base? At Baser, it’s all about finding the right balance between weight, stability, and a perfect fit for your umbrella. The ideal base should be made from durable, weather-resistant materials that can withstand outdoor conditions, with a secure mechanism to keep your umbrella firmly in place.
Since most umbrella bases live outside year-round, we recommend avoiding materials like iron, which can rust easily and damage both the base and your patio surface.
To ensure your umbrella stays steady, most stands use a tube and screw system. However, these can loosen over time as the umbrella moves. That’s why we’ve developed our patented locking system at Baser. It’s designed to keep your umbrella secure without constant adjustments, so you can enjoy your sunny days with peace of mind and reliable shade.

Stable and Easy to use
If you're considering using a Baser patio umbrella base for your cantilever umbrella because it feels unstable in the wind, it's important to know that Baser bases are specifically designed for center-pole patio umbrellas and aren't suitable for cantilever models. However, if you're looking for stability for your cantilever umbrella, we recommend checking out Baser's range of weight bags designed for cantilevers.
These weight bags provide the stability and support your cantilever umbrella needs, ensuring it stays secure and upright, even in windy conditions. They’re the perfect solution for keeping your cantilever umbrella balanced and steady.

Portability – A heavy base is important, but how will you move it? While bases with wheels work on smooth surfaces, a base with sandbags is much easier to move—even your kids can do it!
Material – If you want your umbrella to last for years, choose a base with rust-free, low-maintenance materials like our rust-free patio umbrella base
Pole diameter – Your umbrella needs to fit snugly into the base to stay secure, even in the wind. Most patio umbrellas have pole diameters between 0.8 and 2.2 inches.

How Heavy Should My Patio Umbrella Stand Be?

For umbrellas we recommend a 110-lbs base for 11 feet, 88 lbs stand for a 10 feet patio umbrella and 66 lbs for a 9 feet.
Is There a Universal Patio Umbrella Base?
