Eight heavy-duty bamboo ribs support a 9-ft polyester canopy to create broad shade over your patio table or lounge area. The natural bamboo pole with a heat-pressed finish adds a clean, organic look that blends with many outdoor settings. A rope-operated lift lets you open the canopy and secure it with the reinforced safety latch to help prevent accidental closure while you sit underneath. The built-in air vent at the top lets wind pass through, improving stability in breezy conditions.
