The BeachBub Umbrella. Someone always stops and asks about it when we're on the beach. 

AMMSUN beach umbrella is also a good choice

That's a solid endorsement, David. I'm glad to hear that you're 5 years into it and it's holding up well. If I had one wish it would be that they would offer a slightly larger umbrella as another option. Thanks for the great comment. -Tom

but its too small, it doesnt throw enuf shade. i have to constantly move it!!!

@@davejackson3869 wouldn’t is be easier to just move your sitting position in relation to the sun instead of moving the umbrella ?

Actually, just came back from beach and right before, purchased a 10 x 10 pop up canopy. I used Ikea bags and filled them with sand at each corner. Worked perfectly.

There's another video where a different guy tested the beachBUB in verified 30mph winds and, if the video is to be believed, it survived.

@@stevenrheeter6005 I went with a safer lycra beach tent.

I hope you got the tables with it. They are great to keep all your stuff out of the sand, Marjorie. We went for a walk at the beach last week and I saw 6 of these umbrellas in a bunch. I stopped to talk to them and they were all neighbors at a condo unit. One person got one and then the rest followed. This umbrella is solid as a rock! Enjoy your beach trip! -Tom

You will love it

Hi Jim! It's beaching in style, for sure! Hope you're good.

I completely agree, Ursula. And someone always comes up and asks about it. I bet you get that too. -Tom

but its too small, it doesnt throw enuf shade. i have to constantly move it!!!

You are very welcome, Hoikwan. I own 3 of them now. They are great beach umbrellas!

I see more and more of them at the beach all the time.

I've seen that multiple times. It's scary to watch. This one doesn't budge. I've got some other great ones on my channel as well. All will say in place in heavy winds and are easy to set up. -Tom

@@evolutionaryTom Perfect thank you

That thing is rock solid in the wind. I have two of them. -Tom

We've had one several years and our umbrella is open when all others on the beach are closed! The "stand" itself is awesome and works every time, but the umbrella is worth every penny. Have taken it on at least 6 week-long beach trips with strong winds and has never failed to stay secured or failed. Highly recommended. Other youtube videos show it sustaining strong winds.

Adventure Outdoors, I missed the part about stiff wind claims. Can you please quote?

Thank you, Lori.

If others want shade they can buy their own umbrellas. Not a real issue.

I've got two now and all the pros at the beach use them as well. They just hold up so much better than anything else.

If I was a teenager, I would have a drill, auger bit, and a backpack with a few extra batteries. Then I'd walk on the beach and put umbrellas in the beach for donations. I think they would do better than cutting grass all summer. In Marco Island the average age of the beach goer is older and I think they would love this service. Great tip Petey.

I have seen it, Claudine, but I haven't ordered one. I have thought about that though. Might see that soon. -Tom

I'll add it. Sitting under it right now in Marco Island and two people have asked me about it today. Thanks, Tom

No, I have never tried that. It is Saturday but I've never need to block the wind or anything like that which would want me to put it in at an angle. -Tom

Here you go, Sherri. amzn.to/3zEoq8Q

True, but thats the thing Matt.... the chances of this one taking flight is substantially low (in comparison) meanwhile the "regular" ones can simply be searched here on YT for the many horrors stories bc they are destined to be uprooted if not installed well and go straight through ppls legs as if steel. Once the wind is fast enough, either umbrella is a spear. Least this doesnt have pointy tip like many. What you are referring to is a severe freak accident which basically confuses me on why you'd even watch this video bc the only thing safer than this (or anchoring a regular umbrella) would be to not bring one at all. Unfortunately, while some humans dont need any sunscreen, some cases of humans require more than sunscreen... and no- no one will stay locked in their house all summer bc of fear. Thats not a way to live. This is literally an umbrella that encompasses all of the main safety precautions (hollow tube entry, hole deep in sand and an anchor) and youre still like.... what if? Thats life. If a car jumps a curb the next time youre walking down the street it could be very worse than a spear. Odds of that happening are way higher statistically. Something tells me you wont refuse to ever walk down a street again though. So, yes you are correct but it doesnt take away from this being on the safer side when it comes to adequate personal shade devices. Ppl can add extra anchors. Sh* they can even add a cinderblock instead of sand (for my petite ladies i would advise throwing this task to your husbands if you dont have a rolling beach bag lol). If the wind ever gets that bad to move cinderblocks, the owner would have noticed bc clearly a hurricane is on the way lol. Feel free to watch the many comparison tests on extremely 30mph+ windy days of this one remaining solid on a beach of regular umbrellas. It does come at a price- but technically youre paying for the safety odds and the brand knows that lol.

I couldn't have said it better Illanee. AND, I just bought my third one, two for our main location and one for a lake. The function and quality build on these easily make it worth the money.

I have another one at our lake house and we use it on the dock. I have mounted a traditional umbrella stand to the wooden dock, and then insert this umbrella. Holds up to the wind perfectly and goes nowhere.

@@evolutionaryTom thank u

I can't see it on Amazon, Scott. Go to the beachbub website and they should have it.

Great question. NO, it does not have a tilt feature or adjustable height. -Tom

@@evolutionaryTom tilt I could do without, that has been the fail point of the last three Tommy Bahama umbrellas I’ve had, but the lack of adjustable height does kind of sound like a dealbreaker

I just received another yesterday for the very same reason, Dave. Actually, I got it for when we have guests but I can use it for both. That's how I justified the $$. LOL

They are now selling a sun visor accessory! It hangs down from umbrella and provides extra shade...the rotating pole allows you to turn as the sun moves. I'm ordering one for next year!

HJad, if you go to the beach more than a few times a year, it's a bargain. Quality is more expensive but I see those $30 Walmart umbrellas in the trash can, or next to it, every time I go to the beach. -Tom

No, it isn't. And it comes with a padded strap on the side of the carrier. -Tom

amzn.to/3K0yH3C Here you go, Sue Ann. -Tom

Esteban, it's a 7.5 foot umbrella. It's a really nice set up.

It's Marco Island, Florida, DP. -Tom

I think that's a great idea, B. Hopefully someone from Hawaii will chime in. I have a new sun shade review coming out soon. I think it will be just as popular and might fit what you're talking about even better. -Tom

do a you tube search for Beachbub and you'll see several! It's awesome! Have had for 5 years and worth every penny!

@@davidchalmers9818 Then why didn't HE made one?

Because it just wasn't too windy that day. But it was too windy for the other umbrellas you saw folded over.

Worth a lot more than that. Completely in a league of it's own.

​@@legendfpvWhy is it that good?

Go to their website and see the spare parts price breakdown. It might make more sense then. I'm taking my family to the beach in a week and will be testing this bad boy out upon trial set up so I didn't look like a complete idiot on the beach, everything looks to be very good quality..

LOL. Not Me!!! I could never over power the professional party people that come over from Miami.

I wish they did have a larger option. They do sell just the base and then you can purchase your own umbrella and use that. -Tom

If you were set up next to me, James, you wouldn't be able to hear it. Common courtesy is my middle name.

It's not windy everyday here, Tony. It's not sunny everyday either. But I've used that umbrella, and now have two that we set up almost every weekend. They are the real deal regardless of my poor quality video. Please send me a link to yours. -Tom

It does have some heft to it when it's all packed up in the bag, I agree. And some days I bring two of them to the beach! That's when our green cart comes in very handy.
