The Double Offset Patio Umbrella
The first option in the multi canopy patio umbrella is commonly referred to as the Double umbrella. This shade umbrella features one pole with two umbrella canopies off of the single post. This allows for double the shaded area. The benefit to this umbrella is not losing the space that a second post and base would occupy. This patio umbrella is featured in two sizes, a 10×20’ and a 13×26’. Therefore, with the 10×20’ patio umbrella, there are two 10×10’ canopies from the single post. And in the 13×26’ Double umbrella there are two 13×13’ umbrella canopies from the single umbrella post. The Double Umbrella is a very popular commercial patio umbrella, as it doubles the shaded area.

Although, the cantilever patio umbrella is becoming increasingly popular these days, many still are unfamiliar with this terminology. The cantilever umbrella is also referred to as the offset patio umbrellas. Simply said, the cantilever umbrella is a patio umbrella that has the umbrella post located to the side of the sunshade. Therefore, the sunshade is offset from the pole, hence the other name for these umbrellas is offset patio umbrellas. And yet to just confuse you more, it has yet another name is the side post umbrella. The advantages of having the sunshade of the patio umbrella located to the side, is that there is no wasted space due to the space of the post of the patio umbrella. So, whether you call it a cantilever umbrella, offset umbrella, or even a side post umbrella it may be the right option for you!!

Winter is almost upon us, so why would anyone buy a patio umbrella in the winter months?
Well, for people in the Southern States winter is the best ime to think about investing in outside products. As winter in the Southern and warmer states is the best time of year to enjoy the outdoors. In addition many manufacturers are offering sales and specials for their outdoor products. So, you can many times get a great deal on a centerpost umbrella or an offset umbrella.
For people in the Northern states, although winter is not the time to enjoy the outdoors, it is also a great time to buy a sidepost umbrella or a market umbrella. Stores in the Northern areas are looking to make room for the cold weather items and out summer seasonal items on clearance for great prices.
So, even if winter does not seem like the best time to invest in outdoor products, such as patio umbrellas, think about purchasing your patio umbrella 
now and beat the summer rush!
