Great heater, but some design flaws.
When I saw this heater at the store a couple of years ago, I loved the idea of it. But when I went home and looked at our setup, I saw no space between the umbrella pole and the hole in the table to fit the cord, so I let it go. Then I recently received this as a gift. I was concerned about how I'd hook it up, but it was worth trying since we have some chilly evenings where we like to still sit outside. It was QUITE an adventure to get it set up. Our umbrella pole is a full 2" diameter....the max you can have with this heater. And the cord is t-h-i-c-k. It wouldn't fit in the tiny space left as the pole went thru the table hole so I had to rout out a groove in the wood umbrella pole so it would have a place to rest and not be pinched. Then there was the rest of the cord issues. The cord is only about 8-9' long and the instructions say to not use this with an extension cord. OK----good luck with that. Unless you have an outlet right under your table, that's not gonna happen...
