Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

ShadeScapes is recalling about 200 Umbrosa Evolution pool and patio umbrellas because the flexible arm/holder can break during use. There have been 21 reports of these arms breaking, which poses a risk of the heavy umbrella canopy falling on someone. The recalled umbrellas were sold in various colors and feature the name "Umbrosa" printed on the arm/holder. Consumers who purchased these umbrellas between March 2016 and June 2018 should contact the company for a free replacement arm.
