The name says it all, of course, a floating parasol looks like it is floating. The cloth of the parasol hangs from the frame and the frame is visible on the side of the cloth. Because the parasol hangs in this way, an open and free space is created under the shade cloth. The parasol "floats" stylishly over the lounge set or dinner garden set in your garden. This leaves room to move and the view is not obstructed by the parasol.
The 4 Seasons Outdoor Siesta floating parasol is on sale punctually.
In addition, 4 Seasons Outdoor is also the best brand when it comes to floating parasols. The garden furniture of this brand comes with a 5-year warranty and colourfast parasol cloths. All in all a super quality that you can enjoy for a long time.
Below, our specialists have given a number of tips that you can pay attention to if you want to buy a floating parasol:
Loungeset.nl offers reliable, good floating parasols from 4 Seasons Outdoor and Garden Impressions. With the right guarantees, spare parts available if necessary and service options.
Please note: they are not catering parasols, but they do offer excellent quality for private use.
At Loungeset.nl we recommend a minimum of 90 kg. But the rule remains: never leave a floating parasol open unattended! If the wind blows, fold the parasol. One gust of wind on a calm day and it can be done with your beautiful parasol. Remember that an adult person with a small beach kite can already be pulled over the beach. What do you think such a large parasol cloth will absorb in terms of wind and power?

At Loungeset.nl you can get a good floating parasol which measures 300 x 300 cm (not including the parasol base) for about € 400. Through us you can think of the Garden Impressions Hawaii floating parasol.
Do you want a better quality than our basic offer? Then you should think about € 650 for a 300 x 300 cm floating parasol. The frame is then thicker and stronger. The parasol cloth is thicker and more colourfast. The lifespan is better and can take just a little more wind.
A very good quality for private individuals? Then you should think about € 775 for a 300 x 300 cm floating parasol (not including the parasol base). You then get the thicker frame, cloth and more simple functionalities. Simple functionalities mean that the floating parasol is more adjustable.
You should not spend more than € 850 for just a floating parasol of 300 x 300 cm (not yet including the parasol base). Then you really pay specifically for a brand. Unless it offers a catering quality that is wind resistant, then a higher amount can be explained.
Please note: a large floating parasol in diameter is of course more expensive and a smaller one cheaper.
The effect of a beautiful floating parasol is open and spacious in the garden or on your terrace. Because the parasol base is next to your garden furniture, the parasol pole in the middle of your lounge set, garden set or table is less bothersome. The space under the canvas is completely free. In our range you will find different types of floating parasols, so you have a wide choice and can enjoy your garden in the shade.
A floating parasol also provides the right protection against harmful UV light from the sun. You reduce the risk of skin cancer, among other things, because the fabric absorbs the first UV radiation. The degree of protection is indicated in UPF. But then it is still important to apply SPF, even in the shade. Indirect sunlight, which is reflected through your windows, for example, can still cause skin damage.
UPF is the abbreviation for Ultra Violet Protection Factor and is mainly referred to in sunscreen. Parasol cloths also sometimes have such a UPF rating. Below we have described the 3 classifications:
Quite a bit of wind and still want to open your parasol? That is possible, but then you have to opt for a catering floating parasol. These are stronger and can therefore withstand a stronger gust of wind.
Take into account a higher price. The price of a catering cantilever umbrella usually starts at around € 1500 and can amount to several thousand euros. We do not offer catering quality floating parasols. Our range of floating parasols are all aimed at private consumers.

A good protective cover for your floating parasol is a must-have! Summer is over and autumn has begun. Then you can store your floating parasol in a protective cover. This way your floating parasol is well protected against different weather conditions and influences. |
A floating parasol can last more than 10 years on average! Of course it differs enormously how it is handled. We know people who ask for a new parasol cloth after 12 years, and we have also had consumers who were back on their doorstep after 2 weeks with storm damage.
Tip from the specialist: is there wind? fold it up and pull the protective cover over it. Be careful and economical with it, then you will enjoy it for many years.
