Is it steel or aluminum? Is the fabric like sunbrella or is it canvas?

It is aluminum with a black matte-like finish. The fabric matches my other furniture with sunbrella red fabric perfectly.

It is aluminum with a dark coated finish. Not sure what sunbrella is, but it isn't canvas. Target carried chairs in this same material in different colors. So it matches my patio furniture perfectly.

I'm not positive on either question but, by deduction, it's too light to be steel and its not canvas. It has served us well, especially for the price.

Thank you for your interest. Our material is not the same as Sunbrella's. We use 600 denier polyester. ~Formosa Covers

Its not sunbrella fabric. Its weather resistant fabric which is as close as I can get.

I think it is canvas or at least the one I bought was canvas. A family member ordered one too and it was canvas.

I've already thrown away the box it came in so I can't be sure of the exact material. However, it is not a tarp-like material or plastic. It is also not canvas similar to sunbrella. It is a synthetic in between. So far I have not seen any degradation of the material itself and my only complaint continues to be the narrow fit over the beam. If I stumble upon a tag that tells me exactly what material it is, I'll post it on here.

No the material is no sunbrella. I was disappointed on how quickly it faded in the sun.

I am not sure about the umbrella fabric, however, the two-piece pole assembly is aluminum. The pole is not strong enough for the forces a moderate wind generates, in part due to the very large size (a full 8 feet diameter).

I believe it is aluminum. It is certainly not steel. But it works very, very well and I would buy more.

Yes, it is a cotton twill light canvas type of fabric. Maybe like Khaki slacks kind of. I LUV mine.

Hi A.M. Miller. I just checked the tag on mine and it indicates: Frame: 100% Spring Steel, Sewn Structure: 100% Polyester. It is sturdy, but lightweight and very easy to use ... I love it!

it is a soft canvas type material. it seems to be very durable. I have a shorthair and a wirehair and they haven't damaged it at all. a bit bulky to wash.

It is a heavy cotton - have washed it and it washed well. It feels like a canvas.

Fabric is canvas. I'm not sure of exact dimensions, but it's Velcro so adjustable

Its a canvas material. The material is wonderful and strong. The only problem I had was with the plastic parts at the fold. They broke almost immediately. My husband put a block of wood zip tied into the triangle fold of the chair to give it stability after it broke, but we ended up having the throw the chair away because that really didn't cut it in the long run.

The fabric seems to the a treated material not sure if nylon or light canvas type material. Is not plastic, seems to hold up well. When the sun finally ruins this one, I will try to buy this same type again.

The material is a light canvas, waterproofed on the inside. The frame is either heavy aluminum or medium steel... it supports a 250 lb person with no problem.

From looking online at other suppliers of this TropiShade product, the material is called "sunbrella". I have only had the umbrella for a few weeks, so I don't know how the fabric withstands sun fading. The color now is very nice, a saturated vibrant rust color. They should indicate, and they don't, the led lights are not white, but a sort of deep yellow.
