Cantilever parasol base with wheels

Updated: 22.10.2026

The canopy hangs to one side of the pole, and the new listing has wheels in the title. A cantilever parasol base with wheels has to be the foot that offset frame was built for. Wheels on a market-umbrella socket do not convert it. We checked the eight amazon.co.uk rows in the [parasol base with wheels comparison](/hub/sun-shades/parasol-base-with-wheels) on 21 October 2026. We did not fit a banana parasol to any of these shells. A qualifying purchase through our links can earn a commission at no extra cost to you. If your parasol is a straight pole through a table, you want the [parasol base with wheels buying guide](/hub/sun-shades/parasol-base-with-wheels/sub/parasol-base-with-wheels-buying-guide) instead. This page is the no, and the one title that says yes without a review.

An offset parasol loads the base sideways

A cantilever holds the canopy out on an arm, so the base has to resist a sideways pull. Extra fill in a centre socket does not add the cross. Opal and Plia put a 2.7–3 m centre pole near 40–50 kg and a cantilever of that span near 80–100 kg, assuming the foot already matches the frame. None of these eight claims a wind class. Bolton Council's 25 mph line is for one parasol sheet, not these shells. A bolted foot, or a parasol with mains lighting, is a fitter's job.

Casafield says no; the market shells never say yes

Casafield is the row in this set that states the exclusion. The bullet says the base is not suitable for offset or cantilever models. The other market rows never say yes. Both AOSTD shells, COZEER, RAOKUKH, Digury, and DorBuphan print market or patio umbrellas, not a cross. A heavier AOSTD combined fill of 140 lb is about 63.5 kg, still under the 80–100 kg cantilever rule of thumb, and still a centre socket. The jobs and the skips are on the best parasol base with wheels page.

Cococheers is a title claim, not a reviewed cross

Cococheers, at £179.99, is the only title in this set that says cantilever parasol base. It describes four castors and a handle on a metal cross, two filling ports, two side drains, and a maximum of 150 kg when filled with water. It does not give a sand kilogram, a litre, or a pole diameter. There is no star line. One bullet describes a Purple Leaf parasol that is not in the parts line. Confirm the pole on the live page. Filling stays on the parasol base water or sand page, and only the figures this listing prints.

A cantilever listing names the frame

A purpose-made wheeled cantilever base, on UK shop pages that are not these ASINs, usually shows the cross and the fixing. B&Q's Outsunny page describes a cross, two wheels, and about 80 kg of water, 90 kg of sand, or 100 kg mixed. Those numbers are not the Cococheers claim. If your manual names a plate or a bolt spacing, a generic most parasols line does not satisfy it. Cococheers does not print those millimetres. Casafield has opted out. The six market shells never opted in.

Common questions

Why is a heavier centre-pole base still wrong for a banana parasol?
The frame needs a foot that takes a sideways load, usually a cross with a stated fixing. Extra sand in a vertical socket does not build that cross. The 80–100 kg band from Opal and Plia is a rule of thumb for a 2.7–3 m cantilever that already has the right base.
Which row in this set says it is not for offset or cantilever models?
Casafield. The bullet says it is not suitable for offset or cantilever models, next to a pole range of 1–2 in and two caster wheels. The price in the file is £62.87 and the load line is 45.36 kg.
Which title in this set says cantilever, and what is missing from that file?
Cococheers. The title says cantilever parasol base. The file has no pole diameter, no sand kilogram, no star line, and no review texts. It does describe four castors on a metal cross and a 150 kg water claim. A Purple Leaf canopy is mentioned in a bullet and is not listed as an included part.
Is 150 kg on the Cococheers title a measured weight?
No. It is the seller's maximum when filled with water. This file has no review and no litre figure to check it against. Shop guides use about 80–100 kg as a rule of thumb for a 2.7–3 m cantilever.
What does a purpose-made wheeled cantilever base usually include that a market shell does not?
A cross, and often a bolt pattern or a named frame, plus a fill or a fixed weight aimed at the offset load. B&Q's Outsunny description includes a cross and two wheels, with its own 80 kg, 90 kg, and 100 kg lines. Those are not this comparison's products.
What filled-weight band do UK shops use for a 3 m cantilever, as a rule of thumb?
Opal and Plia use about 80–100 kg for a cantilever around 2.7–3 m, against about 40–50 kg for a centre pole of that span. Other shops disagree, so the band is not a standard. A 19 litre water fill is a different class, and only if the cross is already the right one.
Can wheels on a cross replace the parasol maker's foot?
Only if that maker's foot is what the listing is. Wheels let you move a base that already fits. Chimes' note that one wheeled cantilever base does not fit one cantilever range shows the word is not enough. If your manual names bolts or a plate, match those, or leave it to a fitter.
