Tempera 9' Auto-Tilt Scalloped Fringe Patio Umbrella
Most decorative — The style pick — a 9-foot auto-tilt umbrella with a scalloped, fringed canopy that owners run poolside for years. Prettier than a plain umbrella, with an honest catch: the canopy is on the thin side.
How to read a Showdown Score™
The only score that counts how often a product breaks, not just how owners feel about it.
- Three parts add up to the score: what owners rate it, how often it fails them, and whether a credentialed tester backed it.
- Bands: Exceptional 8.5 and up, Excellent 7.5, Very good 6.5, Good 5.5, Fair 4, Poor below 4. Every score is dated.
- Price, the warranty and what a link pays us stay out of it.

Record
- — The buy link was sending readers to the wrong umbrella. The linked listing had died and redirected to the Khaki Stripe colourway, while this card describes the scalloped canopy; re-linked to the live scalloped listing. Its rating re-sourced from 4.1 across 247 to 4.1 across 123 — the old base lost about 508 star-points, so it was a re-pool, not a decline — and the price read $139.99.
