The pictures make it look like there is a tee handle halfway up the pole and the base is like a corkscrew. Are the images accurate?

Haven't gotten it out this year but the bottom is not a corkscrew This is not as good as I had hoped in a breeze. It does tilt.

Mine has no handle, and the bottom is smooth. They might have updated the product, but if not, the image is not accurate. Also, in case it matters: this will not fit in a standard deck umbrella stand, as it is too narrow. I found that out after buying it. =(

Umbrella has push button in the middle of the pole so half the pole can be stored and carried in the bag it comes in. Unit works very well we use several on our back patio tables for color and shade.

There is a rod hooked to a chain halfway up. It goes threw the pole and is used a handle to screw it into the sand. Works Great

Mine does not have the t handle or the corkscrew bottom. But it is a good value. As I had been pricing them for a while. We have aplace at the beach where we use it all the time. I use it in a base too with a piece of rubber around the pole since it is more narrow then the stand ones. I would buy again!Amy B

I agree, This picture is deceiving. I too bought this thinking it was 3 bars on three different poles and it is not. Very disappointed.I wish I would have read this answer before I purchased.

The handle appears to be a hard wood. I LOVE this tool. It makes gardening a joy.

I thought you meant the spout. After reading your question again, the actual handle does swing up and down, left and right. Hope that is helpful.

It has a cork handle but the handle is located "above" the reel. There isn't cork below where the reel attaches to the rod. Hope this helps.

Mine is pointed, just as it appears in the picture. Very solid, have not actually put it to the "test", but I am satisfied with it. I would contact the manufacturer, sounds like a defect to me.

I purchased the exact same stand and would be happy to help you. I believe the base came intact (at least I think I remember it that way). The square pole with the turning handle on it attaches to the stand with the handle toward the top of the post. The long side of the 90 degree pole slides down into the pole with the turning handle. The turning handle is used to tighten and hole the 90 degree pole. The neck loop attaches to the ring at the top of the 90 degree pole. I found the base a little stiff to turn once it was all put together but I think that's better than having it too loose. I hope these instructions are helpful. Good luck and have fun!

I'm sure the pole itself is hollow considering the overall weight of it. However the foot\clamp that's on the pole is welded onto it. The foot\clamp would have to be cut off for you to do that. The grabber foot is designed to slide over a desk edge then screw clamped down to secure it to the desk edge. You would probably want to look elsewhere for something like your talking about or have one fabricated to your needs. But in short yes the pole itself is hollow.

The pole I ordered is for the house. There is a different pole for the gourds.

Here's a picture at this site that looks like it. http://www.elderdepot.com/product_image.php?imageid=3757

it is sort of polished....I have mine mounted directly under Regular Stainless Steel STARR "X" Wall Mounted Bottle Opener....matches and works perfectly together.

The one that I received from Amazon is not like in the photo. Mine has a small round knob on the extension. The knob at the elbow looks to be like the photo. I don't have any complaints about it.

Sorry in the delay. Just found out. It should be used with the base because the bottom of the pole is just flat. I guess you could dig a deep hole and put it in. There may be other models with a corkscrew bottom. Hope this helped.

Yes is is. It was confusing to me also, but it is the tool. You will need to purchase a pole that it screws onto.

The base is not perfectly round. I'm not sure of the name for the shape but it is basically an oval with squared off sides. One side slightly larger than the other. It could also be described as a "D" with the left corners of the "D" slightly rounded. Hope this helps.

The pole is very dark. When you look at it closely it is almost like a barber pole but black with dark bronze. The base is black. The bulbous top is very attractive near black with the raised design dark brown. I find the lamp to be very nice looking and have received complements on it.

No. It's a standard straight cane tip at the base. Very sturdy, and my wife gets a lot of compliments on the floral design.
