Does the wind messes up the styling?

I guess that all depends on how much wind you are talking about. Lol The best part is if it does get messed up it's flexible enough to just finger work back where you want it.

No.... Its good for parties but not professional photos.... You will get reflections and creases in the pictures.... Plus its very lightweight.... So any wind will cause it to billow and move.

No. There are ventilation openings on top to allow wind to go through the umbrella. Very happy with the umbrella. Would recommend it. Have had it for 1 year and I kept it indoors during the winter. We have direct sun in our backyard and this helps substantially.

You're welcome and absolutely reduces the noise of wind rolling over the crossbars. I never heard the wind until I put the crossbars on my SUV, once I installed the fairing I couldn't hear the wind anymore.

I would have to agree with Rock Ridge answer, I live in Oklahoma and no problems with the wind. My first season to have it up as well.

It tends to get windy here as long as you have it anchored down with all the doors and windows closed you should be fine. We had wind gusts over 40 mph with no issues.

We live on the beach and it can be quite windy. We haven't had any problems due to wind, but we do have the pole secured on a deck railing as well as on the deck itself.

On windy days I roll mine up. I don' think the metal holding the top are strong enough to hold up to higher winds. I fastened the frame to my deck rails with tie downs and that solved the problem with the wind. This winter I have kept it rolled up. Later on when the weather gets better, I will unroll it and fasten it to my deck. It makes nice shade in the summer.

We live in Arizona where the winds getting pretty strong... so far it has not had a problem... you might want to use a wire coat hanger to keep the reflectors stiffer

My daughters bday party was outdoors. It worked! I hung it with tape off my gutters and on my fence! Looked amazing!! The wind picked up though and it became a hassel. So if no wind then it would be perfect!

No. The canopy material is porous and will allow water to come through. In the rain I don't notice hardly any water coming through as the material sags some towards the middle. I was however surprised as to how gracefully the canopy handles the wind. Good Luck

I live in Florida near the beach and have a lot of wind. I have not screwed the unit down yet but it does make a little noise and move around a little on really windy days. I would say to just try it for a while it may depend on location. the top does a good job letting the wind through.

I deferred your question to my wife, who does the majority of our grilling. Her reply was that she has noticed no issues with the wind cooling the temperature and so far, we have not had an issue with the wind blowing out the flame, even without any type of wind screen.

No wind problems. We use ours on wood floors. We angle the outer panels to provide additional stability.

It gets pretty windy here in Texas too. Since the shade rolls up I don't use it when we have high winds or high wind gusts. Also, I currently do not have the bottom of the shade tied down which allows it to be rolled up easily. If I were to use the shade in a windy situation I would either weight the shade down or tie it down. It is possible to do this to the shade either by tying something on to each end or to permanently securing it to something. However, if you're not using the shade in the windy situation just roll it up and it will be fine.I hope this helps.

Ironically, we have had very high winds with storms over the past two days. No problems with the cover what so ever.Works like a charm.

I have not had mine move in high winds but you could also put a landscape fabric staple over the power lead where it leaves the fixture to make sure it does not move anywhere.
