Conclusion
I find this Patio Table Umbrella Stand very adequate for the small patio set that I have (Searcy Creek Mainstays Outdoor Dining Set). I have not tried on a 9 foot umbrella, I do have some umbrella stands for my bigger umbrellas that are lighter that this one and hold up well in the Midwest winds. You will have to test them in your own wind environment. If you would like to look at other Umbrella stands follow this link.
