Purple Leaf 12x16 white
$220 cheaper, rated for 72 mph
A 12 x 16 ft all-aluminum Purple Leaf in white on 4.33 in posts, with two louver zones opening to 90 degrees. It carries a 4.8 average on Amazon, the highest in our comparison. The listing does not say how the louvers turn, so we list Purple Leaf's usual pole.
Best for: A sunny patio next to a white or light-colored house
Mirador 111S Round 10x20
$400 more, aluminum frame, steel louvers
An aluminum frame with round pillars, galvanized steel louvers and Mirador's patented drainage through the pillars, 10 x 20 ft. The round posts look softer than the usual square ones. It has a 70 mph wind rating.
Best for: A long patio where the look of the posts matters
Domi 12x16 aluminum
$400 cheaper
Domi's all-aluminum 12 x 16 ft has louvers that open to 130 degrees, the widest range in our list. That lets you angle them against low morning or evening sun instead of just open or shut. It weighs 440 lb.
Best for: A patio that gets low sun from one side in the morning or evening
Purple Leaf 94AS 10x16
$100 cheaper, 40 sq ft less shade, rated for 72 mph
The same 94.3 in tall, all-aluminum 94AS frame as the 10 x 12, stretched to 10 x 16 ft. That extra 40 sq ft fits a grill or a lounge chair next to the table. Shade screens and an LED strip come as add-ons.
Best for: A long, narrow patio along the back of the house with room for a table and a grill
Purple Leaf 94AS 12x16 with shade screens
$630 more, rated for 72 mph
This bundle pairs the tall 94AS aluminum frame in 12 x 16 ft with side shade screens. The screens block low evening sun and give some privacy from the neighbors. The whole set ships at 645 lb.
Best for: A west-facing patio that takes the evening sun and needs privacy on the sides
