Is a sunbrella patio umbrella better than suncryclic fabric?

I want to buy a UV protected patio umbrella. The options are either a sunbrella fabric or suncrylic fabric. Sunbrella is more expensive and suncryclic is cheaper but it doesn’t say how much UV protection it offers and of course I can’t get through to customer service….anyone have experience/knowledge about this? Thanks!!

Yes, Sunbrella Patio Umbrellas are better than Suncrylic Umbrellas. Here’s why:
Sunbrella:
-100% 8 ounce (or more) solution-dyed acrylic fabric with locked-in colors.
-Stands up to sun, wind, and rain without fading, retaining its original beauty for years.
-Mildew does not grow on Sunbrella fabric as long as there is no food, dirt or other organic matter on the umbrella cover. Sunbrella umbrella fabrics have been tested and proven to give up to 98% UV protection in shade applications and have been awarded the “Seal of Recommendation” by The Skin Cancer Foundation, an international organization dedicated to the prevention of skin cancer.

Suncrylic:
-100% 7 oz solution-dyed acrylic fabric provides colorfastness.
-Cleans with ease.
-Gives extra UV protection.
