Anntrue Windproof Travel Umbrella, Auto Open Close Lightweight Compact Portable Backpack Folding Umbrella, Perfect for Car, Purse, Men and Women

This umbrella is great and pretty well built. I usually use this for summer and winter. With the rain season approaching and the hot summers, this is definitely a good thing to have. I am not a fan of the hot sun or the heavy rain. The umbrella is pretty sturdy and I tried a wind resistant test and it holds up. Short of a tornado, it does not flip inside out from just sheer wind force which is nice for those windy rainy days. Even with the heavy winds in the bay area, this umbrellas held up pretty well. It does have enough room for max of two people and will cover the person however depending on the angle it will not cover your backpack. I tried walking around with this with my backpack on and the backpack still got a bit wet but I stayed bone dry which is nice. The switch is nice to have to collapse the umbrella. I am very happy with that. I do not have to close the umbrella down when my other hand is carrying my bag or books. It does not happen to splash water when it closes but careful when you reopen it. The button is not super sensitive. This is great because you will not be walking and all of a sudden the umbrella closes or opens on you. The water runs right off the umbrella and it does not take super long to dry which is nice. What is nice is that I am able to brush off most of the water making drying a lot easier. It does also come with a cover when it is being stored so you can keep it looking neat and organized. Overall I think this umbrella is great to have for sunny or rainy weather. It is light and compact while allowing for full coverage.

Too heavy and is not windproof.

Im so tired of the small umbrellas that wind up completly worthless. This umbrella is very sturdy. It weighs a bit more than the cheaper umbrellas, but you will see that when you open it up it is much larger and stronger than its competition. I havent tested it on a windy day, but it looks like it would pop back if it turned inside out from the wind. The case is a nice addition, although Id probably use a velcro close over a zipper.

The Build: This umbrella is built out of a strong plastic with a rubber inlay which makes this feel rather quite sturdy and I wouldnt be worried about it folding in heavy storms. The auto deploy button is really a nice feature and operates quite smoothly and the button to close also works reliably. It is definitely a quality mechanism and well engineered. Use: I currently have one always in the car and this works great getting in and out of the car and not get wet. Durability: Currently used this for 3 weeks in where I live it rains almost every other day. So far it held up pretty well, the spring mechanism is still very smooth and show no signs of wear.

I bought this for my 10 year old to keep in his backpack but Im going to have to buy another umbrella instead. This umbrella is very hard to close. My 10 year old cant get it to close at all and even I have a hard time with it. It does feel sturdy but it is a very heavy umbrella. Its more of a keep in the car in case of emergency umbrella and not a keep in the backpack umbrella. It is not good for kids.

My umbrella doesn’t work anymore, it’s opening mechanism broke after 11 months of buying it. My use was also very limited.

Very sturdy and great value!

Overall this is a good umbrella. Our issues however have to do with the handle that is too small to grip correctly with our slightly large hands and it shoots out quite quickly and abruptly when you push the button, which may or may not make you jump. Now, other than that, like I said, it is quite a good umbrella and does its job well, especially for the cost.

This opens with one touch of the button. It has to be closed manually. Feels sturdy. Not the lightest umbrella by weight that I have, possibly because of the windproof factor. It is very convenient that it opens so easily. I did have opportunity to use it on a windy, rainy day, and it was strong against the wind.

This is a good umbrella! Does great at repelling the rain, a good shake and it’s dry! It will turn inside out with strong winds though!
