> 3 dayI love Van Gogh! His use of blues is one of my favorite things about his work. Anyway, I opened and shut the umbrella several times and the mechanism is working properly. Inside it has a silver ling, what I assume to be the sunscreen portion of the umbrella, which I have yet to practice and is the reason I bought the umbrella. When on-ground school starts, every teacher has to take a recess/pickup/drop-off duty, so we are awaiting the Governors decisions. In the past, I used my regular umbrella, and it wasnt effective. Was going to buy a cloth parasol, but couldnt be assured of the SPF. After I use it on the playground a couple of times, Ill let you know!

Greater than one weekI like this umbrella. It shields me from the sun. The Van Gogh print is lovely. The handle seems a little shaky but it works. Overall I like this item.

> 3 daySolid, sturdy umbrella. Fits in my smaller purse. Used during rain & shine without any problems. Good coverage & a nice size.

> 3 dayI have used the umbrella about three times and so far I find it easy to use, to open it you press the up arrow to close it you press the down arrow and hold the handle with one hand and press from the top with the other hand. I just wish the umbrella was bigger to cover more. I gave four stars for sturdiness for the moment.

> 3 dayThe print is very slightly pixelated, which honestly you wont really notice. The underside is lined with a silver fabric which is cool, I bought this for rain but it looks like it could easily shield me from the hot sun. The size of it is perfect and it seems sturdy. You do have to put some force into getting it to collapse so this may not be suitable for people with hand or wrist troubles. Otherwise for the price, its lovely and I really like it. Thanks!

> 3 dayThe colors are beautiful just as in the picture. It definitely blocks out the sun and not translucent like typical umbrellas. I like that its lightweight so its easy to drop in a bag and go. However, just as with almost any umbrella, beware during windy days. Mine flipped and the spokes on the end are plastic and thin alloid so the first gust of wind snapped two in half. I bought another since it does the job well of sun protection.

Greater than one weekIve bought this item a few times in the past, and each time, I could use it daily (I use it both in the rain and as a parasol on sunny days) for a long time. However, this last time I purchased it, it was slightly different from before (i.e., a bit more lightweight and the fastener is now a button rather than Velcro). I was fine with the changes until the cord snapped two weeks after I got it (thankfully, it was only drizzling at the time and not a heavy rain). This is a very pretty umbrella, so its upsetting that its now so poorly constructed. UPDATE TO THE ABOVE REVIEW: The defective umbrella actually still works, but once in a while it would suddenly collapse as described in my first review. I then have to close it completely and open it again (and then itll work fine until the next time it collapses by itself). However, I actually got a replacement for the defective one, and havent had any issues with the new one. So maybe the defect is just a fluke? Overall, I have to say this is still one of the prettiest and most useful umbrella/parasols Ive bought on Amazon. I do carry a parasol every day (Im very conscientious about sun protection!), so have tried several different ones from different sellers, but I keep going back to this one.

> 3 dayLovely umbrella. Pros: offers excellent protection for those with photosensitivity like myself. Small, compact and easy to take with you. Cons: Because its an automatic umbrella, it can close when you arent expecting it if you touch the button while holding the handle. Secondly, if it does close unexpectedly, you must then reset the mechanism by pushing the canopy back into the handle before opening it again. This seems to be a design flaw with all umbrellas of this size with automatic function. That being the case, its a beautiful umbrella that give great coverage.

> 3 dayI bought this because I wanted a more interesting umbrella and this is one of my favourite paintings. However it’s actually a really well made umbrella. It opens and closes by pushing a button, and has withstood some pretty decent wind!
