This is a really great umbrella and have had 2 of them for over a year now, we have just purchased our 3rd one. We keep one in every car, and sadly forgot one at dinner a fee weeks ago. It was never a question when looking to get another one where we should buy it. Its light, very compact and opens up automatically just shy of a full size umbrella. You really cant go wrong here.

When this umbrella first arrived a few days ago, I thought it was broken. No matter how much I pressed the button, and shook the umbrella, and tried to adjust the shaft, it wouldnt open. Figured something might have happened in transit, as the umbrella was in a box with NO protection to keep it from rattling around (a lot) in the box. Practically had to force the umbrella open. But once open, it is certainly impressive in size, and looks well made, with the umbrella fabric that looks thicker/sturdier than a similar, Loleemon 62 umbrella that I have. BUT, then I went to close the umbrella, and it would NOT latch. I tried many times, even pressing the button at the same time to get the umbrella past the button. No dice--the umbrella kept springing open. I started a return process, which took considerable time in a chat, then went to pack up the umbrella, which would only stay closed with the two ties holding the canopy in place. Then a strange thing happened. After I bound the umbrella with the ties to put it back in the box, I glanced back at the handle, only to find that the umbrella had LATCHED closed! Dont know how that happened, but I pressed the button, and this time, the umbrella opened easily. Tried to close the umbrella again, but could NOT get it to latch. Maybe I got a lemon, but then discovered the following... TIP: To close the umbrella, I have to wrap my whole hand around the moveable shaft, and pull the umbrella closed, firmly and quickly, and then it will latch without any problems. Usually with other umbrella, I just have to wrap my thumb and forefinger around the moveable shaft and lightly pull it closed. That does NOT work with this umbrella. Still, all in all, this looks like a great umbrella. The real test however, will come when I actually try it out in the rain.

I really like this umbrella,push the button and poof,it opens, push the button to close it and poof, but, I am needing strength to push it back to it:s snap in place position. Over all good umbrella through.

Supposed to protect better from wind and rain but it’s as fragile as a cheaper umbrella and size definitely smaller than what I thought I was getting

To keep dry when it rain

So Ive had my umbrella for two whole years so far.I wanted to wait till I wrote a review..So here it goes. I live in the Caribbean we have a hot season and rainy season and an umbrella is a must for me.I found myself buying an umbrella every month or two as they would never last..I decided to do some research and find myself a really quality one as I was spending too much money on umbrellas. So I bought this. It had lots of great reviews, its windproof , has 12 ribs instead of the regular 8 that most umbrellas have, made of Teflon etc ( I honestly did not know these types of umberellas existed).This umbrella will completely bend back but never breaks..mine is still as good as new and just closes and opens with the click of a button. I will never buy another brand or any other type of umbrella again..Im a lifetime customer. Only con is that I dont think this company makes larger umbrellas..I would really want a nice large one as this one just fits one person,. But other than that it is 10 out of 10

Works great.

the material feels durable.

Too small, I have bought about 12 different types of umbrellas in past year, some are total bs. Some are wrong sized, most of them fly away or even saying “ Windproof “ , yeah, they just wrinkle up . Belkin golf one is the best. Large, easy , actually windproof . I live at the beach up high & I thought I got a big, that’s a single person sized. 47”?

Ive had auto-open umbrellas for years; wouldnt have any other. But Ive been increasingly unhappy with the manual close. When you get in the car, trying to stay dry while you reach up to close the umbrella is hard. And then the umbrella drips over everything as you try to place it in the passenger footwell. This works well. BUT! Beware when you press the close button, it is an instantaneous SNAP close! I wasnt prepared for that the first time and it really surprised me. When you press the close button, it snaps into a folded shape (a triple fold for each vane, so it gets very small). Then you have to press the handle back to its short length. Its easy to do that without getting water in your lap or on your car seats because the water is contained in the folds. Good umbrella with adequate coverage and (so far) reliable operation.
