GAOYAING Travel Mini Umbrella Sun&Rain Lightweight Small and Compact Suit for Pocket (Multicolor, 6 ribs-34 inches)

I bought this to travel. When it started sprinkling rain in London, I opened it, there was a very light breeze and it instantly turned inside-out and bent. I put it back the correct way and now it won’t close all the way. It lasted approximately 5 seconds. The biggest waste of money I have ever spent. I can’t imagine an umbrella any more flimsy unless it was made of over-cooked spaghetti.

GREAT

Needed these for travel and they are small and convenient!

Its about as cheap as you can possibly get, but it gets the job done. Not disappointed. Fits right in the side pouch of my backpack. It can be a little difficult to open the first time but you get used to it very quickly.

I bough this umbrella for my trip to Europe. It has everything I was looking for: small (compare it to the smallest umbrella I had on the photo), very light and sturdy. Given the price I should have bought two or three.

I knew this umbrella was probably a pos, but it was the right size for my backpack. It worked once…very well actually, until I needed it again 3 months later and it broke off the handle as I was trying to open it. All the other reviews claim it’s great so it must’ve just been mine? 2 stars.

Umbrella is extremely light and is of good size, not too small. However has some issues: its 1 inch less wide than advertised, also the inner side coating has chemical smell and Ill have to be airing it out in the sun to see if this helps. Also, hard to open, takes quite a bit of force to make it lock into place (its not automatic), I have injured shoulder which created some difficulty with opening it. Ive been looking for short term use small umbrella so the latter part might not be a deal breaker, but if someone expects to use it a lot, they might need to give it a consideration.

This is a good mini umbrella. It fits in my bag and is convenient for sudden rain storms that the weather man failed to mention would come on a day you walk out of your doctors office and your car is a good distance away. Give it a try…it is a good single person umbrella.

Going to the Netherlands in April and needed a very compact umbrella. This works!

I bought a pair of these to keep in the storage compartment of my car doors, so I can have door umbrellas like a Rolls Royce. Ive only used them a couple of times, but other than being a little hard to lock into the extended position, they work quite well. They take a little effort to get back into the sleeve, but twisting as you push makes it easier. Another plus is that replacement door umbrellas for a RR are $600/ea, and these are considerably less expensive, albeit a bit smaller.
