Newsight 16-Rib Auto Open Stick Umbrella - Windproof Dual Fiberglass Ribs, Waterproof Seamless Canopy, High-Density 230T Pongee, Rubberized J Handle, Soft End, Black Umbrellas

This isnt like a golf umbrella, where itd be awkward to carry. Im 6 tall, and its roughly cane height for me. So if youre much shorter, it might be a bit ... much. When fully opened, it keeps my headphones that I wear everywhere dry, as well as my shirt, my backpack, and my pockets. I dont expect an umbrella to do much more than that, and this guy delivers.

This is an ideal very sturdy water proof umbrella for heavy rain, windy, rough weather. It is very heavy duty and bulky when folded but it covers a lot of area and is great for blocking wind-blown rain. The hook handle is great for hanging over an arm when the umbrella is folded. The unusual split ribs makes the umbrella very stable and wind-resistant. The color is also very attractive. It can be wiped dry rapidly with a cloth if desired.

This is a nice dandy umbrella. Its built well and covers well. Its very sturdy and I like the unisex design (not too masculine and not too feminine). I drive a large pickup and dont really need a compact umbrella. If space is an issue though, this one might be too large.

With two little ones to wrangle I love how easy this is to open one handed. There is nothing to slide you just press the button and it opens. The design of the ribs give the umbrella a unique shaped edge which I like almost as much as the ease of use. I appreciate the carry sleeve too. There are so many spring days where it looks like it might be raining when Im done work- it is easy to bring this umbrella along so it actually does get used when needed! The only down side is this is really too little for a family but for going to and from the office it is perfect.

I am happy that purchased this umbrella!

Sadly, I was disappointed in the color, its not as bright as I hoped, just an ok shade of blue. Other than that, its got a sturdy construction and nice size. If you dont mind the actual color, its a very good umbrella.

The umbrella is nice. I like how the ribs are integrated and opens/closes smoothly. Did not use too many times, but at some point, we lost the rubber tip. What is exposed is an open metal tip that would leak water. Not sure how to get a replacement for the rubber tip?

Like the handle and the wind proof design frame with one piece fabric.

I am very picky with umbrellas, specially because I love old style ones. This is just perfect, wide enough, strong material and not too heavy. I just one will extra love if they make it in more colors.

Unlike most umbrellas, when you hit the button it gently opens into a large coverage umbrella. The handle is comfortable, and it comes with a handy slide-on cover that has a sling handle to store it. The segments have some long sections and some smaller scalloped pieces on the outer edge, giving it a unique look. The mechanism works very smoothly when opening and closing it.
