The distinguishing feature for my use is the protective shell that telescopes up to shield it and keep it bundled and then collapses to act as a collector for water run-off after use. Even has a drain cap. Its brilliant. I am retired and drive a school bus . When dropping off and it is raining, there is always some kid with no umbrella and a wet hike ahead of them. I have carried the ones that have the telescoping shafts that spring out and then open abruptly. Great for adults, in my experience handing a 1st grader one of those is like handing him a grenade. The also dont age well on a school bus in a handy place. So this is perfect. I can keep it by the door (I removed the whistle) so it is handy, it is a bit shielded from the occasional bump, and isnt a boob-trap when opened. When they get home, parent can close it and stick it in a corner with the collapsed shield collecting the run-off. And return it the next day (they always come back). I need at least one more (I only needed three loaners once).

the water draining feature is great idea. for the size ,it more for kid around age 6. opening and closing is easily for kid to do. the quality feel more toward a so so toy, feel like it wont last long

I was expecting an all kid-friendly umbrella but it this clearly meant for older kids. Its larger than most kid umbrellas and is hard to close, even for adults. The plastic cover is a good idea but you have to be able to get the velcro done up for the plastic to slide down. It was a bit too much for the littler kids. If you have an older elementary aged kids, this would be great for them. If you have a younger kid (under 3rd grade) this is going to be a bit too much. Construction is great and the inside is really solid (see picture).

This umbrella was very interesting for me because of the built-in cover to avoid the dripping. It also has a lot of fun extra features that makes it more fun for kids such as the ice cream cone handle, whistle and the fun print options. Even though the dimensions were given, I was still a little surprised on how long it was but in a good way so that I know that this will be large enough for older kids like 8-10. I got this for my son thats almost 4 years old since hes always wanting to hold his own umbrella but struggles with the smaller adult ones, Im hoping this will be easier for him. There are also protective tips on all the wires and I love that there are two layers of fabric for UV protection. The only small thing that I found that was a negative was that there was some unfinished plastic on the ice cream handle but thats easily fixed with a little soft filing. I would highly recommend this umbrella to others especially for the price.

This is a wonderful kids umbrella. The quality really seems good for a kids umbrella. The print is so cute. It is bright and vibrant. The kids can open it themselves without a problem. It worked fine. It is sleek and easy to carry. It seems well made. It looks good. It is easy to open and close. The kids love having their own umbrella. This would make a great gift, too. Overall, I would recommend it.

Bought this beautiful umbrella for my 2 years old daughter, super comfy for her but the best part is that it doesn’t get wet! Love it

My children are just starting to be at the age where they want an umbrella when it rains rather than a hood, and this is perfect for them. It’s not too heavy and has a good grip. Very cute design. They love it.

This umbrella is absolutely adorable! The details are so cute, like the ice-cream cone handle and the whistle attached to the handle, i love it! I initially got this for my 4 year old daughter. I thought because of the childish design that it would be a kid sized umbrella. But to my surprise, it was a lot bigger than I expected. I’d say it’s a typical/adult sized umbrella. I’m fine with that because I needed one for myself and my kids anyways. But if you were wanting a smaller one for your kids, just keep in mind that this one would probably be a little too large for a young child. It’s very easy to open and close which is definitely a plus. Overall, I’m very happy with this umbrella and would definitely recommend it!

This kid umbrella was a little bigger than I expected. Not really a bad thing, just might be more than my daughter can handle due another year. Besides that, this is really nice
