Super beautiful umbrella!! Unfortunately when i was unboxing it i slit straight through the outer sheath holder. Luckily i didnt puncture the umbrella itself! the umbrella isnt automatic. i got spoiled with a push button opener, so I was confused with how to open this one at first. ROFL - you just push it open. The sunflower is GORGEOUS!!

I love how the umbrella opens to look like a large sunflower. Also I was able to fully open it, and then close it and get it back into the storage sheath that it comes with. Sometimes you can never get the umbrella back in the bag, but this one works. The mechanism opens smoothly and locks into place, and then releases to fold the umbrella. Even my 10 year old could work it without help. It folds up and takes up very little space when not in use. I think it will also be fun as a parasol in the summer.

Sunflowers are my favorite flower. I love the way this looks and its very lightweight.

The design is beautiful, but this umbrella is regular size. I have to push it up and open it unlike my other umbrella where I can press a button. The UV protection on the underside is a plus and will be useful when Im walking on a sunny day.

This is my second one purchased. The first one Ive had for years and have even used as a prop at flower shows. Now I have an extra in the car.

My daughter adores this umbrella and the sunflower pattern is a lot of fun.

I needed an umbrella I can leave in the car for those spur of the moment downpours. This is perfect, love the color/design and its super cute. Definite conversation starter!

This is a super cute umbrella. I love the cheerful sunflower design. Its not an automatic umbrella, but the compact size makes it perfect for my briefcase. Ill never be caught in the rain without an umbrella because this can fit anywhere.

Its not the most sturdy umbrella nor does it have a huge canopy. It isnt very automatic either. However, thats the sacrifice for something cheap & compact. With that in mind, this is a good little backup or travel/portable umbrella. Its not fancy, but it works for the basic purpose of an umbrella. I dont really care for the sunflower look, but I dont care too much about aesthetics. Thats low on the priority list for an umbrella. Most importantly, this works as an umbrella.

Crummy! Broke the third time we used it and none of the day were windy. Plus, now there are no options to return it. Blech!
