RUMBRELLA Inverted Folding Umbrella for Rain, 50 Inch Anti-UV Protection Automatic Car Travel Umbrella with Safety Reflective Strip

This Reverse/Inverted Folding Umbrella from Rumbrella arrived as shown on the listing here. The umbrella arrived packed within a simple cardboard box. The Sky Blue color looks as I expected based on the listing here. It’s a very different color and not something I see too often with umbrellas, it stands out! The reflective strip on the edge of the umbrella works well, also. The fabric feels thick and the under-side of the umbrella is the same color as the top of the umbrella. The umbrella has 10 ribs and features an automatic open and close button. Keep in mind that automatic close feature, so as to not accidentally push the button while using the umbrella in the rain. The fabric is thick, and the overall feel and fit of the materials and handle feels great. The umbrella may be reverse-folding, but it operates the same as a normal collapsible umbrella. The umbrella has a 50” canopy and a 46” diameter at the bottom of the umbrella. The only hiccup I had with the umbrella is when I first unpacked it, it was having difficulty extending all the way when opening. After some finessing I was able to get the umbrella to extend the rest of the way and I haven’t had a problem since then. Also included on the tag is a UV color change card, that changes color in sunlight, giving you an idea as to how strong the UV is that day. According to a tag on the umbrella, this umbrella is rated UPF 50+ for UV protection. The umbrella is made well, functions as I expect, the color is unique. Time will tell how long it holds up, but so far, so good!

Served as expected and exactly as described. I recommend!

love the color and very sturdy and strong! easy to open the umbrella and close. you would just need to push it against a wall or hard surface to close the handle. otherwise, my favorite umbrella!

This is a great umbrella! It opens and closes easily and it looks great! The construction seems solid and Ive not have this jam or kink on me yet. The closure band works well - it has a good quality velcro grip that quickly secures and stays in place. I opted for the light blue color and it is beautiful and just as shown on the monitor, no surprises there! I love that it is bright and offers good visibility in case I do happen to be walking in a busy area.

Umbrella comes with a light case that is useful for storage. I liked how sturdy it is, yet not heavy. It is small enough to put in sides of the backpack. Inverted folding is convenient when riding a bus. It is easy to open and close with one hand. I havent used it on very heavy rain or heavy wind, but for moderate daily use it worked perfectly. I think it is a decent umbrella for daily use.

Ill be honest, I didnt even know they made inverted umbrellas until I got this lol. But after using it, I completely get the design. It opens and closes super easy...but throw it on your car seat and it doesnt leak water all over. Its one of those things you didnt even realize could be improved on until you try it.

This is a well made umbrella. I like that there is a hem all the way around for lasting strength. I like the way it fold up inverted. I like the quality of the workmanship. I like that it is compact. It is a nice large size. The handle feels good. Whats not to like? It is much better than the cheap umbrellas that you get at department stores

I like to keep lots of travel umbrellas around so I dont get caught when it rains. I even keep an umbrella in all of my luggage in the storage closet so I dont forget one on trips. I like the look of this umbrella. Its inverted design is as good as they claim. It allowed me to shake out excess water more easily than a traditional umbrella and it did not shed much water in my car. It is a bit on the heavier side for an every day carry umbrella and closing it while not a feat of strength is a little more difficult than the average umbrella. For those items Im deducting a total of one star overall.

Excellent compact size and very interesting design. Fabric and hardware seem very durable. I didnt give it 5 stars because I found it difficult to open and close. Opening with a button you would think is easy but mine might be wierd. I really had to press hard. Closing it is definitely a two hand operation. I have arthritis so that just makes it tougher. I recommend if you dont have hand or wrist issues.

Im still waiting for it to rain. I opened it in the house and thought how upset my superstitious mother would be. It opened and closed nicely. I imagine I will end up tossing the storage bag. It folds up small enough and if put away wet, it might get mildewy. So far it has stayed dry (California).
