UV-Blocker Travel Sun Protection UV Umbrella Auto Open Double Vented Canopy Windproof Sun Umbrella UV Protection 55+ UPF

I like this for sun protection. It is heavier than I expected.

I bought this umbrella for a month long trip to Dominican Republic. I was going to do door to door ministry and from the last trip we had taken we were recommended to get an umbrella with UV block. There wasnt many options and I thought this was a bit pricey but I read the reviews and most of them were favorable. I really recommend this product. Its light weight but sturdy, doesnt take up too much space and it works! It even has a holder where you can carry it over your shoulder when not in use. (Helps to not forget it when taking public transportation in DR.) I wouldve loved a colorful pattern or for it to be push button close or less costly but other than that no complaints.

I used this umbrella at my granddaughters high school graduation and got there early to sit at the top of the bleachers so not to block anyones view. My family always teases me and especially when they arrived and saw my umbrella up. They had a great time laughing. Before the event started I had two different strangers come up to feel the difference from their regular sun umbrella to my UV-Blocker umbrella and you could feel the difference. I was also surprised to see all the regular umbrellas going up and not even sun umbrellas. Im glad I came prepared with sun block on and this umbrella. It protected and kept me cool from the heat of the direct sun.

Must have for blocking sun. Slightly bulkier then a standard umbrella but blocks the sun perfectly. Provides a good amount of shade for 1-2 people.

This umbrella is clearly a higher quality than the cheaper brand I purchased last year (which only lasted a year) The skeleton is sturdy, the fabric is resilient, the venting is fortified. The size is perfect for one person, barely wider than my shoulders, so I can walk down a crowded street no problem. I attached my own shoulder strap because I find the slip case too much to deal with. The only thing that could be better is that its a little cludgy to close. The first one I bought (I believe it was this brand) closed with the same button that opened it, much easier than this version. Sadly, I left that one on the bus! Hopefully whomever found it recognized it for the treasure that it is.

Having previously owned a uv ray blocking umbrella from the Breast Cancer Association (that I lost somewhere), I found this umbrella while looking to replace the other. The price was a bit formidable (had to talk myself into buying it) but now that I use it, I find it is definitely a good value for the money. My other umbrella was flimsy compared to this one. This has substantial weight to it and requires a good grip. As others have said, the handle is a bit awkward. But...despite that, I love this umbrella! I like that it has the Melanoma Association approval, a really dependable testimony to the effectiveness of the uv ray blocker. Having an illness that is exacerbated by uv rays, I feel that endorsement gives me confidence the product will work as advertised. Other umbrellas sold on Amazon just say they have uv protection, but with this umbrella, I have no doubt. The claim that it reduces the heat under the canopy by 15 degrees seems plausible to me. I really love the cover with the carrying ropes; it comes in handy. If you are looking for a genuine uv blocking umbrella that is sturdy and delivers what is promised, this is the umbrella you should buy.

This is a well-made umbrella that is lightweight and easy to open and close. Here in Hawaii, where the UV index regularly passes 10, the sun is strong and hot. This umbrella not only is blocking UV, it also keeps me much cooler when walking around on a sunny day. Very satisfied with this purchase!

it does its job

this is a quality, sturdy umbrella. Have used it in sun and rain..tennis and cross country viewing with children. A tiny bit bulky but bought another light weight one which fell apart. Think this one is pure quality. Thank you. Worth the cost for sure.

I liked the fact that it is actually cooler under the umbrella, very noticeable. That was a very good plus. However, it was a bit heavy for me and the handle could have been a bit more comfortable to hold with the weight of the umbrella. Overall, it performed well and I am very happy with it. Thank you
