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

Very well package, seemingly well constructed product. Has embroidered logo on both the case & the umbrella itself. The addition of a shoulder strap to the case is nice because it’s definitely got some weight to it for a “travel” umbrella. It weighs more than twice as much as my standard travel umbrellas, and is bulkier both length and width wise. I did not find it any harder to open and close than any other umbrellas I’ve had, both functions were smooth. As far as shade and sun protection - I tried it out in the Phoenix sun on a 110 degree day in July and it does help, but I would say that making it 15 degrees cooler underneath is an exaggeration. It did seem more effective at absorbing/reflecting the baking heat than my standard umbrella that I was using for comparison, but for the $50 price tag - I should hope so, not as much difference as I’d expected though. I hope it holds up well over time to justify the price tag, because there were more affordable options, but seemed like they may be less durable from reviews.

A great umbrella! I bought this for our family trip to Disneyland when I found it was going to be triple digits there. It was like carrying around my own portable shade. It was very windy when I was there and I had no issues with it blowing inside-out like some people experienced. To maximize the cooling effect I wore a Frogg Togg cooling cloth as well. It is heavier than I expected and the handle feels a little awkward so I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

This is the absolute perfect umbrella for blocking out the sun. I take it everywhere and it has a nice cover with a shoulder strap for carrying indoors. The handle does not cramp up my hand when holding it on our long walks - talking 10K steps. I like the plastic covers on the metal spines, so there is no danger of poking anyone. People stop me all the time asking where I got this. This umbrella also handles well in the wind. We get a lot of sun here in Phoenix so I am looking forward to using it this summer. It is cooler under the umbrella too. I really like the fact that Im not wearing hats anymore - leaving me all sweaty with hat hair. I have used it every day since my purchase and it is now my constant outside companion.

Very high quality and sturdy.

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

There are so many things that can be improved upon with this UV umbrella, however, the biggest issue is the weight. I purchased a UV umbrella since Ive been diagnosed with skin cancer multiple times. I thought this would be a great addition for when I need to be out in the sun. However, my arm tires quickly from holding this umbrella. Its a lot heavier than any umbrella Ive ever had. Id rather pay more money for you to source lighter parts. The handle is also very awkward to hold and is a bit wobbly. The attached bungie strap also seems ill placed; I typically like to be able to place it around my wrist while I am holding the umbrella to prevent it from blowing out of my hand, but its on the opposite side of the handle. Was there no usability testing?? It is overall bulky. I could look past all of this if it was at least lightweight.

Great sun protection. Sturdy. Not the most beautiful accessory but that’s not what I got it for. I feel 5-10 degrees cooler under this than without in the sun

Excellent quality product. Rather heavy to carry for any length of time. I took it for a two week trip to Spain and only used it a couple of times. I did like the fact that this one folds up to a reasonable size for travel. I havent tried it in the rain yet but it does the sun blocking nicely.

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

My only complaint would be the handle is not long enough. I want one for my mom to use (she has arthritis and other pain related medical issues). The handle is too short for her to hold while arm resting on arm rest. She would have to rely on her own strength to hold for long period of time so it wont work for her. I will use it, but again would be easier if it had longer handle. Seems solid construction and good quality materials. I expect it to last a long time.
