> 3 dayFits well in a purse. Opens easily. A little hard to close. Its smaller than I expected when open. Not as sturdy in the wind as it claims to be. But it hasnt broken yet. Ive used it about 5 times in some heavy storms.

> 3 dayGreat umbrella “if” it was easy to close. I bought it for my wife. I am a big guy and it is not easy for me to close, for my wife it’s almost impossible.

> 3 dayWith weather patterns differing from place to place, its hard to say what you may need. However, Im near the Gulf coast, and the weather can be very unpredictable. As such, Ive learned that its a good idea to have a compact umbrella in each vehicle, in case of a torrential downpour. It was in that spirit that I got an UVANTI Umbrella Inverted Umbrella Windproof Travel Umbrella with Teflon Coating and Reflective Stripe, 10 Ribs Compact Reverse Umbrella Automatic Folding Umbrella, Blue. Umbrellas vary widely in price, and the UVANTI is firmly in the low-middle price tier. Often the brand name, and not quality, is responsible for higher prices, so I went into this with an open mind. Ive included a couple photos to show you the actual item. The canopy and suspension appear to be of decent quality. The handle, on the other hand, is adequate, but feels a little cheap. The button release works well, and every time. As for the function of the umbrella, Im a fan of the inverted style... especially for ingress and egress from a car, or for entering a home or business. Its really nice to not just dump a ton of water out in an area you didnt intend. Im not really sure what the Teflon will do on the fabric. Im used to nylon canopies, of various types, and Im not sure that they typically are coated. Im not really an umbrella subject matter expert. I do now a bit about PTFE, though... If UVANTI uses Teflon, you dont have to worry about PFOA. While youd probably elect to have a larger umbrella on-hand in the event that you know rain is imminent, I would say that the UVANTI is great as a car/emergency umbrella. The reflective strip is a great feature that all umbrellas should have. Recommended

> 3 dayI loved the idea of a small inverted umbrella. Bought for my mother-in-law (84) for Christmas and it was not easy for her to get down.
