Western Chief Kids Character Umbrella

I gave it 3 stars bc it is super cute and perfect for a little girl. Other than the plastic frame, the rest of it is pretty good quality--as good as any other kids umbrella for this price. The problem I have is that the frame is not metal. The description says its plastic. I think its more like a fiber glass material. My almost 2 year old broke it within minutes. I tried to fix it, and found that the when I touched the broken part, it left a bunch of tiny splinter-like prickles all over my hands. She still likes it despite one broken prong, as it is super cute, but Im super disappointed that a kids umbrella is made of such a weak material.

I bought this umbrella (the frog version) two years ago, and it has stood up pretty well. My preschooler was not especially gentle with it - it was slammed on the ground like a walking stick and used frequently. It did eventually break, but 2 years is a pretty good track record for a kids umbrella with plastic parts. I just bought a new one. The decorative paint / decals were not especially resilient and they got scratches pretty easily.

A few weeks ago I ordered this same umbrella - but it arrived broken before I could even give it as a Christmas gift. I was so sad to open this umbrella to find it was broke... but much better that I find it broken than my little nephew who loves Mickey Mouse. It must have been the mail service the first time around. This time the umbrella arrived in a much bigger box.

I was concerned about giving my grandson his first umbrella. This one turned out to be a good choice as it has soft plastic round tips on the ends. It is easy for him to extend and retract. The inner ribs are also made of soft, flexible, durable plastic. I see this lasting as long as he is a Batman fan. Of all his gifts, this was the favorite. He couldnt put it down.

Really cute and well made. Makes a great gift for any little girl.

My 6 year old loves this umbrella. I used it at work when I was caught in a rain storm and my coworkers loved it too.

Liked it

Great and looks just like the picture. Only downside is its somewhat small so it would be great for someone 5 or under.

My seven year old loves it. Would make any super hero fan happy

Umbrellas were a big hit with our toddler grandchildren this year. This one (with the Frozen theme) is well made and the perfect size for our 3 year old granddaughter. She loves it!
