XIXVON Umbrella Pro (10 Ribs, Green) | UPF 50+ 99% UV Protection, Reflective Safety Strip, Sturdy Windproof, Travel Portable, Automatic | Reverse Folding Umbrella

Con este paraguas no sólo no te vas a mojar cuando estás en la calle, tampoco te vas a tener que preocupar por sacudirlo cuando lo pliegues, sobretodo cuando la lluvia aprieta y no sabes donde colocarlo. Un paraguas plegable y automático de 33cm y 410g, con muy buena cobertura, con un diámetro de 105cm, y un armazón reforzado de 10 varillas, con la peculiaridad de que se pliega de manera inversa, quedando la tela exterior escondida. Se envia en una funda de un plástico grueso y transparente con cierre de cordón con el nombre de la marca, en cuyo interior se encuentra la verdadera funda del paraguas, a juego, con cierre de cremallera oculto y muy buena confección. El mango para ser un paraguas plegable no es muy pequeño (9cm), con un buen grosor (3cm), que permite un buen agarre y no canse en mano, con un asa de tela para poder colgarlo. La tela de la gabardina es de color verde por fuera y negra por dentro, de un tejido además de impermeable, resistente al sol (UPF 50+). Una tela plástica que repele el agua, con un tacto sedoso, y con un borde o filo reflectante por todo su contorno. El armazón metálico está reforzado con fibra de vidrio con un mecanismo automático de apertura y semiautomático de cierre, con un bastón telescópico de 3 piezas. Un buen paraguas que no sólo nos va a proteger de la lluvia, también del sol con la máxima protección contra los rayos UVA, pero que se caracteriza principalmente por plegarse al revés y que permite que no tengamos que preocuparnos por donde lo colocamos en un día lluvioso. Un paraguas muy PRO.

This umbrella is very useful to keep on hand for inclement weather. It’s compact enough to fit into bags and purses, but when extended it’s big enough to cover at least two people. There is a cover bag included to keep rain from getting everything in the purse wet and it’s easy to slip on and off. The umbrella holds up well when it’s windier than usual but I haven’t had the chance to try it in high winds yet. So far, it’s been pretty solid so I’m satisfied.

Avendo altri ombrelli pieghevoli standard posso dire che questo fa percepire una qualità costruttiva superiore, sia per le plastiche ed i metalli utilizzati, sia per la stoffa impermeabile. Questa, più che stoffa, ricorda proprio una cerata: è molto spessa, forse anche perché garantisce protezione dal sole (tipica degli ombrelli orientali). Ha, però, un lievissimo profumo strano, che io trovo piacevole, e mi ricorda gli interni delle auto nuove! Ha due colori: sopra verde e sotto nero, con bordo in catarifrangente. La caratteristica è aprirsi al contrario per non rimanere bagnato allesterno quando si chiude (utile ma un po più difficile da fare asciugare da chiuso). Il sistema di apertye chiusura sembra solido. Le dimensioni sono abbondanti, direi quasi identiche a quelle standard di un ombrello medio da uomo. La stecca invece rimane abbastanza corta, tipica degli ombrelli ripiegabili, ed il manico è piccolo e dritto. Molto curato nei dettagli (la custodia, sempre in cerata, ha addirittura una cerniera per poterla aprire ed inserire con più facilità, mai visto). Ritengo che sia un buon prodotto.

Great quality umbrella! Feels so good to hold! Opens up with a click of a button and goes down easily too! So happy, highly recommended

This really is a great umbrella but holy moly, its way overpriced. I love the fabric and the cover and overall everything about it. Its high quality, but certainly not worth $100. Will report back on durability.

Very strong build for this umbrella so stands up well in winds. The handle is smooth and nice to hold. Pops up easily and the top folds again when the button is pressed. Its a bit stiff pushing the stem back to the beginning. Comes in a cover that zips closed so easy to get it back in there.

À la lecture des fonctionnalités de ce parapluie, je croyais naïvement quil suffisait dappuyer sur un bouton pour que le parapluie se déplie et se replie automatiquement. En fait, quand on appuie sur le bouton, le parapluie se déplie et les baleines souvrent automatiquement. Dans lautre sens, quand on appuie sur le bouton, les baleines se ferment automatiquement, mais il faut replier le parapluie manuellement en y mettant un peu de force. À part ça, le parapluie semble solide. Je verrai combien de temps le mécanisme automatique mettra pour se dérégler.

This first time I held this umbrella I was immediately struck with how well it is constructed. It has an excellent overall weight to it that lets me know it will hold up well and the push button opens it with a highly satisfying urgency. The best feature, however, is the reverse folding, which keeps moisture on the inside instead of all over my stuff. Highly recommended.

Press the handle button to open and press again to close. The closing option is the latest bit of tech in the long history of umbrellas and the reverse folding is a clever idea (this means the wet top folds in itself). This does mean that when its folded up and put in the cloth carry bag it has a quite thick diameter. Adding a reflective strip around the cloth edge is a good idea for nighttime use. Overall, a well-made umbrella and looked after should provide some years of use. At this time of writing, I do find the pricing rather confusing. The version I have (ASIN BOBW12CRFN) is £60 but its also available (ASIN BOBKQY5XHG) at £30 or, really push the boat out, for an £80 one (ASIN BOBW14H47M).

This is the best umbrella if I prioritize portability first and ease of use second. Id say that the fabric is the key selling point here - this doesnt require drying time.. just shake the water off or close and then re-open - the forceful opening of the umbrella combined w/ the awesome fabric will cause all remaining water to shoot off. Where it excels: This is easily the most water resistant/water proof fabric Ive seen in any umbrella reverse folding strong spring to open the umbrella quickly crisp trigger - my wifes too weak to open cans.. and she can open this umbrella easily with her thumb.. so Im not sure if we got lucky with this one? Its way easier than what their video shows (needing 2 hands to open) things Im not sure about: the ribs dont seem that special it feels flexible and reasonably sturdy, but this umbrella doesnt feel any sturdier than my other reverse folding umbrellas at the $20-$30 pricepoint. Overall its a well-made, easy to use umbrella. Id like to see some color options on it. At the time of ordering, this was a little <$50. Im not sure about paying double the price for that fabric yet... maybe if this out-lives my other ones, the durability of the ribs might be worth it..
