Umbrella Windproof Travel Umbrellas - 10 Ribs Wind Resistant Compact Light Small Mini Upside Down Inverted Folding Reverse Strong Portable - Car Backpack Purse Umbrellas for Rain - Men Women

Frame is mainly plastic and flimsy. I’ve used it a few times and one of the legs has already busted. Also, it is NOT a large umbrella. It is average size at best.

Every now and then I run across a feature in something I've bought that just plain delights me....and solves a problem I didn't know I had. This compact folding umbrella is like that. There a lots of such umbrellas out there that open with a push of the handle button. But how many also close with a push of the same button? To be sure, it doesn't retract as well, but it closes the umbrella with a "snap" in such a fashion that rainwater is trapped INSIDE the folded umbrella. Very clever indeed!I've only had it for a few days but it has already rained a good bit here so I know that part of the umbrella works well. It's too soon to know how sturdy and reliable it is but it seems to be well made - fiberglass ribs and a couple sets of internal springs to drive the opening/closing function.

I've bought 5 of these, I have one in each of my doors in my car. I really do like the flexible skeleton, first one I've had that doesn't bend. I like the double action button. One complaint is it is a little difficult to push umbrella back in after you close it, my gf struggles to close it. And my other complaint, which is the main thing that I wish was improved, is that the top part is held onto the skeleton by a few threads so they can tear fairly easy. I used mine as a bucket, which obviously an umbrella isn't ment for but one of the strings tore. The skeleton held up great though👍. A sleeve would be nice instead of a few loops to hold it together.

*** 2nd update December 2023***It's still going strong. It has been in 3 vehicles now and has kinda become a unofficial member of the family.** update** 18 months I have had my umbrella, my review still stands. I normally keep it in the door pocket, but it has been thrown around too. Bookbags, suitcases, it even survived the kids playing with it.**Compact yet not flimsy. Great travel umbrella or just to keep in your car. (Mine is in the pocket of the door.) Kinda awkward to operate at first, then you'll wonder why the even still make umbrellas the other way.I have noticed a few times that the little caps at the end of the supports come off while closed and stored. (The little things that keep you from poking yourself all around the umbrella.) Not a huge deal, they are attached to the fabric so you just spin the umbrella around and pop them back on. I set aside a tube of super glue so that I can put a dab on them next time and hopefully they'll stay put.

Only used for 2 days! When I opened it, difficulty to open and it’s malfunctioning. Cannot be use anymore. The materials not made durable. I waisted my money buying this umbrella

It's very sturdy and pops open REALLY fast (be sure to point it away from you and other people when opening). I have to use both hands to open and close it, though. Probably because I'm kind of old and my hands aren't very strong. Oh, and it's also great for keeping the rain off my head.

Could it fully open umbrella. I pushed the button but would not fully open. Umbrella looked nice and sturdy just wished it opened

Umbrella is really good and folds up nicely.

The down button doesn’t work

ES COMODO, AUNQUE UN POCO PEQUEÑO! EN GENERAL LO CALIFICO COMO MUY BUENO!

Good quality umbrella

Auto-open and auto-close! It uses a double-loaded spring mechanism; the button fires twice, once to open and once to close.Obviously, the inverted fold keeps the "outside" of the folded umbrella dry.I haven't tested its resilience against strong gusts of wind. Singapore is quite mild weathered. Still, construction is solid, and I'm sure it can withstand strong gusts (though I wouldn't walk out in such weather to ever know).

Me gusta que para ser un paraguas tan amplio, es compacto, pero ciertamente los hay mucho más compactos que este. En este sentido, es más pesado que otros paraguas compactos, 358 g. Es muy fácil de abrir y cerrar, pero compactarlo es lo que resulta muy difícil. Con el toque de un botón abre y se extiende el mango; pero al presionar el mismo botón, solo se cierra y permanece extendido el mango. Digamos que si tienes prisa para subir al auto, y no importa si el paraguas se queda extendido, no tendrás problemas. Sin embargo, colapsar el mango requiere de fuerza. En mi caso, sostener el paraguas por los extremos con ambas manos, lo cual no es nada práctico. Otra cosa que no es práctica, es que si el paraguas no está debidamente colapsado, no abre ni automática, ni manualmente. No me he enfrentado a ráfagas de viento demasiado fuertes, así que no puedo opinar al respecto.
