G4Free Large Umbrella 54 Inch Windproof Travel Umbrellas for Rain, folding Compact Reverse with 10 Ribs Automatic Open Close

This umbrella was (almost) exactly what I was looking for. I love the colors, I love that it's for UV protection AND rain, and I love that it folds inside out to try to keep you as dry as possible! The automatic in/out feature pleasantly surprised my husband, and we both really like it. It's a bit difficult to actually push back down, but a breeze to put back in its carrying sleeve. I'd say it's a normal-sized umbrella, probably just barely big enough for 2 to squeeze under, or to fit 1 very comfortably. I bought it for the pair of us, and one of us is larger, so it's not quite enough for what I was hoping. However, it's such a great umbrella that we kept it as our 'back-up' umbrella. It's not really travel size, but it is small enough to be somewhat portable and convenient. I look forward to taking it out for a spin!

Used this over the summer in the desert, where temperatures went over 110F. While it didn't make the heat fully bearable, it helped keep it at a less lethal temp. It's hot a wide canopy too, so you can fit two people under it.I'd also say that it's well made, it doesn't feel like it would break or snap. This is great since the umbrella doesn't weigh much and usually that means a cheaply made product.

Overall I liked this umbrella, I might even buy it in a couple of different colors. It keeps me cool in sunny weather and fits easily in my bag. The material is actually pretty thin and plastic-y, so I am unsure how much it could withstand when compared with a sturdy cloth umbrella, since cloth can be repaired but this material would be hard to work with id ripped. The button works perfectly fine to open and close the umbrella, however when trying to collapse the handle it is pretty hard. When barely coming out of the package the plastic has a strong chemical smell and had to wipe it down to get rid of the smell. I purchased this because it reflects the sun, but if you only want it for rain you might want to look at other options.

I could always use an additional rain umbrella. However, I purchased this umbrella specificially for UVA/UVB protection because I was told by my laser doctor for rosacea treatment to stay out of the sun and wear sunblock.In New York City it's hard to stay out of the Sun.Because we walk many blocks to get from point A to point B. And it's so humid here that sun block wears off throughout the day period. This umbrella helped me along the 30 minute walk to the laser center.I will also be bringing the umbrella to the beach and taking it out in the rain. I also realize this umbrella has another benefit: The silver fabric on the outside reflects the sun well, so it keeps me cool.Good price, make sure you pick the one with certified UVA/UVB protection since the brand makes various umbrellas 🌂 ⛱️ ☂️ 🏖

Smooth functionality when opening-and-closing; wide wrap-around strip for ease of use when gathering-folding-and-inserting the umbrella back into its sleeve; the v-notch in the sleeve makes for super easy insertion (great idea!); the wide wing-span of this umbrella will keep you + any bags you carry dry, without monopolizing the sidewalk; overall it's lightweight and the blue color is uniquely soothing. Dare I say you may now enjoy walking to work on a rainy day and experiencing hassle-free use from start to finish!

I love this brand! I'm allergic to the sunlight and have some of their other umbrellas that I've used daily for years without issue. For this reason I thought why not get one that's bigger giving me more sun protection while still being compact. Unfortunately this umbrella seems to be flawed, it was good shade while it lasted but within a few months of purchase it broke. I went to open it and instead it shot out of my hand and cut me. I don't fully understand how it broke but it's not fixable and is outside of my return window. I should've trusted the other negative reviews about it breaking. It also would invert very easily making me unable to use it in bad rain and wind. This umbrella is a good idea but don't waste your money. It's not made well. Get one of their other compact ones that work wonderfully.

Inner spines are metal, but they are attached to flimsy plastic spines. The card that came with the umbrella says to keep it pointed towards the wind, so sounds like it is not really wind resistant. First time opening it, the outer spines pointed up, not down, and I had to manually pull them down in sections to get it into regular umbrella shape. After closing it, the plastic spine part wanted to keep being fanned out, so it was annoying to get it all pulled back together and wrapped up enough to fit back in the sleeve.It is a nice large size, and I bought it for sun protection, so I'm going to keep it and see how long it lasts.

First of all I love an umbrella that opens and closes with a button. Secondly I love an umbrella that's functional and actually decently made and this one is exceptionally made!! It's big and wide, Plus the little pouch they give you to put the umbrella in actually works it's got a bigger opening so you can put your wet umbrella in it and it actually keeps the water in the pouch from leaking out!! Unfortunately I lost my pouch the other day so I'm devastated about that and I might actually buy another umbrella just to have it. Definitely worth every penny!!
