Compact Auto Open/Close Umbrella

Great umbrella. I bought this for my son when he called me to say that his old umbrella was useless in Northern California. His old umbrella kept flipping and broke. Because of the rain and wind at UC Davis, I sent him this umbrella. It advertised itself as unflippable. My son says that it works great. Since my first purchase three years ago, I’ve sent one to my daughter and niece.

Sturdy and light weight. Prettier than the picture could depict. Very happy with it.

This is my second one of these. I lost my first one, which I had bought at Samsonite's website. :-( The handle feels good in your hand, and it's not made from cheap slippery plastic. It is sturdy, and it takes alot of wind to flip it/reverse it (I intentionally tested it during a period of high wind when I reviewed my first one). It's convenient to be able to push a button when getting INTO the car, and have it retract. Of course it's convenient to open it with the push of a button also. PEOPLE WITH LIMITED ARM/HAND STRENGTH-Be aware that this umbrella TAKES A GOOD AMOUNT OF PUSH to retract it for storage. Also, it has 2 Velcro strips that hold it closed. It is easy (for me anyway) to forget to undo both, and of course when they aren't both undone, the umbrella won't open. That has caught me more than once, when I undid the lower Velcro closure, opened my car door and stuck the umbrella out, pushing the release button at the same time, and it didn't open. I subsequently got pretty wet (as did my open car door) trying to hurriedly undo the top Velcro strip so it would open. So if you buy this, and I would recommend you do, don't make the same mistake. So, as I said, I would definitely recommend this item, and it is my second one, and of course it is made with "Samsonite quality". It's competitively priced and much better quality than the cheap ones, despite it's country of origin. It is Made in communist China.

This umbrella could be perfect if it had not punched me in the tummy & left a bruse, but not bad and disappeared quickly. Too funny Lucky a policeman was near by. He thought someone punched me and ran. But my hand slipped when closing. It take a little strength to push closed. And has to be closed to use button to open all the way.

Hermoso súper compacto

Super cute and functional. Easy to open/close; perfect travel size or for those times when dashing in and out of auto to store; fits in driver door slot. Colors are appealing without being cutesy. Great value for the money.

Broke in 6 months, I maybe used it 4-5 times. One day it the handle stopped retracting and it won’t stay open or closed.

Compact and useful as was expected

It is not strong, and it is broken in normal Netherlands weather. The wind was not even close to severe wind

Demasiado pequeño

This umbrella is not expensive. a good size, and appears well made and solid enough to last a long time. The fabric is thick, the open and close buttons function well, the open one a little better than the close one. I am happy with this purchase.

Good Quality but heavy umbrella

La doble capa parece conferir un plus. Se ve un paraguas robusto y de buena calidad. Habrá que probarlo en condiciones climatologicas adversas. 😅 Lo recomiendo sobre todo si está rebajado a mitad de precio.
