Umbrella 12 Ribs Windproof Lengthened Handle Travel Umbrella with Auto Open Close Button and Free Upscale Leather Cover

I waited to write a review on this umbrella to get a few months of use first to be certain of my own opinion of it, because other compact umbrella's that I have purchased over my years, usually only last for a range of a couple of days to a few weeks, before it breaks (rusting/entire umbrella inverting because of wind, or weakly-made hinges snapping failing to hold up), leaving me soaked and holding what is left of a sad-looking contraption, trying to stay dry... This umbrella is SUPERB, you can feel how well made it is just by opening it up and holding it. I love the function that the umbrella collapses with the press of the button, which enables you to do it with one-hand!!! Great when entering cars, and through doors. It holds up very well in all weather (windy/pouring), never ran into any issues yet, very durable and dependable, no signs of rust or breaking. In summation, I am very satisfied this purchase!!

This is a great umbrella. It is very compact but opens up to a very large size with lots of coverage. It is very sturdy with the 12 ribs and a very sturdy shaft. It is easy to open or close with one push of a button either way so getting in and out of a car is a breeze. Highly recommended. Of the 3 that I bought (the others are the JUKSTG 12 Ribs and the Balios Prestige Travel Umbrella), this is my favorite because of the storage bags that it comes with. You'll love this purchase.

The wrist strap broke on first use. That's not a huge deal breaker for me though. It looks and feels like an expensive umbrella. Once opened, I couldn't fit it back in the nylon sleeve, but that's what the nice leather case is for, right? The auto close is a great feature. You still have to manually collapse it to be able to open it again, but it's nice and quick so you can board the bus or get inside quickly without getting too wet. It's a bit longer than most travel umbrellas and a little heavier, but it's also better made, so that's fine with me. I've only used it once in a fairly light rain and wind, but it seems like it's going to hold up very well in the wind. The wind "grabbed" it a little because of the way I was holding it, but it gave no indication of trying to turn inside out so I trust it will be fine in heavier wind. All in all, I'm happy with my purchase and it's so nice that I forgot I decided on the cheaper option instead of a $20 umbrella. If you want a nice looking, sturdy umbrella and don't want to spend a lot, I highly recommend you choose this one

I really like this compact umbrella. I was surprised how well made it seems to be. Its lightweight overall but has a very solid feel when you open and close it. I also think that with all the additional ribs it definitely will be windproof. I also like that it opens into a large umbrella, about 40", but folds into a compact size that easily fits in my attache case. Also you cant beat a warranty with such a well priced item. I would think that this umbrella is easily worth twice the price.

This umbrella is so classy. I bought it to use for commuting to work when I need to go out in the rain. I was worried that it may be to feminine, but it really looks great with a suit also. This is a must buy for commuters who have to face the elements. It is sturdy, compact and it does the job. I anticipate that this will last for quite a while!

Most of the short folding umbrellas I have had in the past have been very cheap, small, and basically throw-aways over time. This umbrella is really high quality. It has two buttons - one to pop it open and one to pop it closed. It really works well. It is heaver than the cheap folding umbrellas due to the quality, and size. The size is a real plus. I wear a business suit and the little umbrellas keep my head and shoulders dry and that's about it. This umbrella really covers and keeps me dry. This is not a throw-away. It's the best umbrella I've ever had.

In a sum, it is well-made umbrella. Look elegant and sturdy. it is easily stored in a backbag. it is very light but with good quality. It is good for rain but may not good for UV light, at least I doube it since there is no coating material on the rain-cloth. In addition, the auto open-close button is misleading. it can be opened by clicking the button. however you have to close it mannually. but in sum it is a good umbrella.

I've used this umbrella regularly since I received it a year and a half ago and have never had any problems. In fact, I loved it. It's really sturdy which makes it perfect for windy days and the auto open/close feature is great because it can be opened and closed with one hand, which frees up my other hand when I have to carry stuff. It seemed like the perfect umbrella for me...until it tried to kill me. I was sitting on my bed minding my own business. The umbrella was on the other side of the room in my lunch bag that I use for work. It was protruding, almost vertically, from the top of the bag (handle side up) as it was obviously too big for the bag. Suddenly, I heard KAPLOINK! I jumped as the noise had startled me. But before I could turn to the direction that the noise came from, I heard the clatter of an object hitting the wall above my head, followed by the soft thud as it landed on the bed next to me. I looked down only to find that it was the handle of the umbrella, sitting next to me on the bed. I looked over at where the umbrella would have been, and noticed a really long spring sitting on the floor in front of it. I was shocked! A few inches lower and it would have hit me square in the head. I felt betrayed. I had grown very fond of this umbrella. I thought we had a really good thing going but, in the end, it actually hated me and wanted me dead. But, like my past toxic relationships, I'm going to give it another try because I loved it before it tried to kill me. So I'm buying another one!

The automatic opening and folding is really good. Liked the springs on each of the spokes which will strengthen the umbrella.

Still functional after close to a year. But the strap broke thou.

Bought it for the rainy monsoon season. So it rained yesterday, and I was excited to try it out, and I confidently walked in the rain. It did okay for a while, until 5 minutes in, where my face got wet, from water droplets trickling. I looked up, turns out the umbrella LEAKED IN A FEW PLACES. What a disaster. Build quality is good and felt premium in the hand. BUT it failed the one and only thing it is supposed to do, which is to keep out the rain.
