ShedRainUmbrellas Luggage Walksafe Windpro Vented Auto Open and Close Umbrella, Black, One Size

Started at 3 star: Opened great automatically , but could not close automatically on first use.Reduced to 1 star: Opened a second time and one of ribs was bent, now will not fully open with bent rib. Can not fix.New news: Looked at it more closely, the rivet in the arm is gone. Created a new rivet and the umbrella is working (used small nail, crimped the other end, then added glue to crimped end so does not tear fabric).Will not return since I am in Taiwan and shipping back is a headache.Is refund possible?

This is a small umbrella that collapses and has a sheath. It is enough to cover one person and it has the vent on top to let wind through. Auto open means it will extend the shaft and open the canopy (as long as the belt is open and the stem is collapsed). Auto close means the canopy will close, the stem requires a manual collapse. The canopy itself can be closed (or opened) manually.The metal shaft is sturdy, much better than a cheap umbrella found in the stores. The metal inside the canopy has parts that also seems sturdy and parts that do not. The button and its enclosure are plastic, the handle itself is some other material, making it comfortable to hold.I think the umbrella itself has an overall stylish look.This is a good umbrella for a good price.

Two of my umbrella (including one replacement) broke soon after using it, canopy of both umbrellas will stop fully extending after I opened it. Requested return for refund.

For the price I paid (17) it's ok... although it's a windpro series, the steel feels fragile. Not coated like the expensive ones (looks like a unfinished steel).Others, like the  ShedRain Auto Open & Close Modern Class Curved Wood Handle  (model COPW010) feels much sturdy, but it's more expensive.If it's for an occasional use, might work for you. But if you live in a city with high winds, then it might not last.The good thing is that it's small, perfect for one slim person.

Ordered 2 in this shipment after I had ordered 1 previously and was so impressed with the quality and easy carrying size of these umbrellas.. it fits 1 person perfectly with a backpack, tight squeeze for 2 persons. The auto open/close makes it very convenient to use one handed. Has reflective corners for those heavy raining and dark days so that cars are able to see you easily. My preference is the black over the blue.

Qué te agradó?...nadaQué no te agradó?...todo

what can I say, it does what a umbrella is suppose to do. Plus when a strong wind hits it, the little folds open and relieves the strain. this is a musts have.

best umbrellas...easy open and close...like the reflective feature for evening commuting
