Tbis is a nice, large umbrella. Seems well made. It is a little heavier than other umbrellas I've had, but I figure that's because it's also larger. I got the 54", to have a wider cover when open. The larger size protects me from the rain better than smaller arc umbrellas. It's easy to open, but closing it for me is somewhat difficult. Once the button is pushed to close it, it pops closed very well. But my trouble comes with pushing the folded canopy back down into the locked position. That is very hard to do, and I always have to put the handle against my leg or belly, and then really push the canopy part in to lock it closed. But so far, that is my only issue with it. The color is pretty, it fits into my backpack side pocket, and protects from the rain very well. I have not used ut in extremely heavy winds, but it has held up in the winds it has experienced so far. I just angle it into the wind and not against it, whenever possible. Overall, I do recommend this umbrella. Just be aware that it may be hard to close when you're finished using it.

G4Free knows what they're doing!!!This is the biggest foldable umbrella i've ever seen, its as big as some small golf umbrellas! Verrrry sturdy, cool mechanism for opening AND closing.But the biggest benefit is the option for the sunproof + rainproof ones. In Florida, thats handy because you get both in the same day!Its a tad bigger than the super small foldables when folded but well worth the trade-off if you want to actually stay cool or dry.This brand has other umbrellas i've loved too!

Very nice size. A little flimsy. The one less star because of the fishy smell it has. When you buy it take it out in the rain right away to help wash the smell off.

I got this mostly because of the compact size it collapses down to. It fits great into a backpack and tho it is a little on the heavier side (tho what do you expect for a 62in umbrella) it is very durable. It easily opens and closes and I live that when it closes the dry side is out so that way you dont have water everywhere. I wish they had more color options but besides that I highly recommend

I looooooove this umbrella! It's huge and covers a large area. My 8-year-old son and I love to walk to school when it rains, and while we wear rain jackets or none at all, his backpack would get wet. This umbrella not only fits the both of us under it but also covers his backpack. The thing to remember is DON'T close it manually or it won't automatically close as it should. I made the mistake of letting someone borrow it at a baseball game and she didn't know and closed t manually and now it won't automatically close anymore. So in that, it's faulty ... and I guess I could return it, but it's a small inconvenience and not worth the hassle of returning. I'm sure I'll buy more in the future and I'll just remember not to lend it out or show them how to close it properly.

Umbrella isn’t that old. Bought it at the end of the rain season last year. Needed a bigger umbrella that was sturdy for the random Bay Area storms. Today was the first real rain of the season. I took this out and when I pushed the open button, nothing. So I manually opened it and made my way to the subway. I closed it using the button and it worked. Once I got off the subway, I opened it and it worked fine but when I went to close it, button didn’t work. So I manually closed it but the umbrella wouldn’t click down. So I just had the stick sticking out. I figured I could fix it after work. Once I got off work, I couldn’t open it. Not manually, not with the button. The umbrella wouldn’t click into place. So I had no choice but to look dumb holding an umbrella and getting rained on. Once I got off the subway station, I again tried to manually close it and open it clicked the buttons. Nothing. It was POURING so I decided that maybe I could hold the top up the whole way home. I only got a couple of feet up the street and realized it was impossible because the umbrella kept closing. So, I decided I would trash it. But before trashing it, I would give it one more try. More because I had spent a lot of money on this and only used it twice. I pressed the bottom of handle of the umbrella against a cement step while I put my body to the top to force it shut. It worked! I was able to use the button and open it. I literally made it two steps when a gush of wind flipped it open. I thought maybe it’s super windy, but everyone else with regular umbrellas was fine. No one had flipped umbrellas or was holding them for dear life. So, with all that said, I do not recommend this product. Wasted of money and is adding unnecessary stress to my life. I’m considering calling it a loss and giving it to someone on the street. Maybe it’ll help them get from point A to B before trashing it.

These umbrellas are great, large when expanded and small and portable when closed. they are easy to open and close and easy to store. Even used it at a Ren Faire to cover up from the sun and provided good shade. It functions really well and is easy to manage. highly recommend, I even got some for my fam :)

I have used this umbrella for a while now and in very harsh weather. It holds up. It is compact for the canopy size and well made. I will say that such a large canopy does pick up wind more than the smaller ones, however even when it does turn the umbrella out it does not break the umbrella and its very easy to turn it right side again. The only hassle is after you close the canopy it can take a little strength to get the folded umbrella to compress back to the handle but that's a sign of how well tightened the springs are. I do recommend this! I
