Can two people fit comfortably under the umbrella?

I am 5’4” and 157lbs and two of me would fit comfortably under it. I will share that while I still think this is the best umbrella I have ever owned, pushing the top part back down requires two hands for me. The button collapses it nicely but still have to push it down to store. This is not a issue for me just wanted to share that.

What is the size of the umbrella's canopy?

Our canopy has a 40" diameter, which is significantly larger than most travel umbrellas while still being conveniently compact when in a closed position. When designing our umbrella, we noticed that most travel umbrellas could not comfortably fit two people underneath, so we have sought to offer the perfect balance between rain coverage and compactness.

How does it fair in strong winds?

We have thoroughly tested our umbrella in varying degrees of windy weather from mild gusts to extremely windy conditions. It has always held up very well. PLEASE NOTE: In extremely windy weather it is possible that the umbrella can be blown inside out, but we have designed it to quickly pop back into place without incurring any damage to the umbrella itself. If you are in extremely windy conditions then wearing a raincoat may be the best way to stay dry since the rain will be on a strong horizontal angle. Safe travels!

How does it fair in strong winds?

Not windproof! Wind resistant at best. Lasted about 30 seconds at the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland. Flipped inside out and collapsed with springs, wires, and strings going everywhere. Returned them for a refund.

Have not tried them out yet

Delivery was great on time and they were well packed in a box. They are way heavier than I expected they would be. But feel and look sturdy. They each came in a color matching rigid case that zips up. Have not tried them in the rain or windy.

Great umbrella

I have two of these and it's definitely my favorite of my heavy-duty umbrellas. I don't consider them for travel - too heavy/bulky - but for everyday use around town they are small enough and more durable than most of the umbrellas in this class. I've been a bit disappointed in one of them; the last segment of one of the tines is broken and so the umbrella droops and is not taught at one of the ends. I'm not quite sure how it happened - so maybe it was user error - but still disappointed in that. Droopy end aside, it still works fine and is otherwise sturdy.

Quality is great!

I have not had an opportunity to use this umbrella yet but it appears to be very well made! I have problems with my hands and I can both open and close this umbrella on my own, which is not always the case! I love the color and the case that it comes it! I originally purchased a black one for my husband but I liked it so much I had to buy another one for myself, in pink!

FANTASTIC

This umbrella was SO convenient while backpacking through Thailand. It was durable and the case with clasp was extremely helpful to attach to my neck wallet while traveling. The only things that I don't like about this is the huge Hero logos on the casing, etc as I'm an anti-logo girl. I also wish the umbrella would come down a little more, but maybe that is more of an aesthetic appeal versus functionality as this umbrella was quite effective towards rain repellant.

The quality is great but it is too heavy and bulky

This umbrella is well made and exceptionally packaged- it is however large and heavy. Larger and heavier than I expected a travel umbrella to be.
