Umenice UPF 50+ UV Protection Travel Umbrella Ultra Light Weight

I really liked this umbrella initially because it was great to walk around in Southern California for awhile without the strong summer rays cooking my flesh. It is never that windy nor has it rain in my area at all in months. After every use, I return the umbrella to its case. I have used it almost every day for less than a month and it is already falling apart from what I can only guess is opening and closing it with the button or it being held up as I walk around a relatively windless, sunny environment. One of the little arms broke after I pushed the button to close it. The reflective fabric on the outside is wearing away already from opening and closing. I saw other umbrellas that serve the same purpose at my local major retailer at double the price but the mechanical hardware seemed to be of waaaaaaay better quality.

Works great! Only giving it 4 stars because the description is misleading. It’s says it’s a 42” umbrella, but the diameter is is only 36”

THIS. IS. AMAZING. I hate wearing sunscreen because I can’t find a brand I like and it ruins my makeup and it’s a hassle to remember in the morning. However I like to walk around with the staff during our lunch break for exercise and this umbrella is perfect to shield against the sun’s harmful rays. It is compact enough to carry in my purse but really sturdy at the same time. I don’t get why other reviewers said t flipped out with wind. Mine seems very strong and stable. I love that it has automatic fold-in capabilities if you press the down button. It’s an *amazing* price for the quality you’re getting. Bought one for all my coworkers. It’s a small price to pay for nice skin later on when aging reveals Sun spots and damage.

I bought this to hike with, in the desert, because I hate to wear a hat. Never even used it in the wind and when I went to open it, it broke.

I ordered 4 of these umbrellas. I used one and it broke the second time I used it. It works against the sun but obviously its not that durable if I only used it twice.

Update - As of May 2020, this little umbrella is still working great. I did purchase a white one from another brand which was a bit larger, but the mechanism did not work as smoothly as this one, so am going for the white in this brand for a "summerier " look. Also, I find I prefer the smaller footprint of this one, it fits better in bags, purses, etc. FYI - original purchase was March 2018.Excellent sun protection and a hardy umbrella. I wear a hat. A face shield, or use this umbrella every day. I've opened and shut it at least a 100 times so far, shoved it in my briefcase, tossed it in the back seat when in a hurry, and caught it on a rose bush I was picking up and it is still working fine. I've only used it once for rain, but it worked just fine.

deflects sun like advertised, but it flips over too easily. moderate wind and... FLIP! the umbrella inverts.

I was initially very pleased with this sunshade/umbrella, but then I tried to use it for the third time (no problems with the first two uses!) Suddenly the umbrella would not remain open (I had to hold it open in the rain), and then the rod would not retract down. So now I have a travel umbrella which will neither collapse down to small size NOR open and stay open on its own. I’ve tried to fix it, but been unsuccessful. It’s now just a piece of trash. I’ll be seeking to replace it with another brand. Would not recommend.

Nunca me había sentido tan estafada. Estuve semanas en búsqueda de una sombrilla con protección solar y al final elegí esta, quise darle la oportunidad a pesar de algunas reseñas negativas y desde hoy desde hoy no vuelvo a ignorarlas. Llegó en buen estado y a tiempo, la usaba de lunes a viernes alrededor de 30 minutos pero al cabo de dos semanas se rompió, totalmente desechable. Siempre la cuidé en extremo, nunca la jaloneé ni siquiera llegué a chocarla contra la pared o algún objeto, ni las sombrillas de $100 me habían salido tan corrientes. NO LA COMPREN, es tirar tu dinero a la basura.

Lo compre para mi mama y le gusto mucho, realmente se siente que te esta protegiendo cuando estas bajo el sol, a diferencia de una sombrilla normal que sientes un poco como entra el calor por la tela. Es fácil de abrir y cerrar y no estorba para nada.

lo he usado por cerca de tres meses casi diariamente (lo uso para protegerme del sol) y sigue manteniendo la forma y firmeza, protege excelente del sol y de la lluvia, muy recomendable

Es muy bonito a la vista es fuerte, cubre bien y el tamaño es excelente

Es muy útil y tiene buena repelencia al agua cuando se cierra después de una lluvia fuerte. En cuanto a protección solar no estoy del todo convencido de su efectividad.

Llevo ya casi 3 meses usándola y hasta ahora, la sombrilla ha aguantado y no se ve que se esté desgastando o algo por el estilo. La llevó todos los días dentro de mi mochila con varias otras cosas y no le ha pasado nada, diría yo que es resistente hasta ahora.

hasta el momento sin problemas, le gustó mucho a mi novia, vivo en el norte de México y realmente ayuda con el sol

A mi esposa le encanta. Cabe fácilmente en su bolso y despliega y pliega sin problemas

Baja calidad, materiales muy frágilesProcedo a devolución.

Mi esposa no lo deja de usar en Salidas,hasta ahora ha resistido el uso. Excelente compra.

No lo he usado aun, parece q es resistente

Lo recomiendo, llevo un par de meses utilizándolo y cumple su función bastante bien. Yo lo compré en rosa, es muy bonito y los materiales son de calidad.

I like the umbrella as it has a silver colour reflecting and double layer of it adds to the protectionplus light weight easy opening a little harder closing it though.

Me gusto ó la disponibilidad del producto, ya que lo recibí al día siguiente, sobre la calidad, tendré que probarlo para emitir una opinión. Al parecer es buena calidad.

Me gusta es muy práctico y fácil de transportar, así que lo tienes a la mano para cuando llueve
