Perfect for Coastal Life
By Oliver Branch on Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2019
I purchased this in anticipation for my move to a coastal area. I was told the winds can be strong and it rains often in my area so I should invest in a strong, high-quality umbrella. After three and a half months of coastal living, I feel like I've developed a pretty good Pros and Cons list. Pro: - Matches every outfit - Can withstand 25mph winds and NOT flip inside out (unlike my roommates cheap Wal-Mart umbrella) - Easy to see the cyclists who almost run into you (Because it's clear!) - Really pretty to watch the rainfall and not get it in your eyes - People look at you in amazement when it reverse opens - It makes a great self-defence weapon in a pinch Con: - Just a little too small, when I walk without any bags it's perfect but when I have my bookbag it gets soaked - Can't use it to hide your face when you trip and fall into a massive puddle (Again, because it's clear) - Can withstand 25mph winds by catching the wind and pulling you backwards 10 feet down the sidewalk I love my umbrella! It's definitely worth the money (and that's coming from a broke college kid). I had to walk to work in a tropical storm with 25mph + winds and it held together perfectly! My only warning is that because it's so strong, it'll sometimes catch the wind and, if you're short and small like I am, It'll yank you backwards a few good feet, but it won't flip inside out!

Umbrella without Handle
By Nell V. on Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2025
I could not attach the handle of the umbrella. There was no spare part to attach the handle to the umbrella.

Slides right up barely open car door, comes back in just as easily. Very attractive, wind resistant.
I walk outside on rainy days and look up at the raindrops as they pidder padder

I'm not going to lie and say that they are super practical. While I think they're easier to close when getting into a car due to their outward closing design, I still prefer the inward closing design as the internal rods are better protected and I can use the little top of the umbrella thingy to walk with it like an old-fashioned gentleman. But what makes this umbrella stand out is the transparency, which beckons me back to those Tokyo Tik Tok rain videos and the one Kdrama "I'm not a robot" where they used a transparent umbrella. It's just... a nice experience. I bought this umbrella for that reason alone, and I am happy overall with how it functions and how it looks.
It takes forever to get the stickers off

This product seems great and well made but they put stickers on here to tell you how to operate the umbrella and pay. They do not come off. I spent 20 minutes taking the sticker off and using goo-be-gone to completely remove it. It seems like an unnecessary hassle to me.
Easily handled and convenient drying

I love when I take my dog outside during the rain that I can easily hold this umbrella while holding the leash. I also like that it folds out rather than in with just a push of a button, making it easy to close. Also it stands on its own to dry so I no longer have to find a wall to lean it on.
GREAT UMBRELLA & GREAT DESIGN

This is a truly unique and useful design in an umbrella. In fact, we now own 3 of them. There are a bunch of automatic _opening_ umbrellas on the market. This one has automatic _closing_. You may not be able to appreciate the advantage of that until you actually use one, like me, but I quickly became a fan.
Like it so much I gave one as a gift!

What is not to love about this product? No more getting the inside of my car, soaking wet every time it rains! I don’t know why it took me so long to buy one but once I did, I bought one for a gift for a friend.
Nice design, a bit small

Considering that this umbrella is not compact, I was disappointed in its smallish diameter when opened. Other than that, it seems to work great after the first few uses. I like that it can stand up on the floor on its own.

Almost perfect

I really like this umbrella it’s built pretty sturdy and seems like it will last awhile. Although I wish the canopy was more dome shape and that there was more of a cap or tip to the of end of the umbrella.
