LANBRELLACompact Reverse Folding Umbrella Auto Windproof Travel Umbrella

Buyers Guide after much research and mistakes.:Pros: Holds up in 25 mph wind gusts at a football game without turning inside out. Was concerned that it had only 8 ribs but seem to be strong enough. The slip on cover does fit (barely) not unlike other umbrellas. Liked that they listed them by size like 42" arc or 46" arc (approx 42" diam) Buy the 46" it covers your body in a rain. . Very few manufactures list the size of their travel umbrellas. They need to tell you or look to someone else. It takes 3 seats to cover 2 ea 46" umbrellas for sun or rain protection in older stadiums. Most manufacturers of travel umbrellas will sell you a 42" arc. but don't tell you. We are thinking about buying a 54" arc to cover 2 of us at football games for small seat stadiums. We use ours for sun protection at football games. It hardly ever rains and if it does it is probably lightening so no game. Auto open-close works great. Price was right when we bought 2 as a package deal (less than $20 each + tax) . Note. This review was for 2 football games. One was very windy. One was very sunny.Cons: No unsafe golf umbrella spear sticking out the top for football games. Always wish the handles were longer but then it wouldn't be a travel umbrella. The umbrella is sewn to the ribs with I think lightweight string which will eventually break. Wish it had more ribs like some 9 and 10 ribs that are advertised by others but they don't seem to do much better (design?) in the wind according to reviews.

Been using this umbrella for a few months and I really like it. I always have my hands full so the fact you can open AND CLOSE this with a press of a button is genius. The only downside to that is if you're not careful with your thumb placement when using the umbrella you might accidentally hit it, closing said umbrella. My inattention to such things was not a reason to remove a star however. Great, compact umbrella that fits perfectly into any backpack, briefcase, even purses.

I got this umbrella for a trip to Alaska with my husband. It’s the largest size they offer but still didn’t seem to be much bigger than a regular umbrella. It did the trick and I like the way it folds but the button could use some work. We found ourselves hitting the button on accident and the umbrella would collapse in the middle of actively using. Maybe make the button not so touchy or put it on the bottom of the handle so it’s not hit so easily?

Love this umbrella! My fav feature(s): First, that it auto-collapses the canopy with a click of the button (the same way it opens), and second, the fact that it collapses 'inside out' expelling water as it collapses and leaving the folded umbrella dry. If we learn anything from our own history, it's that I'll eventually lose this umbrella. But I now know EXACTLY what to replace it with.

First time I have purchased an umbrella that folded this way. Just started using recently but I have been impressed with the sturdiness and how easy it opens. It also is large enough for two people to use together.It is difficult to get it back into the closed position.

Got this for a trip to Scotland in October. Lots of wind and rain. It held up to in town weather, but couldn't handle all of the wind out in more remote areas. Although, I'm not sure any umbrella could work in that. When it did turn inside out, it was easy to flip it back the right way and it didn't appear to damage it. Overall a very good umbrella, except in extreme weather.

I have enjoyed using this umbrella as it does not flip with high winds & how it automatically opens and closes. Only con is that you still have to push it into the compact size after it "closes" which is sometimes difficult as the rod can be stiff. Comes with a case. Unique that it is upside down as all the water is able to come out instead of collecting.

Just what I needed - small, lightweight, and functional. Holds up to fairly strong winds - doesn't collapse or pop inside-out in a moderate breeze like the free pieces of junk that are give aways at business conventions.

Good product worth buying

Good piece.

built quality is good

Overall build is good, but the umbrella won’t close properly. The button only folds it. It’s hard to pull it back to the handle and it keeps going back without locking in.

Product is worth its price.
