LLanxiry Compact Travel Umbrella, 44" Canopy, Automatic Open/Close Windproof Umbrella, 210T Pongee, 8-Rib Fiberglass, Travel Size Mini, Portable Rain/Sun Umbrellas UPF 50+ with Cover

I have purchased several of these as part of a high school graduation gift. The young women receiving them, based on their thank you notes, seem to really appreciate it. It is a gift kids don't think about when leaving for college. I like that it folds down very small to fit in their bookbags/backpacks. Nice quality and unique to each receiver of this gift as there are many designs to choose from. I will be purchasing additional ones this spring has graduation invites are received.

I used this umbrella in Walt Disney World for 7 days and it was great! We arrived in Florida 3 days before Hurricane Nicole in November (2022) and experienced heavy rain and wind for 2 of those days, then lots of sun for the rest of the trip. This umbrella was blown backwards several times and was drenched for 2 days, then baked in the sun for 5 days and it held up great. I stored it in my park bag when not in use and it even fit in my smaller Loungefly mini backpack. It worked great in the sun, we waited about 20ish minutes for the afternoon parade in Magic Kingdom in full sun and I would not have made it without this umbrella. great travel accessory. The only negative was that the wrist strap pulled out after 4 days.

The umbrella works very well and is pretty and so far has been pretty rugged. Only drawback is that it takes a significant effort to completely close up the umbrella.

So beautiful! We are having a little trouble with it opening fully as it gets stuck at one point in opening. But other than that it's great

The only thing I "Liked" about these were the color, one of the reasons I purchased them, but really sorry I did. I have more dislikes on these than likes, and the dislikes will be explained in detail below. Dislikes: Wife used hers for the first time on 7/6/2023 when we had a hard rain, it was difficult to get open and would not lock in place, it kept popping out of the lock position and closing. Not only that, one of the ribs came out of the small plastic piece that holds the rib in place, she and I both tried to reinsert it, but to no avail, as soon as you'd try to open it, it would come right back out of the plastic piece that is supposed to hold it in place. If she, or I, managed to get it back into the piece that holds it, a light wind would just have it pop right back out again, even just closing it down would have this one rib give way every time, so that part of the umbrella would not stay upright or stiff. These umbrellas are extremely hard to open, they are extremely hard to get into the locked position, and if you do manage to get them locked, they don't stay that way, the locking mechanism seems to always unlatch, and allow the umbrella to close down on you, getting you soaked in the process. And yes, everything about my wife's experience with her umbrella also relates to mine, same exact umbrella, only difference being none of the ribs on mine have broken loose (yet), but everything stated is the same. So, nope, can't recommend this umbrella to anyone, spend a bit more money, get a larger, better quality umbrella. With these, you're getting cheap China made junk that will end up in the rubbish bin much sooner than it should. Don't waste your time with these umbrellas, I have had similar umbrella's that were purchased at the $1.25¢ store outlast these by many years that were given to us by friends. I had figured these would have been of a higher quality than those $1.25¢, and bought these since those had finally worn out after over 5+ years of use, but these, didn't even hold up to a first use before numerous issues showed up. Will never buy these again.

It did not open all the way. Hard to push closed. The handle looks like it was used-dented, scraped and scratched!

Bought this for my wife, as we got caught a couple times in the rain and I only had a massive two person umbrella. It’s a great compact solution that works great in a car. It was cheap, folds down, easy enough, seems to be built about as good as you would expect for the price. I’m not expecting wonders or miracles from this thing, just needs to function when we need it. It’s big enough for her and I’m a average guy, so I’m not too worried about getting wet I have to use it at some point, it will do what it’s supposed to do for its size. I initially thought the color pattern was neat, as my wife is kind of a stargazer. A worthwhile impulse buy!

Good quality

You’re unlikely to get it back in its sleeve, not a great feel to it, but it does the job

Poor quality. I loose my money. Cheating to customers

Average quality.

This umbrella was exactly what I was looking for in a sun umbrella. It's light but feels sturdy, at least for walking around on sunny days. I have much heavyer-duty golf umbrella for actual rain storms but this is a great Summer umbrella. Big but not too big, could handle light rain fine, inside pattern is nice. I also want to note that I LOVE that this umbrella is manual open and not automatic. I really dislike automatic travel umbrellas as they launch open at super speeds and I see it as a hazard if you press it by mistake, but almost all travel umbrellas seems to be automatic these days. This manual open was super easy and smooth, felt secure, nice big button that doesn't hurt your fingers. It comes with a velcro tie for when not in use, yea it would be hard to put it back into the sleeve but I honestly don't know why anyone would bother doing that anyways.
