Anntrue Windproof Travel Umbrella, Auto Open Close Lightweight Compact Portable Backpack Folding Umbrella, Perfect for Car, Purse, Men and Women

First of all, I like this umbrella. It has an automatic opening and closing mechanism which makes entering and leaving a room with an umbrella much easier. However, the spring is too strong and it causes problems in closing the umbrella. Also, the zipper of the sleeve gets caught in the umbrella fabric. While it is only a minor annoyance, it might damage the fabric.

Satisfied with this umbrella. It’s sturdy and a nice size for traveling.

The Build: This umbrella is built out of a strong plastic with a rubber inlay which makes this feel rather quite sturdy and I wouldnt be worried about it folding in heavy storms. The auto deploy button is really a nice feature and operates quite smoothly and the button to close also works reliably. It is definitely a quality mechanism and well engineered. Use: I currently have one always in the car and this works great getting in and out of the car and not get wet. Durability: Currently used this for 3 weeks in where I live it rains almost every other day. So far it held up pretty well, the spring mechanism is still very smooth and show no signs of wear.

This umbrella is great and pretty well built. I usually use this for summer and winter. With the rain season approaching and the hot summers, this is definitely a good thing to have. I am not a fan of the hot sun or the heavy rain. The umbrella is pretty sturdy and I tried a wind resistant test and it holds up. Short of a tornado, it does not flip inside out from just sheer wind force which is nice for those windy rainy days. Even with the heavy winds in the bay area, this umbrellas held up pretty well. It does have enough room for max of two people and will cover the person however depending on the angle it will not cover your backpack. I tried walking around with this with my backpack on and the backpack still got a bit wet but I stayed bone dry which is nice. The switch is nice to have to collapse the umbrella. I am very happy with that. I do not have to close the umbrella down when my other hand is carrying my bag or books. It does not happen to splash water when it closes but careful when you reopen it. The button is not super sensitive. This is great because you will not be walking and all of a sudden the umbrella closes or opens on you. The water runs right off the umbrella and it does not take super long to dry which is nice. What is nice is that I am able to brush off most of the water making drying a lot easier. It does also come with a cover when it is being stored so you can keep it looking neat and organized. Overall I think this umbrella is great to have for sunny or rainy weather. It is light and compact while allowing for full coverage.

This opens with one touch of the button. It has to be closed manually. Feels sturdy. Not the lightest umbrella by weight that I have, possibly because of the windproof factor. It is very convenient that it opens so easily. I did have opportunity to use it on a windy, rainy day, and it was strong against the wind.

Some umbrella only has auto open. This one is definitely worth the price with both auto open and close feature!

“I’m from Seattle— I don’t need an umbrella.” First of all, that’s a lie. Lived here all my life and you won’t catch me without an umbrella on a rainy day here LOL. This umbrella has been great so far. Strong, sturdy & hasn’t flipped upwards yet on me in the wind.

I’m overall happy with this umbrella. I think the price was reasonable, but as someone who lives in the Windy City, their claim of being wind proof is a high demand. I have been caught in the wind a couple times with this umbrella, and while it puts up a good fight, the wind has turned it inside out more than once. I love it for avoiding the rain though, and I think it does a good job of remaining sturdy and keeping its shape during a typical storm.

I went to use the umbrella for only the second time yesterday and the spring mechanism must’ve broke bc the button no longer works and the umbrella will not stay up. If only this had happened before my return window closed-total waste of money Edit: once I was able to force handle all the way back into the umbrella it was able to pop open again the next time without as much force. Its continued to work since then without any issues.

Its a nice umbrella but unfortunately, on my second use, I brought it to my church and left it in the umbrella basket, when I went back to get it, its gone. Probably going to get a replacement but its weird how when I bought it its only 15.99 and now it became 16.99. I only brought it like two weeks ago....what is this price change
