Coolibar UPF 50+ 42 Inch Sodalis Travel Umbrella - Sun Protective

So Ive been using UV- umbrellas since 2007 and this is definitely a great sun umbrella. I took two of these to Spain and Portugal in the middle of the 2019 summer heat wave (90-103 F anywhere we went) and because of these, we were able to enjoy what we were seeing without dying of heat exhaustion. In Portugal, my brother in law and sister made fun of me for using it....until they got under it and felt the difference in temperature. After that, it was more whered you get that again?? So yes, definitely provides great protection. My only issue that one of the umbrellas already has a few worn spots/holes after two weeks of use.

This was bought for the sunny California beaches, but the wind prevents the umbrella to function properly. Great for a non windy , no beach kind of day . Perfect just for rain umbrella.

I THOUGHT I LOVED THE QUALITY & COLOR OF THIS UMBRELLA. WRONG IT JUST FOLDED OVER OUT OF NO WHERE REALLY WANTED IT BUT OVIOUSLY IT REALLY ISNT STURDY AND THE PRICE IS JUST RIDICULOUS. I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS A SIGN FOR GOOD QUALITY-DONT BE FOOLED-DONT TOUCH IT.....

I have owned this sturdy umbrella for about a half a year now and have used it several times a day every day, rain and shine. I am extremely sun sensitive and it is a necessity for me. Even on UV 10 and 11 days I never burned or got sun itch. I have to complement the mechanism because for all times I have put it up and down it has always worked great. ( And easily.) If this one ever wears out I will definitely get another. I would recommend it to anyone as a great investment.

It is very solid, good size umbrella but also very heavy to carry in the handbag.

i have had this umbrella before. it finally broke down, hence my recent purchase. it keeps me cooler when i walk in this southern california heat, and protects my skin. i keep it with me wherever i go. i also like the fact that it is compact, easy to keep in a bag when traveling. i have had other brands and they did not hold up. this one does.

Pretty pink sunbrella and umbrella too . Works in sun and rainy conditions. Bonds up in the wind too. A little heavier than the other model which is more compact but that other one does not do well in rain or wind.

Have had this umbrella for at least five years. It didnt feel sturdy, but it has lasted and is in good shape. I can tell the that it has better sun coverage when I have to use another type of umbrella. Its kind of heavy but folds small. Its such a good umbrella that I thought its only fair that I update my review.

My wife uses this all the time, as we live in a tropical country with blazing sun. My wife calls it her portable shade tree. I feel a definite and immediately noticeable difference between being under its shade and without it. I recommend the silver one hands down! She could have bought the black one but doesnt like the color. Also, she is used to the silver one and knows that she likes it.

Excellent protection from the hot sun of the south
