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

Great little umbrella for keeping the sun off. Not a light little thing. Strong sturdy feel and well made. Not as light as I thought it would be. But, it works great.

It really is SIGNIFICANTLY cooler under one of these! Great product. If it wasnt so bulky id still be using it. I switched to the EuroSchirm Lite Trek umbrella instead. But my husband absolutely loves his Coolibar.

This is a quality material and opens a closes well. It has a funky plastic fish smell. Hopefully as I let it air out it will go away.

I have 2 of these umbrellas & wish Amazon would make me an offer to get another one of them. With all the recent negative reviews, Im hesitant to spend $48. I had planned to get one for a friend, but feel hesitant because of all the recent negative reviews. They werent available for awhile - backordered, and wish I could feel certain the ones now available wont have the problem with the release button mentioned in reviews. I purchased one directly from Coolibar several years ago for $35. Its still functional, though one of the little black support pieces broke after a couple years - but my grandkids were pretty rough with it, so Im ok with that. I got another one via Amazon in July of 2015 for $45 and use it for rain, snow and sun. So far, so good - no problems at all. I love this umbrella - compact and its liberated me from the expense and discomfort of having to use sunscreen on my upper body, and from having to use a hat.

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.

This really helps to stay shaded when i forget my hat.

I love my Coolibar umbrella! I could not wait to get it out of the box and immediately use it on my long walk to the market. I started carrying an umbrella/parasol a couple of years ago, in addition to wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat Since then I have seen a few others pick up on this sensible idea. Most of the others were Asian woman. I was so glad to find this Coolibar titanium umbrella that had UV protection in a portable size. Not only is it convenient, it is not too heavy, and looks smart with every possible outfit. I also like the hunter green lining. Reminds me of the traditional dark green porch and beach umbrellas that I remember fondly from my childhood. This umbrella is chic, practical and makes a statement that you are an intelligent self-protective person. I love carrying it. It keeps me cool under a blazing hot southern sun. It stores easily it its own case and fits nicely into a tote bag when indoors.

I love it! It offers a lot of protection and when the wind blows, the umbrella comes back to normal. Excellent product!

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.

Excellent protection from the hot sun of the south
