Greater than one weekThis umbrella was perfect for my needs. I take public transportation to work so have to carry and walk with a lot of stuff. This umbrella is so small and compact that it fits perfectly inside my bag. I see other reviews saying it was hard to fit back into the case after opening it up, but I had no trouble. It has not rained in my area yet so have not gotten a chance to test it in the rain. It seems very sturdy and well made. Overall would recommend, and would definitely buy again if possible!

> 3 dayThe third time I tried to use it, it got stuck like this. I only used the open/close button like the instructions said. When I went to push it down, it got stuck. Now the button won’t work to open or close it either.

> 3 dayThis is definitely a small umbrella to be carried in a handbag or purse. It opens and closes fairly easily, although I couldnt see where the closing mechanism was at first. It comes with a zippered case, but I dont think Id have any use for this as Id just keep the umbrella with the slip case in my bag. The handle and spokes feel sturdy, but the material is a bit thin and see through. It should hold with rain, but not sure about a gust of wind.

> 3 dayThis umbrella was surprisingly smaller than I was expecting, its a perfect size to keep in your car or to travel with for emergencies/unexpected rain but would be a pain to use for regular daily use. The umbrella comes in a small storage bag, inside a hard-shell case. Was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the case, very sturdy and will protect your umbrella from damage if stuck in a suitcase or trunk of the car. The umbrella itself is very small, a good size for travel or to keep in a car when needed. It’s fully manual, so you have to expand the umbrella stick (you just pull apart the telescoping handle) and then push open the top of the umbrella. I could see this being a pain to close or put away when it’s all wet and in the rain, it definitely is not a quick open and close. Overall it’s functional and works but dont think I would use this during extended days of rain where am constantly using an umbrella. But I do see it being useful to take on vacation/traveling in the case of rain or to keep in your trunk for emergency use.

> 3 dayI like it so much! I took blue - such a beautiful heavenly color! And even if the sky is actually gray because of the rain, you have the feeling that it is blue above your head :)) The lightest umbrella - for me it is really important. So small that it will even fit into a small bag. Well, if I decide to go only with a clutch, then this umbrella has a beautiful hard case with a strap, so you can carry it as a separate bag! I am delighted! When the umbrella gets wet, you dont need to carry it in your hand so as not to wet the bag, you just put it in the case and everything is dry. This case is simply the best choice for an umbrella!

Greater than one weekIts a little difficult to open up but works fine. I used it first time this morning in the rain and wind. It was sturdy. Love that it is very compact. It fits in my work lunch box nicely. Would fit in a jacket pocket as well.

Greater than one weekThis tiny *manual* folding umbrella comes with a zipper cover with shoulder strap and a slip-on cover. Took me a few (frustrating) minutes to figure out how to open the umbrella and how to get it folded up properly to fit back in the cover and case. Recommend practicing opening and closing before use! No instructions included with umbrella or on Amazon item page saying how to open the umbrella. Thought there would be a catch or button to open, nope. This umbrella is manual not auto-open. Release the narrow strip of fabric with velcro tab that holds the umbrella fabric rolled up. Pull hard on the top or fabric covered part of the umbrella while holding the handle portion to extend the bar and then push slider attached to the arms inside the umbrella to open fabric portion. To close, pull the slider down to fold the arms/fabric, then push firmly but slowly on the top of the umbrella towards the handle to collapse the bar. Be careful not to jab/pinch your fingers holding the handle with the tips of the umbrella when collapsing the arm. The tricky part is to get the ends of the umbrella arms back inside the cup portion handle. Use the attached strip of fabric to fold up and hold the umbrella arms stable. With the fabric rolled up and the handle extended out slightly, hold the umbrella tips together and slide the handle inwards to lock them in place. Tried going to the Leagera website using the QR code give on the tag attached to the umbrella - comes back with a 403 Forbidden web page error. Great umbrella for ultra portability and light weight but with the caveat that it is a manual umbrella and may not be as convenient for folks used to automatic umbrellas.
