Yeah it works, nothing complicated or special, just an automatic umbrella. The handle bungee chords are really tight though, make sure your face isnt in front of the handle when youre closing it, or it could break your nose if it slips out of your grasp.

I like that it is compact, however EVERYTIME you click the button, the umbrella opens like a bowl. Not very easy to flip it around in a down pour

Works as expected. Really like the reverse open/close. It catches all the water.

Great especially when getting in the car, never get dripped on again.

Sometimes when I open it, the outer edges flip up and it takes a minute to get the umbrella to open up correctly.

I havent used the umbrella yet but the colors are beautiful and it opens and closes easily. Seems very sturdy and well made.

Love it! Compact, durable and has mechanical open and close. Beautiful.

Hard to close

E Rarely do I ever write reviews but for this product I feel I needed to. I have a larger size of the inversion umbrella and absolutely love it. When I came across this small version, I knew I needed it. For the first few months I used the umbrella once and it worked perfectly fine. However, I live in a nice, dry area so it wasnt until recently that it rained again. Imagine my surprise when, after one use, I get out my car in the pouring rain to find that my umbrella will not open correctly! I ended up completely soaked. Now whenever it opens it flips inside out, as though the wind has caught it. I gave it two stars because when it worked it was lovely, now however its just a broken umbrella taking up space. Edit: I have been contacted by the seller and offered a replacement. Ill update the review after I receive the replacement.

I’ve owned this umbrella for about a week and have used it three times. Every time I have used it it has reversed on me. One time it revered about 4 times on a short walk. I am a college student so I walk across campus with my laptop and it’s important that it doesn’t get wet, so if having an umbrella that doesn’t flip the wrong way is important to you, invest in a sturdier one. It wasn’t even that windy. Looks cute though.
