umenice UPF 50+ UV Protection Travel Umbrella Ultra Light Weight

Took this on a summer holiday for sun protection. It worked well for 2 days. On the third day it would not close. My husband had to forcibly close and it wouldn’t open again. Had to bring it all the way home just to return it.

As someone who baked in the sun during my teen and college years, I paid the price with an invasive basal cell carcinoma on my cheek 15 years ago. Since then, I am vigilant about wearing sunscreen and no longer suntan although since COVID, I hike a lot and spend a significant amount of time outdoors. This umbrella adds an extra layer of protection - shielding me from the summer suns heat and strong rays. The silver is a nice stylish, classy alternative to the basic black umbrellas I have for rain protection. I keep it in my car so it is available at all times. Thus far, it appears to be sturdy and the mechanism has been reliable. Time will tell.............

Very sturdy umbrella, pretty too.

Life saver on our trip to Rome in 100 heat.

The umbrella kept me cool in 85 degree heat in full California sun! I highly recommend!

I am a women of particular age and race so many are shocked to see me with my UV umbrella! I use Retin A at night so I have to protect my skin from those destructive UV rays! The bonus is that it also keeps you cool on those hot and muggy days! This was one of my best purchases of 2021 and my skin has benefited greatly…I don’t leave home without it!

Perfect for travel

Arrived quickly. Had no smell. Reflects the sun well. Took it to an outdoor lawn concert and received remarks on my intelligence for bringing it to a place with no shade. It was light and easy to carry. Will bring it with me again. Fit in my husbands Jean shorts back pocket...sticking out a little. Not one complaint.

Great yo keep cooler in hot sun

Excellent. Great at blocking the sun. I use every day, during my morning walks.
