UV-Blocker Compact Sun Protection UV Umbrella Auto Open Auto Close Double Vented Canopy Windproof Sun Umbrella UV Protection 55+ UPF

Bought this for my wife who needs to stay out of the sun. She has worn Salumbra sun protection shirts in the past and they have worked well except when the heat really kicks off. This umbrella provides good UV protection as well as lowering the temperature under it so she is able to spend more time outdoors with me. She loves it and that makes me smile.

I received first one broken. After trying another brand and finding their canopy still let a lot of light in, I decided to give this one another try. So I ordered this again, plus I was happy to find a medium size one just a smidge bigger, (I dont notice the size difference when I use), but without the compact folding. I hoped the simpler closing mechanism would wear better. So I bought two of these, the small compact and the medium. (they also make a golf umbrella umbrella, which I havent tried). Ive had both for a few months now, I predominantly use the medium, almost daily, and its held up well and is great. I love having it with a history of skin cancer and being in Arizona, I need this to walk dog or just go in and out of the yard doing chores during the day. Occasionally I use the compact, the size is nice if you travel, and I havent had any issues (or used a lot but I do use here and there). Im glad I gave it another try and the initial one that I received defective was hassle free to return and cost me nothing. So you dont have a lot to lose trying this out. Its been really great to have one of these.

El producto llegó bien embalado, se mira de buena calidad, lo acabo de abrir y usar. El tiempo dirá, pero por lo que veo, cumple con todas las características que dice tener. Muy ideal para climas cálidos. Lo recomiendo mucho. Vale lo que cuesta.

I bought this for my trip to Guyana, a very hot and breezy tropical country. I take it with me everywhere i go, and I do feel that its protected me well from the sun and heat. I have been disappointed that it continues to flip if the wind catches it, but still it hasnt broken because of this. I have a friend who owns one of the same brand and in the same country and she says hers has never flipped. And I must say its better than regular umbrellas Ive used here. Overall very grateful to have it.

Its very short while folded up -- about 10 3/4 inches. But rather round at about 3 1/2 inches. Stubby Compact... but it will take up some room for those hoping to put it in their bag or purse. I keep mine in a water bottle sleeve on my LowePro photography belt and use it regularly in Big Cypress preserve in South Florida. If ever there was a test of the sun blocking ability of an umbrella, its in Big Cypress in the summer months. This one performs great and is tough enough to be pushed through thick growth from time to time.

My wife has been unsuccessfully looking for a good sun-umbrella for a long while...finally 2 years ago we brought our first uv-blocker travel umbrella: we really appreciated it!!! The travel umbrella, used in sunny and rainy days, is still perfect!!! Recently we received 2 compact: top quality confirmed! My wife uses to keep one inside her bag. In our opinion the uv-blocker umbrellas are the best available, effective and longlasting.

Glad I bought this. I walk every day and in the hot Georgia sun wearing a hat just isn’t enough. This solar protection umbrella is really all it says it is.

My husband uses this umbrella while riding on a scooter. While at outdoor art shows or car shows, he often had to find some source of shade to get relief from the sun. He definitely feels cooler and enjoys the portable shade. He gave the umbrella 4 stars because the handle is small and round. He would prefer a larger handle/differently shaped handle that would be easier to grip since he uses for several hours sometimes.

I’m in love with these product! No long ago when I learn that the silver material that this umbrella is made of, cover of (don’t recall the exact name of) but when I learn that is the real deal against protection from the UVA’s rays which are the worst for cancer and accelerating aging, buying this wasn’t a brainer. This is not your regular umbrella is a whole and not too big but enough cover protection, for the sun in summer time. I can perfectly fit the umbrella in my purse which is not big. I LOVE THIS UMBRELLA it really protects from the UVA the worst. People use regular umbrellas for the sun what they don’t understand is that they need the material that this product is made of, which is different from your typical umbrella.

I ordered this umbrella only because a friend had one and it was great for sitting at ballgames, etc, because it was a large size and definitely not compact. She told me the price and when I found this one from the same place, assumed would be the same umbrella. Hopefully, I did not receive the compact size because seller out of stock on large one. I would assume the compact umbrella would be less expensive. If one plans to use as a sun blocker, obviously, the umbrella needs to be large enough to cover you and the compact does not. Lesson learned here.
