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

Very high quality and sturdy.

I love this Umbrella and highly recommend to anyone seeking protection from sun. I have an 8 month old baby and it has been an invaluable go-to when travelling overseas. It allows me to go anywhere worry free as I always have shade for my little guy. While visiting Greece this has been key for me not missing out on archaeological sites with him in tow.

I had no idea that not all umbrellas could properly protect you from the sun. I have to walk to my job and when I began I had a regular ole rainy-day umbrella and I eventually realized that the sun was slicing right through it. No matter what angle I held the umbrella at I ended up getting hot and sweating. So I went looking for a proper UV umbrella. I needed to nip the heat in the bud. I live in Florida of all places, I have to be mindful of how the sun rays effect me. I bought this one and Ive been really happy with it. It really does keep you cooler and when the wind did become too much only the outer edges flipped up. I was surprised by that. But if it rains? Yikes. I realized that this umbrella keeps the heat - off of your head. Just as it keeps the rain off of your head only. We had one good Fall shower down here and everything below my rib cage got SOAKED. Im 59, to give you a clue on how this will effect someone taller or shorter than I am. I mention all that, not just to give you an idea of how it works it rainy weather, but how it probably functions in terms of keeping the suns rays off of you. Yes, it fits in a messenger bag, purse, or backpack with ease but it really only protects some of you, not all. Beyond that, Ive been happy with purchase.

Having previously owned a uv ray blocking umbrella from the Breast Cancer Association (that I lost somewhere), I found this umbrella while looking to replace the other. The price was a bit formidable (had to talk myself into buying it) but now that I use it, I find it is definitely a good value for the money. My other umbrella was flimsy compared to this one. This has substantial weight to it and requires a good grip. As others have said, the handle is a bit awkward. But...despite that, I love this umbrella! I like that it has the Melanoma Association approval, a really dependable testimony to the effectiveness of the uv ray blocker. Having an illness that is exacerbated by uv rays, I feel that endorsement gives me confidence the product will work as advertised. Other umbrellas sold on Amazon just say they have uv protection, but with this umbrella, I have no doubt. The claim that it reduces the heat under the canopy by 15 degrees seems plausible to me. I really love the cover with the carrying ropes; it comes in handy. If you are looking for a genuine uv blocking umbrella that is sturdy and delivers what is promised, this is the umbrella you should buy.

Very good quality, if you need sun protection this is great, it has a strap go you can sling over your shoulder and bring with you in case you need. size is perfect not to big to be in the way . I would of liked the handle to be longer because I would stick it in my belt & let it rest on my shoulder then could have use of my hands. But great for hot out door events for people with medical conditions that are not allowed to be in the sun.

I love this umbrella when it’s raining or if I don’t want to wear a hat on a sunny day. The vents let the breeze pass through, making the umbrella easier to hold onto. The folding mechanism is sturdy and easy to handle. Definitely recommend!

Thought I was going to love this sun umbrella. Appeared to be sturdy. Was a bit smaller than I expected but would have been OK. The handle was so short though, to keep it off the top of my head I had to hold my hand up to the top of my chest. I wanted to use it at the ball park when we have to sit on the bleachers with no shade. I can’t hold my hand up like that for hours at a time so I sent it back. My regular folding umbrella has a handle long enough that I can rest my hands in my lap and hold it. I need a sun umbrella like that. Returned it but considering the larger one to see if the handle is longer on it.

Picked up a couple of these for use at an outdoor music festival in July. The claim that it is 15 degrees F cooler under the umbrella is valid. Im not easily impressed, but this umbrella does what it should. Its only wide enough for one person to fit under and its best to angle the top of the umbrella toward the sun for maximum coverage. This company needs to make bigger models; an umbrella for two and a big beach umbrella should be their next products.

Very well package, seemingly well constructed product. Has embroidered logo on both the case & the umbrella itself. The addition of a shoulder strap to the case is nice because it’s definitely got some weight to it for a “travel” umbrella. It weighs more than twice as much as my standard travel umbrellas, and is bulkier both length and width wise. I did not find it any harder to open and close than any other umbrellas I’ve had, both functions were smooth. As far as shade and sun protection - I tried it out in the Phoenix sun on a 110 degree day in July and it does help, but I would say that making it 15 degrees cooler underneath is an exaggeration. It did seem more effective at absorbing/reflecting the baking heat than my standard umbrella that I was using for comparison, but for the $50 price tag - I should hope so, not as much difference as I’d expected though. I hope it holds up well over time to justify the price tag, because there were more affordable options, but seemed like they may be less durable from reviews.

I have not had a chance to use this yet. it does seem like a great quality but will know how it works when we get back in the end of November. It is a little heavy though for a travel umbrella but we will see
