VAN BEEKEN Umbrella Windproof - Wind Resistant Travel Umbrella with Teflon - Light Compact Automatic Umbrella - Portable Folding Umbrella for Men Women

I really like the design, the handle is pretty but not girly so it can be unisec. The button that opens it is tight. Especially that it closes it without having to reset it or the weird metal notch that you have to mess with on the umbrellas that ive used before. I like the hard case so the wood doesnt get scratched from being in the car or wherever. It closes easily and I like how its kinda pleated looking when it closes. It would be cool if it were a little bigger or maybe not so shallow. Cause if its super windy and raining theres not much protection but overall I like it

The umbrella came in a hard zippered case. The hard case was unique to keep product from damage. The umbrella was additionally protected in another vinyl cover. The umbrella opened smoothly and was easy to close. I would recommend this product for someone wanting a compact umbrella. It was easy to carry and the storage was practica

GREAT UNBRELLAS BUT ARE HEAVY. MY ADVICE IS TO TAKE THEIR COVERS OFF. PUT TWO LIGHT WEIGHT GROCERY STORE PLASTIC BAGS IN PURSE. IF IT DOES RAIN, AND YOU DO USE THE UMBRELLAS, PUT THEM IN THE BAGS, WHICH ARE IN YOUR PURSE. THIS WAY YOUR PURSE WILL STAY DRY IINSIDE.

This is a great umbrella. The push action for opening it is fast and the spring style frame keeps it upright in gusts of wind. The only thing I didnt care for was how hard it is to close or lock shut. Overall it is a great umbrella.

I love these umbrellas. Took me a minute to figure out that there is no up or down button. Just press the same button to open and close. I have so many umbrellas because I am in the habit of giving them away to people who seem to need one. Such as my food delivery people, friends and family. I love the automatic open and closing feature and they are not tiny either. They are large enough to work better than those disposable ones I use to buy.

Very nice quality and nice add-ons with zippered slipcover and sturdy zipped case. Have only had a chance to use once, but the push button to open and close worked well. Wish I had been able to test against wind, but am not sure that it would hold since there doesnt seem to be any vents.

My VAN BEEKEN Umbrella arrived in a sleek, stylish carrying case, with yet another covering on the umbrella. I immediately tried it out by pressing the button to open it, which it did with ease. The canopy itself is lightweight, yet it feels tough and is well built with more than one type of material making up the ribs: springs, the metal, and etc. The retraction was employed with ease. I have a little difficulty pushing the umbrella down, but I suspect thats because it is new. I tried the umbrella out during my walk and I was amazed at the covering it provided from the sun. The next night in my city we had a storm wherein I could use my umbrella. It kept me dry while walking in the rain and held up against the winds. I also tried entering my vehicle with the umbrella, which did not go well for me (I got wet); but like most umbrellas there is just no easy way to maneuver getting in the car and closing the umbrella. Getting out of the car and opening the umbrella went very smoothly.

When I received my umbrella I was impressed by how nice looking it was, and how solid it felt. It was packaged beautifully and was just as the seller had described, that is, until I went to OPEN it! I pushed the button and the thing shot out of my hand across the room! If my cat had been there, he would have been seriously hurt! Ive never seen anything like it. Then I tried to close it. It closed on the second attempt. Thinking maybe it needed to loosen up some, I tried opening it again by pushing the button and it shot out of my hand again! This time, nothing I did would close the umbrella back down so I could put it into its original packaging! Im going to return it and hopefully wont have a problem with Kohls accepting it without it being in the original packaging! I would have loved it if it would have worked, but it was like the thing was on a tightly coiled spring! It could be dangerous.

Oh my gosh! I love this umbrella! I needed this when my children were little and I was carrying them. The umbrella can be opened and closed with one hand. l love the wooden handle that fits perfectly in your hand. It comes in a zippered cover that is flexible and it in a fits zippered sturdy case. The button that opens and closes the umbrella is easy to work with and no pinching of fingers trying to get the umbrella closed. I am going to use this for many years to come. I plan on carrying it with me.

I like the wind-proof and push button open and close features. The size of the umbrella when it is open is larger than most of that type.
