Greater than one weekI did not expect much from this umbrella. Typically they are pretty much the same. This umbrella is not only compact but well made. I even used it on a day when it was raining hard and windy. It stood up against the rain and wind. I stayed dry even when the windy got rowdy.

> 3 dayThis umbrella is sturdy, convenient and is stylish. It has a nice sturdy handle and it opens and closes at the touch of a release button. It also, has a handy sleeve that goes over the umbrella. It then has a carrying case that it goes in as well.

> 3 dayThis seems to be a very sturdy and durable product. It is very compact, and it came in a nice neoprene, which is something Ive never seen with an umbrella. It took a moment to figure out how to open the umbrella and get it back in the case. A good product for the price!

> 3 dayIt works in windy weather great, never a problem. The only problem is a few of the tip broke off where the string goes thru on the end of the umbrella. If not for that, It would be a 5 star all the same!!

> 3 dayThis is the best folding umbrella Ive ever seen. It folds and unfolds with the touch of a button which is welcome in a sudden cloudburst. It comes with its own carrying case which come sin handy when you have to put it away wet. The umbrella seems quite sturdy, with a wooden handle and seems like it could handle a strong wind. For less then $22 Id say this is a best-buy and a must-have.

> 3 dayI look forward to using this umbrella for college. It fits really well into my bag. It comes with a case for it, which gives me peace of mind in case I need to store it for a little time when wet. The single button to open the umbrella is one of the other reasons why I chose to purchase this product. UPDATE: 3/29/2020 This umbrella is great; however, after some uses, it has been starting to break down and become loose with strong winds.

> 3 dayThis is a very nice umbrella, exactly as described. I havent had an occasion to use it yet but I feel sure I will be happy with it. My only change would be for the handle to be of a lighter weight, it appears to be a little heavy for my liking. Other people might like it that heavy so I still gave it a 5 star.

> 3 dayI took this because I read many good reviews. But for me it’s just Ok - usual umbrella. Européen brands much better.

> 3 dayI was only able to use it in the rain which it held up great. its easy to open and close with no issues,just push the button to open or close. I dont know about it being wind proof as we have yet to have winds strong enough to see if it stand up or not. its very sturdy though and well made. the zip up sleeve fits it awesome and the harder case is great as well to protect it . the umbrella seems to keep its shape as well. no having a hard time getting the velcro to latch or excess what I called stretched out unbrella fabric sticking out. its definitely worth the price

Greater than one weekI thought I had misplaced or lost my Amazon basics pocket umbrella, so I ordered this one and of course found the other one as soon as I did. This is basically the same as the Amazon Basics with a differently molded handle. Same size, length, and weight. Fits and stays in my coat pocket fairly easily (but sticks out a few inches.) To the reviewers complaining that its heavy-- yes, thats why it doesnt get ruined the first time a wind hits it, like all your cheapo mini umbrellas have in the past. To those complaining about the sleeve and the case-- I dont see how they add much bulk or weight, but I completely fail to see the point of them... I cant even get the umbrella back in the sleeve now that Ive opened it. The zipper case is kind of neat but I dont know why Id want to use it. I wish they had left these things out and just sold the umbrella bare for a couple bucks less. Ill update this if it fails after some actual use, but I dont really expect it to.
