XIXVON Umbrella Pro | UPF 50+ 99% UV Protection, Reflective Safety Strip, Sturdy Windproof, Travel Portable, Automatic | Reverse Folding Umbrella

The Umbrella itself is a great umbrella - The material is nice and I have used it in a few Florida storms and it is sturdy and stands up to heavy rain and wind. It is very easy to open and comes with a case that zips around it so storage in a purse or in your car is also relatively easy. Closing it however is another story - I found it very hard and difficult to close - and the price tag is rather high for nothing terribly remarkable.

I really like the way this umbrella folds, allowing the water to not drip down when its compact. The quality is well made (top-notch) and very sturdy. It even works pretty well in moderate wind conditions. I like that it has UV protection in it--and I look forward to using it at the beach this summer. The auto open and close feature is nice and solid. The quality is really impressive--quite heavy, almost a pound.

Umbrella comes with zipper open cover with a pull ring. Easy to get on and off umbrella. Push button and umbrella quickly opens. Push button again and fabric portion of the umbrella folds up - just have to push the very top of umbrella to compact the umbrella handle. In my opinion, I wouldnt let young kids use/open this umbrella because how quickly it deploys, and it takes a little bit of strength to compact the umbrella handle. The umbrella sometimes opens with the edge facing up. Gently pull the edge of umbrella down and the edge curve will change to downward. Not a big deal. Havent had a chance to use in windy conditions yet - will update review if any issues come up.

I love that you can open AND close with a push of the button. High quality materials. Good size and not too heavy. Even the carrying bag is nice and includes a zipper for easy stowing.

This umbrella is a solidly built version of the very inexpensive umbrellas you will find hanging on a rack at Walmart. The fabric is superior and the mechanical operation (push button to open) is smooth working and effortless. It opens with a satisfying whoosh. Closing it is a bit harder--the fabric is substantial and getting it all back into the sleeve is a challenge (but it can be done.) I am all for better quality--even when it costs a bit more. This umbrella is great in the briefcase or in the car and will certainly not let you down if it is windy.

I was curious about the hype and wanted to see what an $90+ umbrella would be like. Yes, its good quality, but is it worth the price - sorry... no. Reflective strips are a good idea though and not sure why other brands do not have this. The inverted style is unique but I thought it was a bit confusing.

This is a pretty premium feeling product. The case is elegant and has great stitching and also has a high quality zipper to make using the case much easier. There is even a dual color piping inside the case. The umbrella - wow. It’s just so nice. Reflective piping on the edge to make things visible at night and a dual-tone material that has the interior one color and the outer another. The frame for the umbrella also seems sturdier than the average umbrella. Add to this the fact that the open and close mechanism has a solid feel and you do come up with something a step above a basic umbrella. The “reverse” folding style this has is not new. Compact and full size umbrellas have used this method for years. There may be a group of buyers who come seeking premium products regardless of cost. At $93 MSRP this is a tough sell. If you can find it on sale it would be worth a look.

I live in the sunshine state, so a white exterior with light-blocking interior is really nice. I like the reverse fold to keep the water inside the umbrella, Ill just need to remember to open it up and let it dry out once I get home. The reflective strip on the edge is cool and a smart addition to the design. Mechanism works well and it popped right open first try. Second try it was bent the wrong way, but it popped back into proper shape really easily. The metal framework, fabric, and stitching all look of good quality and Im anticipating using this for years. Its nice and compact and a cool touch that they included 2 sleeves for the umbrella.

It held up nicely for Texas heat. Took it to the beach and did notice a huge difference on our heat but when the winds came, had to be careful cause it almost took the umbrella with it. Overall good purchase so far two months of use and no issues noted.

I am so in love with this beautiful umbrella, I love the color which is like wine and the quality is super. It is indeed have layers of material for your protection from UV rays because it really blocks the sun. You can really feel how protected you are because you can not see the sun coming through the layers of the fabric. If I open it and flips, with just one jerk and it goes back to its original form. The lining that is on the side makes it visible at night. For me, it’s not really light weight but I would say medium, and being that it has 10 wires, it makes it more durable and quality. Even if its a strong rain, it is really good. Never fails me and i have been using it for more than a month. I highly recommend this to friends and relatives and a very great gift as well.
