XIXVON Umbrella Pro (10 Ribs, Red) | UPF 50+ 99% UV Protection, Reflective Safety Strip, Sturdy Windproof, Travel Portable, Automatic | Reverse Folding Umbrella

It broke after my first use in a storm. It works fine for shade on a sunny day, but if you take it to or live somewhere windy its not going to work. It flips up in the wind and the metal will break. I sadly waisted my money for an easily damaged product.

This umbrella seems sturdier and thicker than most I’ve had before. It’s a really nice umbrella. It’s nice that it folds inside out to keep the wet side on the inside. I saw the price of this thing though, and I can’t see spending that kind of money on an umbrella. $90 is crazy for an umbrella.

I thought this would be slightly larger due to having 10 ribs, but overall Im satisfied. Its very flexible, which allows it to better survive wind, and more ribs is better there, of course, but I have found that it will often not properly open-- due to the flexible rib ends, they will sometimes open pointing up. I do like the auto-close feature; although it wont fully collapse the umbrella, it will collapse it enough to get it into your car. Its also reverse-folding, which seems like a gimmick until you experience it. I will probably never buy another umbrella without both of those. That said, Im not sure I like *this* umbrella enough to choose it again over another choice, so its not a 5-star rating from me.

I bought the umbrella in September 2021 and it has already broke. One of the spokes has broken in half and the spoke dangles from the top. I used this umbrella in the spring, summer and fall during my grandkids sports games to keep the sun off of me. It was never used in the rain, only in the sun. The umbrella did not stand up to wind. If it was windy I would have to hold on to it extra tight as it would turn inside out. Now that a spoke has broken it really is not worth using again. I like that it had UV protection in it but I have owned non UV protection umbrellas for a lot less money that are still being used. To only get a year’s worth of use from a $18.00 umbrella is not worth the money.

I recently got to use my umbrella for the first time. The material is pretty heavy duty; it doesnt feel flimsy at all. I didnt notice any sort of light or glow from the reflective edging, but maybe thats there if it had been darker (it was evening when I used it).

I love the fold up concept for not getting everything wet inside. This was the right size to fit in my outer mesh pocket of my work backpack. Pros Great design Reflective edges Folds up and down easily Portable Cons Handle strap broke off on 1st use

This is my first reverse open umbrella and I am very impressed with it. It is made out of pongee fabric and has a slick feel to it. It opens/closes very quickly. I havent use it in heavy wind yet but the fiberglass ribs are pretty flexible. The black and white color combo is distinctive. It comes with a nice case that has a zipper and wrist strap. My only negative is I would prefer the center shaft to be a little longer. Also, the price point is high. They offered a 50 percent off deal when I got mine which is still not cheap for an umbrella but reasonable for the quality. Full price would be way too expensive.

I like the design and construction of the XIXVON umbrella. The reverse (or inverted) folding and reflective safety strip on its rim are thoughtful considerations. After walking to the car in a rain with this umbrella, while sliding on to your car seat, the reverse folding is helpful not to drip water inside the car and you may place the folded umbrella on the passenger seat or backseat without wetting. I understand it has UPF 50 and watery coating to prevent harmful UV rays or rainwater seeping on to the person under the umbrella. The metal frame with ten fiberglass ribs add strength and stability to withstand wind gusts. The one button opening and closing feature is nice. The space under the umbrella is large to accommodate two adults. The umbrella is lightweight (about 1 lb). Because of its large canopy and reverse folding the folded umbrella looks somewhat bulky. If you need a folding, travel umbrella this is a good choice.

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.

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.
