Took this product hiking in the Sierras and fastened it to my pack. Kept the sun off the head, neck and shoulders. Didn't have to wear a hat or slather any sunscreen. I could feel the mountain breeze on my bald scalp, which kept me cooler than wearing a hat. Passing hikers baking in the sun commented that they wish they would have thought to bring a sun umbrella. In my opinion this type of device is a MUST have for sunny or wet hiking. Pretty lightweight too. Read more

The media could not be loaded. Used it on a 15 day trip to Israel and Egypt. Reflected the sun very well. Was challenging at times to get it to stay open and the cushion handle came off. I glued the handle back on when I got home. Not sure I just got a defective umbrella or this is just how this umbrella operates. Read more

The hiker I bought this for really liked it, and she said it helped with the rain on the long, multi-day trail she was hiking. She did get teased a bit by the other hard core hikers for using it though… Read more

I bought this travel umbrella right before a trip and the glue to the handle came undone. One of the arms for the umbrella already broke. It's been less than a month and the quality isn't holding up Read more

Umbrella works well and is easy to store. I don’t feel like the straps to attach to your backpack are that great. It’s a few bungees that come in a separate ziplock bag and don’t have a great spot to attach to the umbrella. When using, the umbrella would just fall to the side one direction or the other.

My friends have this umbrella and I finally caved in getting it for our hikes. This is much better than my rain umbrella bc of the weight and UV protection. It easily slips into my pack and easy to open and close. I haven’t used the hands free option yet but my friend attaches it to her pack and it works well. Read more

I was quite excited to receive this at Xmas just before leaving for a three month Europe sojourn. After opening and admiring I closed it and slipped it back into its case. the next day, cleaning up the post Xmas debris, my wife discovered the oddest little object on the floor. I kept studying it for days before tossing it without figuring out where it could have come from. Weeks later upon arriving in light mist in Paris I proudly took out our handy umbrella. It would not stay open, making it worthless. The tiny pin I had found on the floor was a key part, rendering a fine looking umbrella a useless addition to the airports garbage bin. Read more
