SIEPASA Compact Travel Umbrella - Windproof Auto Open Close Small Folding Umbrella for Rain - Lightweight Durable with

It looks great and seems to be a better quality than I expected. Its not heavy but theres more weight to it than I expected. It doesn't feel cheap at all. I'm less than impressed with the case it comes in. Some people said they have issues getting the umbrella back inside of it but I have no problem there. It goes back inside easily, tooeasily actually. I'm afraid it's going to just fall off and I'll lose it. The umbrella has a loop on the end of the handle which I love, but I wish the case did too. Or had some elastic inside the opening or something to secure it a little better. The handle of the umbrella also seems a little short. I expected the handle to extend a little more but it doesn't. At all. In the picture, my head is actually touching the top of the umbrella and it feels like im holding my hand up really high. Otherwise the size is perfect. The actual umbrella part is even bigger than I expected and should keep me dry no problem, even with my backpack on. It just came today so I haven't gotten to try it out yet. Warning: the 1st time you open it, be prepared because it opened so fast and with so much force that it startled me lol. Its very fast, and I suggest making sure you're not to close to anyone else or anything breakable. Putting it back down wasn't super easy either. It may be because it's brand new, and im hoping it will ease/loosen up with time, but it takes quite a bit of force/pressure to slide the handle back inside when closing it. Just push the button to close the umbrella part, but then you need to push the handle back in, and that took some force to do. More than I expected or think it should take. But overall, so far, I am pleased with my purchase, especially for the price I paid. Read more

Sturdy umbrella and a good size so now I can walk under it with another person. It's a bit bigger than compact, doesn't fit in my purse but does fit well in one of those water bottle holders on the side of a backpack. Closes and opens easily, keeps me dry, it's too heavy. I have to stand at a bus stop for a period of time at least twice a day usually and it keeps me cozy on rainy days. Also find it easy to hold it and my phone at the same time. Read more

I bought this umbrella just to carry around on brief outings when I didn't wanna wear a raincoat, and it has served its purpose well. It's exactly as described. Lightweight, small, comfortable to hold, and easy to pack in a little day bag. The fabric is pretty thick, so it doesn't tear and it seems to offer some good protection from the sun as well. Only reason I don't give it five stars is because recently I've had to shake it a little bit to make it open up, and the protective bag busted, but those two things might be user error. All in all it's a great product and exactly as advertised. Well worth the cheap price. Read more

the quality is so good, it's bigger than expected, the design of the handle is nice in terms of material but its a little small for my hand. It has good weight and good quality of the metal, I still haven't test it for wind resistance but given the material of the umbrella its looking pretty good Good coverage Read more

Yes, this is an awesome umbrella. Very portable and easy to use. It withstood Miami's thunder showers! I love how easy it is to open. Great color and fantastic quality. Read more

I love this pretty umbrella. When open, it is larger than expected for a travel umbrella, which is great for keeping the rain off. The mechanism for closing the umbrella is different than usual - you press the button in the handle and the top part folds automatically. Then you push it closed manually the rest of the way, which is a bit difficult as it is stiff. Hopefully it will become less stiff with use. Read more

This umbrella is the perfect size and works very well! Read more

I almost returned this umbrella at first because it felt way too hard to close. You *can* push the stem back in while the canopy is still open, but it takes a lot of force. It’s much easier if you press the button first to collapse the canopy, then use two hands to shorten the stem. The tension is still pretty strong — my 1st grade daughter can’t close it by herself. That said, it feels sturdy and well made. The fiberglass frame seems solid, the auto open/close works well, and it folds small enough to fit easily in a backpack or purse. It claims to have a lifetime replacement warranty. I scanned and attached the contact email from the manual in case anyone ever needs it. Overall, once I figured it out, I was satisfied with the purchase. Read more
