Travel Umbrella Windproof Vented Double Canopy with Teflon Coating - Portable Compact Foldable Lightweight Design and High Wind Resistance

This is a very well made strong umbrella but is slightly heavy. Opening and closing smooth operation. It looks good and does its job of keeping you dry as it a good size.

I’d been researching quote heavily in a good quality umbrella after my years of buying cheap “breaks after one windy day” ones from the likes of budget friendly Primark. Firstly, I purchased the forest green colour which looks great, rich green and looks premium. Do note, this umbrella is more weighty and larger than your typical British handbag umbrellas but there’s a very handy clip attached to the cover that clips nicely to the hardware of my handbags. I bought this umbrella due to the typical dreary rain all day, all week weather predicted in Scotland for a joint birthday holiday trip. The umbrella did not disappoint and it covered me (a plus size lady) confidently. I would say it would be a push to cover two persons, perhaps it can with the expectation you may get dropped on the edges. The automatic open mechanism works well but as others suggested, it does take a thorough push to “reload” the spring. My tip is, after pressing the button to close the umbrella, physically drive the umbrella to the ground until the pole reduces in length and you hear the audible “click”. The handle of the umbrella felt practically and ergonically designed for the hand to grab onto. I would highly recommend this umbrella to anyone who’s after a high quality umbrella that offers a spring loaded open and close mechanism.

This is mostly a great umbrella. It is a lovely cheerful canary yellow and provides excellent coverage from rain. I have taken it out in very windy weather and so far it has resisted every gust. The spring action means it opens quickly and effortlessly (although make sure no-one is standing in its path!) and the cover has a nice velcro seal that makes it easy to put on quickly over a wet umbrella (other umbrellas I have had have been very hard to get back into their covers; no problems with this one). So far, so good. So why only four stars? Two small gripes. The first is that the umbrella is a little heavier than I was expecting, and is a bit too big to fit in a handbag. That may be an acceptable trade-off for an umbrella that is strong and robust. But the second gripe is bigger, and one that over reviewers have also noted - the umbrella is very hard to fold down. You have to push it really quite forcefully, and at a difficult angle, to get the spring mechanism to lock into place. One time I thought I had it but not quite, and it sprung back up, sending the base of the umbrella plunging into my stomach, which really winded me. Without this design flaw I would have given it five stars.

Excellent product. Arrived quickly and is exactly as I wanted. There is a clip which stops you loosing the cover and it is windproof which I hadn't realised so better than I expected

I have literally just opened the pack from Amazon containing my umbrella. Immediate reaction was it looked sturdy then I noticed that the cover was connected to the wrist loop by a strap and clasp. Not going to lose this one but it is removable if you want to. Took off the cover and the wow came when I opened it. Such a good size compared with most brollies I have had. Easy to close, firm but feels so solid. Put the cover back on, no struggle to wind up the brolley small enough so that there is a hope of putting it on., the cover has a plaket and is quite roomy.so easy easy to get on. Obviously haven't used it yet so must wait and see how that goes but so far can't find a fault. PS love the colour , I chose yellow.

This is the third umbrella of this product line I've bought. Only because lost mine after three years of use in London. (So two for myself, one for the missus). It's sturdier that it looks and is of good quality,. Offfers a great value for money. Easy to open and close.

I purchased this umbrella in October 2019 when, a non-driver, got a job as a care worker in a venue on top of a big hill in a seaside town. Got off my bus at the bottom of the hill and walked nearly 25 mins to my workplace. Autumn started and I got frequently lashed on the hillside by the rain driven by the winds from the ocean. Not great to turn up like that for work. Discovering this umbrella really saved me and I totally fell in love with it. It's been already said in all these reviews but it's super sturdy. However the trick is actually in its flexibility - in the wind, the ribs just flex inwardly as seen in my pic, then spring back, not break. Yes in a very strong wind, very rarely, the umbrella might even invert itself but again, springs back into position, without any damage. I just love it, often preach about it to soaking-wet bypassers on the street and it's super satisfying walking with it past all the rubbish bins with broken umbrellas sticking out of them. How nice to know this has been the last umbrella I have ever bought! Having said that, after the UK winter season on that hillside, and it was one full of all the horrible storms and hurricanes with human names, the red umbrella I originally bought did give in, a part of a rib snapped. Ergonauts company very kindly immediately replaced it for no extra cost, I chose the yellow out of what was available, to brighten a grey day and we've walked together happily ever after till this day (September 2021). Just a little warning, this is not a dainty ladies' umbrella that fits in a pocket, it is a bit of a stonker (just under 1lb) and you could hit a potential attacker unconscious with it... but hey, you want solidity so here you have it. EDIT JANUARY 2023: So yes, here we still are, me and my yellow Ergonauts umbrella in perfect shape, still faithfully fending off those stormy rains, the best umbrella I've ever had. If you are thinking of getting one, don't hesitate no further.

Good sturdy umbrella

Nella categoria degli ombrelli da viaggio, è leggermente più pesante degli altri, ma per avere la qualità della robustezza non si può fare almeno. Il manico è molto confortevole, ergonomico e antiscivolo con cinghia per vincolarlo al polso. Il pulsante per l'apertura e chiusura automatica bisogna fare una certa pressione (ottimo in caso di pressione accidentale), nel chiudere l'asta bisogna fare una certa pressione con la mano. La parte scheletrica (asta, molle e stecche) sembrano di ottima qualità, la sensazione è di avere materiale ben fatto (vedremo la durata nel tempo). Il materiale del telo è fatto con tessuto repellente all'acqua (per capirci, si comporta tipo quando si applica la c'era sull'auto), il telo a 3/4 verso il centro ha delle aperture per il passaggio di vento forte (per evitare il capovolgimento dello stesso) la pioggia non entra nelle aperture perché il telo è accavallato uno sull'altro. La sacca copri-ombrello è dello stesso materiale del telo, l'apertura per riporlo all'interno e agevolata con un lembo allungato con velcro/scratch a strappo di chiusura. Guardando le dimensioni per una persona di corporatura normale copre bene dalla pioggia, in due è un po piccolo. In conclusione, a oggi, provato più volte anche in situazioni di raffiche di vento abbastanza forti, posso dire che vale la pena comprarlo, sicuramente ci saranno di migliori ma per il prezzo pagato è un ottimo prodotto qualità-prezzo. Se continua a darmi la stessa sicurezza di oggi ne comprerò sicuramente altri.

I really like this umbrella. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and dries quickly. The case stays connected to it and the umbrella is very convenient to carry or fit into a pocket. I also appreciate the wind resistance. It’s a great little umbrella!

Have been a pleasure using it. It seems sturdy & so far with the sydney weather it's still functioning. However the life time warranty wasn't meant for Australia ( only for USA residents in USA) so that was a disappointment.

Nice and sturdy, large enough, and it doesn't feel cheap. Great umbrella
