Amazon Basics Round Travel Umbrella with Auto Open/Close Button, Wind-Proof Compact Design, Wind Vent, Strong Alloy Steel Frame, Soft-Grip Handle, Storage Sleeve, 11" When Closed, Black

I was a little hesitant to order this umbrella because of the "AmazonBasics" label. Frankly, I was concerned about the quality. But it got such great reviews that I decided to take a chance. I'm so glad that I did! This umbrella is heavy duty, without being complete overkill or bulky. The nylon fabric is thick and much heavier than any of the other umbrellas I've ever owned. The handle has a nice grip to it, too. The push button open/close feature works perfectly. It's a little bit tough to push the telescopic handle back down after closing the umbrella, but nothing that can't be easily overcome. The absolute only complaint I can come up with is that the umbrella won't easily go back into the nylon sleeve that it comes in. It's a little bit of a bummer, but certainly not a deal breaker. The only other thing to keep in mind is that this is not a super lightweight model. It might not be suitable to keep in a bag at all times. But I would imagine the weight is due to the superior materials used to make it. Overall, I'm very pleasantly surprised by the quality of this umbrella, and will probably purchase one or two more to keep in our vehicles. Thanks, Amazon! * Keep in mind that if my opinion of this product changes after using it over time, I will absolutely update my review to reflect that. Also note that I paid full price for this item.

I live in So. California where I don't use an umbrella all that often. Bought this umbrella to take to New York City over the Thanksgiving weekend. So glad I did. It fit into my backpack perfectly. The test was the Monday night rainstorm. Powerful wind gusts were tunneling through 56th street. This umbrella was so strong, I thought I was going to become airborne a couple of times. Other people's umbrellas were flipping inside out and breaking. At the corner of 56th and 6th Ave. the trash receptacle was overflowing with broken discarded umbrellas - never saw anything like that before. This umbrella - still going strong. I do need to take a 1/2 point off for construction. The ribs are reinforced and seem very well made. However, the torque on the spring is great for automatic opening, but makes it difficult to close and lock it in. I noticed that it became easier the more I used it. Finally figured out that using two hands works better to pull the knob on the shaft down to lock the umbrella closed. Amazon might want to create a small video showing how to do that Overall, I'm very pleased with this umbrella.

The umbrella is great and I would recommend to anyone. It's on the smaller side so it is hard if you want to share with someone that you are walking with. The wind flaps on the umbrella were a lifesaver on windy days making sure that the umbrella does not turn inside out and keeps it easy to hold. I have even used it one time when winds were extremely strong during a storm and had no problem with it. The automatic close is amazing when you are trying to get in your car, with just the press of a button the umbrella folds down saving you the time it would take to close a regular umbrella and get in the car.

A high-quality and affordable option for anyone in need of a reliable umbrella. One of the standout features of this umbrella is its automatic open and close button, which makes it incredibly easy to use. I can open and close the umbrella with just one hand, which is especially helpful when I'm carrying groceries or other items. The compact size of the umbrella also makes it easy to carry in my bag or purse. Another great feature of this umbrella is its wind vent design, which helps to prevent the umbrella from turning inside out during strong gusts of wind. The umbrella is also made from high-quality materials and feels sturdy in my hand.

Perfect small umbrella. It even has vents despite being small. Feels very sturdy. I haven't used in rain yet but keep one in each car.

I just ordered my second after one year of use. I'm in the Pacific Northwest so it has gotten alot of use and held up very well. The wind has blown it inside out at least a dozen times and it just rebounds back into place when you turn it facing into the wind without damage. Good design, well made, opens with a nice snap to it and closes well, though you do have to push it in to fully close. I only hope they haven't changed anything in terms of materials, design, or construction. After a year, the old one is not gonna last a heck of alot longer - I can feel it loosening up so I bought the second one. Totally satisfied after what I put it through.

The vent does nothing. The umbrella still inverts. The wind bent the metal out of shape.

I found this umbrella to have the right balance of being sturdy and portable. Light enough to carry around in my work bag but strong enough to withstand a wet and windy Seattle rain shower. The wind vents were definitely helpful, not a silver bullet against being wind blown. However, due to good design, the frame is sturdy enough to withstand the force of moderate wind. Best Feature: May be silly, but my favorite thing about this umbrella so far is that the umbrella is easy to wrap up into a compact size and fits perfectly back in the sleeve after use. Con: In my opinion, the curved handle makes holding it more difficult than a normal handle. That's the only thing I prefer about my old Tote umbrella over this Amazon Basic Umbrella. Overall, good umbrella for the price.

The most perfect brolly X

Excelente. Muy cómodo y conveniente. Se despliega completamente con el botón. No hay necesidad de "empujarlo". Es rápido al abrir lo cual es util para salir del coche cuando esta lloviendo. Al presionar de nuevo el boton, la estructura se pliega, pero no el bastón. Ese sí hay que empujarlo manualmente, pero ya es solo para cerrarlo. Viene con una funda también.

This umbrella arrived at the perfect time, just hours before a big storm blew through, and it performed incredibly well. The wind vent a the top helped the umbrella stay the right way around even during very strong gusts of wind. Also, the metal ribs seem to be very strong, flexing just the right amount when buffeted by the wind without any evidence of damage. The canvas is also quite high quality and looks very nice too. Some reviewers have mentioned that it is difficult to retract the umbrella. I didn't find it so. There is a up-and-down button on the handle. Just give that a press to either deploy or retract the umbrella and up it pops or down it comes with ease. It wraps up tightly and fits in the included sleeve for storage. The umbrella is a wee bit bulky, but then again it also extends to a good size and provides a lot of coverage. It isn't something I will carry in my purse every day, but it is definitely going to be something I carry on days when rain is a possibility. It is my new favourite umbrella.

Excellent umbrella. Very compact and easy to carry, but still feels sturdy. It opens quickly with the push of a button and handles windy conditions well without turning inside out or breaking. I chose the reinforced version and it has been great so far. Highly recommended.
