SMATI Paris - Lady’s Clear Big Birdcage Umbrella in black border – Transparent; Windproof; Auto open; Crystal style handle; French design; Dome shape umbrella

I needed this umbrella because I was in attendance of a funeral which was held in an open area high up on the hills. It is a beautiful place specifically for burials in a scenic area full of woodland and wild flowers etc. However, the weather that day had been predicted to be gusty with 67% chance of rain. Sure enough as the reverend was conducting the service, the wind picked up and the rain began to pour. This brolly held up well to the weather. It popped up with ease and there were no problems of it turning inside out. It covered two of us with ease and we were able to see the service clearly without getting our faces wet. It also folded back neatly afterwards. So, all in all this was a good purchase for the purpose of its intended use. I cannot comment on it longevity because I've only had it two weeks and weather has been fine where I live. But so far I'm very impressed. Many thanks.

These are very sturdy and work great. Did have to glue the black plastic tips onto the metal rods.

I’m really pleased with the look of this umbrella and the mechanism looks very strong my concern is the plastic appears to be very thin so not sure how strong this is going to be. Therefore I’m holding back a star and will be back to do an extra review in a couple of months to say if it’s holding up against our lovely Welsh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 rainy weather 🥴🤭

I'm too old to get excited about an umbrella, but I really do love it!! It's a nice steep dome, and deep, so you can get right underneath it and feel cosy whilst keeping your shoulders dry too. Because it's clear, you can still see where you're going! Nice design too. No issues with quality so far.

Lovely and big and covers the shoulders

A lightweight yet robust umbrella. The dome shape design is perfect and provides good protection from rain where you need it. Where I live, strong winds prevail and most umbrellas I have bought turn inside out and fail. Another bonus is ones vision is not impaired, making it safer for the user and for those walking near. So pleased with purchase and the delivery was swift too.

It is good quality , stylish ( in my opinion ) , does not break in the wind , opens and closes very well and easy. Overall I totally love this umbrella. It is rather large so when you carry it , remember where you’ve left it so you don’t leave it behind as it does not fit into a handbag.

It comes down as it looks in the picture the clear plastic looks a bit thinner than I thought it would be opens easily but haven’t actually had to use it yet
