BAODINI Inverted UV Umbrella for Rain and Sun Medium Size UPF 50+ Rverse Compact Umbrella Auto Open Close

I got this because I like to take walks every day but I have lupus so the sun is my enemy. I hadn't used it for a long time as I usually walk very early and wear a huge hat. Well I just got through a huge flare and am even more sun sensitive now so the hat was no longer cutting it on its own with sunblock. I started using this umbrella and it's GREAT. Pretty sturdy unless there's some wind. Seemingly not any worse than an ordinary umbrella. In that case I just grab the edge to stabilize it. Does it's job against the sun. Great pink color. Can't remember which size I got while writing this but it's enough for one person while still being light enough to carry for five miles. Doesn't feel any heavier than my regular umbrella. The only drawback is that it's very hard for someone with little muscle strength to close. I have to push it against something to get it to fully click closed. But I don't really mind that. No weird smell. Would buy again. Very happy with this purchase.

Update 9/5 I wish I could give this thing more than 5 stars. We just had a monsoon flash flood with Hail!!! This thing held up with out and problems!!! This umbrella is perfect for Arizona. The one click open is amazing the close is a little harder it will close back up but you have to use two hands or push it against something to slide it back down in place. The thickness of the material is beautiful, it blocks out all of the sun. I can true feel the difference being underneath it. I got the medium size, it covers me and if I let me kids walk in front of me it covers them. Or I will hold me son and have my daughter walk next to me to cover both of us. I do wish they offered a large size and/or a small size. A large to cover all 3 of us while walking or a small size for my daughter to hold. She can hold this one but it is just a little too big for her. However the quality of this umbrella for the sun is so amazing I would buy 2 small ones for my kids. I can't attest to how it functions in the rain, since again I live in Arizona and bought it for the sun. I can say it held up well on a windy day you can obviously feel the wind pull at it but it did not bend or flap. I highly recommend this umbrella for Arizona residents or anyone looking to block the sun especially for the price.

It does a great job of sun protection, Plus the eight ribs helps to keep it open during somewhat high winds (not extreme wind). BUT unless I hold the edge, it opens inverted which is a pain

I got this UV protection umbrella because I had lacer procedure on my face. Main instruction was to protect myself from direct sunlight. It's a cute umbrella and very durable. However, the push button is annoying!! Everything I use it to extend the umbrella or to put it up, it sounds like it's going to break. Then when you click the button to close it, it stays extended, it doesn't go back to the mini size. You have to push down on it pretty hard. I almost thought I broke it. Just be careful. It's really good quality especially for UV protection. As for wind "durable" or whatever it says, you really need to hold onto the umbrella because if the wind is strong, say bye bye to the umbrella lol.

I only used the umbrella 3 times when it stopped working. (It will not fully open or close properly. I referred to the troubleshooting info with no success.) When I reached out to ask for my options for a replacement or refund, Amazon said there was nothing they could do since it was outside of the return window. I am deeply disappointed there was nothing that could be done to try to help. Please avoid the hassle and choose a different umbrella option.

This umbrella has checked all my boxes! My umbrella had broken after years of tagging along in the car door pocket, and I was searching for a new one, knowing that this would be an opportunity to try out the "new" kind that fold in on themselves instead of spraying water all over me and the car when I closed it. This one opens fast! It's large enough to cover 2 people, or me+work tote+coffee. I find it a convenient weight - I think it's light without being flimsy. Its a tad bigger than my other, but it still fits in my car door pocket. And being really fair-skinned and prone to burning, the spf coating is a bonus, while still having the pretty mint green on the outside! I can't tell you how many times having an umbrella has saved me from a painful burn. And I admit, I like having the matching colored handle instead of plain black!

This umbrella was very hard to close. I cut my finger trying to do so. Now it has broken. I will order another Sun umbrella, but not this brand.

Good umbrella and very durable but my gosh its so hard to close!

Acabo de recibirlo por eso no le doy 5 estrellas, pero, la única y primer cosa que me ha saltado es que al abrirlo, se abre hacia afuera, tengo que estar volteándolo, y si eso hago en la calle cuando está lloviendo pues ya me mojé :S , no se si a todos los que lo compraron les pasó lo mismo.

It’s a durable n sturdy umbrella.

Llevo meses usándola a comparación de otras sombrillas esta no se ha descompuesto del resorte y si te tapa de los rayos del sol

Perfecto buena calidad buen tamaño no cabe en el bolsillo pero si cabe en una mochila ya soporto vientos moderados y lluvias fuertes

Excelente producto, protege del sol perfectamente. Resistente y no se voltea o dobla con el viento, después de 2 años de uso constante lo compraré de nuevo.
