The umbrella features a stainless steel frame and is “windproof,” according to the brand, thanks to its unique dual-canopy design that prevents damage from gusts by allowing air to pass through without letting water in. The umbrella’s water-repellent polyester canopy rests on nine strong fiberglass rods that prevent it from flipping inside out, no matter how blustery it is outside. When the umbrella is open, it provides up to 42 inches of rain coverage and measures 22 inches tall, which the brand says can comfortably keep two people out of the rain. It also has an easy open and close system that operates at the push of a button on the ergonomic handle. Plus, the umbrella folds down to a neat and easily packable 11 inches and weighs just under a pound — the perfect size for a carry-on, backpack, or tote bag.
Shoppers have put this umbrella to the test and say that it keeps them “bone dry” and add that the “quality feels great, and it’s “very sturdy.” One shopper shared that they received their umbrella “just in time for Florida monsoons.” They added that this “fabulous umbrella,” which comes in “great colors,” is withstanding the “tropical depressions that include strong winds” that Florida experiences. Another reviewer described this travel necessity as a “great, sturdy umbrella” that is “staying tough” against Chicago’s “strong winds of the Windy City.”
