Amazon Basics Round Automatic Travel Compact Umbrella Windproof Strong, with Wind Vent, Black, One Size

Bought 2 of these umbrellas for using on holiday. They aren’t as compact as I wanted but they are great quality and very sturdy. They are easily put up and down at the touch of the buttons although returning them to original size needs some gentle force but that may only be due to the newness & may become easier with use. They dry quickly and give great coverage and protection from the rain. I haven’t used them in wind yet. They were a good value purchase and much better quality than other umbrellas I have which cost more. Overall I am very happy with them.

It's fair quality for a **very** light duty umbrella with a short height. The wind vent doesn't help, it still turns itself inside out in the breezy UK. The mechanism to push it shut is hard to do and takes a lot of force from your weaker arm (not one for the frail), which is a bit annoying. The included slip storage thing is pointless. I tried the big brand version of this and it was slightly better made but not by much, so it's up to what your budget is. I think for the UK wind you need something heavier duty than any of these "travel" umbrellas.

Works well, nice and small but effective.

it is not as windproof as the description claims. yes it doesn’t flip but it sure does seem like it will flip. almost broke whilst i was walking through the trenches to my university, ruined my hair. buy if you want a normal automatic umbrella. not if you want windproof only.

A great, strong umbrella at a brilliant price for the quality. I had one of these for many years which I sadly lost. I purchased another one and I am equally impressed with the quality - this is the only umbrella I’ve owned which doesn’t regularly get turned inside out in strong wind, and it has a big canopy for the size, which is perfect at keeping your back dry as well. This is my go-to umbrella. Construction is sturdy, and the button makes it easy to open and close the umbrella quickly when needed.

Automatic button to open and close. Seems windproof with the added flap but haven't had strong winds to test it yet. Good build quality and is sturdy. Came with a case as well.

Bit heavier than expected and prefer something more lightweight but it is well made and does well in the wind because it has overlapping panels that let the wind escape as opposed to 1 big continuous panel of fabric. I don't find it easy to close, whilst I like the button close option and look for umbrellas with this feature, it then requires quite a bit of force to put the umbrella back to its original starting position.

On the second use, my AmazonBasics travel umbrella bent and is now unusable (please see photo). The issue it comes up against is in a good old City wind tunnel caused by sky scrapers and/or high rise buildings. If an umbrella can survive a walk through Regent's Place in central London then it's indestructible. Alas, this is not. In fact I didn't even make it to Regent's Place. It broke on a walk down Putney High Street. Now I can accept a wind tunnel would cause the brolly to turn inside out. Hell, I almost turn inside out in some wind traps. However what is unacceptable to myself, is that it bent and became instantly unusable. I would recommend this umbrella in it's place: Compact "Teflon" Fast Drying Travel Umbrella, Reinforced Windproof Frame, Lifetime Replacement Guarantee, Auto Open/Close, Slip-Proof Handle for Easy Carry I only replaced this when I left it on the Tube.

Very light, portable and good quality product. The handle is quite sturdy to withstand heavy rains. The cloth is good and water resistant; stitching is good. The packaging was awesome. I have used KC Paul umbrella's for 30 yrs but this time I chose Amazon instead. I'm happy with my investment. It's made in China as any other product but worth every penny. I bought after seeing the reviews on Amazon.

bonne qualité et pas cher toujours necessaire

De los mejores paraguas que he tenido, duradero, cómodo, fácil de usar

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.

De momento perfecto, excelente calidad-precio... parece resistente y ha "aguantado" algún chaparrón sin daños o corrosión. Las varillas son flexibles y aguantan ventoleras.
