5.0 out of 5 stars Warranty replacement works!
I bought this umbrella for a trip in 2022 that was dry so I did not need the umbrella. Fast forward 11 months and I take it on my next backpacking trip in an Ireland. On the third use It was blown inside out and 2 of the metal ribs were broken by a huge gust of wind that probably was in excess of 70mph.. Since the umbrella was described as wind proof I contacted the seller and inquired about a replacement under their warranty. The seller responded quickly and immediately shipped a replacement that arrived in 3 days. Excellent service. The umbrella is big enough to keep me dry and packs very small, fitting easily into a side pocket of my pack. It even has a soft carry bag with drawstring closure. Nice!
5.0 out of 5 stars Nice and compact
This is a very compact umbrella that's small enough to fit in a purse or carry bag. It is of good quality and kept me dry. It's easy to open and close. Highly recommend if you prefer a good umbrella that's not too bulky.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good travel umbrella
It was great for travel, but since it’s lighter you’re sacrificing durability against really strong winds. I’m glad we had it though. I would not have wanted to carry around a heavy umbrella. It was very easy to use
5.0 out of 5 stars Compact and great
Purchased this for my daughter's backpack, perfect fit and is still big enough to do the job!
3.0 out of 5 stars Too hard to use
The positives: It was lightweight, has a full sized arch (38”), is compact when folded (7 1/2”), and was inexpensive. In fact, those were really the only factors I was looking for when I ordered the umbrella.However, the umbrella has other features that were disappointing.1) It is very difficult to push the umbrella open far enough to “catch” the little piece that will keep it open. I think there may be two problems. One, the catch is too small and two, it requires a lot of strength to push it far enough to catch. And I have to give it a little twist in order for it to catch. It usually takes several tries before I can successfully open the umbrella.2) The umbrella closes over the spokes and they all have to be perfectly aligned in order for the shaft to stay closed (telescoped) in order to hang it. Again, it’s a difficult process that usually takes me several tries.Also disappointing, but entirely my own fault- I failed to select a color, so I received black instead of the purple I wanted to order. Not their fault. I need another umbrella and am probably not going to order the one I got from Sy Compact again even though it has all the features I want- lightweight, full size arch, compact when folded and inexpensive. It’s just too hard to use.
5.0 out of 5 stars Compact!
Compact and lightweight! Perfect for traveling or the car or you bag.
5.0 out of 5 stars very well made and super compact
I recently used it when I was in Mexico city. it is well made and very compact to store.One of the best compact umbrella for the money can buy. I am a happy customer.
4.0 out of 5 stars Not the greatest
Fairly difficult to open. Doesn't have the button to spring it open and also somewhat difficult to latch in place. It is pretty, however.
Very difficult to open and close
Absolute waste of money. I bought this based on all the positive reviews. Wish I’d just read the one star reviews as they’re more accurate. This umbrella is so difficult to open that you’d be drenched by the time you finally got it open.
Compact size
The umbrella is very good size, ideal for carrying in backpack pocket. a little bit flimsier than I expected, I hope it goes well in wind, as I am not sure how flexible it is. Ok so far.
