Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The first one I received self destructed the first time I tried opening the umbrella. As always, Amazon's RMA process was a piece of cake, and I had the replacement in hand within a couple days. I've taken it out on a couple of walks in the rain and it definitely does the job of keeping the user dry. It's not huge, so your feet and lower legs may still get wet. I was also impressed by how much of the water was shed off the top of the umbrella when coming inside out of the rain. It appears the teflon coating is really a thing. The sleeve it comes with is a bit of a pain to use, but I'm sure it will come in handy when out and there's no where to stash the wet umbrella. About once a year Amazon has a flash sale on these, so keep your eyes on it and you might be able to get it for a few dollars off.
