Review on Stay Protected In Style: MRTLLOA Windproof Travel Umbrella - Perfect Gift For All Occasions by Chris Cooper

I liked the idea of an 'upside down' umbrella but wanted to get one with the cloud design underneath, so this fit the bill. The picture is very bright and the umbrella doesn't feel flimsy at all. I also liked that when open, this umbrella is a few inches winder than most travel umbrellas which is good because my last compact umbrella didn't quite cover me and my backpack, but this one does.My favorite part is actually that the button opens AND closes the umbrella. Very convenient. Just be careful when you're opening it because it really moves quick! The umbrella sleeve is great too. It fits tightly around the umbrella and seems waterproof, and I like that it has a zipper. The only thing I don't like about this umbrella is that to fully close it takes a lot of strength and effort, more so than any other umbrella I've ever seen. I can't pull the umbrella down and get it to stay, so I actually have to press down from the top of the umbrella for it to click into place in the base. And because of the way it's made with the auto-open feature, you have to open it from the base every time. You can't just close the top part, leave the handle long, and re-open it; it won't work. But now that I know that I really don't mind, and pushing down on the top of the umbrella to close it isn't really a big deal. I just can't figure out how to 'pull' it closed. Otherwise, it's a really great umbrella especially for the price!
