Review on Compact Umbrella Portable Protection Windproof by Jennifer Franks

While this umbrella is indeed one of the lightest, if not the lightest, and one of the most compact umbrellas I have ever used, there are it a big problem. that I met for the first time. If I open this umbrella, I won't carry it with me! Firstly, to make this umbrella light and compact, it is a hand held umbrella. While the manual umbrella itself is not a problem, locking it in the open position is a problem. I can't believe how much effort it takes with two hands and after many tries before it finally snaps! Cheap or expensive, I have never used an umbrella that requires so much force and is so difficult to block. If I try to use it in a sudden heavy downpour, I'm all wet when I lock it! Perhaps after much more testing the spring will soften and require less force to lock, but unless you're looking for a two-in-one excise car and umbrella combo, this isn't the best choice. The block I received was not adjusted directly from the factory, which doesn't bode well for their quality control.
