☂️ Folding Ruffled Parasol Umbrella for Sun and Rain Review

Not at all like the photo, Inside is black material but the top is pink, It's not quite pink like the photo, also it's broken. There are threads hanging down the sides, from above you can see where the cord was attached, and it's not an umbrella fabric. I will return it and buy a better umbrella.

Although the umbrella is cute, it is made of the finest material. I used it once and was afraid I would tear a hole in it by opening and closing it. Perhaps suitable for a couple of occasions or if you are going to an outdoor event and want to protect yourself from the sun. My son ended up buying large parasols which he anchored in the ground for me, my DIL and her mom for the rest of my grandson's soccer season. Wouldn't recommend or buy again.

This umbrella is so cute! I love the jagged edges. As other people say, it's hard to fold it. It folds backwards compared to most umbrellas. The ribs point up on the outside of the fabric. So it is very difficult to put a lid on it. It's not that hard, just roll it up, wrap velcro around it and forget about the sleeve altogether. I used this for a suit and it worked fine. When I wasn't using it, I folded it up and put it in my purse.

Pros: Seller sent on time, arrived in good condition, nice design Cons: Difficult to open/close, does not block enough sunlight. I'm sending it back because I bought it for sun protection but it doesn't block enough sunlight. Although it casts a small shadow, I think a darkened underside design would provide better protection. I'm really not a fan of the design, it's hard to open and close and the few times I tried I really had to help or manually flip one of the sides that wouldn't open fully.
