Review on Westcott 2011 43-Inch Optical White Satin Collapsible Umbrella: Sleek Black Design by Renee Jones

I only use screens for backlighting. I needed a set quickly so I ordered this one which doesn't need the piercing option. So, this umbrella is pretty good, but the black cover is a BIG PAIN. Every time you open the umbrella, the black cover is removed from the white satin fabric. Not that bad, is it? Well, when you are in a hurry and need to attach 8 small pieces to x 2 pins, it's very frustrating. I had to glue everything myself. It's cool when you freak out 99% of the time. Otherwise look for something else. After all, the diameter is nowhere near 43 inches. Like their 7ft parabola, they measure from the back of the umbrella - a sort of legal false advertising! I just wanted to add to my review. The black cover doesn't really block out the light. Look elsewhere if you want to reflect the light.
