AOG DESIGN Teflon-Coated Travel Rain Umbrella & UV-Protected Light Compact Sun Umbrella, All-in-One Essential (Placid Blue)

The color is great and current. The handle is a comfortable design. It opens and closes automatically and the price is right. My clients thought I spent more than I did. Small enough to fit in my purse and large enough to snuggle in 2 People if necessary. I ordered one with others to see in person and chose this one in coral pink, lt blue and black. I only wish it came with instructions. Don’t try opening it manually. Only use the auto button and remember to undo the strap that wraps around it before pressing the auto open button.

This is my 3rd umbrella of this type where it has that push button collapse and is the 2nd of 3 that have either broken after little use or, this one, was faulty from the get go. The problem with both of these types is that they won't retract and latch. You collapse the umbrella and try and cock it back into place but they won't latch so they just want to spring back open. I don't think it's the brand so much as the design as my other one that broke after 1-2 uses was a different brand. Now, this one will latch if you collapse the umbrella and use the velcro to tie the arms down but as soon as you release the velcro it will spring back open without engaging the push button. I would live with that if it was beyond the return date but I'm not going to live with it right from the get go. I don't think I'll ever get a self collapsing model again as I think this will happen to them all relatively quickly based on my brief experience with the type.

I ordered two of these umbrellas for my daughters and they only lasted about a month. I'm so disappointed and now I need to buy two them two new ones. I bought these for my kids for a couple of reasons, 1. The reviews said they were good and sturdy 2. The umbrellas were able to fit nicely in my daughters backpacks 3. The colors were bright and girly looking they weren't dull and plain. I would caution to anyone buying these that they're not going to last very long, they were only used during rainy days and still that proved to be to much. I also found that when my kids used them after school on rainy days just walking to the car their backpacks got soaked so I would definitely recommend buying a bigger size.

4/5 stars because I mainly bought this umbrella to help with the harsh Florida sun. Color is cute and coarly. It does very well in the wind and rain. I love the push open/close option. Very sturdy umbrella for being only $9-ish. However, the fabric is very sheer and definitely does not block the light like I was hoping it would.i will be returning and purchasing a $6 more expensive item that will hopefully better meet my sun needs.

It has a great size and shape and has proven to be durable thus far. One cautionary note: the umbrella shoots open very fast, so just be sure to push the open button in a clear space... Retracting it to close takes some force, but overall, is not a big deal. Enjoying the quality and design (especially at this price). Would highly recommend!

Got this for my 10-yr old granddaughter. Had gotten her a Mathilda Jane raincoat and they were sold out of the umbrella so was looking for one to match. Got the peachy pink one and it matched perfectly. She's never had her own umbrella so she loved it. It folds up nicely to fit in her backpack for school.

I've only used it once so far - it seems very sturdy, opened easily, nice material. The only issue I had with it was trying to close it, it seems to take a lot of strength to get it closed properly and when you are juggling a purse and laptop case, it is a bit difficult. Other than that, it seems well made and a nice color too.

I revise my review. I received a faulty product at first. The seller apologized refund, and sent a new one with no return request. The new one is perfectly working well. Nice vivid color with smoothly working button. It is a good umbrella.I just received the umbrella. The button doesn't work. I cannot even open the umbrella to see how it looks like.
