    A Great Umbrella for the Wet Season
    Pros+Compact Design+Excellent Build Quality+Comfy Handle+Strong UmbrellaCons-Pop up action could be a potential problem-Good, but not excellent, wind resistant.-Plain DesignShould you buy: YesActual Value: $20AmazonBasics has always surprised me in that they provide a variety of products that are not only useful, but high quality and rivals and even beats the price of some other products. This umbrella is no exception and my expectations were high. Unsurprisingly, this is one of the best and most affordable umbrellas I’ve ever used.-Design-This is a no frills basic umbrella, so there isn’t much to talk about in terms of design. However, there are some small, subtle details that I appreciate Amazon added to it. For instance, the handle has a comfortable design and it is covered in soft touch plastic that adds a premium feel that you don’t find from a plastic handle. There isn’t much in the way of Amazon branding apart from the strap that holds the umbrella together when folded. It is also very compact, which makes it small enough to carry anywhere, such as in the car, in a bag, or in a backpack. But it is still large enough to cover 2 small people or, in my case, one big guy.-Function-The umbrella has a nice open/close button that works as advertised and opens the bag with a satisfying amount of force and closes the umbrella that makes it easy to fold. Granted, while this is a convenient addition, it does look like something that could potentially be a problem in the future. But for now, it is nice to use. The fabric used for the umbrella itself is great and water doesn’t leak and water flows nicely away. The construction itself is good and the frame feels really sturdy. I used it in the brief storm that we have right now in Los Angeles and it does resist the winds fairly well. However, it does feel like anything stronger than the winds that are outside right now will destroy it. Nevertheless, this is still great for this umbrella, especially given its price. Just don’t expect it to handle hurricane level winds.-Conclusion-I’ve used a couple of umbrellas that were in this price range that were flimsy and didn’t last more than a month. But this umbrella sets the new standard for cheap umbrellas that should be enough for most, if not all, people who don’t want to get wet in the rain. And with the wet season fast approaching, there has never been a perfect time to purchase an umbrella. Definitely a top pick for me and AmazonBasics once again delivers a great product.

    Great quality for the price
    Compact, sturdy, and a real bargain at the price. The materials feel higher quality than I would have expected for $12. The press-to-close function lets you stay covered even as you duck into a car. Depending on how you grip the umbrella, you may accidentally trigger the close action, but so far this has only happened to me once.If I could change one thing, I would ask for a ‘medium’ sized variant with a diameter around 48 inches, as opposed to this model’s 37 inches. When the rain comes down at an angle, taller users may find their legs getting drenched. I won’t knock off a star for the size, as it was pretty clear what I was getting.If you want a high quality, compact umbrella that can hold its own against models costing 5x the price, look no further.

    It’s actually quite sturdy, even without the wind vents
    This is cheap and does the job. It’s actually quite sturdy, even without the wind vents, which I wasn’t expecting from such an inexpensive umbrella. However, it’s a pain to close. The button retracts the upper part so you can wrap it up, but you have to use quite a bit of force to snap it back into the handle. I usually push it against a wall because I literally can’t do it otherwise. Also, the lubricant on the metal part has gotten on my hands with each use. I’m hoping both of these inconveniences are a factor of it being new, but if you want convenience right out of the box I would suggest paying $10 more for a slightly nicer umbrella.

    Good Quality for the Price!
    First off, I have been using this umbrella for about a year (based in NY so not on a daily basis). It is very sturdy against wind and has yet to flip inside out at any point. Material feels much stronger than any of those cheap umbrellas you find in the junk stores. Some people may not find it to be a very light weight umbrella but I don’t see that as a big deal because I expect that from an umbrella you don’t want to fall apart after one use. To open you press the button and it opens with no problem! To close you press the button and it closes the umbrella but you must push the umbrella back down to make it compact again. Pushing the umbrella back down requires some strength. That being said, it may not be easy for someone who is weak. It would probably not be easy for someone like my grandmother. Overall I think it was a great purchase for the price!

    quality umbrella
    This is a nice, high quality umbrella. For the price, and in comparison to other brands, I would recommend this umbrella. I only had one issue, I was in a very windy area and the umbrella flipped inside out. I was able to flip it back and it still worked fine.

    Very light, portable and good quality product. The handle is quite sturdy to withstand heavy rains. The cloth is good and water resistant; stitching is good. The packaging was awesome. I have used KC Paul umbrella’s for 30 yrs but this time I chose Amazon instead. I’m happy with my investment. It’s made in China as any other product but worth every penny. I bought after seeing the reviews on Amazon.

    We purchased both this umbrella and a very similar AmazonBasics Automatic Travel Umbrella with Wind Vent, Black.We noted that most of the materials were exactly the same between the two umbrellas (see my pictures below comparing the two umbrellas side-by-side!). The spine, the handle, the shaft, etc. and they all felt sturdy and durable. The only difference was that the more expensive one with wind vent had, well, the wind vent. We haven’t tested them in conditions including strong, heavy winds, but they held up well in Thailand’s heavy downpours, even though they don’t have the diameter to cover your full body if there is some wind. The release is very strong so be careful where you point it!The sleeve is very difficult to put back on the umbrella after use because the sleeve is very tight. The AmazonBasics logo is on the velcro band that wraps around the umbrella, and is the only real identifying feature on the umbrella so it will be very difficult to tell apart from other umbrellas in a rack of umbrellas. I suggest adding a tag to the umbrella itself.We found that the umbrellas were heavy and added quite a bit of weight to packed luggage. That is the trade-off in buying a steel umbrella, as opposed to lighter but more expensive aluminum umbrellas.My opinion is that unless you live in an area with strong winds, the basic travel umbrella is more than sufficient for the needs of most people. I would recommend this to any friends and family looking for an umbrella and will return to edit this review if and when the umbrella breaks.I purchased this umbrella at $16.99 – 20% Prime discount, or $13.59 + HST from Amazon.ca.
