Eono UPF 50+ Compact, Windproof Folding Umbrella, 99% UV Protection, Automatic Operation, Easy to Use, Lightweight

Lovely small brolly

This umbrella comes in black and is currently priced at £12.80, it is an Amazon own brand make EonoThe umbrella is compact and lightweight, not quite as small as some but small enough to fit in a side pocket of a backpack with ease, or a shopping bag, it may fit in some medium to large sized handbags tooThe umbrella is coated with a black heat shield inside to block UV light (not that this is needed much in Scotland) it is said to be unbreakable having 8 fibreglass ribs and claims to resist winds of up to 60mph, they say it just flexs slightly but does not turn inside out, surprisingly the only time I've used it over the past few days, we didn't get the wind with the rain, so I can't say if that is the case or not yet, but I will update this review if it is impacted with the wind tooThe umbrella has a button to open and close it on the front, but you will need to push it down to fully close it. It came with a big plastic bag which is handy to keep to use to store it when it's wet (if you can't put it up to dry that is) it also comes with a small black cover. The handle is a good size but I wish the strap at the bottom was longer, I like to wrap this around my wrist when I'm using the umbrella, but couldn't get my hand through it (medium sized) that's the only negative I can find about the umbrella just now, apart from that, I like it, especially as its lightweight and doesn't take up much room in my bag

reasonably lightweight easy to hold does the job in keeping one drynot yet used on a windy day

Bought this to carry in autumn in my work bag. Sadly, within 2 months it was rendered unusable by a gust of wind.It seemed sturdy but the arms are either badly designed or just poor quality. As picture shows, one of the arms sheared at a join and now I have a piece of rubbish to dispose of.Otherwise it works! The spring loaded button is quite violent and hard to push back, so not suitable for some people or children.It is passed my 1 month warranty sadly or I would have returned. I would advise people to shop around since this looks strong but is not. Looks can be deceiving.Not ally I buy the Amazon brands and up until now I have never been let down. Perhaps they should test this in autumn, in Europe!

The media could not be loaded. This is a really nicely packaged compact umbrella that’s perfect for a bag or car to have when you need it.It has an umbrella sleeve which is a nice tight fit to keep it compact but I also like the drawstring packaging bag it comes in as when its wet this was a perfect bag to slide it in to drive home then air dry out later.It has a good Velcro fasten round the outside and while this does take a bit of pulling to get round after it’s been open it does a good job of holding it tight so you can put the cover back on.I love the fast pop open mechanism when you press the button so was perfect in a downpour to open the car door and get it open quickly to get out and under it and once done you can use the button again to pop the top shut away from yourself, so no drops come back on you and then push shut once it’s all dried out later.Overall, for only £12.80 I think this is great value for money, well made and perfect to keep in the car or a travel bag for those rainy days.

The media could not be loaded. this is an automatic folding umbrella with open and close button, it’s quite compact in size, with a bit of weight (366g)it’s not only good for rain but also good for sun protection, the material has heat shield coating that blocks 99% of uvtested it open and close smoothly, need a bit more force to trigger the button, also pulling the slider back to the handle is a bit hard, the spring is so strong; overall frame and ribs are strong, good enough for general usethe automatic open and close button is very useful when i got only one hand left for the umbrellaall in all, i’m very happy with this product, would recommendhope you find these information helpful

All seemed good when the umbrella arrived. Tested and all seemed well. About a week later and using it when raining, went to close the umbrella and it unfortunately wouldn't click back into place - just kept pinging back open. Maybe there's a knack to it, but 3 people tried to no effect. It definitely got top marks for sturdiness, but obviously wasn't any use in a constantly open position. Can't fault Amazon, as they promptly refunded it.

UmbrellaThe umbrella is compact at 28cm long and 5cm in diameter. It weighs in at 370g. It includes a velcro tab to keep it closed and a nylon cover which is loose enough to put on easily.The handle has a single button which extends the shaft and unfurls the umbrella near instantly. Pressing the button again collapses the top but you then need to push the shaft down to compress it. The button action is very strong. The canopy has no vents, so its relying on the integral spars to provide the windproofing.The handle is on the small size at less than 6cm long, and has no contoured grip - this is probably only the slight negative. A carrying loop is attached at the base.The umbrella arrives in a plastic drawstring bag. It includes a instruction tag.
