Lejorain Compact Golf Umbrella Large - 54inch Travel Big Portable Automatic Folding Umbrella Windproof for Men Heavy Duty 210T Dupont Teflon Coated Umbrella for Rain

Subject: Lejorain folding 54" umbrella. The umbrella is about as heavy as I expected, near the limit of what I'd comfortably tote around by hand on my 2 to 3 mile dog walks. Any heavier and I'd be looking for a way to strap it onto my back or carrying it in my backpack. In any case, I was forewarned that it would be heavy by researching the customer review comments. I measured it at 48" diameter from outer tip to outer tip. It's very big for one person and comfortably accommodates a second person. When fully extended, the shaft measured 30-1/2" long. Considerably shorter than the manufacturer's description of 37". However, I had been worried that 37" might be a little too long. So, I was happy that it was shorter. For me, 30" is about the perfect length for a compact, collapsible umbrella to be able to extend to. It has 8 ribs, I would have preferred 10 ribs, but it is what it is. Not a dealbreaker. And again, I was forewarned before making the purchase about this detail. I was also cautioned about operating the umbrella. It's spring is very strong. I was warned to careful control the release of umbrella when pressing the trigger mechanism. I was warned that compressing the umbrella back to its original compact form would take a fair degree of effort. Both of these admonitions proved to be true. The umbrella has no wind vents, so its "windproof" claims is solely based on its heavy duty construction and not any specific design element. I haven't been challenged by winds yet. However, the umbrella is robustly constructed and I'm confident that it can withstand at least moderate winds. Not sure whether it can handle any gale force winds. I chose the dark blue with ivory trim color pattern. I find it to be a very attractive umbrella. The wood handle, shiny chrome features, and "Lejorain" embossed button add to its charm. The wrist strap adds a nice, utilitarian touch. Overall, I am very pleased with the purchase. 5 stars. P.S. 1. Weighed on my kitchen scale, the umbrella came in at 1 lbs. 5 oz. 2. Regarding another reviewer's comment about the umbrella shaft needing to be re-designed and strengthened, I examined my shaft and found no structural flaws. It doesn't shake or rattle any more than I'd expect from a compound shaft. It appears to be well-built. For me, it is perfectly adequate. 3. Regarding another reviewer's comment regarding the automatic closure feature. For me, it's easier to simply close the umbrella the old-fashioned way rather than go through the two step process of (1) pressing the button to collapse the umbrella and (2) compressing the umbrella back to its original form. IMO, the automatic closure is a novelty feature. It's "cool" to have the umbrella collapse with a click of the button, but it doesn't actually save you any effort.

Huge umbrella! Lasted a pretty long time before breaking!

I've had this product a little under a year and it's fine. As other users have noted, it is hard to close, I can't do it one handed, and it is heavy. That said, it's been a good umbrella this past year I've had it. However it did flip during a heavy/windy storm last week (that was my fault, I was carrying too much and didn't keep track of the wind direction) and 3 of the spokes snapped when it flipped back and it's permanently broken so I need to replace it. I've never had one snap like that on the first flip though which was a bummer. Moral of the story: just like with any umbrella, don't let it flip in heavy wind......

Well made. Love the color. I won't be missed at night.

Purchased these for my wife during the Black Friday deals and she really adores them. She's around 5'7" tall and as you can see from the images, the coverage is ideal for her. The turquoise and cream color mix is stunning and the umbrella feels quite robust. Actually, it has a decent weight to it! It's not light and flimsy like others! We'll see if it stands the test of time. I'll certainly provide an update if anything snaps or breaks soon.

Supero mis espectativas es muy elegante muy. Funcional. En su diseño. El precio fue. Bastante bueno. Y de gran tamaño. Compraré más unidades. Para mi familia.

Junk, just used 1st. time, got 4 of these in different colors. No wind, just light rain, about 15 mins. of use it snapped and collapsed, string hanging out of underneath top folding parts. Less than 5 minutes later the 2nd one, being used by another person did the same thing. I will try the other 2 tomorrow, not expecting good results. Can't return because it's over 30 days, been approximately 45 days since purchase. Never buy another item from them

This is a pretty nice umbrella for the money. It fits in a backpack when closed which I like. No more setting it down and accidentally forgetting. It provides enough coverage for two people and is OK in light wind. The handle is comfortable and is easy to open. Would purchase again.
