Coolibar UPF 50+ 42 Inch Sodalis Travel Umbrella - Sun Protective

Kept me cool in the Ca sunshine!

Love this umbrella!!! Well constructed and light weight!! I have lupus and need to avoid the sun as the UVA and UVB rays make me sick... Its just the right size. Not too big and not too small... And now I dont have to wear a hat and have hat hair all the time!!! I put a carabiner clip on my purse to attach the umbrella to when I am not using it so I dont forget it somewhere... That would be an expensive oops!!!

This product has an unusually short handle, which makes it very awkward and uncomfortable to hold. You need to hold your arm in an 90° angle which begins to cramp after a while. Its also very difficult to close.

So Ive been using UV- umbrellas since 2007 and this is definitely a great sun umbrella. I took two of these to Spain and Portugal in the middle of the 2019 summer heat wave (90-103 F anywhere we went) and because of these, we were able to enjoy what we were seeing without dying of heat exhaustion. In Portugal, my brother in law and sister made fun of me for using it....until they got under it and felt the difference in temperature. After that, it was more whered you get that again?? So yes, definitely provides great protection. My only issue that one of the umbrellas already has a few worn spots/holes after two weeks of use.

Smaller than what I thought. Feels light weight at flimsy but works amazingly well at keeping the heat off of you.

This is a great umbrella for sun protection. It does a good job of keeping you cool. However, I wanted a light umbrella and the weight in the description is inaccurate so its a bit heavy to carry on my morning walk in addition to a water bottle. On my kitchen scale the weight reads 1 lb 8 oz.

I THOUGHT I LOVED THE QUALITY & COLOR OF THIS UMBRELLA. WRONG IT JUST FOLDED OVER OUT OF NO WHERE REALLY WANTED IT BUT OVIOUSLY IT REALLY ISNT STURDY AND THE PRICE IS JUST RIDICULOUS. I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS A SIGN FOR GOOD QUALITY-DONT BE FOOLED-DONT TOUCH IT.....

The only choice when you need an umbrella to block the sun. They really work and I actually found myself chilly when walking underneath this umbrella in May in Central Florida. As a skin cancer survivor I keep this with me all the time when I am out in the sun and it conveniently fits in my purse or bag when I no longer need it. It is worth the money!

I liked it while it lasted but unfortunately the umbrella did not last a year. Purchased 5/2021 and broke 4/2022. Disappointed, especially for the price point!! Wouldn’t recommend to a friend.

I replaced my umbrella because I left mine for my mother to use in Costa Rica. I ordered this one so that it would be waiting for me when I returned.
