The umbrella looks classy and the quality is impeccable. I adore the carrying case which was the reason for me to order this item in the first place. The umbrella's size however is enormous therefore I didn't keep it. If this ever were offered in a smaller size I'd repurchase in a heartbeat.
Excellent and sturdy. It's a little heavier than the dollar store ones because it is built to last.
Love this company! Quality products and a lifetime warranty that I have successfully used.
I haven’t used it for a long to be honest but my first impression is very positive: the construction is very sturdy, design is unique and efficient, materials are top notch and overall the umbrella is very well made! Additionally, I’m proud it is designed, engineered and made in USA (at least partially) - that’s a big deal for me as American!
I've only begun to use my new Auto Open Jumbo Compact Umbrella but it held up without a problem during two heavy rainy and windy days. I love my new umbrella!
simply an excellent umbrella with a warranty like none other
The Stratus Chrome Compact 44” Arc Manual umbrella is simply an outstanding product. Every aspect of it is well made, solid, and stands up well to wind and, of course, rain. Great product overall that I imagine will last for years to come.
Bought this umbrella for a Scotland trip and put it in use on a 20mph windy, rainy afternoon. It performed just as expected. Kept the rain and wind off of me as I walked the course. Had to fold it down and lay on ground to hit shots, then open again to walk. I rolled it up in the sleeve soaking wet, attached to my bag, and used it again in a few days and it was good as new.
I was the only one in my foursome brave enough to use an umbrella.
Would definitely recommend if need a robust umbrella for tough conditions.
I absolutely LOVE this umbrella! I had done prior research to what I needed in an umbrella, and this checked off all the boxes! It is so lightweight and quality is great. I have gotten so many compliments also. If you are thinking of purchasing, I 100% recommend!
This beauty of an umbrella arrived right before a trip to Arizona where temps were 104-116. When we arrived, I was so glad I got one with UPF 50 because Scottsdale can feel like the surface of the sun sometimes, but the umbrella blocked so much. I will never go on vacation without this umbrella - it'll keep me covered on the rainiest or sunniest days.
This is the prettiest umbrella ever made! Little girls will gasp. I believe it must be made of the wings of Pegasus. It brightens the dull-grey rain soaked day. Praying for rain! Extremely strong. Durably holds up in all stormy weather.
I am in love with this umbrella. Super solid, and heavy, and I need all colors.
This is a great umbrella! I've only used it a few times so far, but literally within two minutes of leaving the house I got a compliment on it from a stranger. It seems sturdy and good quality.
Fabulous, beautiful umbrella that operates so easily! LOVE IT!
Shed Rain umbrellas really are the best! And the company stands behind their products. They replaced the first one I bought when it had a problem. I lost the second one — still wish I could find its pattern again! So while my latest purchase is not as cheerful in design, it’s still the best umbrella to own!
Small, light, constructed to last.
Thanks, ShedRain!!
I bought one of the sky-and-clouds about 6 years ago because I had to park about a 1/2 mile from work and walk in, no matter the temp or weather. This was in Kansas winds and thunderstorms. I was the envy of everyone because I didn't get wet getting out of my car and the wind was no problem for it.
At my new lovely job, I just loaned it to the Prez of the company for a rainy lunch and she loved it and wants her own.
I've never had an umbrella last so long and still look brand new.
Love the umbrella.Great design and color combination.Easy to open and close.Great canopy and protection from rain and wind.
