Most likely the best non-household need I have ever purchased. Enjoyed the extra size last Winter & Spring when wet. Enjoying twice as much this hot summer. Vent let heat flow up & out. Keeping me cooler
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.
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.
Well I ain't no golfer but I do understand the need for umbrellas normally, but why would you spend $80 on an umbrella, the only reason I found this was because of a French assignment where I need a certain amount of items to reach a total of between $950 to $1000 I did the math and if I only did $80 items I could get a perfect number and this... this was just silly to me, an $80 umbrella, just get one from Walmart. Although, I will not leave a bad star review because it would be uncalled for considering I do not truly understand the point around it and I am sure it is a great product for what it is meant for.

I filled out a claim six weeks ago and I still haven’t heard a single thing back from this company. I gave it two stars because it only worked for two weeks. I must have bought a lemon.
I always dried it out if possible but sometimes it wasn't. I am disappointed that the struts rusted after one CA rainy season, staining the fabric, and broke after two. I enjoyed the size and convenience but... sadly, can't recommend/
