This umbrella is really pretty and it looks just as shown on the Amazon website. The open/close button is good and responsive, and bringing the umbrella down to reset it is not too hard. The reason I said "not too hard" is that I currently have shoulder cup tendonitis and I never realized how tough it was in resetting an open/close button when the shoulder aches. I ordered new open/close umbrellas because my current one was really hard and painful to reset. So, I am very pleased with this umbrella.
