This umbrella is so lightweight that when the box arrived, I thought they forgot to put the umbrella in there...and it is beautiful. -A nice, bubblegum pink with a gracefully shaped canopy that will definitely brighten up the next rainy day for me.  The release to open the umbrella is unusual and looks like a faux black jewel. The finial on top is very simple and not remarkable at all. The lettering on the umbrella is reflective, it's printed on four panels of the canopy, and it does interfere a little with the parasol-like aesthetics but I am mounting this umbrella on a bicycle so the lettering fits in nicely with that purpose. (I've already tried it out and it works with the bicycle mount [on my son's bike because mine's in the shop. He wasn't thrilled that I made his ride look like it was fit for a princess.])

I am disappointed that there is a tiny dark spot on the fabric of the canopy, centered between two of the ribs. I've tried cleaning it off and it won't budge, but the umbrella is still pretty, overall.

This umbrella isn't for children. The automatic opening feature is fast and powerful so you need to control it when opening near other people. It took me a little bit of figuring out to get the umbrella to latch back into the closed position. It requires a twisting motion at the bottom.

Great price; good product; fast shipping.
