Good size umbrella, yet folds up nice & compact for my back pack. Cover included. Auto open/shut was a must, and it works beautifully. Haven't been in any strong winds, so not sure how it would hold up in those conditions. But so far, I'm very pleased. I would definitely recommend this product.

Update: I was out walking in a little rain. Wind came up. I could see how the umbrella might not hold up in a strong wind.
