Bought this for my 3-year-old daughter, who loves using umbrellas but was struggling with the adult-size ones.  We just got it today so I can't say how durable it is, but it came in perfect condition (I know some other reviewers said there's came broken.  Didn't have that problem).  It opens and closes easily and is the perfect size for little hands.  Really cute. Looking forward to the next rain!
