Hero Travel SupplyHERO Travel Umbrella – Windproof, Compact and Portable

Very sturdy, handsome, great outer case, easy pop up and easy close! Great size!! Reinforced to prevent wind damage!! Best umbrella I have ever had!! And a family owned company

We bought this umbrella for a trip and luckily did not need to use it. However, it is compact and attractive and appears to be extremely sturdy. It's a bit heavy (noticed more as we were adding it to our suitcase), but we are happy to have it for everyday use in rainy weather. I think it's a very good purchase and would recommend.

This is a great functioning umbrella, I'm very pleased with my purchase and will be using this wherever I can. It has a well built semi-hard case to carry the umbrella in which makes it easy to store and travel with. It's lightweight and the umbrella covers a broad area - opening and closing it is very easy, one button to open it and it has no prongs to push in to collapse the umbrella. Thanks for the great product.Update to my review: I noticed some other reviewers complaining about the weight of this umbrella so I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents. The Hero umbrella weighs less than 1 pound, but has a very healthy coverage so that you won't get wet. Whereas other travel umbrellas I've used might be 1 or 2 oz lighter in weight, they are WAY smaller in coverage so I got wet while using them. Also, the other ones usually use cheap (less sturdy) materials that will more easily break in the wind.TL;DR: If you want a travel umbrella that actually keeps you dry and won't break in the wind then this is the one to get.

Overall, I really like this umbrella. It seems quite sturdy and the extra carrying case is handy as it can be clipped onto backpacks, for example. However, it was bigger than I expected for being a "travel" umbrella. When I got it, it was slightly larger and slightly heavier than my current small umbrella (which I was hoping to find something smaller for travel) but it does have better coverage. I was surprised it isn't vented since it says it's windproof and the venting usually helps with wind; I didn't have any issues with wind, though, so IDK how easy it is to handle/manage if it does kick up significantly. Overall, a decent purchase and it got me through some rainy days on my trip.

Sturdy and compact.

Heavy duty, just like I wanted.

This umbrella is well made and exceptionally packaged- it is however large and heavy. Larger and heavier than I expected a travel umbrella to be.

I bought this umbrella to take to Germany. It is a little bit larger than I expected, but I love the case that it came with, and it also has a sleeve that the umbrella goes into which works if you don’t think you need the case everything works great on it and it was a fantastic purchase. Saved my butt a few times in a rain storm.
