The details
During travel, you want to pack light, and having an ultra-light umbrella makes the process easier. The Lanbrella windproof umbrella is one such example. Its folding mechanism makes it easy to pack it in your briefcase, backpack, and travel bag, along with other travel items.
Construction
With up to eight reinforced fiberglass ribs, the umbrella can withstand the strongest winds without folding. The ribs can bend up to 180 degrees without snapping, keeping the umbrella very sturdy. What’s more, the canopy has a waterproof rating of 210T to keep you dry during a heavy downpour.
Opening mechanism
The umbrella has an easy opening and closing mechanism that allows you to operate with only one hand. Even with your hands full, a simple press of a button should get the umbrella open. However, we found it rather difficult to close. While the button helps collapse the fabric, you may need to close the stem using both hands.
Portability
Lanbrella equips this umbrella with an elbow or inside-out design that keeps it compact despite its wide 46-inch arc. After closing it, the wet part becomes the inside of the umbrella, preventing water from dripping.
Value for money
By comparison, Lanbrella’s travel umbrella is superior to the likes of Repel Windproof umbrella. Its high-quality construction, ability to pack compact, and UV protection give you great value for your monies. As a bonus, the umbrella comes with a 100-day money-back warranty to ensure you get the best service.
Final verdict
The umbrella isn’t just great for travel but for daily use too. It easily replaces a large, cumbersome umbrella. Its compact build makes it easy to store, and its ability to protect against UV rays and withstand strong winds is a bonus.
