Buying an annual umbrella or two has become tiresome and, well, wasteful. I don't live in a particularly windy climate and our winter rains are no match to those of the north eastern coast states, however I do want and need an umbrella that will last more than a single winter season....and, it seems I've found that umbrella. The photograph here does not show the "double canopy" clearly - basically the top "row" is a second layer of fabric atop the base of the entire umbrella, a sort of "vent" that seems to allow the umbrella enough "give" so as not to invert itself and be rendered useless/inverted. I was surprised at the size of this umbrella canopy - mostly because I didn't bother to measure out the size before I purchased it because I knew I wanted a "bigger than standard" canopy. When the umbrella arrived (I had it delivered to my work place) it became the topic of lunchtime chatter - mostly along the lines of "wow, three or four people can stand under it without huddling into one mass of humanity" :)
The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five stars is because this thing is heavy - heavy compared to the "regular" auto-stick type umbrellas and just a bit too heavy for me to consider it ideal. However, the "heavy factor" is what creates the sturdiness (and when retracted and in the sleeve it would make for an impressive defensive whack!). The weight and size aren't conducive to just tossing in one's handbag, but it would do well in a larger tote or backpack-type bag. I have no regrets and look forward to using this umbrella for many years.
