(2 pack) Taylormade Vortexvent Compact Golf Umbrella, 47-inch, Black

I have never owned an umbrella of this quality! Automatic open by pushing a button; push the button to close and it quickly folds the top and you push down to bring it back to its compact size. Quality is top notch-you can actually "feel" that quality throughout the umbrella. As I live Florida, umbrellas are not only for rain, but I always take one when we attend my grandson's soccer games to keep off the sun. The venting at the top of this umbrella totally helps with eliminating some of the heat. The size of the umbrella is perfect for one, a little tight but doable for two people. Handle is comfortable to hold and I appreciate the added wrist strap. This umbrella has also been wind tunnel tested and supposedly defies gusty winds up to 75mph. Seriously love this new umbrella!

This Taylormade umbrella looks like it will do what it says. Now, I live in NC and we get hurricanes so, right now there is no chance of me being able to test the 75mph wind gusts to see if this will stand the test. But, I will be trying it out at the next rain storm we get. I looked at how it was engineered and they put a really strong tether to the underside of the umbrella to prevent inversion. It is also quality made and does not look cheap. The reaction time for the umbrella to open when the button is pressed is probably by far the fastest I have witnessed. It springs to full open in a fraction of a second and it was a little startling. The handle has a comfortable grip and they included a strap to hang it or put on your wrist if needed. It is a smart looking umbrella.
