3 and 3
This umbrella is for you if. . .
1) You need a sturdy umbrella. I put my umbrellas through a lot (crushed in my bag, hitting stuff while closed and on the side of my bag, etc.) and this umbrella has not broken yet.
2) You need to open with one hand. It is so convenient to pull out the umbrella from your backpack side pocket, and open it up with one hand, by pressing the button. Closing is a little harder, as you need to push it down, but you're probably out of the rain by then.
3) It's a perfect size. It's definitely small enough to fit in a backpack but large enough to give you good coverage when open.
But this might not be for you if. . .
1) You need a really compact umbrella. This might not fit into (or take too much space in) smaller purses or suitcases.
2) You only have one hand to close it. The button will collapse the umbrella, but you will need to push it down to get it compact. This can be annoying on buses or if you're other hand is full with groceries, shopping bags, etc
3) Still not great during windy days. While it is stronger than most umbrellas, it does nothing to cut down on wind like some other umbrellas. Hold on to it tight, as it tried to fly out of my hands a few times.
