Comments about SKY UMBRELLA:

This is my favorite umbrella! Very classic-looking on the outside... only when you open it, you're looking up at a sunny sky. Every time it rains I actually feel a little excited about using this.

I think mine is elegantly constructed out of good materials. The handle is wood, and there's a metal tip. It won't stand heavy bashing and tsunami winds, but it's not just a flimsy novelty item either. A keeper for me. :)

Comments about SKY UMBRELLA:

I actually expected it to be of better quality. Originally I was planning on purchasing 10 of these umbrellas and giving them away as gifts . . but once I got my own I didn't feel the quality was quite there. What may be my own 'fault' on this is that it is a very light umbrella . . which, for me, feels a touch shoddy. Because if you have 'real' wood and 'real' brass then it should feel more substantial - and it doesn't. It is cute, in that the clouds on the inside make it a fun umbrella.

Comments about SKY UMBRELLA:

I love this umbrella...It is big, not like one of those cheap fold away umbrellas this one has some bulk to it but is not heavy at all you could fit two people under this thing, comfortably...I love the blue sky, it is like everyone else is getting rained on but the sky is clear for me and it looks great with any outfit and in any weather. A great gift for yourself or any friend.

Great product.

The product arrived in a box that could easily house 30-40 umbrellas. It made for a good laugh, but was extremely annoying to discard the box.
