1. fell apart all too soon

   
   By Marron
   

   It started out great. Then the metal "rods" came out of their little plastic seats, first only two them, then all of them. I used this umbrella maybe 20 times. When it worked it was great in the wind, but this short a life expectancy is unacceptable. So I called to have my warranty honored. They said "send it back to us with a check for $10 and we'll either repair it or send you an new one." Gustbuster metro 43-inch automatic umbrella
   
   Well, the umbrella cost me $30 when I got it, so now we're talking about $15 to get the "lifetime warranty" honored. Something is wrong with this picture.

   
   

2. bad grip area

   
   By Patrick Flynn
   

   it's too bad that one design flaw makes this otherwise well-built, strong little umbrella an unpleasant thing too use. The grip area is short, and I could even be okay with that, but just above the grip, where a large hand naturally lands, there's a sharp steel latch. Its function is to lock down the closed umbrella. But it doubles as a stabbing tool. There's almost no way to grip around it, and when the wind is blowing it's sure to painfully poke or scrape your index finger or thumb. Too bad, because the gust defeat design is exceptional. In fact I bought their 48" model afterwards. That non-collapsing design has a smooth U shaped handle, is surprisingly light weight and simply the best umbrella I've ever owned. It doesn't collapse, so getting into cars and stowing it while shopping are inconvenient. Oh well, what are you gonna do?

   
   

3. Know the size

   I was hoping it would wider. It did pass the wind test in downtown Houston TX.

   
   

4. Expected more from this umbrella

   
   By CrazyAboutDeals com
   

   The umbrella itself is ok. I only have two complaints. It's mainly on the handle and the automatic button for the umbrella. I expected the handle to be better made. It looks like it's made out of wood. Water can get into the handle and I didn't expect the handle to be uncomfortable with my small hands. I think the handle is too short. The automatic button opens the umbrella and doesn't automatic closes. I like umbrellas from brookstone better for the price.

   
   

5. Tough Umbrella

   
   By J. Pacho
   

   I like how tough the umbrella is but I thought it would be bigger. Only big enough for me and I am only five feet tall.
