   This umbrella does not provide 62 inches of coverage as the advertisement
   
   leads you to believe. The 62 inches are across the crown not the width. I
   
   called about the first one I received and complained that the coverage was only about 48 inches, not 62. The customer service rep. told me the 48 wide was shipped in error and he would indeed ship me one that covered 62 inches.The replacement he sent was exactly like the first one, about 48 inches of coverage,not 62. This is a good umbrella, but I can buy almost the identical umbrella locally for $12.00 and no shipping charge.
   
   I am returning one of the umbrellas,however I am less than satisfied about the whole deal.I feel that if you are gong to advertise a 62 inch umbrella it should cover 62 inches.I really didn’t need another 48 inch umbrella as I have four or five lying around. I wanted the additional coverage for a specific purpose. James Barber 103 Windy Lake Cove,Vicksburg,Ms 39183

   OK so I haven’t actually used this umbrella yet. It is HUGE and my compact, purse size one has been much more handy so far. However, some day I’ll use it and I have high expectations. It seems very sturdy and large enough for 2, maybe 3 people to huddle under.

   One thing that I found distinctive about this umbrella is its strong odor. Seriously, I put the thing in the backseat of my car and my car smelled of new car all over again.

   This was a great deal. It is very sturdy, very big, and nice to have on a rainy day. It was a lot less expensive than other smaller umbrellas that were being sold. The only downside I have noticed with this umbrella is the hand grip. The hand grip is made out of some kind of a rubber that has a strange odor. It does not really smell bad, but it is weird and will make your hand smell like the rubber when you use the umbrella. The smell has definitely faded in the few weeks I have had it so I suspect that it will fade completely in time. But in my opinion, it is worth having an odd smelling hand on rainy days for a few weeks for the money you save buying this product.

   It’s a decent enough umbrella. Nice and big. However it doesn’t telescope and the whole thing reeks of rubber/polymers and will make your hands and other things smell. You can leave it outside on a balcony to air out, but it won’t do much.

   Very sturdy umberella. Great price. Have used it a few times in the windy weather and it has stood up. Also can have another person under with you if needed.
