My first thought was "How long till they mold on the inside"

I rarely use the umbrellas I have now and I wouldn't buy those ugly ones.

i missed out on the last ones and am interested to try this new umbrella design. good pricing and they would make great gifts. i dont use umbrellas often either......but we do get a good amount of rain around here at times, so i always like to have one in my car for heavy downpours.

I bought a beautiful, quality umbrella while we were in France.  It's made there and cost about $35.  When I use it, I think of our travels!!

I bought this a while back when it was a TSV before (spring I think).  It's frustrating that they show it as new and no reviews.

It's flimsy.  The little nubs that hold the fabric onto the frame are constantly coming off.  It's a great concept, but poorly executed.

Yeah, that's been their MO for some time now.  An item gets a lot of really bad reviews but it's lucrative to sell, so they change the item number and that removes all the negative reviews.

I've also seen them, in the past, to just keep the item number intact and simply remove the negative reviews.

if you put in "hsn umbrella" into a google search you will see all of the reviews on the umbrella.

368 reviews, 3.4 rating, 59% would recommend.

Oh, I don't own an umbrella.  In 17 years living here in the desert, I've never needed one.

It never rains in the desert?

@GSPgirl  Rarely.  We've been in a drought about 10 years and we get 3-4" of rain a year.  Not worth keeping up with rain gear so I don't bother.
