Hard or impossible to open, low quality
I ordered two purse-size umbrellas from Braden and Lane. They came so tightly packed in the package that I slit the corded handle attachment of one umbrella when I opened the plastic mail package at the top. Then I struggled to get either umbrella open. The best you could say of the product is that it's lightweight. I was able, with much difficulty to open one umbrella. The other wouldn't even open. These would be useless in a sudden downpour. Do not buy!
