Repel Windproof Travel Umbrella review

The Repel Windproof Travel Umbrella costs $39.99, and it sells in a 2-pack for $59.99, which suits families or anyone who wants one in the car and one in the suitcase. Repel says most small umbrellas use 6 or 8 aluminum ribs, while this one uses 9 resin-reinforced fiberglass ribs that flex in strong gusts rather than flipping. The shaft is a three-fold chrome plated metal design, the canopy uses Teflon for water repellency, and the grip is rubberized with a wrist strap. A protective travel sleeve comes in the box. Repel lists a lifetime warranty and a 30-day money back guarantee, and says it will send a new umbrella if you are unhappy. What holds it back from first place is missing data: Repel does not publish a tested wind speed, a UPF rating, or the closed length and weight in the product description we read. We compared documented features and published prices and did not test the umbrella.
