I love this umbrella. It gives a great amount of coverage without being too big. I live in Texas so the sun can get pretty scorching. It's easy to open and close and the hook handle is both pretty and functional in carrying it. Like other reviews have mentioned, the handle does start peeling but it shouldn't bother you if you're not into aesthetics as much. Besides, the only person likely to notice is you! I also have the small compact Coolibar umbrella and this one withstands strong winds much much better. I still kept the small one to carry in my purse for when I have an unexpected outdoor adventure and I dont have this one with me (usually walking to lunch from work rather than driving). I also get a lot of questions and compliments on this umbrella. Everyone is always asking me where I got it from.
My only gripe, with any personal sun umbrella really, is not enough side coverage in morning and late afternoons, no matter how much you tilt the umbrella. I try to keep every part of my body under the canopy because even with sun protective clothes, the Texas sun can still scorch! Being under a canopy or within any shadow really, helps keeps me a lot cooler because the sun isn't touching and warming something next to my skin.

Sun light and wind resistant
This umbrella is amazing. I live in North County, San Diego, CA where the Sun raises literally burn your skin. I use this on my 2 mile walks, twice a day, at work and it does exactly what it's supposed to. It blocks the raises so well, all I feel is the nice breeze. The color is definitely duck tape looking, but it makes sense for it's reflecting qualities. It has also been very windy here lately and the umbrella does not budge. When looking inside to see how it holds, the design is very sturdy, I'm very impressed

The coverage isn't great if you are taller and wider than a kid
