Falling apart after 2 uses (2010-05-25) Rating: 1/5
I have two complaints about this umbrella. First, it is shown in a blue pattern, yet the one I received from the seller was green and purple. Second, the tips of the umbrella (that hold the fabric to the metal "web") are made of plastic, and are all breaking off. I have only used the umbrella twice, and carry it around in my tote bag. Just normal wear and tear. I've had it about 2 months, and it is no good. That is pretty disappointing from a 30 dollar umbrella. To top it all off, I called Gustbuster (since it has a Gustbuster guarantee) who told me that if I pay to ship it back (at least 10 bucks) with an additional check for $10 they'll fix it or send me a new one. Not much of a guarantee.
Buy one! (2010-05-17) Rating: 5/5
This is a fantastic umbrella. I bought three - tan for myself and paisley for friends.
You'll never go back to ordinary umbrellas (2010-05-16) Rating: 5/5
I have bought Gust Busters for myself and for others as gifts for years. It will make back its higher price many times over since a Gust Buster will NEVER blow inside out and fall apart. Ingenious design releases wind through openings inside the umbrella before it can wreak havoc with the umbrella spokes. Going online to buy one as a present, I had the pleasant surprise of discovering that they were now offering a Gust Buster in this attractive paisley design. I'd get that one for myself next, except that mine will never need replacing!
GustBuster is fantastic (2010-04-16) Rating: 5/5
Fantastic umbrella, substantial feeling, not flimsy.
pretty blue, green look to the paisley.
it comes with a wonderful case that has a sling shoulder strap, very easy to bring along incase it rains.
Affordable price for a functional, durable "grown up" umbrella. I Love it!
