GustBuster Pro Series Gold 62-Inch Windproof Golf Umbrella - Premium UV Protection for Golfers, Outdoor Sports & Rainy Day Commutes

I don't play golf, but that didn't stop me from picking this umbrella up, as I was sick and tired of cheap 99 cent store umbrellas that would break so easily.This umbrella is indeed huge, but since I carry a laptop backpack with me almost everywhere I go, I wanted something that would keep it dry during the rain, even though the backpack is water resistant.I've been outside in rainstorms with this and it just laughs at the rain and wind. I see other people's umbrellas buckle under storm gusts, even flipping inside out, and yet this thing, with its amazing flap system, stays intact, and I just hear the wind rustle through the flaps.My only complaints are that the handle isn't as comfortable as it could be, and since it's a 62-inch umbrella, it's very tall, and can't fit in a backpack like a mini-umbrella.Otherwise, I love this thing, and its lifetime warranty, and I should've bought this sooner. Well worth the extra upfront cost to save in the long-run, and I won't be smashing any umbrellas against the side of a highway overpass in the rain after it keeps inverting due to high winds. (yes, this happened to me, and yes, drivers started looking at me strangely)UPDATE: After about two years, my umbrella broke. I was able to send it back to GustBuster, along with a check for $10, and got a replacement shipped back to me. The annoying part was finding a mailing tube large enough however, the USPS' longest mailing tube was about two inches shy of being able to fit this umbrella into it.
