Versa-Brella SPF 50+ Adjustable Umbrella with Universal Clamp

This works perfectly. I mean it's perfect if you're pushing a stroller or if you're pushing a buggy, this is that long shape, it really is amazing, looks beautiful

This is a nice piece of gear. The fabric seems like nice quality (we got the navy colored one). The neck of the umbrella has three different "joints" where you can adjust angle, which come in very handy to fine tune your shade. The clamp seems well made. We have to use a flat chair arm (no tubing to clamp to), but even so, it's gripping well. It also seems truly water repellent, so rain doesn't drop through it. The sliding mechanism up inside the umbrella is nicely designed, locking in open position with a satisfying little "snap," but collapsing back down very easily when you want to close it. There's a velcro strap that can be used to bind the umbrella to the pole when not in use, but we find it's quicker and easier to just pull the nice, provided nylon cover down over the closed umbrella (which essentially accomplishes the same thing). I bought it for my wife, who really likes it. So, all aces!

If you've read the other reviews, then nothing will surprise you with this umbrella. The various points of articulation work pretty well, although some are stickier than others (and simply require some wiggling during adjustment). There is that clamp problem where there's a metal nut that can come out if you loosen the clamp almost all the way. The superglue fix others have described here is easy, but you have to do it BEFORE you lose the nut. Just make sure you don't accidentally glue your clamp into a static position. As for the umbrella as an umbrella, it has made the beach much more bearable. I originally got it because I'm pregnant and right now my skin is too sensitive to handle the sun exposure I would normally be fine with. I've taken this umbrella to the beach multiple times, and it's great. It clamps right to the back of my chair and is easily adjustable as the sun moves, or if you move your chair. I also clamped it to my deck railing to create some shade while my husband was grilling this summer, and that worked pretty well. It doesn't cover a huge area, but if you're in one spot, it'll do. Mild winds don't faze the umbrella. In moderate winds or with gusts, you need to be aware of wind direction so you don't accidentally create a sail out of your umbrella. As with any umbrella, it will catch in a stiff breeze. The Sport-Brella never threatened to break or invert, but the strongest beach winds did cause it to shift/slide from its clamped position. Basically, this thing isn't wind-proof, so don't expect it to be. I imagine that I will continue to use this at the beach in the future, since it does wonders for not getting too hot (or getting burnt after forgetting to reapply sunscreen, which I've done several times). I also like that the clamp is so versatile, since it can attach to other chairs, a stroller, or a deck railing. I can only imagine how useful it will be if I'm taking my impending kid somewhere in a stroller and there's strong sun or some rain. Being able to protect yourself without taking up your hands is clutch. Definitely glad I made this purchase.

This sun umbrella has been very useful on our last cruise. I love the color, it is very nautical blue. It is adjustable and you can attach it very easy to your lounge chair, hubby was worried that it would not fit on our luggage bag, but it did fit on our big suitcase. We took two one for me and one for him. We received lots of compliments, we were asked where we got them. Not heavy at all, super light. Yes it can take some light wind, worth every penny!!

I started with the smaller version of the Sport-Brella a few years ago, and it served me well for quick trips to the park or a casual beach day. But recently, I decided to upgrade to the larger size, and wow, I didn’t realize how much I needed that extra shade until now. 1. PERFECT FOR THE PALE CREW: As someone who practically lives in sunscreen (yes, I’m the person who looks like Casper the Friendly Ghost on the beach), having reliable, portable shade is non-negotiable. This bigger version gives me more coverage, which means I don’t have to keep moving around to stay in the shade—it’s a total game-changer for sunny days. 2. PORTABILITY THAT MAKES SENSE: Even with the bigger size, it’s still easy to fold up and carry. It doesn’t take up a lot of space, and the universal clamp makes it super versatile. I’ve attached it to chairs, coolers, and even my patio railing for extra shade. 3. SMALL QUIRKS, BIG BENEFITS: Let’s be real—no product is perfect. The larger size means it’s a bit more wobbly in the wind, and if sand or moisture gets into the rotating mechanism, it can get stuck (pro tip: shake it off and dry it out after a beach day). But honestly, those little hiccups don’t outweigh how much this thing improves my outdoor experiences. 4. A SHADE WORTH SHARING: I’ve even lent it to friends at outdoor events, and they always ask where to get one. It’s one of those products that makes you feel a little more prepared and comfortable when you’re outside for hours. FINAL THOUGHTS: Upgrading to the bigger Sport-Brella Versa-Brella has been such a win for me. More shade, more comfort, and still super easy to use. Whether you’re at the beach, camping, or just chilling in your backyard, this is the portable shade you didn’t know you needed—until you try it!

This umbrella is super dupe durable and useful. clipping to a wheelchair , stadium chair, anywhere, never had any issues with it. very sturdy as well. i will surely buy more of these. my mom loves it too. its so easy to turn from left to right to block the sun without taking it off from the set handle. Now i know why the umbrella is shaped as it was, to avoid flipping when there's strong wind.

Giving this one as a gift, we already have four from this company for every family beach chair. These umbrellas move in every way possible to block the sun, clamp on to almost anything, are lightweight and really hold up. Have even used it on a stroller in the rain. The carry case it comes in is roomy and designed to make it easy to slide the umbrella right in, plus it has a nice side strap for transport. This is one of the best designed products I’ve ever bought.

My son is on a competitive soccer team in Florida and this umbrella has shielded me and my baby from the hot sun and rainy season!
