Eagle Creek Nimbus SL Travel Umbrella

inadequate for the price
January 04, 2012

small, compact, lightweight...bought for wife to keep in purse. Smaller coverage than expected (about the size of one of those umbrella hats!). Looks like a light gust of wind will fold up this umbrella. No better in quality than a drug store $10.00 job. If it wasn't a gift I would send back for a refund.

Cheap and Flimsy

Small and Light, but really ends there. Not sure if this was shipped broken, but upon opening this umbrella the top knob flew off where the umbrella material attaches to the skeleton. Makes it a bit useless as water seep through the top. Pretty much a waste and not worth paying to return.

smallest; lightest, most durable

I've gone through so many small umbrellas. One good wind and they're finished. The Eagle Creek Nimbus is not only sturdier than the rest, it's also the smallest and lightest one I've ever owned. I travel a lot and weight is very important. This is really only 3.5oz.
