I bought it because I heard it can be used as an umbrella. The umbrella function seems to be a bit weak. Hello, customer. Thank you for your valuable review. :) Since the parasol is the main product, it seems to be a bit weaker as an umbrella than expected. Although we also have some regrets, we think we should take your words into consideration and work hard to introduce better products. As the weather changes frequently these days, please pay more attention to managing your condition, and we ask for your continued interest and support for our GVG STORE in the future. Thank you very much for your order, thank you! :)
