I’m considering joining the umbrella club. For those who have them, do you have a reflective one or not, and do you feel there’s a worthwhile difference between the two if the primary goal is sun protection? I notice the reflective ones tend to weigh more. I’m currently split between this reflective one from HMG and this super light one from Montbell. I did come across this article which claims there’s no difference, but I would like to hear about more people’s experiences. Thoughts on either of these or another umbrella you love would be super helpful.
