Lifetime Warranty

Whose lifetime?

The new umbrella that I purchased on May 23 (see my entry on that date) has failed.

It was raining pitchforks and sawlogs today, but fortunately I had my new umbrella with me. Unfortunately, it will not stay open. The mechanism that holds the umbrella open has failed. Once open, it collapses immediately, no wind required. It lasted a total of 13 days. Go figure.

My new theory about umbrellas is that you get what you pay for.
