The product, in the report: Ladybug Umbrella Red/Black by Babalu - child size umbrella made to look like a ladybug.
The products is the Ladybug Umbrella Red/Black by Babalu. I bought this for my niece for her 5th birthday. Within 2 seconds of her opening this umbrella my 4 yr. old nephew had pull the plastic handle off exposing sharp pointy metal. Upon opening the umbrella for the 2nd time the plastic pieces holding the metal wires of the umbrella canopy came off exposing more sharp pointy metal which could easily put someone’s eye out! This umbrella is made to look like a lady bug and is clearly marketed for children! I cannot believe the poor, unsafe quality of this product! Luckily no one was hurt, because we took the umbrella away!
