 Poncho August 10, 2010

I bought these for a trip to Alaska but never had them out of the package. Will save them for another rainy day.
 just don't get caught in the rain April 13, 2010

After the rain your shoulders will be dry and your hair sopping wet.
This is absolutely a disaster if there is the slightest breeze. The head covering needs to be held to keep it from sliding off.
A dry cleaner bag would do a better job and be less expensive.
 Good ponchos, 1/8 slightly defective. June 2, 2009

The forecast for my trip to Walt Disney World called for rain and thunderstorms so I bought some emergency ponchos. When I first arrived I felt dumb because I saw all these people wearing Disney Ponchos and I thought at first I wasted my money, but actually turns out these emergency ponchos are pretty awesome.
They are extremely light and small to carry around before you take them out of their packaging. So they don't take up much space before you need them. Also they are extremely cheap (I bought 8 for 99 cents each) so they are disposable, which is nice. You use it for a day (if you even need it) then at the end of the day rather than drying it out or trying to re-pack it, you just toss it and carry around a new package the next day (if you need it). Also I was worried at first these ponchos would be small. I'm 5'9 and 220 lbs. It fit fine, and even over myself AND my camelbak. Also as a poncho, it works. it keeps you dry and the hood is nice.
Here's my only negatives with these ponchos. The hood isn't nice though when it's windy because it doesn't stay on your head. maybe wearing a baseball cap would help. Also the ponchos are extremely thin like paper thin. So although it keeps you dry, if the rain is cold, you're going to feel cold and wet, even though you're not actually getting wet. And lastly one of my eight ponchos the sleeve opening basically was open all the way to the bottom. So I had to tie the poncho at the end so it wouldn't blow completely open.
Anyway considering I paid about $12-13 after shipping for 8 disposable ponchos as opposed to the $10-15 for a poncho I'd have to hang dry every night and figure out how to repack every morning. I think it was money well spent. I actually ended up with a few extras from our trip which stores nicely in my car's glove compartment for true emergencies.

I picked up a couple of these for a recent trip to Central America. They were easy to pack and didn't take up a lot of room. They're easy to carry along, in a purse or pocket, not matter where you are going.
These are cheap plastic. They are meant to be disposed of after wearing. I would not recommend this product for somebody who is in need of a good poncho again and again. Instead, you should look into something a bit thicker. If you're planning a trip where you aren't sure you'll need rain protection and want something small that will help you stay dry, these will work great.

Bought two of these and two children ones for a trip to Disney World. They didn't take up much room in the bag we took to the park and they kept us nice and dry on the second day when it rained. After they dried out I even folded them back up and put them back in the bags. Took up a little more room when they were refolded but not much and defiantly better then having to carry around rain coats.
