That all depends on the make of the umbrella and the price of it!
Cheap umbrellas do not last long. They are poorly made and may last just two or three uses. (If that)
Fulton Umbrella seem too be one of the best Clear Domed umbrella.
Well made though expensive.
Cheap E Bay umbrellas do not last long and are a waste of time unless you just want too use them once for say photographic props.

Research is the key too see which is the best way too see which is good.

At first I thought you're pertaining to the clear umbrella I usually see in Japan.

I think the comment was for all clear umbrellas?
These appear strong.

The traditional flat clear umbrellas are flimsy and last 1 or 2 uses then rip or do not open or close properly.
You get what you pay for!
