This is a folding parasol. I've used it for about two years. The umbrella itself has some blackening at the folds, as shown in the fourth photo, but there are no noticeable stains. The carrying case has stains and blackening as shown in photos 9-12, and the dirt is somewhat noticeable. The umbrella functions perfectly. As I mentioned earlier, there are stains on the carrying case, so please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a perfect item. Color: White系 (White-based) Stains/Tears/Smell: Yes
